Audio problem: At the 'punk' club in Chinatown, the live singer (or yeller) is lip-syncing (and with lots of lips but very little of the synching). (00:38:10)

Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 4 - S1-E22

Appointment With Death (1988)
Audio problem: Dr. King is looking at the strange situation in front of Emily's tent while Lady Westholme is talking to her. In foreground, Lauren Bacall's lips don't match the audio of what she's saying. (00:44:35)

Yukiyasha Legend Murder Case: File 2 - S2-E15

26th Mar 2022
Appointment With Death (1988)
Audio problem: Hassan runs away, chased by Dr. King. A wild Lady Westholme appears and says a line that does not match her lips. (Peter Ustinov's lips move without a sound as well, but in his case Poirot is self-censoring an expletive). (01:15:15)
26th Mar 2022
Scream 3 (2000)
Audio problem: To dispel Jennifer's suspicions that he's still in love with Gale, Dewey adds that Gale is cruel, etc. David Arquette's lips are not moving, though. Noticed also by the crew on the DVD commentary track. (00:39:40)

Kindaichi shônen no jiken bo (1997)
Magical Express Murder Case: File 3 - S2-E12
Audio problem: When Kindaichi understands the trick and runs away from the murder room, Miyuki as usual exclaims "Hajime-chan!" but with a curious flub in animation, her tongue moves but not her lips. Try to say "Hajime-chan" keeping your mouth open all the time, it's fun. (00:18:45)

Lupin the 3rd (1971)
Farewell My Beloved Witch - S1-E3

24th Mar 2022
Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo Returns (2014)
Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 3 - S1-E21
Audio problem: Kindaichi is listening to the recording of the phone call a couple times over; however he does not listen to it in a loop, but rather the file shows up as lasting 52 seconds, with the call being just a handful of seconds. On top of that, when he listens to it again in front of the building, the timestamps don't match.
24th Mar 2022
Appointment With Death (1988)
Audio problem: Lady Westholme pushes the half-open door against Poirot twice. The door makes the same sound it does when it gets slammed shut later (twice). As stocky as Peter Ustinov is, he's not made of wood, and while obviously a door hitting a person would make a thud (I admit having tested it), it wouldn't make the kind of sound heard here. (00:58:35)

22nd Mar 2022
Appointment With Death (1988)
Audio problem: During the fireworks, Poirot's line about the "nice and royal" show giving him "confidence" is dubbed over, and you can in fact see Peter Ustinov in the shot of the crowd, not saying those words. (01:37:40)
22nd Mar 2022
Appointment With Death (1988)
Audio problem: When Poirot stands from his seat after telling the truth about the spider, he looks at Dr. King. Her lips move but there is no audio. (01:33:50)

Ghostbusters (1984)
Audio problem: Running away from the 'bear', Tully shouts the humorous line; "I'm gonna to bring this up at the next tenants' meeting...there's not supposed to be any pets in the building." However, look at Rick Moranis' face; his lips are not moving and the line was dubbed over. (00:54:10)
