(0 votes)

Web of Death - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Kojak is looking puzzled at the crime scene picture, using a magnifying lens. He lowers both hands when Ferro walks into the room, but he's holding them in the same position as before when the camera angle switches to a previously used one. (00:29:05)

Sammo

Web of Death - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When the sergeant tells Kojak that the wife of the victim took it "like a Spartan", the person behind him outside Kojak's office changes position between shots. (00:28:20)

Sammo

Web of Death - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Ferro tosses the incriminating piece of jewelry to his wife, her hands change position in her lap depending on the shot, and her hair is also parted over her shoulders in a radically different way. (00:25:30)

Sammo

Web of Death - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Kojak is speaking with Ferro after putting his partner in doctor's care. He sits down and pulls out his notepad. In the next shot, he whips it out of his pocket again. (00:19:20)

Sammo

Web of Death - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: If you look at the victim lying on the floor when Ferro just killed him, you can spot a rather noticeable hem of his nightrobe sticking out from under his leg. When later, Kojak gets on the crime scene, nobody has touched the corpse yet but the clothing has been tucked in. (00:06:10 - 00:13:40)

Sammo

Web of Death - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Ferro is arresting the two junkies. Strats searching the first one, and a man in a yellow-ish coat and a fedora walks behind them in the background. In close-up once Ferro asks "You call that dealing?" the same man walks the same path again. He will reappear again doing the same walk when Pinky says he swallowed the drugs at the end of the scene. (00:02:10)

Sammo

Siege of Terror - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: During the credits at the beginning of the episode, watch the camera car view of the street where the armoured van is parked ("Created by Abby Mann"). It's dawn and the van casts a very distinct shadow on the asphalt. Mere seconds later, the getaway car of the robbers gets in the intersection, and the lighting of the scene is flat, shot during a different part of the day. (00:01:35)

Kojak: You can't corrupt it. And you know why? Because to corrupt it, you've got to show how corrupt you really are.
