The Barbershop Quartet - S7-E3
Other mistake: The end credits list actor Burt Mustin as playing a character named "Jud", but while Andy and the rest are waiting for Howard to show up for practice, Andy, Wally, and Aunt Bee all use Burt Mustin's real name "Burt" instead of his character's name, "Jud." Then during the rest of the episode Andy still calls him "Burt" a few more times. (00:02:00)
7th Feb 2017
Other mistake: The end credits list actor Burt Mustin as playing a character named "Jud", but after Howard's introduction to everyone in The Lodge, when Andy and Howard are saying goodbye to all the members, Andy says, "See ya, Burt" to actor Burt Mustin. Then at the start of the voting scene even the subtitles read "Burt" instead of "Jud." (00:09:15 - 00:12:55)
7th Feb 2017
Continuity mistake: During the baseball game, when Opie slides into homeplate we can see the concrete mixer truck in the background beside the building, but when Helen shows Aunt Bee the photo she took of Opie the truck is gone. (00:09:40 - 00:23:25)
7th Feb 2017
Continuity mistake: When Andy and Floyd stop by Wally's station, Flora's wearing a striped uniform shirt and there are a bunch of cars lined up waiting for service. Then later, when Goober gets back from vacation and shows up at the station, in the first shot of the station Flora's wearing the striped shirt and all the cars waiting for service are the same as the earlier shot, but in the closeups Flora's now wearing a solid color uniform shirt. (00:06:05 - 00:09:20)

The Gypsies - S6-E23
Continuity mistake: While Andy and the townsfolk are at the courthouse during the storm, when The Gypsies walk in the two men are wearing wet rain ponchos and the woman is wearing a striped serape, but then she's wearing a wet raincoat, and it switches yet again in following shots. (00:21:45)
7th Feb 2017
The Legend of Barney Fife - S6-E18
Revealing mistake: When Andy and Goober enter the Taylor house Andy calls for Aunt Bee, and just as she walks out of the kitchen we can see the end of the set wall inside the kitchen. (00:14:20)
7th Feb 2017
The Legend of Barney Fife - S6-E18
Continuity mistake: At the start of the episode, while Barney's in Andy's kitchen he's wearing a shirt with large distinctive designs, but when he and Andy walk into the courthouse Barney's shirt has completely different designs (though it's the same type of shirt). (00:01:00 - 00:04:00)
7th Feb 2017
The Taylors in Hollywood - S6-E8
Revealing mistake: While the Taylors are watching the scene being filmed of the attempted jailbreak Gavin MacLeod plays the sheriff, but while he's fighting the Calhoun brothers it's the actor's stunt double who's actually doing the fighting. (00:17:45)
7th Feb 2017
The Taylors in Hollywood - S6-E8
Visible crew/equipment: After the studio's security guard tells Andy they're filming on stage 40, when it cuts to the Taylors walking onto the set we can see two chalk T-marks on the floor (one in front of Andy's feet). (00:13:00)
7th Feb 2017
Continuity mistake: When Goober and Warren are at the diner, things on the counter keep switching places while Goober eats his peanut butter, tuna, and ketchup sandwich. (00:09:00)
7th Feb 2017
The Bazaar - S6-E5
Continuity mistake: After Goober complains to Andy about Warren it cuts to Warren walking down the street, and when he moves the bucket of corn in front of the grocery store, the window display and the taped signs change/vanish between shots. (00:02:05)
7th Feb 2017
Malcolm at the Crossroads - S6-E3
Continuity mistake: At the start, Andy walks down the street and stops at the church steps to watch Ernest T. being a crossing guard, but when it cuts to the shot of Ernest T. we see the church steps yet Andy's gone, then when it cuts back to Andy he's still standing by the church steps.
7th Feb 2017
The One Where Ross Can't Flirt - S5-E19
Continuity mistake: After Joey runs out of the apartment to go make the fake videotape, when it cuts to Rachel walking back into the apartment the table with the tablecloth is quite far away from the front door, but when Caitlin knocks and Ross rushes to go flirt with her that table is near the door. (00:13:35 - 00:15:15)
7th Feb 2017
The Cannon - S6-E11
Visible crew/equipment: After Warren accidentally fires The Cannon, in the following closeup of Andy commenting that he shot a station wagon, the shadow of the moving boom and mic is visible at the lower left corner of the screen. (00:22:05)
24th Jan 2017
Visible crew/equipment: (Ep. 2) When The Doctor, Jo, and Dr. Tyler are taken into Omega's palace, in the first shot of the multiple passageways (right before Jo says that it looks like Aladdin's cave) the curved chalk actor's mark is visible on the floor, then we see it again in three following shots. Note that when they're all escorted further inside, just as Dr. Tyler comments about the matter/anti-matter not making sense, Jon Pertwee looks down, presumably to make sure he hits his mark.
24th Jan 2017
Continuity mistake: (End of Ep. 3 and start of Ep. 4) When The Third Doctor fights the dark side of Omega's mind, the rings that The Doctor wears on the pinky fingers of both hands switch to his ring fingers, then back again to his pinky fingers, between shots. Then as Omega chokes The Doctor, the ring on his right pinky vanishes between shots.
24th Jan 2017
Revealing mistake: (Part 4) After Omega takes off his mask and looks in the mirror, when he sees that his physical body doesn't exist he puts his mask back on and screams, but when he shouts, "If I exist only by my will, then my will is to destroy," Omega's mask pops up off his face, and we can see the actor's blackened face as he shouts the last bit of his dialogue. (00:07:10)
24th Jan 2017
Visible crew/equipment: (Part 3) After Omega has revealed himself to The Third Doctor, Jo, and Dr. Tyler, when he begins to speak privately to The Doctor the camera casts a shadow on Omega's body. Then after Omega turns around the boom mic dips into view at the top of the screen. And when Omega starts walking forward, the shadow of equipment (presumably the boom and mic) is moving on the far wall, near the lower left of the screen. (00:03:10)
24th Jan 2017
Continuity mistake: After Clara cancels lunch with Aunt Bee, when Bee walks over to the table there are two candle holders on the server and a large picture surrounded by four small pictures hanging over the server. However, when Opie runs to the table, the left candle holder and bottom left small picture are both gone in his closeups. (00:19:40)
24th Jan 2017
Revealing mistake: When Andy arrives at the studio for the publicity shots, while he's speaking to Mr. Michaels note that behind them we can see the Taylors' Mayberry kitchen cabinet/counter and a wall with their distinctive gold/silver design wallpaper. (00:03:50)
