The Guardian - S3-E4

Trivia: Wade makes fun of Max for going to an opera he's seen before. Max responds that her generation thinks nothing of seeing Indiana Jones 13 times. John Rhys-Davies, who played Max, starred in the first and third Indiana Jones films.

Stoker - S3-E24

Trivia: The name of the vampires' band is "Stoker", also the title of the episode. This is a reference to Bram Stoker who wrote "Dracula." Several characters in the show are named after characters in "Dracula", such as Renfield, Harker, and Van Elsinger (a play on Van Helsing). When Quinn mentions the vampire Dracula to Van Elsinger, he says he's never heard of him.

The Last Of Eden - S3-E20

Trivia: This episode was filmed prior to John Rhys-Davies leaving the show. But it ended up being aired after "The Exodus", where Rhys-Davies' character is killed off. So they added the short intro scene with Wade and Rembrandt reflecting on a past slide to the underground world, making this a flashback episode.

Dead Man Sliding - S3-E10

Stupidity: And the end, after sliding to another world, the group is caught on film by someone in her house. Quinn goes (illegally) into the home to get the tape. There is no point to this. Throughout the series, many people have seen them arrive, or leave, and usually when there's a mix up with one of their doubles, they spend so much time trying to convince people they are in fact from another world but can't prove it. Quinn doesn't even bother to see how long they're going to be on that world first.

The Prince Of Slides - S3-E9

Continuity mistake: When Quinn has the real Duke's sword, he's pointing it towards the Duke. When the Duke tells his story, Quinn is dropping the sword down to his side. In the next shot it's back up pointing at the Duke.

The Weaker Sex - S1-E8

Trivia: After the assassination attempt, Wade remarks "of course it was a man, when did you ever hear of a female assassin?" While she was being snarky, as a point of trivia, at the time (1995) of the last 3 presidential assassination attempts, 2 were by women. In 1975, Sara Jane Moore shot at President Gerald Ford while he was in San Fransisco (which incidentally is where the show was set). "Squeaky" Fromme also attempted to assassinate President Ford in 1975, but her gun never fired.

The Good, The Bad, And The Wealthy - S2-E4

Other mistake: When Rembrandt is playing poker for the first time, the guy across from him says he'll call (and then he raises). So Rembrandt folds (even though he had a full house) because that's what Priscilla told him to do. But Rembrandt was supposed to just ante and fold until Cliff got there. But because the guy called, that means Rembrandt made the first bet. He shouldn't have bet at all though.

Eggheads - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: At the bar when the 3 are watching the game, Max has his hand up against his mouth as he's thinking. When Wade asks what he thinks, the shot changes and his hand is down.
