Continuity mistake: Xena leaves Darius' house, where she forgets her chakram. Then there's a shot of her riding Argo, with the chakram attached to her hip. Later Darius shows up to bring the 'missing' chakram to her.
Revealing mistake: When Xena 'dies', her pulse is checked, and they can't find one, yet you can see her pulse in her neck. (00:30:30)
Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts - S1-E12
Revealing mistake: At the end when Xena is fighting Deiphobus, he pushes her up against a large rock, every time she hits the rock it moves, as if it were foam.
Death Mask - S1-E23
Continuity mistake: When Xena and Toris are in the dungeon and the guards come in, Xena's boots change for a moment, then change back.
Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts - S1-E12
Visible crew/equipment: As the people of Troy are about to be attacked by the warriors in the horse, the camera pans up to the side of the wall where Deiphobus is talking with another soldier. You can see a crew member crouching down behind them wearing a white and grey shirt. (00:30:35)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where the young woman is going to commit suicide, Xena shows her a necklace. In the wide shot Xena is showing the wood part. In the close up you see the emblem.
Revealing mistake: When Gabrielle is hitting her staff against the tree and screaming, if you look carefully for the last hit, the staff is bent. Most of their props were rubber with a metal rod inside them. The actress bent the metal rod because she was hitting so hard.
Revealing mistake: When Xena is explaining to Gabrielle what happened at Cirra, her native New Zealand accent can be plainly heard when Xena says "ordinary".
Continuity mistake: When Xena and Callisto charge each other on horseback, Callisto cuts Xena's right arm. When Xena turns Argo around, the cut has switched to her left arm.
Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts - S1-E12
Revealing mistake: In the beginning battle, as the Trojans fight from the top of the gates of the city, one falls off. The entire Stone Wall shakes when he hits it.
Visible crew/equipment: In the shot where Xena is swimming, you can see she is wearing flippers in the long shot. (00:03:40)
Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: In the first battle, Xena throws the chakram and it lands in a guy's chest. We see her kick another warrior with her chakram on her belt. Then she runs and pulls it out of the 1st warrior. (00:07:35)
Continuity mistake: Xena's sword is partially out of the scabbard in the frontal shot yet fully in the scabbard in the over the shoulder shot. (00:01:20)
Factual error: The error begins in this episode and continues in Season 1 Episode 12: "Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts." Near the end of The Reckoning, Xena and Ares are talking about making Xena "the architect of a new world". Xena says that she'll need an army. Ares tells her she can have anyone she wants. She mentions Achilles and Agamemnon in her list of warriors and then follows up by saying "they're long gone." In "Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts," the Trojan War is going on. This is historically inaccurate as Achilles was killed in the Trojan War and Agamemnon was the leader of the Greek forces in the Trojan War and wasn't killed until after it was over. (00:36:25 - 00:37:00)
Continuity mistake: When Xena starts chasing down Callisto after the attempt on the Oracle's life she has her sword in the sheath on her back, as can be plainly seen when she jumps on Argo. A couple of seconds later, there are a few shots of her charging after Callisto without her sword, which comes back in the sheath once the chase gets in open field. (00:23:00)
Is There A Doctor in the House? - S1-E24
Revealing mistake: After Gabrielle's been wounded, there's a scene where she starts thrashing violently. A little after that, Hippocrates declares her dead despite the fact that you can see her breathing in the previous shot.
Revealing mistake: When Marcus is hanging off a wall in Hell and under attack from a harpy, there's a shot of Xena jumping on said wall to help him. When she lands, you can see the pavement give in a little, like it's made of rubber instead of stone. (00:35:45)
Revealing mistake: When Xena is fighting Celano, right after he grabs his knife to try and kill her, the shot changes to Xena, who after dropping back to the ground is supposed to be unsheathing her sword, but actually has it out already and just pretends to. (00:39:00)
Continuity mistake: When Callisto and Xena first battle on horseback, Xena knocks Callisto's sword to the ground and Callisto escapes. When Callisto is training with Theodorus and the army at their hideout, her sword has reappeared, although she didn't pick it back up at the village.
