Dark Angel

Pilot (2) - S1-E2

Plot hole: In the hoverdrone footage, Peter goes down suddenly during the gunfight, apparently from a wound to either the head or torso. However, there is no wound or blood on him and even his bulletproof vest has no marks except for the normal studs. If he had been hit in an extremity he would not have limply collapsed instantly. Sonrisa's goons are using automatic weapons that should have no trouble hitting him many times from that range of only a few meters. (00:54:00)

Prodigy - S1-E7

Plot hole: Darius is fooled by Max's life size shadow walking on the projection screen into believing she is actually there. There must be a projector focused on the screen centered in the room to project on the flat surface without distortion, either in the small room behind Darius or hanging from the ceiling. If it was in the small room, Darius' shadow would appear on the screen as he was standing in the middle of the room, and Max's ruse wouldn't work because she would be behind Darius and projecting a much larger shadow. If the projector was on the ceiling, there is no way Max's shadow could walk so nonchalantly onscreen. - she'd have to be suspended just to show up on it. Either way, it would be impossible to create a life size shadow as shown here without standing between Darius and the screen. (00:37:15)

Pilot (1) - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Max is holding Lydia over the balcony, one wide shot shows that Lydia is hanging at an angle because Max is only holding one leg, but every other shot shows that Lydia's hair and head point straight down. (00:39:20)

Normal: Well, well, well... so far, your moron colleagues have come up with the following excuses for why you're strolling in here at the crack of noon - you had a dental emergency, your aunt died... again, and my personal favorite from this idiot - you were detained by the sector police for practicing witchcraft. Now, would you care to further insult my intelligence?
Max Guevara: I overslept.
