Continuity mistake: After telling the joke about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Marshall's hands change between shots, from holding his hand for a hi-five to his pockets to holding the Skittles. (00:08:32)

Say Cheese - S5-E18
Continuity mistake: Barney claims in this episode he never "takes a bad picture". But in earlier episode "The Sexless Innkeeper" there were plenty of bad pictures of Barney in Marshall's Best Night Ever Montage.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: Lily and Marshall mention that they've been using the same toothbrush ever since they've been together, but in the 14th episode of the 1st season, "Zip, Zip, Zip", Marshall and Lily are simultaneously brushing their teeth with a tooth brush each (before Ted and Victoria get home). (00:05:05)

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: The scenes before Robin and Barney leave the diner vary depending on the angle. From outside we see that Robin fixes Barney's suit before they leave, but from the inside she doesn't.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: In the 7th episode of Season 5, the scenes when the "Storm-Trooper" (actually, a robot) passes by The Window do not match. The first time we see it, from the outside, as soon as he passes, Robin notices him and points towards him, but the second time, from the inside, she doesn't point at him.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: When Ted, Barney and the girls are heading to the South Bronx in the cab, keep watching Colleen's head, near when Barney says, "Somebody's been watching too many Seinfeld reruns", her head moves instantly between shots, from looking towards Ted to looking at Barney.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: Barney blocks Ted's path by standing in front of the door. Watch his position as he says, "Ted, don't do this" for the second time, he has his right arm over his head. When the camera changes angles he has it down.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: During the scene in "Marshall and Lily's part", after they leave the bathroom, we can see Robin and Virginia (Ted's Mom) talking in the back. Their hand motions do not match the later scene of the "Robin and Ted's part". Obviously, they were shot separately.

How I Met Your Mother (2005)
Continuity mistake: During the scene back in college, when Marshall and Lily are listening to Dr. X's show, at the first shot of the radio, you can see some popcorn there already, although Marshall has not thrown any, yet. Even if you claim he's been throwing constantly, a few shots later they vanish, and reappear.

The Chain Of Screaming - S3-E15
Audio problem: At the very beginning, after Ted says, "A new car", Lily's lips move, but she doesn't say anything. Obviously her dialogue was cut in post-production. (00:00:10)

No Tomorrow - S3-E12
Continuity mistake: Towards the end, when Ted says, "You just yelled at me", look at Marshall. He's about to take a sip of his drink, but when the camera cuts to a different angle, the mug's nowhere near his lips anymore.

Continuity mistake: When Ted, Barney and their dates are in the tub, Barney is holding a bottle. He takes a sip (i.e. no cap) and hands it to Amy (Ted's date). Now it has a cap. She hands it to Ted who unscrews it and has a drink.

Suggested correction: Many people buy another toothbrush to take on trips and since they were supposed to be going away, they probably decided to use them at home, as if this was their trip.
The whole point of the mistake is they say they have always shared a toothbrush. So why would they use separate on a trip?
