The New Original Wonder Woman - S1-E1

Other mistake: Watch when Diana is looking at the newspaper. The headline reads "Steve Trevor Recovering Well, Now Able to Speak", but the story is something about a US Envoy and has nothing at all to do with Steve Trevor.

Wonder Woman Meets Baroness Von Gunther - S1-E2

Other mistake: When Wonder Woman is chasing the Baroness, she lassos her with her magical lasso. When she gets the lasso around the Baroness, Wonder Woman tugs on the lasso, but this pushes the Baroness in the exact opposite direction and into the swimming pool. Just before she falls in, you can even see the tension from the tug pulling her in the opposite direction, yet she falls in the opposite direction anyway as if she's been pushed, not pulled.

The Feminum Mystique: Part 2 - S1-E6

Other mistake: On Paradise Island, while the Nazis are distracted by the quarreling Amazons in the water, when Wonder Woman jumps and lands beside Queen Hippolyta her boots are flat, but the heels soon appear when she rushes off with the bracelets. This happens again later, when Wonder Woman chases after the XPJ-1 on the runway.

Super Grover

The Pluto File - S1-E8

Other mistake: This takes place in 1942, but modern 1970s era cars can be seen behind Wonder Woman and Steve when the attendants are loading Benson into the ambulance. Then again later, when The Falcon's partner creates a diversion and is being shot at by the guard.

Super Grover

Last of the $2 Bills - S1-E9

Other mistake: When the two dollar bill engraving plates are being stolen from the Bureau of Printing and Engraving (in reality it's called Bureau of Engraving and Printing), in the closeup of the plates we see the obverse and reverse sides do not look like the images on real two dollar bills of that era (perhaps this was deliberate, but still an error).

Super Grover

Last of the $2 Bills - S1-E9

Other mistake: After Wotan's arrival on the Virginia beach, there are two closeups of Wonder Woman leaping into the air and the "boots" she's wearing aren't actually boots, they are shoes with the high boot part layered over them, and when she's on the beach she's wearing the flat boots.

Super Grover

Last of the $2 Bills - S1-E9

Other mistake: In the two closeups of Steve's two dollar bill being held first by Steve and then by Diana, we can read "1963 A" and the name "Henry H. Fowler" Secretary of the Treasury during Lyndon Johnson's administration, as it appears under the red seal, even though this takes place in 1942.

Formula 407 - S1-E12

Other mistake: At the start, the episode's textbox reads, "Fort Frazier Ordnance Testing Facility" with correct spelling, but in the next shot the base's sign reads, "Fort Frazier Ordinance Testing Facility" when it should actually be "Ordnance."

Super Grover

The Feminum Mystique: Part 2 - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman is spinning the XPJ-1 around, she's seen approaching the jet with her hands empty and her lasso on her side where it usually is. As the scene progresses, her golden lasso magically appears in her right hand even though she never reached down to pick it up.

Trivia: Jeannie Epper, Lynda Carter's stunt double's son, was bullied in school by his peers who didn't believe his mother played Wonder Woman. Lynda Carter heard this and invited them to the set.

Answer: There is no logical reason. Any normal person would notice these type of absences. The show employs a "suspension of disbelief," which is a literary device where the movie audience or a book reader accepts that certain things are unreal for the sake of the story to be told. It is similar to no-one noticing that Clark Kent looks exactly like Superman because he wears glasses.
