The Heart Attack - S2-E8

Revealing mistake: When the two paramedics get off the van to duke it out, look at George lying down in the stretcher. The pillow behind him bears in the last two shots faint purple coloring marks washed out from Jaso Alexander's makeup. (00:18:30)

Sammo

The Revenge - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: During Elaine's amazingly off-putting flirting with George's boss, she starts mentioning how people don't say "Bless you" as they used to. She is gesturing with her right hand pointing a thumb -but before her "Have you noticed that?" is over, she is already in a new shot with hands joined and fingers entwined. (00:16:00)

Sammo

The Revenge - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: George walked back into a meeting at his workplace pretending nothing happened. When his boss enters the room, George repeats in two separate the shots, differently, the gesture to hide his face behind a folder. The folder itself changed position before the boss arrived, since it was in his hand at first, then on the briefcase. (00:08:00)

Sammo

The Heart Attack - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: The belligerent paramedic shouts at the driver "I want that Chuckle back, do you hear me?" pointing a finger at the opening, but his arm is on his own leg in the following shot. (00:18:10)

Sammo

The Statue - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: The first time we see Ray, he kisses his fiancée's hand. Elaine in that shot is holding her papers, with the thicker black book closest to her chest. A couple of shots later when he bows to "Jerry, lord of the manor" the books in Elaine's arms have switched position. (00:05:50)

Sammo

The Statue - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: George had enough of Ray's pawn shop story and jumps up calling him a thief. Watch the couple at the table; the woman, wearing a purple sweater, has her hand on the man's arm in the reaction shot, when nothing of the sort was happening in the wider angle. (00:15:30)

Sammo

The Jacket - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: At the end of their strategic break in the men's room, George tosses his paper towel in the bin to the right; however the previous shot ended with Jason Alexander turning around having the towel in his left hand and glancing towards the basket on the left. (00:13:55)

Sammo

The Jacket - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: In the reaction shot with Alton Benes scoffing at George and Jerry's sissy choice of drinks, a woman with a coat in hand is walking behind him, towards the door. In the next shot, no trace of the woman, just someone in a bicolor puffer. (00:10:25)

Sammo

The Jimmy - S6-E19

Jimmy: Oh yeah, Jimmy's ready. Check Jimmy out. Jimmy's got some new moves. [Slips and falls from the water.] Jimmy's down.
