Toodle-F***ing-Oo - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Janice goes to Livia's mailbox and retrieves the envelope with her disability check, the words "TOTAL DISABILITY" only appear on the check in the close-up, but not in the previous shot. Additionally, the silver screen door is gone between the first wide shot when Janice pulls the mail out of the mailbox, and the next close-up as Janice looks through the mail in her hands (she did not open the screen door between shots).

Bust Out - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Tony lets AJ steer while they're aboard The Stugots, in two long shots, AJ is wearing a PFD just as their boat's wake capsizes a small rowboat, but in all other shots, he's not.

Super Grover

House Arrest - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: After Carmela heads out, Tony grabs a Dove bar from the freezer and takes a seat at the counter. When Tony unfolds the Waste News, its front page changes between the close-up and side shots. The same thing happens between shots when Tony opens to the second page of the newspaper.

Knight in White Satin Armor - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When Tony says goodbye to Janice by the bus. A black fella in a hat has already walked past them both. But as the camera angle changes. The same fella walks past them again from 5 yards further back. (00:54:14)

Knight in White Satin Armor - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When Janice is trying on her wedding gown with Carmela, her tattoo is gone. However, in all the other shots, her tattoo is above her cleavage line, between her boobs. It's nowhere to be seen in the wedding dress shots.

Suggested correction: Actually, her tattoo is visible. The style of the wedding dress she had on was obviously chosen for the way that it NEARLY covered up the tattoo. It is easily seen if your eyes are not glued to her cleavage near the 19 minute mark.

Sorry. There is no way her tattoo is covered up. I looked at the prior engagement party scene and jumped to the wedding dress, this is an error. There is no covering it up.

The tattoo is there and it is definitely covered up. Look at her right boob, not left, since we are seeing a reflection of her in the mirror, and you'll find that tattoo all right.

Suggested correction: Actually there is more than one shot where you can't see the tattoo at all. It depends on the angle. In most shots the top of the tattoo is always visible and in others it's not at all.

Knight in White Satin Armor - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: In the morning, while Janice waits outside in the car, Livia starts to criticize Tony, and when Tony rushes out of the house, in the interior shot there’s a screen door. Then, in the next exterior shot, the screen door has vanished, and now the front door has a deadbolt cylinder as well as a door knob back plate.

Super Grover

Funhouse - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: When Artie visits Tony, he runs to the bathroom. Later in the scene, Artie and Carmela help Tony up to go to the bathroom, but Artie says, "Where're we headed?" as though he didn't know where the bathroom was.

Proshai, Livushka - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Tony's hair length alternates between a short buzz cut and longer in different shots in the scene where Sil, Paulie and Chris visit him after his mother dies.

Another Toothpick - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Bacala is telling Uncle Jun about his father and the accident, Uncle Junior gets angry and starts throwing things around, he is wearing glasses. You can see that in between throwing one of the items, he is not wearing his glasses, then he is wearing them again.

University - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: Tracey is cuddling Ralphie at home and places her hand on his belly. The left and right angles of her movement do not match: When she brings her hand towards herself, the following angle shows it on the opposite side.

Sacha

Proshai, Livushka - S3-E2

Christopher - S4-E3

Question: Was it Jimmy Altieri standing in the back of the crowd during the Columbus rally scene? He was killed in season one for being an FBI informant and here they probably used him as a stand in... If so, then that is some sort of mistake, because I think, it really is him. (00:15:50)

Answer: That's not Jimmy, just a look-a-like. Jimmy's short and stout, the guy in "Christopher" episode is tall and medium built. The hair is also different.
