Magnum P.I. (2018)

Death Is Only Temporary - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: TC and Rick are having "breakfast" with the veteran. When he sarcastically answers "Couldn't be better", TC' s has both hands around the bottle, while he just had one on top in the first shot. Rick has both hands around the can, and in the next shot he's got just one, the other being behind it. It goes back and forth as the two different angles alternate in editing. (00:10:55)

Death Is Only Temporary - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Magnum's client puts on the small table the e-mail with the picture on top, in a close-up. New shot and the picture has shifted to the right, and in the one that follows, Magnum grabs the mail without anything on top of it. (00:10:00)

Death Is Only Temporary - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Thomas puts the first pancakes in the dish and asks the kids about his own job. The kid answers "Hella cool things", and the girl next to him has her arm raised. New shot, and her arm is lowered - Magnum also is holding the plate higher than earlier. (00:03:45)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Sudden Death - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: A mysterious woman gets in the flat the doctor rented. From the moment she puts the pink cardigan on, the hair on her shoulders is inconsistently in front or behind, and while it's obviously well adjusted when she notices the missing tape and the balcony door, it's in disarray over her shoulder when she walks back from the window.

Sudden Death - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Magnum approached Wade Steuben and he points TC in the ring to him. His hand is raised (since he is literally pointing, after all) but in the next shot he has his arms folded. (00:14:55)

Sudden Death - S1-E5

Other mistake: During the game at the beginning of the episode, the opposing team (the Pearl City Chargers, white and purple) fields at least two players with the same jersey number 12. The kid protagonist runs past a guy with number 12 at he starts his run, and then dodges another two in front of him, who are present in the same shot - it's not a matter of editing/continuity, at least in that second shot. (00:50:00)

Sudden Death - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When the kid walks off the pitch at the beginning of the episode, he's carrying his helmet in the left hand and sports bag in the right, but when TC explains the sad story of the dad, he has the helmet in his right and the bag in his left. (00:01:40)

The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3

Continuity mistake: Magnum and his buddies have gotten all the information they needed from Jansen and Harms, and he begins to fast-talk his way out of the reinforcements. He points a stick at one of them, using his left hand, saying "You owe me 30 bucks." In a cut, the stick switches to the right hand. (00:33:10)

The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3

Continuity mistake: Magnum is struggling to load the big heavy crate in the van, or make it budge at all. Over half of the crate is in the shadow of the building, but in the rest of the scene when Magnum has to fight the two muscleheads off, it's suddenly fully in the sun. (00:09:30)
