Continuity mistake: When TC hulks up from the stool for his last round, Rick has his right hand on the towel, which becomes the left hand as TC parries yet another haymaker. (00:43:40)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: When the champion sends TC flying with some sort of flamboyant knee to the face, before TC gets to the ground you can see the towel on the top rope being quite distant from the turnbuckle. In the rest of the scene it is right by it. (00:42:45)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Revealing mistake: When the brawl in Charlie's office begins, Tom Selleck changes into his stuntman who can be seen as he quickly stands and punches a goon. (00:41:50)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Audio problem: Magnum poses as an envoy from Icepick. When he takes his feet off the desk, he says an "Okay" that the microphone struggles to pick up. (00:41:05)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Other mistake: Fun gag but does not make sense; Magnum has a prolonged conversation at the bar (not a random brief chance encounter) with Lou Whitaker and Alan Trammel, and he, a huge Tigers Fan who in other episodes proved to be able to recognize obscure players from other past teams, needs the bartender to tell him who they were. (00:27:30)

Saint Seiya: Awakening
Other mistake: The description of Siren Sorrento keeps using female pronouns ("she", "her"), but the character is unambiguously male. Of course Sirens in mythology were female, but it's simply the creature his Cloth is dedicated to.
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: Magnum is talking with the landlady in Chicago. He sneaks a peek of the Tigers game on TV. In the wider angle the newspaper in front of the TV is folded revealing different letters than in the close-ups, where it's tightly pressed. (00:19:25)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Audio problem: During the first match, Rick shouts "Attaboy, TC!" from the corner but Larry Manetti pops in frame during the dodge, lips closed. (00:16:05)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: Claude rings a cowbell to announce the contenders. Amongst the patrons, recognizable and featured prominently is a local girl with a brown dress and white shoulderstraps. She is shouting and cheering in a frontal view, drink in hand, but she is also sitting in another seat, smoking, in the shots from behind. (00:14:50)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: TC is accepted as replacement and tells Claude the announcer his boxing credentials. During the wide shots, Shannen Doherty's hair runs to the sleeve of her shirt, does not in close-ups. (00:14:00)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Audio problem: When Charlie Amos says "No time to promote you" questioning TC's proposal to replace Leon, the sentence is dubbed in, having different audio quality from the rest. (00:13:55)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: Shannen Doherty does some fine emotional blackmail on TC chasing him as he is leaving after just finding out about the boxing being of the bareknuckle kind. During this scene TC's boot on his chest changes orientation without being touched, from tip to the left ("You just gotta help me") to right ("Do you know how bad he can get hurt?") to left again. (00:13:15)
29th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: First scene in Higgins' study. Leon Platt is determined to go on with his fights even injured. He has his good hand on his daughter Ima's shoulder. She tells him "No daddy, you can't!" as he removes the hand, but in the following close-up on Shannen Doherty, the hand is back on the shoulder. (00:08:25)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: Higgins through the intercom asks "TC, why are you here?" TC lowers his left hand - he had his thumb near the intercom button before, now he put it on the card. New shot, and he's back sticking his thumb up. (00:06:25)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Revealing mistake: The shot of the Ferrari during the directorial credits (filmed from a car in front) does not feature Roger E. Mosley behind the wheel; you can see a bit of longer hair sticking from the top. (00:04:30)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Revealing mistake: During the crash through the fence, the front of the Ferrari has a mockup in the front; the left direction indicator falls off outright, but it is just broken when TC and the new two passengers take off. (00:04:40)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: TC spots in a close-up the Marines tattoo of the guy he injured. The position of the daughter's hand (she has her fingers in the rolled sleeve) and body (she's tightly close) in that close-up is different than in the other views. (00:04:55)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Revealing mistake: TC's accident with the hog pen is shot in (at least) two takes, one with the stuntman dodging the car inside an otherwise empty pen, and the establishing shot with the animals when the car is still not so close - and then when the car has stopped at the end and there's no danger for the pigs. (00:04:40)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Continuity mistake: Magnum and TC are talking at the beginning of the episode, by Rick and his peachy polo. Magnum has always his hands on his hips in TC's close-ups and in front of his belly in the wider angle shots. (00:02:15)
28th May 2020
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
Squeeze Play - S4-E7
Audio problem: During the first phases of practice, Kioki in a close-up exclaims "All right!" in an obvious redub with background noise almost silenced. (00:08:25)
