Trivia: When Danielle is with Gustave in his painter's studio, just as Gustave says, "Five days in the stocks," there's a painting of a noblewoman on the easel beside them; the noblewoman left her gown and jewelry at the studio for the painter to consult while completing her portrait, and it is that noblewoman's gown Danielle borrows to impersonate a courtier. Then, while Danielle is at the royal court quoting Utopia to Henry, right after she says, "but that you first make thieves and then punish them," in the next shot, the older noblewoman at the center is the one from the portrait; she's played by Amanda Walker, the wife of Patrick Godfrey who plays Leonardo, also in this scene. Amanda was to have a line in this scene (in the goldenrod script version), commenting on Danielle's gown being identical to her own, but that line was cut. (00:21:45 - 00:29:20)

The Sopranos (1999)
Visible crew/equipment: During the dinner scene, in some of the shots facing Junior, the reflection of the boom operator (wearing a watch) holding up the boom pole/mic is visible on the glass, toward the top left side of the screen. Additionally, in two shots facing Junior (POV beside Carmela's right shoulder), we can see part of a black reflector screen (collapsible type) between Junior and Carmela.

The Sopranos (1999)
Visible crew/equipment: When AJ tries on his new military school uniform, he's pressured to also put on the hat. Then, after AJ looks at himself in the mirror, just as he walks back toward his mother, the reflection of the boom mic becomes visible in that mirror directly over Carmela's reflection, at the right side of the screen.

Jackpot! (2024)
Continuity mistake: After the bad biker bites Noel, he removes the rearview mirror from the windshield and smacks the bad biker with it. However, when Noel tells Katie to drive the car, in the exterior shots as she sideswipes another car, the rearview mirror is back up on the windshield; then it's off again. (00:33:35)
24th Oct 2024
The Sopranos (1999)
Visible crew/equipment: While Tony and Paulie are alone aboard the rented boat, Tony questions Paulie about being the joke leak. When Paulie denies it and says, "It wasn't me, Ton'... That's right," Tony lifts his beer and drinks. It then cuts to a wide shot of the swaying boat, and at the top of the screen, we see a hand move atop the steering wheel at the helm; we even see the top of the hair of this crouching crew member as the wind blows, right before this shot cuts away.
24th Oct 2024
The Sopranos (1999)
Continuity mistake: At dinner, when Meadow gets upset, she leaves the table and heads upstairs, so Carmela leaves the table and follows her daughter. Then, when Livia gets insulted, she tells Junior to take her home, and she too leaves the table. The problem occurs when Tony tells Junior, "You mangia, Uncle Jun', she'll come back," and in the next shot facing Junior, the reflection on the door shows Carmela and Livia are still seated at the table.
24th Oct 2024
The Sopranos (1999)
Continuity mistake: When Janice goes to Livia's mailbox and retrieves the envelope with her disability check, the words "TOTAL DISABILITY" only appear on the check in the close-up, but not in the previous shot. Additionally, the silver screen door is gone between the first wide shot when Janice pulls the mail out of the mailbox, and the next close-up as Janice looks through the mail in her hands (she did not open the screen door between shots).

Visible crew/equipment: While Janice and Barbara are talking at the backyard barbecue, when Paulie appears, Janice makes a crack about him not being dead yet.

