Continuity mistake: During the show's opening credits for the entire run of the series, when Tony drives up to the NJ Turnpike toll gate, the lane 7 machine spits out a toll ticket, and Tony reaches for it. It then cuts to a close-up as Tony grabs hold of the toll ticket, but this ticket machine is now different; note all the stickers. The close-up was shot at another lane's ticket machine.

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.

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).
