And the Children Shall Lead - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: The stardates of Starnes' entries are 5025.3, 5032.4, and 5038.3 But Kirk gives the stardate of when they arrive at the beginning of the episode as 5029.5, so apparently Starnes made two entries after he died.

Continuity mistake: When Gorgon the Angel is on the bridge with the children, the positions of the children are different depending if the shot is from the rear of the children or the front.
Is There in Truth No Beauty? - S3-E5
Continuity mistake: At the dinner for Miranda, Kirk drains his glass. No one refills it, but it's nearly full again a few shots later. (00:08:25 - 00:10:35)
Suggested correction: Kirk's glass is not empty at 8:25, it is the top of the decanter in front of his chest that looks like an empty glass in the shot. Later Kirk empties his glass during toasts and refills his own glass as he watches Marvik leave the room.

Continuity mistake: Natira orders the landing party to kneel before the oracle. Spock does so about a foot-and-a-half to McCoy's left. As the shots change, Spock "jumps" to McCoy's immediate side, then back to his original position, etc. (00:10:35)
