Battlestar Galactica

Fragged - S2-E3

Other mistake: In the CIC, Tigh challenges Apollo and asks why he isn't in the brig. Shortly after Apollo begins to explain the plan for the search and rescue of the Raptor downed on Kobol. He refers to it as "Raptor 3" when it is Raptor 1 they are looking for. Raptor 3 was destroyed when they first jumped to Kobol, Raptor 2 escaped back to Galactica, and 1 fell to Kobol. The Raptor on Kobol is referred to as Raptor 1 throughout the rest of the episode and on preceding episodes.

The Farm - S2-E5

Other mistake: After she is sprung from prison and sneaks off the Galactica, President Roslin makes an appeal to the fleet to follow her ship to find the servant of the gods with the arrow of Apollo on Kobol. She is presumably speaking about Starbuck. But Starbuck was sent to and retrieved the arrow of Apollo from a museum on Caprica.

Escape Velocity - S4-E4

Other mistake: In the intro, when Tigh, Tory and Tyrol meet, Tigh is wearing Admiral's rank insignia of his uniform. His correct rank is Colonel.

Battlestar Galactica (2003 Miniseries) - Part 2 - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: In the last battle scene in the miniseries, above Ragnar, all the civilian ships Jump away and Commander Adama orders all the vipers to land inside Galactica's landing bay. At one point, Dualla reports that two vipers are still out in the fight - Starbuck and Apollo. When Starbuck pushes her viper and Apollo's towards the landing bay, there's a shot of one of the basestars firing a missile, which hits Galactica. In this scene, we can see (and hear) 3 vipers, one of which is firing at a Cylon raider in the distance. They couldn't be Starbuck or Apollo, since Starbuck's viper and Apollo's were joined together and the mystery vipers are not, nor are they any of the other pilots, since only Starbuck and Apollo's vipers were still out, as Dualla has stated.

Trivia: When Laura Roslin is in the doctor's office, just before the doctor walks in and tells her about having cancer, there is a wide camera shot through the large ceiling window of ships flying by outside. If you look closely you will see one of the ships is Serenity from the TV show Firefly.
