Remember When - S6-E15

Visible crew/equipment: While Tony and Paulie are alone aboard the rented boat, Tony questions Paulie about being the joke leak. When Paulie denies it and says, "It wasn't me, Ton'... That's right," Tony lifts his beer and drinks. It then cuts to a wide shot of the swaying boat, and at the top of the screen, we see a hand move atop the steering wheel at the helm; we even see the top of the hair of this crouching crew member as the wind blows, right before this shot cuts away.

Join the Club - S6-E2

Visible crew/equipment: During one of Tony's coma dreams, when the hotel elevator is out of order, Tony uses the stairway and then ends up falling down a flight of stairs. Just before he lands, we can see a crew member's hands holding a camera steady (filming the stunt double's close-up view) at the bottom left corner of the screen.

Cold Cuts - S5-E10

Audio problem: When Tony confronts Carmela in the backyard about the pool having been drained, when the shot changes to a camera angle inside the empty pool and Tony says "I thought we were getting along better lately", his lips don't match his lines. (00:15:49)

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)

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

Continuity mistake: Meadow takes the carton of milk out of the fridge and leaves it on the counter. Tony gets up and opens the fridge and the carton of milk is back inside. (00:11:01 - 00:11:53)

Snag.1

Pie-O-My - S4-E5

Revealing mistake: The high quality image of the footage of the show differs hugely with that of the footage of the horse races; revealing it's stock footage taken from a TV source, placed in the middle of the action.

Pie-O-My - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Corrado is having breakfast with his right hand resting on the table close to a glass of orange juice. When the angle changes, a frame later, the juice is in his hand already close to his mouth.

Sacha

Amour Fou - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the episode Carmella is reading a book on real estate. When a close up of the book is shown, she is at the beginning of chapter 1, yet when the camera angle changes she is about halfway through the book.

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.

Show generally

Other mistake: The set up of Dr Melfi's office makes no sense. Her office is in a building with other doctors,yet there's windows on the right side of her office where another doctor's office is.

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.
