Batman: The Animated Series

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Poison Ivy is introduced in her trademark green costume, she's bare legged. Yet a few shots later, she's suddenly wearing green tights. While she's offscreen for a brief period, there's not enough time between the shots for her to have put them on.

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: Harvey Dent is brought inside the hospital on the stretcher fully dressed in his business suit. Which is pristine clean, despite the face he just facemoussed and got chocolate splatters all over himself. (00:08:40)

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: Harvey gulps down the whole glass of water, but when Bruce tries to revive him after the chocolate mousse incident both glasses of water on the table are still full. (00:07:50)

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: A newspaper clipping shows Bruce and Harvey shaking hands in front of a sign. The sign in the photo is different from the sign they were actually standing in front of. It says simply "Future site of Gotham Penitentiary" instead of "of the new Gotham Penitentiary." (00:02:10)

Sammo

Two-Face (1) - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: The pothole with the mud that Rupert Thorne's henchman kicks at Harvey Dent appears from nowhere. When the henchman is shown kicking the mud, the pothole is located between the police officer behind the henchman's right shoulder and Harvey's assistant Carlos on the henchman's left. However, in the previous shot, the ground shown between the police officer and Carlos contains no pothole. (00:04:35)

Trivia: The series was animated on darker (typically black) paper as opposed to standard white paper. This helped aid in the show's aesthetic, and also helped save time when animating nighttime sequences, since they wouldn't have to paint the entire background black.
