Factual error: Emmanuelle Devos goes to the airport to get her husband and daughter. Their plane landed at 7 PM (18:58 to be precise) as shown by the airport monitor. They get a cab to a hotel downtown, and then there's a scene when she books a restaurant from the hotel room. She tells her husband, who just took a shower, that they need to be at the restaurant at 8 PM. Her husband says that there's no rush then, since it's only 7 PM. Of course that's impossible, the Turin airport is about 20km away from the part of the city they are driving through, which at that hour has also significant traffic; if their plane landed at 7, at 8 PM they would hardly have any time left to spare.

Batwoman (2019)
Plot hole: The demented villain is not keeping tabs on the elevators! The rescue teams can move freely around the tower, the elevator doors can be pried open with ease like Sophie and her husband do, so his threat is completely empty and ineffective, somewhat surpassed in idiocy only by Batwoman's response, who during the ultimatum gets back home and keeps busy spraypanting the suit and finding a wig for her date with the crazy guy at the top of the hour rather than taking 10 minutes or so to free the people trapped in the 7 elevators first, unopposed as she is, and go challenge the idiot later when he has no more hostages. It shoud also be noted that the villain made the "hostage" situation and the "one hour" ultimatum known only to Kate! The police and the Crows have no reason at all not to intervene with full force to check out who the crazy bomber guy is, but the police does not swarm the building and nobody finds odd to see a madman on top of the building under terrorist attack.

Seinfeld (1990)
The Robbery - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Jerry has just won the contested deed for The Apartment beating George. Look at The Jacket on the counter. When Kramer makes his trademark entrance, The Jacket is placed differently. (00:16:40)

Murder, She Wrote (1984)
The Murder of Sherlock Holmes - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Episode 1-0, "The Murder of Sherlock Holmes"; Mr. Giles opens the door of the antechamber of his office, finally putting an end to Jessica's long wait. Grady right away at the first click of the lock takes his hands off his pockets and tidies up his sleeves. But in the next shot when Grady actually enters and talks to the secretary, Grady is still with his hands on his pockets repeating the gesture. (00:10:10)

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Stupidity: Magpie in theory has the exploding pearls as diversion for her escape, but the pearls explode all too soon and in a room that she already emptied with the false alarm. Reality is that she has to face already zero security without the pearls being a factor, the moment she presses the alarm button. That's because for some reason every single Crow armed guard went to the exit to help the guests leave (in a most unprofessional way as they further crowd up the exit standing right in the way) and nobody remained behind to remotely keep an eye on the jewels. Also of course there is no alarm whatsoever on the jewelry cases, that can be opened at will. That is a serious joke of a security, and supposedly made by professionals, former navy seals, green berets etc.

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Other mistake: Magpie is surprised by the guard at the beginning of the episode; the guard is running in the room, hand going for the gun. After a cut to her with close-up on her elaborate fetching of the bombs with her awkward nails, the man is standing still, hand down his leg, only then going for the weapon. Two bombs fall at his feet, one per foot, touching the feet directly. Obviously he just looks at what they are instead of jumping back, and they explode in a single mushroom cloud CGI explosion, to his left. (00:01:10)

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Reagan and Kate have the break-up talk, Reagan catches her in a lie and says "You just said you were on a call." Behind her, a man with a conspicuous shirt (black with red drawings on it) walks off, and is in a following shot walking down the street, leaving for good. Right before she says "All I ask for is a little honesty", several seconds later, the funny shirted man is back behind her. (00:34:05)

Who Are You? - S1-E4
Plot hole: Analyzing the remains of the explosion on the bridge does not lead to the retrieval and identification of the detonator who triggered the bomb, but Sophie deduces that it must be unreleased technology from Hamilton's, because of the extreme precision with a convoy that had 7 vehicles. The vehicles in the bridge scene in episode 2 were proceeding in a line and several meters apart. There was nothing unique in the detonation as shown, any stooge pushing a button on a remote control could have hit with the same 'precision' without breaking a sweat. (00:12:30)

