Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Inside Higgins' study you can get a great look at Magnum's dirty shoes when he sits with his feet up on the desk. Those shoes have a blue logo on the tongue. Later there's a close-up of Magnum and Adelaide's feet when Magnum drops the gun in the stable, and the shoes are very similar but different, lacking the blue logo. (00:39:15 - 00:44:15)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Revealing mistake: When Magnum dives on the ground to avoid fire and has trouble getting the gun to work, under the rolled up sleeve of his jacket there's a protective elbow pad poking out. (00:22:45)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Revealing mistake: Adelaide's uncle is supposed to have a prosthetic hand merely cosmetic, but when he hops on the jeep, he grabs the top of the windshield to get in, his fingers flex just fine. (00:14:10)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Revealing mistake: When Higgins reads the paper talking about the "horsenappers", the prop bears the unmistakable filler text "The facts regarding the situation remain the same" etc. (00:39:10)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Rick and TC their back to Magnum and scoff at him. Magnum chases his primadonna friends to convince them to help him. During this scene, the same rider approaches the gate, accompanied by a stable worker with a baseball cap that is first red, then yellow. (00:29:10)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Magnum before the race tells Adelaide to "Ride like the champion you are." Behind her, a woman with a beige hat with a leather band walks by, along a man with curly blonde hair. Same two pass her by, again from the same direction, in the next shot several seconds later, and again another few seconds later when he tells her to smile. (00:27:15)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Higgins and Magnum bicker quite a bit about Robin Masters' box, the horse client and rugged chukkers. During the whole scene, the same extras walk back and forth repeatedly with no logic. For instance, the woman in blue shirt and a straw hat, popping up behind Higgins first and then behind Magnum in the opposite direction when Higgins asks "Another uncle?" (00:25:30)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Higgins spots Magnum at the race track; the dames to his left and right turn their heads towards Magnum as well two times in two separate shots with different timing. (00:25:00)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Rick in his ridiculous outfit gives Magnum the cigar, he grabs it with his right hand, but in the intermediate shot of Magnum smiling, it's in his left hand. (00:24:20)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Magnum shoots at the bad guys who flee after setting on fire the stable of the rival. In close-up, Tom Selleck acts a bit, with an expression of disappointment at missing them and some energetic gesture. None of which happens in the longshot, where he repeats the same action but with no such flair. (00:23:00)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Adelaide is crying thinking the horse to be dead, her uncle in close-up is leaning agaist the side of the door with his left hand. Longshot, and he's leaning into the frontal opening. (00:15:40)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: The baddie is a real sharpshooter and punctures the tire of the jeep with a single gunshot. The jeep's wheel stops its spin in a close-up, but when Magnum gets off the jeep the tire looks fine, and it stopped in a different position - as you can tell by the position of the brand logo. (00:14:50)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Magnum and Adelaide's uncle follow the baddies that kidnapped her. The jeep drives up a slope; despite the fact that it's following a horseback bandit in the grass, there are already tiremarks in the grass. (00:14:35)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Revealing mistake: When Adelaide bangs her shovel against a bandit that falls from the horse, you can see the man has extensive padding under his shirt, to take the hit and the fall. (00:13:45)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: The quilt on Adelaide's camping bed is folded differently when she gets in bed, compared to when she began taking her boot off telling Magnum about her earlier display of "feminine wiles" (00:11:50 - 00:12:20)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Magnum is talking to Adelaide on the camping bed outside Norman's stall, the position of the fingers of his left hand change at each cut. (00:11:35)

Sammo ★

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Magnum threatens to leave, but Adelaide sulks hard enough to keep him on the case. When the camera is on her, the Detroit Tigers cap is reflected in the rear mirror, and it keeps the same position regardless of Tom Selleck's head movements in the other shots. (00:09:15)

Sammo ★

Adelaide - S1-E14

Revealing mistake: Magnum and Adelaide are headed to her place on TC's chopper. Throughout the sequence, the camera moves up and down but can't conceal that the fact that they are not moving at all and they are just sitting in the chopper, with set lights reflected in her glasses and even the silhouette of the rotor of the chopper, completely still, peeking through the glass. (00:04:50)

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: In the part of the prelimary conversation when Rick and TC are having a blast from the notion that Adelaide looked Magnum up on the Yellow Pages, the shadow on Magnum's body keeps changing depending on the camera angle. (00:03:45)

Sammo ★

Adelaide - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Rick and TC glare at Magnum when he calls them his 'associates'; Rick turns with quite a bit of delay, and in the next shot, with Adelaide still talking in continuity, he's looking at her and not him. (00:03:25)
