Love Boat Angels (2) - S4-E2

Continuity mistake: Kelly marks an X on a map with a lipstick tube: watching the movements of her hands, it appears the X is rather small. However, the close shot of the map reveals a rather big X. In addition, on the map there are two purses, one hair brush, one lipstick tube and a pencil; their position on the map changes during shots. (00:31:10)

Fallen Angel - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: Jill's hairstyle changes too frequently during the episode: sometimes her hair is curly, sometimes straight, sometimes there's lots of movement in her hair. Jill often displays a completely different hairstyle in scenes which are separated by no less than one hour.

One of Our Angels is Missing - S4-E16

Continuity mistake: Kris is in Arizona. However her car (Cobra II) is parked in front of the office. It is shown four times during the episode.

If Kris is not in LA, who is driving her car?

Catch a Fallen Angel - S4-E17

Continuity mistake: Tiffany and Kelly have a car accident (orange Pinto).

Circus of Terror - S2-E7

Plot hole: After Sabrina and Tarloff have finished their rehearsal, Kris is able to pick the real sword with no hesitation. There are still six swords left in the basket (one is real, five are fake). They all look the same, so how could Kris know the exact position of the real one? (00:43:30)

Trivia: The original actor who had been cast as Charlie had a drinking problem, and couldn't deliver his lines properly. John Forsythe got called up by creator Aaron Spelling after midnight on a Friday night and was asked to record lines ASAP because the show had to be aired Monday night. He headed straight down to the studio at 20th Century Fox, still in his slippers and pyjamas, recorded the lines and went straight back to bed.