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Plot hole: The whole pearl necklace situation is a scene choke-full of mistakes. What we witness is Batwoman 'protecting' people from explosions of terrible superimposed CGI who look absolutely harmless, don't hurt anybody, are generally tiny and at great distance from everyone. The culmination happens when to thwart the threat of the single pearl left (the pearls all explode at different times, must have super high tech nano-detonators) Batwoman throws the batarang with millimetre precision at the small hand of a little girl, somehow knocking away the object, somehow not making it explode (how could she know hitting it violently wouldn't?) and leaps on the girl to shield her eyes from the explosion. Explosion which should be very distant since it comes from a single tiny pearl violently knocked away by a metal batarang before Kate' sprint, but somehow is still so big and devastating to horrify the crowd, larger than anything seen in the museum with dozens more and close by.

Game Over, Man! (2018)
Continuity mistake: Darren is smoking salvia in the first scene in the hotel room. He lies down on the bed; his hand changes position between shots several times. (00:03:30)
31st Dec 2019
Batwoman (2019)
Continuity mistake: At the university, Sophie ends up chasing away anyone interested in Mary. She motions her to go and in a close-up says "Kinda looking for my future husband here." Behind her, a woman with a bike is walking right to left. In the next shot, the woman is walking starting from a point much further back than before, and even more noticeably, two girls calmly make their way halfway through the stairs and sit down...but they were already sitting there in that previous shot. (00:12:50)

Batwoman (2019)

Continuity mistake: The quantity of blood behind Batman's dummy changes; in the overhead shoot of the crowd it runs horizontally along the step for an area 3-4 inches wide, while in the subsequent close-up there's no such trim. (00:12:00)

The Princess Switch (2018)
Continuity mistake: Kevin and his daughter handed the invite for the dream-like contest to the protagonist. He shoos her away saying "Liv, don't you need some milk with that cookie?" His arms are crossed behind his back. Next shot and she is walking away from him with his hands crossed in front of his crotch. (00:02:20)

Les Profs (2013)
Continuity mistake: The English teacher enters the classroom for her first lesson. She writes her name on the blackboard. Her name is written in at least 2 different styles that randomly switch during the scene (easy to tell from the double underline; the two strokes connect with the circle of the capital initial of her name, or stop at the tail). (00:07:00)

Batwoman (2019)
Who Are You? - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: When Reagan says "Sound like I have nothing to worry about" referring to Sophie, to the left of the frame a black couple meets a friend in a hug. In the next shot, they keep walking and Reagan says "I used to live there", passing by the same guy, not yet reached by the friend. (00:13:45)

Marriage Story (2019)

Continuity mistake: In the first scene at Grandma's house, she wakes Nicole and Henry up early, and tells him to go make mom some coffee. Between shots there are different continuity errors; at first the sheet is rumpled, then the blanket is covering it entirely, then when Grandma leans in and kisses him you can notice Scarlett's right arm first on her chest then behind her back, and Azhy Robertson's chest is uncovered in the second shot when he was still under the blanket up to his neck earlier. (00:15:40)

The App (2019)
Continuity mistake: During the sign-up for the app at the beginning the girl says "I want to be Sarah." Look at her hair; mostly in front of her left shoulder, just a couple locks on the right side of her face. At the cut, hair behind the left shoulder and a bigger right bang. Camera angles and hairstyles switch again back and forth. (00:02:30)

Christmas in Angel Falls (2017)
Continuity mistake: Gabby is just starting her assignment. She is looking at the women of the choir singing "Joy to the world"; she is standing at distance from the pews, but when it cuts to a closer view she has her hands on one. (00:10:00)

Football Manager 2020
Audio problem: Many of the sounds during the match are not in sync and glitch. The most egregious bug here has to be when the sound of the ball being kicked starts repeating very fast, and not when a footballer is running with the ball (kicking it forward at every step, makes sense), but when the ball is in mid-air! Another obvious glitch is the crowd noise; the cheers and jeers are often much louder during a replay than during the match, with the same camera angle.

The Addams Family (2019)
Continuity mistake: Wednesday tosses the cell phone back to Parker. In precarious balance on top of Ichabod, she clutches it to her chest in different spots at the cut. (00:34:20)
