Never Kill A Boy On The First Date - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: The second time we see the van going to Sunnydale, the creepy guy is delivering a weird sermon. At one point, we see him reflected in the driver's mirror, and he is gesturing with his right hand, which is up around his abdomen/chest area. It then cuts and suddenly his hand is down by his side.

Never Kill A Boy On The First Date - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: The second time we see the van going towards Sunnydale, the creepy religious zealot guy puts his arm on the seat behind the mother and child. It then cuts to a closeup of them, and we cannot see the creep's arm behind them. It cuts back to a wideshot, and suddenly his arm is behind them again.

Never Kill A Boy On The First Date - S1-E5
Visible crew/equipment: When Buffy and Giles are in the cemetery, right before Buffy bails to go meet Owen, you can blatantly see a number rectangular studio/set lights reflected in Giles' glasses coming from various angles. (There wouldn't be dramatically-angled lights like that in a cemetery, let alone after dark).

Never Kill A Boy On The First Date - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Buffy gets up to walk over to Owen in the cafeteria, watch Willow and Xander... the directions they are facing change when it cuts to the wideshot. They suddenly are both watching Buffy in the wideshot, which they weren't before the shot cut. It's pretty subtle, so you have watch closely to notice.

Never Kill A Boy On The First Date - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Buffy, Xander and Willow are in the cafeteria in the beginning, Buffy says she's going to sit with Owen and Willow tells her "good luck." The way Willow is holding her fork changes between edits. (Specifically, it goes from pointed down to pointed up between cuts).

Never Kill A Boy On The First Date - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Buffy stakes the vampire in the opening scene, his arms go from up in the air to down by his sides between cuts right as she stakes him.
21st Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: When Giles and Buffy are talking about how to kill the She-Mantis, around the time Buffy says "Slice and dice!", her hands go from down by her sides to up in front of her chest gripping together between cuts.

Audio problem: When Xander is talking to Blaine in the cell, Blaine is explaining what Miss French/She-Mantis does. At one point Blaine says "She ties you up, " but his mouth doesn't match the words at all. His mouth and the words match for every other line, so I'm assuming they decided to add that line in post.
21st Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: When Xander thinks he hears someone at Miss French's house, she distracts him by caressing his chin. In the two shots facing Miss French, she's touching his chin with her LEFT hand but in the shot facing Xander she's touching his chin with her RIGHT hand.
21st Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: When Buffy is telling Giles and Willow what she read about praying mantises in the book, she slams it shut and says "Ha!" The scene then cuts from a wide shot to a medium shot of Buffy, and the way she is holding the book changes slightly between cuts. (More specifically, her hand and the book rotate about 45° between cuts).
21st Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: Near the beginning, Miss French picks up a little terrarium with the mantis in it, the position of the mantis changes instantly between cuts. First it's on the left side, then it's on the right.

Continuity mistake: At the Bronze in the beginning of the episode, two guys are talking about girls. At one point, one of them (the white guy) goes from facing forward to facing sideways at his friend between edits.
20th Sep 2022
Audio problem: After the opening credits, we see a band playing in the Bronze. The lead singer's mouth doesn't seem to 100% match what he's saying. It's mostly right, but just seems a little "off." (Ex. There's a few very brief moments where individual syllables seem to not match, etc.) It's very clear he's simply lip-syncing to a pre-recorded track.
20th Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the episode, when Buffy's teacher is looking at the slides, he goes from holding a slide with one hand to two hands instantly between edits.
20th Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the episode, Buffy's teacher turns on a light box and places a single slide on it. In the next shot, you can see the light box reflected in his eyeglasses, and in the reflection, you can see there are suddenly four or five slides on the light box. Then in the very next shot, there are suddenly NO SLIDES WHATSOEVER on the light box, and he places two down.
20th Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, the vampire makes Buffy back up into a pillar. In the first shot, Buffy is only inches away from the pillar. The camera cuts to the vampire for a second, then when it cuts back to Buffy, she's suddenly moved forward several feet and backs up into the pillar finally.
20th Sep 2022
Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, when you first see the vampire, you see a girl behind him running from screen-right to screen-left. She's in a blue plaid shirt and jeans. The scene cuts to Buffy for a second, then cuts back to the vampire and you can see the same girl doing the exact same thing in the background... running from screen-right to screen-left. (It looks like they used two different takes of the same shot in the scene).

Trivia: Was originally made under the title "Trouble At Mill," which is a piece of Northern England slang describing troubles outside of the household... especially workplace-related troubles. It was changed during production, as the filmmakers felt it might be too obscure for general audiences.

Trivia: The final complete "Wallace and Gromit" film to feature original voice actor Peter Sallis before his retirement. He voiced the character in only one other project after - an educational mini-series that featured the character in short vignettes introducing segments about unique inventions.

Trivia: Minor Spoilers: Director David Leitch previously made "Deadpool 2," which starred Ryan Reynolds, and in which Brad Pitt had a brief, blink-and-you'll-miss-it 2-second cameo. Leitch also directed this film, which stars Brad Pitt, and in which Ryan Reynolds has a brief, blink-and-you'll-miss-it 2-second cameo. (Reynolds appears very briefly in a flashback as the assassin Pitt is subbing for).
