The Doodle Bug - S1-E4

Other mistake: Lucy Lawrence enters the stage depot in Bentonville and introduces herself as the new schoolteacher. A young boy exclaims, "School! Phooey!" Mrs. Lawrence says, "Well, school isn't all reading and writing and sums, Edgar." She had no way of knowing his name.

The Sheriff of Santa Rosa - S1-E23

Other mistake: Gene is chasing Ted Nolan, who is believed to have ties to a gang of cattle rustlers. Both men are on horseback. A long shot of Gene riding across a range is followed by a long shot of Ted riding across the same range so it appears Ted is chasing Gene instead of the other way around.

Rock River Feud - S2-E16

Other mistake: Pat, riding a wagon pulled by two horses and headed to Rock River, slows to look at a sign. The sign, shown in close-up, says "ROCK RIVER, 5 MI." An arrow points to the right - but that is the direction Pat is coming from. The arrow should be pointing to the left.

Rock River Feud - S2-E16
