CSI: Miami (2002)

Game Over - S3-E18

Other mistake: When the guy towing the boat at the beginning gets cut off by the black car, we see and hear him slam on the brakes, but the image we see shows no smoke from the tires, and the shot changes to when he's actually braking and the smoke appears. Additionally, when the other car T-bones him, we can hear both that car's tires screeching from braking as well as the engine revving from acceleration.

The Flash (2014)

Things You Can't Outrun - S1-E3

Other mistake: When Cisco and Cailtin call Barry to tell him about the man with the gun, Cailtin says he has a gun. Cut to the cops pursuing him, the perp shoots at the cops, and one of them seems surprised that he has a gun. There's no way Caitlin could have known about the gun without the cop knowing (which would presumably have been relayed over police communications).

Other mistake: When selecting Long Gears, it says that to upgrade to Pro, you must, "DrIve 10,000yds In Oncoming wIth Long Gears equIpped" Every "I" is capitalized, when they should be lower case.

Eureka (2006)

This One Time at Space Camp... - S4-E18

Other mistake: When Holly and Fargo are playing Dungeons and Dragons, Holly rolls a d20 die and yells, "Critical hit!" but we can see the 20 on one of the upper sides of the die, meaning that she actually rolled a 2, which is most definitely not a critical hit (and actually nearly a critical miss).

Portal: No Escape (2011)

Other mistake: When the captive begins her escape, she kicks the bed through the orange portal offscreen, but the portal only starts about a foot off the ground, so the bed would have hit the wall, rather than have gone through the portal.

Eureka (2006)

Phoenix Rising - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Allison video calls Jack as he's finishing bathing, apparently she can see below the belt, as she remarks for him to cover himself up. But he gets dressed and doesn't move any reasonable distance from the screen, and we then see Allison's view which only captures Jack's torso, so she never would have seen his privates anyway.

Eureka (2006)

Phased and Confused - S3-E6

Other mistake: Captain Eureka losing his finger makes absolutely no sense. He doesn't cry out in pain, there's no blood, and where the finger ended up is completely illogical. The finger didn't just sever on its own; it's shown that severing only occurs when passing through objects. Captain Eureka goes through a wall that is a good fifteen feet away from where the finger is discovered, and it is implausible to think it could have rolled there on its own.

Blank Check (1994)

Other mistake: When Preston puts the VR headset on Beiderman, he reacts in a very strange manner. Yes, it's better for the movie, but it doesn't make sense in-universe, as it would take very little effort to simply lift the headset off to remove it.

Blank Check (1994)

Other mistake: During the park chase, Preston swipes the backpack from the person that picks it up, and is still being chased by Quigly. He somehow manages to put the backpack on in a span of about 7 seconds. Considering he is pedaling for his life, and the fear of the men catching him, it's unreasonable to assume that he could have done such a feat so quickly.

Blank Check (1994)

Other mistake: When Preston's dad starts to back out of the driveway, he abruptly stops to avoid hitting the moving truck, as if it had just recently appeared there. But they've been there for a while. As soon as he stops, he gets out of the car to start complaining, and the truck driver has already been out of the car for a significant amount of time.

Eureka (2006)

Pilot - S1-E1

Other mistake: When the parents freak out about Brian being missing, the back of the camper is shown, as is the part of the camper that's missing due to the distortion sphere. But it doesn't make sense; there are some parts of of the camper that shouldn't be there, mainly the one piece above the ground, where the sphere scorched the pavement but left the camper's end right above it completely intact.

Charmed (1998)

The Courtship of Wyatt's Father - S6-E16

Other mistake: When the Darklighter shoots Leo in the attic on the Ghost Plane, the arrow goes all the way through him. He wasn't shown to be using anything other than a normal Darklighter Crossbow, and there wasn't any evidence that, since Leo and Piper were still alive, that the physics of the Ghost Plane are any different from the Normal Plane. Yet, in every other instance of someone getting shot with an arrow from a crossbow, it never, ever penetrates the person's body, and always get stuck.

Smart House (1999)

Other mistake: It's reasonable to assume that the house can hide small things like posters and even shelves when projecting images on the walls. When Ben's two friends arrive for the party, one of the walls shows an image and the couch disappears, and that's just way too big of an object to simply phase away, given what we see that the house can do.

Cube 2: Hypercube (2002)

Other mistake: When Max looks into the room with Julia, we see her lying on the ground from the perspective of the original room. But when Max enters the room, we find out that the room's gravity is different, meaning Julia should really have been lying on the wall, by the perspective of the original room.

Cube 2: Hypercube (2002)

Other mistake: When Max looks into another room to see Julia for the first time, he starts to enter the room. He is caught off guard by the gravity shift and almost falls into the room, but is able to grab on the rungs before falling. The way the rooms are built, it would be nearly impossible to do this given that the rungs are recessed around the frame of the door. Max would first of all have had to know that the gravity would shift, and then carefully reach both of his hands around the door in an extremely uncomfortable position to be able to touch the rungs, and would even be able to grasp them until he was actually falling. There is just no way that all of this could conceivably occur as it did. (00:29:00)

Pokemon (1998)

Pokemon mistake picture

A Shipful of Shivers - S2-E14

Other mistake: When Team Rocket is running away with the trophy, James falls flat on the ground, and an indentation of his body as well as the trophy is made. The indentation shows a perfect match to the trophy, but James' arms were partially covering it, so there shouldn't be a perfect indent of the trophy in the ground. (00:05:18)

Weekend at Barney's - S8-E18

Other mistake: There is absolutely no reason for Ted to hang around underneath his apartment window while Jeanette is throwing stuff out of it. Any sane person would know that there is a very high chance of getting struck by the myriad of Ted's belongings that are wantonly chucked out onto the street. He's not trying to collect/catch anything because he is turned away from the building, and is not paying attention to the items that are being thrown out.

Batman: Arkham Asylum

Other mistake: When you enter the caves just after Killer Croc tells you he's going rip you apart, if you try to use the grapple, the grapple will not stick - Batman will say that the place is falling apart, and you need to climb manually. You can't grapple any of the edges, yet, if you fall into a pit and press RB to "Escape" like most other parts of the game, he'll grapple up to the most recent edge, despite his previous claim.
