Mr. Monk Goes to Jail - S2-E16
Continuity mistake: When Monk and Sharona talk to Sylvia in the prison library the second time, the books on her desk change in various shots. At first, you see 3 piles of books, all with blue books on top. In the next shot the blue book closest to her is gone. In the next shot, she's straightening a red book next to her, but it goes back to being crooked.
Mr. Monk and the Very, Very Old Man - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When the Captain is eating his sandwich while talking to Monk, the position of the sandwich and amount eaten keeps changing. He'll have it in his hand, but in the next shot it's on the plate. And you see him take a 2nd bite, but later only 1 bite has been taken.
Mr. Monk Gets Married - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: In the room with the memoirs, Monk turns around and reaches towards a few slightly misaligned books to take one and read it. In the closeup, it's a neatly stacked shelf.
Mr. Monk and the Missing Granny - S2-E13
Continuity mistake: Monk identifies the kidnappers' house by the pizza box outside by the bin. In the wide shot it's upside down on its corner, with "zza" just visible behind a black bag. In the closeup it's turned around, so we can see more letters, and it's moved.
Mr. Monk and the Paperboy - S2-E10
Continuity mistake: Stottlemeyer says "does that make any sense to you?" as Monk is straightening the pots on the mantelpiece - all the lid handles are horizontal. The camera cuts away for a second, cuts back, and the lid on the far right has suddenly rotated 90°, whereupon Monk straightens it to be horizontal like the others.
Mr. Monk Gets Married - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: In Dalton's antique store, in the close of the forged map, the "sold" tag is covering part of the state names (mainly the West in West Virginia) and part of the picture. In the wide shot, the tag is now in the corner and not covering anything.
Mr. Monk Goes Back to School - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Mr Monk completes his name on the chalk board at the beginning of class, but when class is dismissed the 'k' in Monk is incomplete.
Suggested correction: After he wrote his name, he says "what's up with that k?" and erases it. He started to re-write the k when he got hit by the eraser, leaving it unfinished.
Mr. Monk and the Three Pies - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When Van Rankin shoots his wife, the black gym bag, which has been slung over his shoulder since he entered the kitchen, disappears between shots. (00:31:05)
