Continuity mistake: The police operation with Kono undercover begins showing a timestamp on the video feed saying that it's "Monday, 21:16:40" (approx). Inside the warehouse though, when the smuggler boss asks her what she does for a living, we're back in time at 21:14:18. From then on, the time changes inconsistently to 21:15:33, 21:16:46 (more than a minute when she is just turning around), 21:16:04 (again wrong order) and as he sends a text to the mole, the reply comes at 9:24, which would mean 5-6 mins have passed. (00:31:30 - 00:34:10)

Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Continuity mistake: Grace Park comes out of the water and punches a guy; the part of the surf with the red and black logo faces up. Then she picks it up, and, in a way that does not register right consider her motion and the rotation, that side of the board is facing her. Another cut, and the board is facing the opposite direction. (00:28:20)

Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Continuity mistake: When Danny and Steve are standing dressed like dorks in the parking lot outside Kamekona's joint, behind them on the left there's a guy who is changing bathing suits using a towel to cover himself. When they speak with the pesky kid the guy finishes his deed and leaves, but when Danny reaches inside the car for the big pink fuzzy thing, that guy is back in that spot. (00:26:05)

Hawaii Five-0 (2010)
Continuity mistake: When Steve McGarrett takes the picture of the footprint, what is photographing is different from what was shown earlier; the print and the objects to the left shifted - easy to tell using the tiles as reference, since in the picture the heel of the foot stops right at the line between two tiles, while it went well across it in the original shot.

Magnum P.I. (2018)
Six Paintings, One Frame - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Higgins does Magnum's tie when his collar is unbuttoned, but when she's done with the knot all of a sudden the button is fastened as well. (00:40:25)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
Six Paintings, One Frame - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Magnum has just been released from the police station, and him and Higgy are walking down the stairs as she explains to him the superglue trick. A man suddenly appears on the stairs during a cut. (00:30:25)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When the culprit backs off from the door because of detective Katsumoto and drags Emily with him, she has her left shoulder covered with hair, a little hair, then no hair at all. Even more noticeably, when Higgins tells him that he does not have to do this etc, he is pulling her with him using his hand encumbered with the trinkets bag, but at the cut his hand is empty and directly on her bare shoulder. (00:36:20)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Rick picks up Magnum's cheque, the envelope on the table is pointed with the right side closer to Magnum. When Magnum pics the envelope a moment later, it is the other way around, the closer side is the left one. (00:26:40)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Thomas gave the information about the comatose girl to his client. The client puts the phone down at an angle and relatively close. The next time we see the phone during conversation, it's aligned to the table and at greater distance, and when Rick arrives with the case file it's at an angle again. (00:24:15)

The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Magnum pulls some envelopes out from their hiding spot and flaunts them to Higgins; they are in different order in each shot (white on top, green on top, white again). (00:21:55)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: During the stop to commit a felony on the way home, Magnum picks the lock and opens the door. Higgins who was on lookout turns around, and in the new shot Magnum is still opening the door he already opened, and using the other arm. (00:20:45)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Luther scratches, sending the cue ball into the pocket. He then throws the cue stick on the table...next to the cue ball. (00:04:15)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Luther at the beginning of the initial conversation grabs a cue and takes a quick shot. Magnum begins to explain he's "a little tight" on money, and in this new shot a ball moves across the pool table while the view of the table before cut lingered long enough for the balls to stop already. (00:03:25)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: Right after the "girl power" fistbump, Higgins grabs her phone and there's a close-up of a Luther. In close-up, you see the right thumb on the side of the phone, but in the reverse shot the thumb is on the front of the device. (00:03:00)

Magnum P.I. (2018)
The Woman Who Never Died - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: The episode begins with the camera behind Juliett Higgins; she is leaning against her hand in a closed fist. Next, and we see her with the fingers straight and she makes a fist only a second later. (00:00:55)
21st Mar 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: When Magnum jumps over the garden wall, he bumps into rolled up rugs, unfurling one. Which looks the same way at the end of the scene when the same camera angle is used. But the middle part of the scene is shot in a different angle, closer to Tom Selleck's face as he crawls to Higgins and gets up, and in that angle the rugs are piled together in a different way, with the unrolled rug draped over the others. (00:41:35)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: In the diversion at the beach, AJ removes his shirt in the wide shot with TC and Magnum telling him "You're not surfing", but he still has it up to the elbow in the frontal. (00:26:35)
21st Mar 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: In the lengthy scene with the suave Simon brother at the gate, he is always holding the second bar to the left in the wider angles, the third in closer shots. (00:19:25)
21st Mar 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: When Higgins reminisces with A.J. Simon about his run-in in chemin de fer with Ferdinand II, he is holding his flashlight horizontal, pointed at Jameson Parker, but at the cut he is pointing downwards at the map. Jameson Parker is also holding the map differently, with his 3 last fingers joined together at first, spread wider apart in the other shot. (00:20:25)
