Continuity mistake: Halfway between the opening credits and first freeze frame, Gordon and Ms. Lily Fortune are seen entering the private train car in the dark of night, but the shot before their entrance is of the front of the private train car at twilight.

The Night of the Flying Pie Plate - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: When the townspeople spill out onto the town's streets after hearing the noise from the sky, the horses tied at the hitching posts never move nor flinch through the entire scene and are all in the same pose, indicating the horses are props and not real.

The Night of the Infernal Machine - S2-E14

Trivia: West collides with the cook and sends him sprawling face-down in a huge platter of gelatin. Before racing off again, West quips, "Sorry about that, chef!" This was a winking homage to the 60s spy comedy Get Smart and its bumbling hero Maxwell Smart's famous catch-phrase, "Sorry about that, Chief!" (00:47:30)
