Night Out - S4-E11

Revealing mistake: When Toby announces that he's moving to Costa Rica, he gets up and goes to hop the fence. He moves out of frame and when the camera goes back to him, he's been replaced by a stunt double, which can be seen as the double's face is visible after he's scaled the fence. (00:17:15)

The Guild (2007)

Makeshift Solutions - S6-E3

Revealing mistake: When Clara is filming her kids, we see her daughter operate the car. When she's supposed to have put the car in gear and have driven forward, you can see the scenery move in the background, showing that the car was stationary and the camera was just violently moved to the right to simulate the act of the car moving.

Eureka (2006)

Mirror, Mirror - S5-E11

Revealing mistake: When Carter and Jo almost crash into the reflective smart dust wall on the road, Carter puts his hand up and waves it, to see his mirror image doing the same. Carter's mirror's hand movements are out of sync, which reveals that the "mirrors" are the actors, and the "real people" are doubles.

Primal - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: When we first see the army of Starks outside Global Dynamics, it's quite obvious that only one of them is actually the actor that plays Stark; the others are merely people who look similar.

Charmed (1998)

The Courtship of Wyatt's Father - S6-E16

Revealing mistake: Just after Piper and Leo are taken away, Paige orbs down to the ground and runs up to Pheobe, places her hand on her, and shows a blood-covered hand showing that Pheobe's been injured. But before it's shown, while Paige is running up to Pheobe, you can see Paige deliberately keeping her hand closed and facing away from the camera, because it's already there when she orbs down.

Regrets - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: When Artie demagnetizes the lab coat, Claudia falls from a high altitude, but when the shot cuts to her landing on the raft, you can see that the actor jumped from a position much closer to the ground. (00:39:00)

Germ (2013)

Revealing mistake: When Brooke arrives at the camp to drop off Steph and Chrissy, Chrissy leans out of the car and vomits, but you can see that she's not really vomiting, and is using her hand to cover up the special effects tube.