22nd Oct 2024
Hey Arnold! (1996)
Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Helga Blabs It All: When the boys get ice cream from the Jolly Olly ice cream truck, Arnold gets a chocolate popsicle, and Gerald gets an ice cream cone. Then, when Helga falls into Arnold's attic bedroom, all the boys stare at her, and as Helga backs out of the room, the ice cream cone Gerald holds changes to a chocolate popsicle.
20th Oct 2024
The Sopranos (1999)
Visible crew/equipment: While Sal and AJ are at the batting cage, Matt starts telling AJ about the German philosopher Nietzsche. As the camera moves backwards in this dolly shot, we can see two metal T-marks on the ground, as well as the dolly track at the left side of the screen.
19th Oct 2024
Twin Peaks (1990)
Visible crew/equipment: Donna overhears her father and mother discussing Laura's golden heart necklace and the picnic video. Then, just as Donna enters the bedroom, there's a white T-mark on the floor at the bottom of the screen.
15th Oct 2024
Hey Arnold! (1996)
Save The Tree / New Teacher - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: New Teacher: Arnold's classroom door vanishes from its door frame in various shots, then the door reappears in its proper place. That door's doorknob also switches between the right side of the door and the left side a few times.
15th Oct 2024
Hey Arnold! (1996)
Arnold Betrays Iggy / Helga and the Nanny - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: Arnold Betrays Iggy: When Arnold goes to Iggy's home near the start, the front doorknob is on the left side of the door, but the next time Arnold goes to see Iggy to bring him the box of chocolates, the front door opens the opposite way, with its doorknob now on the right side of the door. (00:01:20 - 00:06:40)
15th Oct 2024
Hey Arnold! (1996)
Other mistake: Snow: After Grandpa turns the street into an ice rink, it cuts to Arnold in the backyard (by the garage) of Sunset Arms where he's been stowing logs in a storage container. When Grandpa shows up in the backyard and tells Arnold, "You got no play ethic," we see the fronts of Green Meats and Art's Shoe Repair behind Grandpa, but that's impossible because Sunset Arms is on the same side of the street as those two stores; we should only see the buildings/stores that are across the street from the boarding house. (00:21:30)
14th Oct 2024
The Villain (1979)
Revealing mistake: During Cactus Jack's first trap failure while he's under Handsome's wagon, Jack loses his cowboy boots and pants. The camera follows the insane stretching suspenders, and when it cuts to Cactus Jack in his red long johns, the black booties for the stunt are visible at his feet/ankles; then next wide shot, that footgear is gone. Additionally, as Cactus Jack gets pulled toward his pants, it appears that he slides past his pants in the long shot, but is successful in the next close-up. (00:33:00)
12th Oct 2024
The Villain (1979)
Other mistake: Handsome and Charming head out of Snakes End (followed by the newlyweds) and begin their long journey. It then cuts to Cactus Jack before he begins the journey, and at the start of this shot as he places Whiskey's bit, we can see the signpost with three wooden arrow signs and the hillside behind him. This is the same location where Cactus Jack lays trap number seven, named "the tunnel in the hillside," on the next day during the journey; noticeable when Handsome and Charming arrive. (00:28:35 - 00:54:45)
12th Oct 2024
The Villain (1979)
Visible crew/equipment: After Cactus Jack shares with Whiskey his dream of buying a nice spread, when Cactus Jack lays trap number four with the rope across the road, he then leaps onto Whiskey, and in the two shots at this angle, we can see the moving shadow of the boom mic on the ground, at the bottom left corner of the screen. (00:40:25)
12th Oct 2024
The Villain (1979)
Continuity mistake: Cactus Jack's leather cowboy boots have block heels and spurs with rowels and jingle bobs. In quite a few shots throughout the movie, Jack's boots change to no-heel flat soles, and the spurs are missing, though we still hear the distinctive jangling of Cactus Jack's spurs.
8th Oct 2024
Blue Bloods (2010)
Visible crew/equipment: At the hospital, after Maria tells Danny about the busboy who was arrested for the same venue and same MO, it then cuts to Jaime undercover in the store. While Jaime walks toward Marco, the dealer at the counter, the camera moves at the same pace as Jaime, and we can see the reflection of the camera on the glass (between Jaime and the camera). (00:28:20)
8th Oct 2024
Blue Bloods (2010)
Continuity mistake: When Danny and Baez confront Carmine to clear a few things up, Carmine tells them to call his lawyer. Just as Carmine clicks his key fob and his car explodes, Carmine's coat is entirely unbuttoned, but when he's blown backwards and slams onto the ground, in the first overhead shot of Carmine lying on the ground, his coat is buttoned up. (00:24:20)
