Two and a Half Men

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Alan first meets Rose, she eventually says "He (Charlie) has a very musky scent" with her head turning to look at Alan. When the camera cuts to Alan, he says "uh huh" and Rose is all of a sudden looking straight ahead. (00:10:40)

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: While Evelyn is at Charlie's asking Alan if he's considered that there may be another man at Judith's "shacking up with her," Evelyn is wearing a blue 2-piece skirt suit, but in Charlie's close-up Evelyn's wearing a white suit with a red floral pattern when she's standing in front of Charlie, at the left side of the screen. (In the original pilot Evelyn is played by Blythe Danner wearing the floral suit, but she had to back out and was replaced by Holland Taylor, who's wearing the blue suit).

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: While Alan's sitting on the couch, Evelyn's talking to Alan "helping...through a very difficult time," and in the shots facing Alan all of the books on the table behind him, and also the books on the couch's side table keep changing - not just their position, all the books actually become different books. Additionally, in the shots facing Charlie, the books beside the chair and the books/CDs/DVDs on the bookcase change as well.

Yes, Monsignor - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: Alan is sitting at the kitchen table talking to his son Jake about a math test on which Jake got a bad grade. At the beginning of the scene Alan holds the open test in his left hand. When the camera switches back to him a second later the test is now in his right hand. Finally at the end of the scene the test is back in his left hand but is now folded. (00:04:50)
