Parents Day - S5-E6
Continuity mistake: When Grandpa enters and exits Arnold's bedroom, the door opens the opposite way in various shots, with the doorknob on either the left or right. Additionally, the light switch beside the door appears and disappears, between shots.

Visible crew/equipment: After Paris hails Tuvok about the problem in the mess hall, a brawl breaks out. When the new Hirogen Alpha enters the galley to access the com relay, just as this Alpha removes the front panel in order to transmit a signal, the actor's green tape mark is visible on the floor. (00:39:00)
Continuity mistake: At the start, when the carful of teens pulls up alongside the convoy's lead vehicle, in the first shot of that lead driver (his reflection is in the round wing mirror), the side of the hood reads "U.S. Army" and "276***," the partial serial number beneath. Then, in the next shot and subsequent shots, the lead vehicle's serial number reads "1B7731" to the side of the hood. Just to add, when Spalko arrives at Hangar 51, her vehicle has that "276" serial number with license plate W-539. (00:01:05)
Continuity mistake: At the start, just as the carful of teenagers joins the convoy of military vehicles on the road, there are very long shadows being cast on the road, which vanish in the following shots. Their long shadows return when the convoy turns onto another road, but disappear again as they arrive at the main gate. (00:00:45)
Continuity mistake: During the siafu ant attack, while fisticuffs ensue between Indiana and Dovchenko, note the direction of Dovchenko's belt, with its buckle prongs to his left. Then, when Dovchenko falls backwards and the ants swarm all over him, his belt is worn around his waist the opposite way, with its prongs to his right (neither are flipped shots). (01:26:55)
Visible crew/equipment: During the jungle chase, Marion jumps out of the truck, leaving Dovchenko driverless. A few shots later, Spalko fires on the two amphibious vehicles, and when Mac removes his cap to check his head, the actor's modern wired device (earbud or mic perhaps) drops out from under his scarf/shirt and hangs over his shirt. Later, in the chamber with the crystal skeletons, Mac admits to lying about the CIA, then as Spalko climbs the chamber stairs, it looks like her lav mic is a bit visible between two upper buttons. (01:17:10 - 01:44:15)
Continuity mistake: When Indiana is with Mutt while the boy rides the motorcycle, Indiana's shoes change; note the soles change from heels to flat rubber-type soles, then back to heeled soles.
Continuity mistake: At Hangar 51, after the Soviets open the crate with the mummified alien, Indiana grabs his whip and secures guns for Mac and himself. In the close-up and wide shot, Indiana is gripping the whip within his palm, but in the next shot, the whip is held with only his index finger; then it's back to being gripped in his palm. Also, while Indiana is aiming the gun at Spalko, the military jeep behind him changes its distance, depending on the shot. (00:13:15)

Other mistake: In the FTI records room, when Arnold and Gerald open safe deposit box 999, the box is quite empty with a mirrored surface, and we can see the reflection of Scheck appearing behind them. The problem is Scheck's reflection is not backwards. (00:50:50)
1st Sep 2024
Continuity mistake: Inside the FTI records room, Scheck tells Arnold and Gerald, "My guards will now lock you away where you won't cause any more trouble." As the FTI guards approach the boys, Gerald notices the two crisscrossed cutlasses hanging on the wall, with scabbards of different colors, but when Gerald reaches for those two weapons, the two cutlasses are facing the opposite way. Additionally, the lighter scabbard tip changes color, and the hooks they hang on also change, from transparent to silver. (00:51:50)
1st Sep 2024
Continuity mistake: Scheck calls Nick and informs him the kids have a copy of the document on videotape, and they're headed uptown. During the following scenes, both Nick and Big Bob have medical adhesive tape on their cheeks (due to their earlier fight). In some shots Nick's cheek has two crisscrossed tape strips, but in other shots only a single strip of tape; the changes go back and forth. (01:03:20)
1st Sep 2024
Continuity mistake: When Murray is told it's Mona's neighborhood that's to be demolished, he begins to speed. Murray then tells the kids to pray for the hunk of junk bus to hold together long enough to get them uptown in one piece. In the next shot, the rear right tire's hubcap flies off, but in the following shots, that hubcap is back on the rear right tire. (01:00:35)
1st Sep 2024
Continuity mistake: After Scheck catches the duo in the FTI records room with safe deposit boxes, Scheck removes a painting from the wall while he rages on about the tomato incident; then he destroys the painting. However, when Arnold fights off the guard with the mustache, that painting is intact and back up on the wall in this shot. (00:51:30 - 00:51:55)
1st Sep 2024
Other mistake: While Arnold and Gerald are headed to FTI on the city bus, Murray tells them about Mona. When Murray says, "You meet a girl, you think it's forever," the animation is a bit skewed, as it shows the steering column going through Murray's right thigh. (00:46:25)
1st Sep 2024
Continuity mistake: When Arnold and Gerald go to see Mr. Bailey at the Office of Information, Bailey's tie has diagonal stripes that change direction to the opposite way in some shots. (00:26:15)
25th Aug 2024
Continuity mistake: At the Grey Havens, just as Gandalf stands before his four brave Hobbits and says, "I will not say, 'Do not weep,' for not all tears are an evil," note the design on Pippin's scarf. When Gandalf says, "It is time, Frodo," the pattern on Pippin's scarf is entirely different, though it's the same style scarf. It then reverts back to the previous pattern when Frodo boards the White Ship.

Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Helga Blabs It All: While Helga hides in the overhead ventilation shaft, the vent cover has either four, five, or six slat openings in various shots.

Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Harold the Butcher: The front door of Mr. Green's meat store has either "Green Meats" or "Green's Meats" printed on the door's window.
9th Aug 2024
Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Harold the Butcher: Mr. Green's meat store has a shopkeeper bell over its front door that vanishes in some shots, then it reappears. For instance, the bell is gone when Arnold is in the store while Harold sits across the street, but we hear it jingle and then the bell reappears when Harold enters the store.
9th Aug 2024
Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Harold the Butcher: In some shots of Mr. Green's meat store, its front door handle switches to the opposite side. Such as at the start, when Harold stops in front of Mr. Green's meat store because he's hungry. Also, while Harold sits across the street from the meat store, Green asks Arnold if Harold is still out there, and the store's front door handle is on the wrong side of the door. Next shot, as Arnold exits the store, the door opens properly. (00:19:30)
