Soul Survivor - S6-E7

Continuity mistake: When Paige is trying to convince Piper and Phoebe that she needs to save Larry's soul, she has the Book of Shadows open to the page on vampires. In subsequent shots, the open page changes to two different demons; but Paige's hands are down by her sides the entire time, so she couldn't have flipped the pages over. (00:26:35)

Sword and the City - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: When Phoebe is walking the Dwarf to the door after finding out Piper pulled the sword from the stone, he steps outside and goes into fast-forward, then stops and goes back to normal speed as he sniffs a flower. During this, in the background, you can see Phoebe, who freezes the whole time. (00:18:40)

Sword and the City - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: When the sisters first see the lady in the lake, the demon off to the side throws a knife into her back, but the knife hits completely straight, as it would if the demon had been directly behind her.

Little Monsters - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: When Phoebe is told that Jason asked not to be disturbed she decides to go in anyway, and right before she enters Jason's office the lace-up on the back of Phoebe's top is very loosely tied so we see a lot of skin, but when she's inside Jason's office the lace-up is tied quite tightly so only a bit of skin is seen. (00:11:40)

Super Grover

Little Monsters - S6-E9

Other mistake: Paige's spell causes Darryl to acquire invulnerability and uncontrollable super strength. When he opens the door of the squad car, he accidentally rips it completely off. When he tries to put the suspect into the back seat, the man flies through the car and barrels out the other side, taking the other door with him. But immediately before this, Darryl high-fives several of his fellow officers, and they are unharmed. They should have been thrown off their feet and suffered multiple fractures in their hands.

Chris-Crossed - S6-E10

Plot hole: It's shown with the spell that the Halliwells leave for Chris in the attic that if something happens in the past, the future will immediately reflect that change. Chris had changed so much in the past that there should have been at least one thing different that mildly surprised him, even if he was careful to not give too much information to the sisters about the future.

Chris-Crossed - S6-E10

Continuity mistake: In this episode, Chris thinks back to when he went back to the past. When he and Bianca are on the tour of the manor, there are some costumes that have been worn by the charmed ones. But in the episode "Oh My Goddess (1)" Chris tells Phoebe that Paige died on that day, so how could she have worn something after she died? And if she did die that day, Chris would have never met her, since he was not yet born, and could not have learned to orb from her, as he says in "Spin City." However there are other inconsistencies with that story that Chris mentions later, seeming to suggest he lied about this to get the sisters onside. It may not be a continuity error but as it was never fully addressed in the show just what Chris was lying about (and he obviously told some) we cannot be sure.

Chris-Crossed - S6-E10

Continuity mistake: When Chris and Bianca go to the manor to get Chris to go to the past, which would end up him appearing in "oh my goddess"; he's only wearing a black shirt and pants. When he arrives to the past in "oh my goddess" he's wearing a jacket, red shirt, and sunglasses. He wasn't wearing that in Chris-Crossed. And he didn't have time to change to that outfit.

Witchstock - S6-E11

Plot hole: In the opening scene, Chris directs Piper and Phoebe on how to vanquish the amorphous demon. He says that it will attack "fast and hard" as soon as it senses Phoebe's magic when she levitates. But Chris had orbed out of the warehouse and back in, and the demon didn't react to the magic. Later in the episode, it is specifically attracted to a use of orbing, several times.

Witchstock - S6-E11

Continuity mistake: In this episode, it's 1967 and Grams is young and unrecognizable compared to her older self. But in "That 70's Episode," it's 1975 and she looks just like she does today, not to mention that she has two grandchildren. Grams sure ages quickly...

Witchstock - S6-E11

Plot hole: This episode takes place in 1967, and Penny (Grams) is married to a man named Allen Halliwell who dies in the episode. Allen is supposed to be Penny's "first husband," Patty's father and the Charmed Ones' grandfather. But it was previously established that Patty's father was named Jack, and he died in 1964. Also they hint that Patty is still little but we know she was born in 1950 so she would be 17.

Witchstock - S6-E11

Continuity mistake: Robin falls over backwards after Paige dumps a cannister of marbles onto the floor. But Robin wasn't moving at all when this happened. Trying to walk over marbles will make you fall. Standing still while marbles roll around and bounce off your feet? Not so much.

Witchstock - S6-E11

Plot hole: After Paige changes the past, the ghost of Grams changes from a no-nonsense demon-hunter into a pacifist hippie. So, apparently, we are now in an alternate timeline where Grams never became assertive, and stayed a hippie all her life. The episode went to great lengths to establish that if Grams had stayed a hippie, she and the Charmed Ones would have all died young. But the ghost of Grams was still middle-aged, instead of decades younger, and Wyatt and Chris were still there, but they wouldn't have been if their mother Piper had died as a child.

Prince Charmed - S6-E12

Continuity mistake: When Piper, Paige and Phoebe are having a food fight, Piper freezes the cake, then she throws it at Paige who suddenly has a mysterious stain on her top. Then Piper has orange food on her hands even though she hasn't touched anything orange, and the stain on Paige's top has gone.

Paige: Well, you wanted to live like us. Now you get to die like us.

Answer: That was a mistake in the series.

Also, the episode is called 'Babies First Demon' and this alone tells us that it's Wyatt's first time in the field (so to speak) and as the sisters say, they've done a good job of clearing up their own magical messes so far. Nobody really knows how advanced Wyatt's powers are, or will become. That's why the cleaners appear, to nip things in the bud. The Cleaners didn't want to chance that the sisters could clean Wyatt's magic up, just incase they couldn't. Therefore intervening themselves, just in case.

Chosen answer: When the cleaners first surface in season 6 it is mentioned that usually the girls have been able to clean up their own messes (as seen in season 3 episode 22 when Phoebe turns back time thus concluding in the death of Prue).

Answer: Because they wanted them to fix their own mistakes.
