(9 votes)

The Right Thing - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: Carter makes an upward motion and grabs Angel's paper cup of booze from her - but in the next shot there is no sign of the cup and he is holding a clipboard. There was no time for him to get rid of it.

The Right Thing - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: When Carter first starts to confront the drunk patients Angel and Nathan, the door to their room is open behind him. Angel falls to the floor and the shot shows the door is now closed. The shot goes back to Angel laughing and the door is ajar again. Then it's closed again, and then open when Susan comes into the room. All this happens within a few seconds.

The Right Thing - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: When Vuselich is lecturing Peter about his medical study, and we see Peter's face, his cap is pulled down over the top of his ears. When the shot is on Vuselich's face, we can now see the tops of Peter's ears. It continues like this for the whole scene.

The Right Thing - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: When Doug is outside with his father, and the shot is on Ray, we can see a lot of snow in the air, but when the camera goes to Doug, there is no snow at all. The snow distribution on his father's coat change from shot to shot as well, too much to happen in only a Split Second.

The Right Thing - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: Susan is at home, making drinks for Mark and her - she pours them drinks from the blender and leaves a little bit of liquid in the blender. They head for the living room and the blender suddenly has about 3 inches of liquid in it.

Love's Labor Lost - S1-E20

Continuity mistake: As Mark futilely pounds on Jodi O'Brien's chest, Carol can be seen in the background, removing her protective glasses with one hand. However, after the Time of Death has been called and they're showing the reactions of everyone present in the room (Susan, Carol, Carter, Lydia, Chen), Carol is seen taking the glasses off again, this time with both hands.
