Star Trek: The Next Generation

Datalore - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: When Lore backhands Worf in the turbolift, his eyes close but open back up as he is sinking down. Then, in the close-up, his eyes are closed again.

Conspiracy - S1-E25

Continuity mistake: Lt. Commander Remmick has three solid pips on his uniform when Admiral Quinn is beamed to the Enterprise, implying his rank to be Commander rather than Lt. Commander. In all other shots in the episode, his rank is displayed as Lt. Commander. (00:25:11)

The Big Goodbye - S1-E12

Audio problem: Near the end, when Leech points his gun at Crusher, there is the sound of him cocking the weapon. However, when we see his gun immediately thereafter, the hammer is in the uncocked position.

Code of Honor - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Yar is transported back to the ship her weapon was on her left arm. When on the transporter pad the weapon is on her right arm.

Datalore - S1-E13

Character mistake: When the away team transports down to the planet, Data is wearing three full rank pips denoting the rank of a full Commander, rather than his actual rank of Lieutenant Commander. (00:09:39)

The Neutral Zone - S1-E26

Revealing mistake: In the sickbay, the wall where the biobeds are located can be easily seen as a wall used for what would be in the Conference lounge. The alcoves have a fabric covering the windows, and it appeared to be a hastily done redress.

Movie Nut

Encounter at Farpoint (2) - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: The computer is directing Commander Riker toward L.C. Data in holodeck area 4-J. As he walks along the corridor the computer helps him by saying that he should go to "the next hatchway on your right." Then Riker turns left (according to the way he was going) to enter the holodeck.

Deja Q - S3-E13

Picard: Return that moon to its orbit.
Q: I have no powers! Q, the ordinary!
Picard: Q, the liar! Q, the misanthrope!
Q: Q, the miserable! Q, the desperate! What must I do to convince you people?
Worf: Die.

Skin of Evil - S1-E23

Question: Near the end when they are in the holodeck for the memorial ceremony for Lt. Yar, Dr. Crusher's uniform is green and seconds later it is blue. After watching it several times, it does not appear to be a trick of the light. What happened here? Why would she have on a green uniform in the first place?

Chosen answer: The uniform does indeed change colour. It may be due to the need for a green screen in part, or perhaps some lighting altering our perception. That being said, it certainly looks green at the start, blue thereafter.

The show has been done in HD now and not sure if they fix this problem.
