Smallville

Krypto - S4-E14

Other mistake: In episode 4-14: "Krypto," Genevieve tells Jason that the heirs of a 17th century woman named Gertrude are in danger. She then tells him that they themselves are "Gertrude's ancestors." But she must mean descendants, which means the opposite of ancestors.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: After Lois hits the dog, she exits her car and runs to the dog. As she passes the back of the car, her tail lights are off. When she reaches the dog, her tail lights are on.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: When Chloe pulls up to Clark's house there are patches of snow everywhere. While Clark hears the dog crash through the fence the fields are visible through the screen door and there is no snow on the ground at all.

Visible crew/equipment: As Jonathan is being attacked by Hercules you can see that Jonathan, or his stunt double, has on a arm cuff that is used for protection of attack dogs.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: Clark goes to see Lex about the dog. Lex, who was about to start a game of pool, breaks a fresh rack. Lex then goes to make his second shot from near the side pocket and as he does you can see there are two striped balls near the rail close to Lex's cue stick. Just after he takes his shot those balls are gone even though those balls had not been hit.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: After Krypto comes around the fence we hear one of the two guys say "You got all the bags out of the truck, right?". The camera then pans over to the van and you can see, under the rear of the van, two gas containers. There is a metal one on the left and a plastic one on the right. Krypto starts to run for the truck and we see the containers again only now the metal one is on the right and the plastic one is on the left.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: While talking about what to name the dog there are several shots of the dog and the metal chain is gone. Then, right at the end of the scene, as the dog puts his paw over his nose, the chain is back.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: When checking out the armored car robbery, Clark tells Lois to turn left. We then go to on out of car shot where the big red letters of the GMC that Lois is driving are visible. When the 4x4 skids to halt shot its GMC logo is covered in black tape.

Suggested correction: The guys aren't thrown against a brick wall. They're thrown against the side of an old wood shingled shed.

Krypto - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: Before Clark throws the two bad guys against the side of the barn there is no snow falling at this point. When the shot switches to Krypto saving Hercules you can see that now it is snowing rather heavily. This is far too fast to happen naturally.

Krypto - S4-E14

Revealing mistake: As Krypto presses the button to open Hercules' cage you can hear the button beep as if it has been pressed but the green light is still on. Earlier the beep which means the button worked also turns off the green light.

Krypto - S4-E14

Factual error: Clark huddles over Krypto to protect him from the blast of the exploding van. He does not cover Krypto's head before the blast of fire hits them yet Krypto shows no sign of damage. At the very least the fire should have singed his fur.

Suggested correction: There's nothing to suggest a dog with super powers would get singed from the blast. He's already been seen jumping through fire and Clark carried him through the fire again with no fur being singed.

Krypto - S4-E14

Plot hole: The vials of kryptonite steroids used on the dogs are in simple glass vials sitting on top of the dog cage. Clark gets into the back of the van to rescue Krypto but does not feel the effects of the kryptonite until the vials fall off of the cage and break open.

Shimmer - S1-E10

Lana Lang: That's the thing about Clark Kent. He's not always there when you want him... But he's always there when you need him.

Hero - S7-E13

Trivia: When Clark confronts the Flash in his hotel room, he reads off the fake IDs Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West. Those are the secret identities of the first three men to be called the Flash in the comics. Also, this Flash says his name is Bart, like Bart Allen, the teen hero formerly known as Impulse and currently being called "Kid Flash." (00:10:35)

More trivia for Smallville

Answer: In the comics, Krypto is a dog from Krypton who was used as the passenger in a test launch by Jor-El, Superman's father, before he launched the actual rocket taking his infant son to Earth. Krypto's capsule was involved in a mishap, sending it out of Kryptonian orbit and eventually found its way to Earth where he linked up with the young Clark Kent. Like any native of Krypton, Krypto has superpowers on Earth. In Smallville, the dog is a standard Earth dog who has been experimentally injected with kryptonite, giving him super-strength for a limited period of time, who escapes and links up with Clark (who suggests the name Krypto, ostensibly because of the dog's cryptic origins). It doesn't take too long for the dog's strength to fade, and the Kents decide to keep him, although they ultimately name him Shelby, after a dog that Martha Kent had in childhood.
