Revealing mistake: Towards the end, when Luca and Deacon are bringing the criminal they caught to one of the cars, he has his hands tied up over the hands themselves and not at the wrists, making that kind of restraint completely ineffective. (00:38:30)

Nashville (2012)
Revealing mistake: In the scene at the beginning when Scarlett is signing autographs after hers and Gunnar's small concert, you can see her signing a poster with a marker that doesn't leave any ink on the poster. (00:08:15)

Xena: Warrior Princess (1995)
Is There A Doctor in the House? - S1-E24
Revealing mistake: After Gabrielle's been wounded, there's a scene where she starts thrashing violently. A little after that, Hippocrates declares her dead despite the fact that you can see her breathing in the previous shot.

Xena: Warrior Princess (1995)
Revealing mistake: When Marcus is hanging off a wall in Hell and under attack from a harpy, there's a shot of Xena jumping on said wall to help him. When she lands, you can see the pavement give in a little, like it's made of rubber instead of stone. (00:35:45)

Xena: Warrior Princess (1995)
Revealing mistake: When Xena is fighting Celano, right after he grabs his knife to try and kill her, the shot changes to Xena, who after dropping back to the ground is supposed to be unsheathing her sword, but actually has it out already and just pretends to. (00:39:00)

Conviction (2016)
Revealing mistake: Right after the scene in Wallace's office where the DHS tries to shut down Hayes' investigation, the scene shifts to a montage. Towards the end of it there's a loop: in the bottom left corner you can see someone on a scooter appear from the left, only to disappear a second later and reappear from where they'd come the first time.

The 100 (2014)
Blood Must Have Blood: Part 2 - S2-E16
Revealing mistake: When Octavia storms into the lab where the Mountain Men have been holding the Ark's people, she has her sword in her right hand. As soon as Kane speaks she makes to sheath it, and we hear the sound we're used to expect to accompany that motion, but you can see she's just holding the unsheathed sword behind her. Then she proceeds to drop it, hiding part of the action from the camera with her body, and although you don't see her catch it again that is made evident from the way she eases the sword on the floor beside her right foot a moment later. Furthermore, in the next shot her sword is not in its sheath. (00:30:05)

Agents of SHIELD (2013)
Chaos Theory - S3-E7
Revealing mistake: In the shot where Lash hauls Rosalind over the parapet to later drop her, you can see that he is actually lifting a mannequin as its legs very fluidly bend backwards while it is being dragged over. (00:32:00)

Once Upon a Time (2011)
Revealing mistake: At the end of the episode, when Emma goes to Gold to ask for his help, we can see he's wearing a wedding ring on his left hand in addition to the usual ring with the light blue stone he wears on the right. That's actually Robert Carlyle's own wedding ring; as he wrote during a twitter Q&A session, he forgot to take it off before they started to film. (00:40:35)
