Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Show generally

Continuity mistake: Since Dax's spots were stencilled on individually every day, the shapes and patterns have a tendency to change slightly from scene to scene in any given episode.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Unless you can cite a specific instance where the change is obvious (taking stills and minutely comparing the patterns doesn't count), this is much too vague to count as a mistake.

The Sons of Mogh - S4-E15

Revealing mistake: As Kurn is chastising Worf in the infirmary, the actor's prosthetic nose has become detached from the rest of the Klingon make up. You can see the nose wobbling around as he talks.

If Wishes were Horses - S1-E16

Trivia: Buck Bokai, a baseball player from the 21st Century, who becomes "real" in this episode, broke Joe DiMaggio's consecutive hitting streak in 2026. While he's not physically seen or referred to by name, this fact is mentioned in the 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' episode "The Big Goodbye."

Chosen answer: No. He's given his name, that's all. Nothing there that might lead to a paradox. If he's gone into detail about his time travelling, that might cause an issue or two, but simply stating his name does nothing.

Tailkinker

Answer: No more so than Sisko posing for a photo in the 21st century while pretending to be Gabriel Bell.

Answer: His last name is something Kirk will forget, since he was on temporary assignment and essentially passing through.
