Matlock

The Stripper - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: In the (deliberately poorly lit) scene where Doug's friend hurts her hand, look at the moment when she picks up the shard of glass; it goes nowhere near the area where the bandage appears later. (00:26:10)

The Stripper - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Matlock walks by mistake inside the dressing room. Two girls with their bare backs to the camera stare back at him. We see Matlock close the door a moment later, and there's just a very much clothed girl where the two naked ladies would have been. (00:21:15)

The Stripper - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Ben and Charlene Matlock visit the precinct and give The Gift to the proud new daddy, Ben teases him, saying that it's so that the boy will dress better than his father. The guy acknowledges the joke, pointing at Matlock in a friendly way. Nothing in his hand, then all of a sudden he is holding a cigar. (00:06:00)

The Stripper - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: Carla's kid at the beginning of the episode asks her to stay with her and sleep on the couch, "Please, Mum, please?" Notice the book in his hand change position between shots. (00:02:20)

The Fisherman - S2-E22

Continuity mistake: Matlock is inside a jail cell, speaking to a man who has been accused of murder. In an outdoor scene, someone throws a raw egg at the window as Matlock looks out. Inside the cell, as Matlock turns away from the window, the splattered egg has vanished.
