The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti - S1-E8
Other mistake: Christopher Moltisanti fires a 2nd warning shot at a baker. The shot is fired at the floor but a mirror up on the wall behind the baker shatters. In the next shot and all subsequent shots, the mirror is undamaged. Now this gun was a prop gun, supposedly modified to fire blanks. How did the mirror shatter? It couldn't have been part of the planned shot. Christopher was aiming at the floor. (00:18:41)
The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti - S1-E8
Continuity mistake: When they drive in the Lexus, around 33 min into the scene, you can see the headrest on the driver's seat moving up and down as the shot changes from him to Tony and back. Happens several times. (00:32:55)
Visible crew/equipment: During the dinner scene, in some of the shots facing Junior, the reflection of the boom operator (wearing a watch) holding up the boom pole/mic is visible on the glass, toward the top left side of the screen. Additionally, in two shots facing Junior (POV beside Carmela's right shoulder), we can see part of a black reflector screen (collapsible type) between Junior and Carmela.
Continuity mistake: At dinner, when Meadow gets upset, she leaves the table and heads upstairs, so Carmela leaves the table and follows her daughter. Then, when Livia gets insulted, she tells Junior to take her home, and she too leaves the table. The problem occurs when Tony tells Junior, "You mangia, Uncle Jun', she'll come back," and in the next shot facing Junior, the reflection on the door shows Carmela and Livia are still seated at the table.
Continuity mistake: In the pilot Artie and Charmaine Bucco had two kids, Art and Melissa. But in this episode they refer to their daughter as Kiara and their son is never mentioned again.
Suggested correction: Nope. You should rewatch. Artie and Charmaine have 3 kids; Chiara is the eldest, and their two younger kids are Art and Melissa. In S1xE13 "I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano," Tony, Carmela, Meadow, and AJ wind up at Nuovo Vesuvio during the thunderstorm. Then Charmaine tells Meadow and AJ, "Chiara and her brother and sister are back in the kitchen." In S4xE6 "Everybody Hurts," Charmaine tells Artie, "We'll start working on your empire right after we pay the 10,000 dollars of orthodonture Melissa's gonna need this year."
Audio problem: In the first long shots of Visiting Day playing at the club, the lead vocal is heard, but the singer is standing well back from the mic and does not appear to be singing.
Continuity mistake: When Hesh and Massive Genius are talking on the porch, Hesh is leaning forward and picks up a glass of ice tea. A second later, in the next shot he is sitting back in his chair, and is no longer holding the glass.
Visible crew/equipment: After Tony gives Dr Cusamano the box of Cuban cigars, when the telephone rings, Tony walks over to answer it, and a crouching crew member is visible at the bottom right corner of the screen.
Continuity mistake: The scene where Hesh and Massive Genius are sitting down and drinking. Massive Genius has just requested that Hesh pay reparations money. Paulie then steps forwards, aggressively demanding "or what?" Behind him, Chris is standing by the white pillar. However, two shots and 2 seconds later, when the camera cuts back to Tony's holding Paulie back, Chris has completely disappeared from the veranda - he is neither behind Paulie or Silvio.
Nobody Knows Anything - S1-E11
Character mistake: When Tony tells Dr. Melfi he feels as though a safe might fall on his head, she replies, "a feeling of pending doom." A woman of her intellect and education should know the proper word is "impending." "Pending" means something awaiting a conclusion. "Impending" means about to occur.
Revealing mistake: When Tony buys the orange juice off the street vendor (just before he is attacked by the hitmen) you can see the magazines on the vendor's stand being blown around by the "heavy winds" that are present throughout the episode. However, if you look behind Tony, you can see the scenery is almost completely still. The "wind" is coming from just off camera. (00:27:17)
Factual error: During Tony's assassination attempt he struggles with one of the "hit men" for control of a pistol. One can see that the pistol does not contain a magazine.This would limit the shooter to 1 shot, providing the pistol is not equipped with a "magazine disconnect" if it is than it can not be fired at all. It seems unlikely that a "hit man" would be so ill prepared.
Visible crew/equipment: Livia and Junior have a chat about Tony while waiting in line for a movie matinee. It then cuts to the Soprano house, and in the next overhead shot of Tony sprawled on his bed, we can see the T-mark on the floor near the door. In a moment, Lilliana knocks and enters to remind Tony of his appointment.
Continuity mistake: At the hospital, when Agent Harris presents his business card in case Tony changes his mind, Harris holds his card at its bottom so it's up over his hand, but in the next shot facing Tony, Harris holds the card at its top so it's below his hand, and it continues this way in the next shot as Carmela takes it from his hand.
Visible crew/equipment: After Paulie and Silvio hug AJ and Meadow at the hospital, when Meadow tells them Tony is with Carmela, we can see the boom pole and mic's moving reflection on the glass, at the top of the screen. Then, as AJ tells Meadow that he doesn't believe it was a carjacking, the mic's reflection dips into view again on the glass.
Visible crew/equipment: While Corrado and Mikey are at Mariolina's wake, just as Corrado says, "Where he spills his guts on some shrink's carpet," we can see the yellow tape mark on the carpet where Corrado had been standing.
Visible crew/equipment: At dinner, when Tony bends down to kiss his mum, the moving boom mic's reflection becomes visible on the glass behind Livia. The reflection of the moving boom pole and mic continues to be seen during the dinner scene.
Visible crew/equipment: When Carmela and the kids exit Tony's room in the hospital, just as Agent Harris walks toward Tony, we can see the reflection of the boom pole and mic on the cabinet glass, near the right side of the screen.
I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano - S1-E13
Revealing mistake: When Artie visits Livia at the hospital there is a close-up of the newspaper that Livia is reading and it is obviously fake. Some of the articles look like they have been pasted into it and there are white strips of paper covering up headlines or replacing them with new ones. (00:16:50)
I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano - S1-E13
Revealing mistake: When the shrink locks the door on Tony, they argue and she calls the police. When she finally calms down she approaches the door to unlock it but you can see the door move before she ever sticks a key in it or touches the knob. (00:25:20)
