Saving Souls - S2-E5

Audio problem: At the end of the episode during the Old Time Religion song, we see a few people mouthing the words to the song but their lips are not really in synch, same with their clapping.

Where the Heart Is (1) - S2-E6

Factual error: During the arrival at Beacon Hill, Colleen tells the girls during tea that the streets in Colorado Springs are all dirt, not the cobblestones as corrected by one of the girls (when Colleen referred to the Boston streets as rocks). When, in fact, several road scenes around Boston in several scenes are dirt or dried mud.

Best Friends - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: Near the beginning when Colleen and Becky are talking to the boy, there is a boy walking in the background. When he loses his hat, he is behind the boy talking to the girls. In the next shot he is already behind the two girls, which is quite a great distance to cover in a split-second. (00:06:30)

The Orphan Train - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: When the orphan is trying to steal the cigar's from Mr. Bray and has to smoke two of them at the time, in one shot, both of them are only half lit, in the next shot they are burnt down about half an inch. (00:35:50)

The Abduction (1) - S2-E22

Visible crew/equipment: Matthew is talking to Hank in the saloon about Hank's horse that Brian wants. After Hank agrees to let Brian work for him to pay for the horse, Matthew walks out of the saloon. The camera pans to the left slightly and a microphone can be seen moving behind Hanks head. (00:32:30)

Lindsay LeValley Mackey

The Library - S3-E5

Other mistake: Dr. Mike spots a charred Bible within the charred piles of books, and heads into the church. The Reverend is giving a sermon on morality, and offers Dr. Mike the floor and she briefs about certain stories in the book, which would be considered scandalous, without mentioning the book's title, then hands it to the Reverend who agrees such stories are scandalous, until he turns it over, to see that its 'The Holy Bible'. Being a Reverend, he should know The Bible cover to cover, but reacts surprised or shocked over the mentioning of the scandalous stories. (00:36:00 - 00:41:00)

A Washington Affair (1) - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: Jesse and Brian enter the President's office from The Secret passage shortly after Sen. Steward and Capt. Burgoyne leave. When the two boys hear the door rattle, Jesse whispers to Brian that somebody's coming and they race off Right. The President's desk is still in 3/4 view, and remains so as Burgoyne re-enters and goes to the desk, noticing the open cabinet door, which he checks. He hears movement and voices a threat, then goes to check the curtains only to find nothing. The camera then pans down to show Jesse and Brian hiding scared under the desk. Given the brief timespan, the two boys could not possibly have moved there without Burgyone noticing their presence.

Ladies' Night (2) - S3-E12

Audio problem: Just before Dorothy has her operation, Mike is seated at her desk looking through her medical books. Sully pays a visit to comfort her. During their moment, you can hear slight foot shuffling from the camera crew in the foreground - which is not coming from the outside. Also, you hear a slight grunting during a pause in their conversation.

Ladies' Night (2) - S3-E12

Visible crew/equipment: Loren wakes Dorothy in the middle of the night to mention selling the store and taking her on a trip to New York. While seated at her bedside, you can see shadows of a crew member on the bed pillows next to her, and hear some muffled foot movement while Loren is seated, talking to her.

Ladies' Night (2) - S3-E12

Other mistake: In the scene where Dorothy decides to join the church picnic (just before her operation) Grace is talking to her and hands her a glass of cider as Robert E. approaches. The sky is partly cloudy, but the lighting changes slightly during the shot, and at one moment, appears too bright on Dorothy just before she sets the glass down and walks away.

Ladies' Night (2) - S3-E12

Visible crew/equipment: When Sully visits Mike at the clinic, after dark, to console her over Dorothy's health condition. Watch as he moves past the window. You can see two control room blue screens in its reflection, alongside a boom mic, and the shadow of a long-haired crewman, who stands up, and then sits back down. Though the camera moves behind a potted plant on Mike's desk to conceal it all.

Cooper vs Quinn (1) - S3-E17

Plot hole: Worst writing of any episode. Mike is more than familiar (and associated) with public law and certain rights, given her position as a licensed physician, and the factor that she herself, and members of her extended family are lawyers or in knowledge. Yet Ethan is able to trip her up repeatedly during the course of this trial, incl. 'lack of proofs' etc. Whence Mike should have been able to rest her case without worry or thwart.

Cooper vs Quinn (1) - S3-E17

Plot hole: In any court case, as applies to this, an "objection" would be applied and sustained or overruled in parlance to Ethan's defamations of Mike. Yet is never once is it called by the judge or anyone appointed including Jake (which by his ignorance of the law perhaps applied).

pgsgrad16

Traveling All-Stars - S4-E2

Audio problem: The audio goes weird when Loren stands up to show the townsfolk the Travelin' All Stars sign during the meeting, from half-muted to full to half-muted again, like he's obviously wearing a body mic in the wrong spot instead of being under a boom.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: He was out. It was obvious that he was out when Quinn said he caught it. There would be no point in having to call him out. Otis is then seen telling his players to return to their bases because they could be tagged out. But he doesn't bother going anywhere because even he knew he was out. And we do see the players get called out.

Dr. Michaela 'Mike' Quinn: I could use some advice... from someone who's had experience.
Dorothy Jennings: Oh. Well, don't you worry. It's as easy as falling off a log.
Dr. Michaela 'Mike' Quinn: Remember, I've never... fallen off a log.

Legend - S5-E9
