Hercules: The Legendary Journeys

Pride Comes Before a Brawl - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Hercules and Nemesis are in the boat discussing her assignment, the shoreline behind Hercules doesn't move behind him as they speak (so the boat is lying still). But whenever the camera cuts to Nemesis, you see the background slowly moving away (so the boat is moving).

Armageddon Now: Part 1 - S4-E13

Character mistake: Callisto's sword is missing. When she appears in the Xena Season Three finale "Sacrifice", her sword has reappeared. It is never explained why Callisto doesn't have her sword during her three appearances on Hercules the Legendary Journeys.

The Enforcer - S2-E13

Question: Why send only one enforcer? Hera surely know what he can do so why not send a dozen to be sure? She can't have been that arrogant.

Answer: It's a matter of plot. Having multiple characters who basically would have the same purpose, to kill Hercules, complicates and confuses the story line. It would lose the focus on the characters themselves and the interaction between them. In film and literaturea, characters, plots, scenes, etc. have to be crafted in a way that serves the story in an understandable and satisfying way for the viewer.
