Mr. Monk Takes Manhattan - S3-E1
Deliberate mistake: After Monk and Sharona speak to Gratnik in Dumbo, they take the subway back to Manhattan. While Monk is sobbing, in the first exterior shot the "A" train slows into the 42 St station in Manhattan; note the "A" at the left with the driver on the right, as well as the "42" station sign not reflected backwards, all revealing a flipped shot. Then it's the "C" train when it stops, with Monk and Sharona back in Brooklyn, even further now at the "Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street" platform (used for TV shows and films), in lower Downtown Brooklyn. (00:21:55)

Mr. Monk vs. the Cobra - S3-E11
Character mistake: Monk says that Croatia is a new country and didn't exist until 1992, but Croatia gained independence in 1991. However, Croatia still existed prior to that, it was just part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. So things could still be made in Croatia.
Mr. Monk and the Red Herring - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: In the pet store, the bird's cage has a plastic covering on the sides. But in various shots, either one or both coverings are missing.
Suggested correction: This is wrong, it was just the way the camera angle made the cage appear where I couldn't differentiate the space between the bars, so it looked like there must have been a covering.
Mr. Monk and the Game Show - S3-E8
Continuity mistake: The way Lizzy is holding the envelope changes in the different shots. Plus, the flap is down at first but then up later.

Continuity mistake: After Sharona's class, she's holding her book upside down when talking to the teacher (so the binding can be seen). In the next shot, the book is held right side up. Afterwards, when she's walking away, the book is upside down again.
Continuity mistake: When the commissioner is getting into the car, he opens the door pretty wide. In the next shot when his hat gets taken, he's seen opening the door again.

Continuity mistake: When Meredith's husband has his heart attack, his head falls into the soup bowl. However, in one shot the bowl (with his head in it) is tilted; after a cut, it is suddenly flat on the plate.
Mr. Monk and the Election - S3-E15
Character mistake: Captain Stottlemeyer uses gloves to pick up the letter found sticking out of the pipe. He doesn't actually put the glove on, but still uses it to avoid getting any of his prints, skin, etc on the paper. But then he uses his other, non-gloved hand to open up the note and hold it, and Monk also touches the letter. If he cared about not contaminating evidence by using the glove, he wouldn't touch it bare handed and if he didn't care about touching the note bare handed, then he wouldn't have used the gloves.
