McLintock! (1963)

McLintock! mistake picture

Continuity mistake: In Kate's hotel room, when she's trying to get away from GW she steps backwards through the hotel room's doorway onto the porch, and falls straight through the broken wood railing, but when GW looks down at Kate on the pile of hay, there's now a window behind GW, not a doorway, and clapboard siding has suddenly appeared on the hotel wall as well.

McLintock! (1963)

Continuity mistake: When Becky insists that GW shoot Dev, GW takes the starter pistol out of the cabinet and a shocked Dev raises his arms in the air, but as GW fires the starter pistol Dev's now holding his hat up in the air.

McLintock! (1963)

Continuity mistake: When Kate's trying to hide from GW she heads to the restaurant which has double-hung style windows with muntin bars, and red curtains across the windows' lower portions, but in the interior shots the red curtains have vanished, and when Kate jumps out the window it's now just a single pane with muntin bars used for the stunt.

McLintock! (1963)

Revealing mistake: When Kate's up on the ladder and falls backwards into the water trough, we can see that it's actually a stuntman who's wearing flats instead of the heels Kate's wearing.

McLintock! (1963)

Continuity mistake: After Becky tells GW to shoot Dev, GW uses the starter pistol to shoot at Dev causing a blackened mark on Dev's shirt above his belt, but when Dev's on the floor the blackened mark is higher up on his shirt near the pocket.

McLintock! (1963)

Revealing mistake: When Agard is lifted and dumped into the oil mining cart during the brawl at the clay mud pit the cart is pushed towards the pit, and in the wide shot as the cart rolls toward the camera we can see the rope attached to the bottom of the cart pulling it, just before Agard falls out.

Criminal Minds (2005)

Demons - S9-E24

Continuity mistake: While Reid's asleep in the hospital bed, Garcia places four Doctor Who figurines (one Dalek we don't see her place) on the overbed table - two Daleks, Matt Smith's Doctor, and David Tennant's Doctor. In the first shot Garcia's holding Smith's Doctor in her right hand and Tennant's Doctor in her left hand, but in the next shot those two figurines have switched hands.

Andy the Matchmaker - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Barney and Andy are looking at Barney's picture on the front page of the newspaper, first, the article has nothing to do with Barney or the arrest, and second, when Barney takes the paper from Andy he folds it with the front page on the outside, and the page we see is not the same front page from the closeup.

Andy the Matchmaker - S1-E7

Plot hole: When Barney's telling Andy about the poem written on the bank wall, Barney blames Opie and doesn't mention anything about Opie using chalk, but when Opie walks in Andy tells him, "Barney says there's a poem written on the wall of the bank, and that you were standin' along beside it with a piece of chalk in your hand," and then in a few moments Opie explains that some big kids pushed the chalk into his hands. So it's impossible for Andy to have known that chalk was used to write the poem, and not a marker, a pen, or a pencil.

The Andy Griffith Show mistake picture

Runaway Kid - S1-E6

Visible crew/equipment: After Andy talks to George's father on the phone, he gets up and stands near the fireplace while explaining to Opie why he broke his promise and called George's father, and when Opie's on the couch asking if he can run off sometime, we can see the white tape mark on the rug where Andy was standing moments ago.

Sheriff Barney - S2-E12

Other mistake: After Barney gets annoyed over Andy's lack of confidence in his ability to be a sheriff, Barney gets on the phone with Sarah and asks to be connected to the mayor of Greendale, then it cuts to an exterior shot and the parked car has plate number "DC 269," the same as other vehicles in some earlier episodes.

The Clubmen - S2-E10

Other mistake: After Andy turns down the offer to join the club the two men leave, and when it cuts to them driving away we see the license plate number is "DC 269," the same as some other vehicles in previous episodes.
