6 revealing mistakes - chronological order

(4 votes)

Starring: Abie Ekenezar

Genres: Action, Drama, Sci-fi

Puppies and Kittens - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: At the end of the episode when they show Citizen Z, the computer on his left has data or some kind of code running down the screen. Right after he puts his glasses on, the pause button appears mistakenly on the screen, revealing that it's not legitimately a program running, but just a video the effects team setup.

Home Sweet Zombie - S1-E5

Revealing mistake: As the team is headed to Warren's hometown the show shows a clip of zombies in the field but it's the same 12 people (exact same outfits too) used in 11 different places in the exact same shot.

Murphy's Law - S1-E12

Revealing mistake: The lady that is with the other two guys that kidnapped Murphy decides to remove her magazine from her pistol. It's an airsoft pistol. The magazine has a front feeding area for 6mm BBs, and looks weird in general. She also has no ammo, as you can see the entirety of the internal spring - not bullets. And the magazine is weird too.

Rozwell - S2-E9

Revealing mistake: As the gang drives up to the space-ship diner, cars are whizzing by in the background. When they are driving to the base there's also a clip of a fire truck going down the highway in the distance.

Corporate Retreat - S2-E11

Revealing mistake: During the opening credits, just before they discover the hotel, 10K fires a round from his rifle. This strikes a medallion hanging from Doc's neck and the bullet ricochets and kills a zombie. 10K ejects the spent cartridge from his bolt-action rifle. This cartridge spins in the air and lands on rocks; however, what lands is not a spent cartridge, but a live round, with bullet intact.

White Light - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When citizen Z is searching for zombies, he approaches a door holding a pistol with an under-barrel attachment. When he goes through the door, the attachment has disappeared. (00:01:05)

Batch 47 - S2-E4

Question: In this episode, several teams of human "harvesters" wander through a greenhouse filled with vegetable-hybrid zombies, searching for specific seed pods that might cure the zombie virus. None of the harvesters survive very long inside the greenhouse, even though the translucent plastic/fiberglass greenhouse walls are never more than a few steps away. In fact, the prized "Batch 47" is discovered just feet away from the translucent wall. Why couldn't the harvesters escape from the zombies by simply charging straight through the flimsy greenhouse walls? Or, even better, why didn't they just tear out the flimsy walls from the outside and search for Batch 47 from around the perimeter? I mean, it's just a greenhouse, not Fort Knox.

Charles Austin Miller

Answer: When the plant zombies would attack they would wrap people with the vines and hold them, so they couldn't escape.
