The Dark and Bloody Ground - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: During the chase with the Mack truck, Rockford's car in the POV shots from the car tire is edging the side of the road with a ditch really close, but in the other angles the surroundings don't have such an immediate threat close by. (00:16:10)

The Dark and Bloody Ground - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: At lunch, Jim asks Beth Davenport to find out everything Ann knows about her husband. She is touching her necklace, but at the cut that same hand holds a mug. (00:09:10)
29th Apr 2020
Revealing mistake: When the cars run past the water sprinkler, the curve has been already marked by several tire tracks. (00:44:25)
29th Apr 2020
Continuity mistake: Rockford knocks out of the bad guy with a shovel in the gut. He drops the shovel in the bunker, and the tool a couple seconds later is lying down in a different place without him touching it. (00:45:00)
29th Apr 2020
Revealing mistake: During the car chase in the golf course, Rockford gets ahead of Muzzy Vinette and has to turn the car to block his path. You can see in the grass, in that precise spot, different marks from previous takes of the scene. Obviously not a maneuver golf carts perform, and right there. (00:43:40)
29th Apr 2020
Continuity mistake: Rockford tries the cigarette trick once more but the big guy knocks him down with a punch. He then searches him; his hands are on opposite corners of the wallet in close-up, on different ones in the following shot. (00:38:00)
29th Apr 2020
Continuity mistake: At the drive-in, Rockford in close-up chews into the burger holding it with both hands, but in the previous shot he was using one hand to keep the plate underneath it. In fact, his plate went on the tray outside the car. (00:34:55)
29th Apr 2020
Other mistake: Both Rockford's appointments are at 8 o'clock. He shows up for the one with the mysterious person; gets beaten up, dragged to a warehouse (presumably remote, from what it is shown), beaten up some more to the point of spitting out a tooth, he is then at LAPD, where everyone hates him and definitely does not prioritize his case, he makes Becker search for the warehouse's registration, which needs for him to call in favours, and he turns then up for Tawnia's appointment at 9. With all the stuff that happened, and with the typical LA traffic, it'd already be something to be a mere one hour late without all the rest in the middle of it. Even his wound is kinda healed in that short time.
29th Apr 2020
Continuity mistake: In its close-up, the mushy pink drink has the two straws fairly close together, well separated and divergent in the side views. (00:32:00)
29th Apr 2020
Continuity mistake: At the bar after the beating and police report, Rockford approaches Tawnia who is having a drink with a gent. At the cut, the guy's chewing the cigar and Tawnia's hand with the drink is lower than earlier. (00:31:45)
29th Apr 2020
Audio problem: Jim has been beaten up in front of the Sierra and dragged back into his own car. When they drag him out inside of some warehouse, he says "Take it easy! I'm not struggling, am I?", but James Garner's lips are not moving and the line is obviously dubbed in. (00:24:30)
29th Apr 2020
Revealing mistake: Rockford checks out of the publication featuring the bulletin article about the Greens headed for the Greek Islands. The camera lingers on it, and you can read it's all filler gibberish about investigations and such. (00:17:35)
29th Apr 2020
Continuity mistake: When Rockford decks Travis with a punch, the shadow he projects on the door and wall is much shorter in the wider angle compared to the close-up. (00:11:20)
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Rockford pops from behind the cement mixer truck, he casts no shadow above the vehicle's wheel in the long shot, he does in the close-up.
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The bad guys destroy Rockford's car, which in an old school trope explodes (even if it makes little sense that it would). The explosion raises a column of thick black smoke as the car burns...which is just gone after.
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: During the whole climactic duel between plane and car, despite the setting in the desertic outskirts of Vegas, aerial view show already from the beginning several tire tracks from previous takes. (01:30:00)
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: Jim Rockford rushes towards the shooting when Jerry just shot the priest; he takes a sharp turn following skidmarks from previous takes. (01:18:00)
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Revealing mistake: When Jerry guns down the reverend, the person falling forward wears a remarkable grey wig - you can spot black hair on his neck area, even. (00:34:55)
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The minister escapes from the car and across the street; Jerry points his gun at him. The driver of the still car has his hand at 12 o'clock on the wheel in one shot, but did not in the previous. (00:34:35)
29th Apr 2020
Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: After engaging in off-screen various recreational activities right under his photo, Sara is telling the story of her father per Jim's request "One time, I couldn't find him for three weeks", she says; Jim's hand was on her lower back, it starts behind her head here. (01:15:00)
