Show generally

Continuity mistake: Episode 1-19, "Hot Dogs": in the scene where Mandy is reading "Judy Blume," she holds the book with her hands on both covers, but in the next shot, her right hand jumps to the bottom of the book's spine. (00:20:20)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In episode 1-12: "Clash of the Tritons," Veronica is in her car talking with Rick. You can tell there is no passenger seat (most likely to make room for the camera).

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In the last episode of Season 2, Veronica's mum puts three pancakes on her plate but when the camera turns back there's only one.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In episode 1-12: "Clash of the Tritons," in the scene where Veronica is in her trunk, as the camera angle is on the trunk of Veronica's car, the shot right before Wallace lets her out, you can see the reflection on the trunk of Percy Daggs, III. However, the next shot is of Wallace walking up to the car.

Show generally

Other mistake: When Veronica and Lilly find the camera in Echoll's guest house they show it on the ceiling fan pointing down on the bed. When they view the tapes of Aaron and Lilly in bed the camera view is coming from the cabinet and not from above them.

Show generally

Other mistake: Season 1, episode 19, Hot Dogs. After Veronica bugs the Spanish-speaking man who returned the dog in the park, a shot of her laptop is shown. It's the exact same shot as when Veronica was helping the valedictorian front-runner find out who was harassing her. There are books and even the girl she was helping in the shot, proving that the shot was not in Veronica's car, as seen in the very next subsequent shot.

Pilot - S1-E1

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Veronica knocks on the door of room 6, implying that it was empty. In the next shot, we see under the sign for The Camelot, it says "No Vacancies" meaning Lianne could possibly be there still.

Credit Where Credit's Due - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: During the diner scene with Keith, Veronica and Lamb, Lamb leaves and Veronica starts to go next. As Veronica starts to leave, still sitting in the booth, she puts on her hat (right after she says to Lamb "smell ya later"). The camera angle is on Keith, but you can barely see Veronica putting on her hat. In the next shot, the angle is on Veronica who is just packing up her books. She has no hat on, but then puts it on (again).

Like a Virgin - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When the video of Kimmy plays on the school announcements, and she talks about Duncan being hung up on Veronica, there is a cut to Duncan reacting with raised eyebrows in the foreground, while Veronica can be seen in the background with a passive expression. Then it cuts to a close-up of Veronica having a visible reaction with her whole face falling. But since Veronica and Duncan were reacting to the same thing, Veronica's reaction should have been visible in the first shot as well.

Drinking the Kool-Aid - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Veronica shows Keith the picture of Rain on the milk carton, she turns the carton around and tilts it backwards with her hand. In the next shot, her hand has disappeared and the carton is sitting flat on the table top. (00:33:25)

Silence of the Lamb - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: Deputy Leo is at the police station when a woman reports her daughter is missing, but moments later when Keith tracks Veronica to a storage/warehouse, Leo is playing with his band and doesn't seem to know what is going on and Keith has to tell him that a girl is kidnapped.

Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang - S2-E3

Other mistake: When Beaver takes the iPod/camera, the pictures are left on Veronica's laptop. This would only be possible if the pictures were copied onto the computer. It would have taken a considerable amount of time for all of the two thousand photos to be copied. There is the possibility that Beaver copied the three or so photos of Logan, but considering his anger, that's hardly something that he would take the time to do.

My Mother, the Fiend - S2-E9

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Logan and Weevil are fighting in the bathroom just a the principal breaks them up you can see the sound guy's elbow in the upper right hand corner of the screen. (00:28:15)

One Angry Veronica - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When the lady knitting is talking about why the motel manager took so long to look out the door, she isn't wearing her glasses. However when the shot changes to looking down the table at Veronica, you can see her glasses on her face on the left hand side.

Donut Run - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Lamb is first visited by the two FBI agents, he moves an item from the desk to a drawer. In the shot where the FBI agents sit down, the item is back on the desk.

Lamb: Hey, what do you say we do your Miranda Rights in harmony this time? I'll take lead. You take tenor?
Logan: Is it still called déjà vu when something happens more than twice, or is that something different? I'll have to look that up.

Not Pictured - S2-E22

Question: 1. At Neptune High graduation, the colors are green and gold. In season 1, wasn't there red involved with the cheerleader uniforms? 2. Why is Dick Casablancas watching the seniors graduate, and then in season 3, he has graduated and is off to Hearst College with the rest of the gang?

Answer: 1. No, the pep squad uniform was green and yellow. 2. He failed one of the classes, the one where they were trying to launch an egg from various heights without cracking the egg. He was pairing with Angie Dahl, who told the teacher that he didn't do anything in the project. The teacher then asked him to pick the project he worked on, and he couldn't do it because he didn't help. Then the teacher told him, "See you in summer school." He couldn't graduate with everyone else because he needed to attend summer school in order to pass that class and graduate. It's assumed that he did, in fact, attend summer school, despite all the mess that happened in the season 2 finale.
