Criminal Minds

The Caller - S9-E10

Continuity mistake: At the beginning, a St Louis couple has reported their son missing. At the FBI briefing, the agents are told that the boy's mother tucked him in at 10:00pm. A few minutes later, we hear the radio call over footage of police at the home, and the dispatcher says "Last seen at 2100." That's 9:00pm, not 10:00pm. (00:03:00 - 00:05:00)

Route 66 - S9-E5

Continuity mistake: In the video of the Chicago robbery they enter the building at 08:27 according to the timecode displayed, but they exit at 15:32. Seven hours is a very long robbery.

Demons - S9-E24

Continuity mistake: While Reid's asleep in the hospital bed, Garcia places four Doctor Who figurines (one Dalek we don't see her place) on the overbed table - two Daleks, Matt Smith's Doctor, and David Tennant's Doctor. In the first shot Garcia's holding Smith's Doctor in her right hand and Tennant's Doctor in her left hand, but in the next shot those two figurines have switched hands.

Super Grover

The Inspiration - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: The unidentified subject is cutting a piece of flesh with a fork and a knife. The first shot shows him holding the fork with his left hand. His elbow is up, index finger straight, resting on the back near the head of the fork, the other four fingers wrapped around the handle. Next shot shows him elbow down, holding the fork with all his fingers wrapped around the handle.

Route 66 - S9-E5

Continuity mistake: When the thief tries to steal the truck and the owner is beating him up, the passenger window behind the driver breaks. When his daughter later gets into the truck, very briefly the window is not broken. Then the next shot shows her in the truck, the window is broken again.

What Happens at Home... - S6-E10

Character mistake: After the murder that takes place while the team is at the church meeting, they gather together to talk about narrowing down the suspect list to the people who didn't show up to the meeting. Spencer shows up with a stack of papers and says 18 suspects didn't show up. We then see his actor break character and almost laughs when he looks over at Ashley, whose actress too almost breaks character from laughing.
