Cold Vengeance - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Cyclops and Jean Grey enter Wolverine's room at the end of the previous episode and find it a mess and him gone, Cyclops is wearing brown pants, a yellow collared shirt and a charcoal tie, and Jean is wearing a pink dress. This episode picks up where that episode ended, and suddenly Cyclops is wearing blue jeans and a purple turtleneck, and Jean is wearing off-white pants and a turquoise blouse. (00:02:06)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Xavier is talking to Jean and Cyclops at the end, the three of them, along with Storm, are all to the left of the bed Gambit is lying on, with Storm being behind Xavier, over his right shoulder, and a piece of machinery behind her. When the shot changes, it is a closeup of Xavier, and neither Storm, nor the machinery are visible over Xavier's shoulder. When Jean and Cyclops leave the room, Xavier is now at the foot of Gambit's bed, several feet away from Storm. (00:20:08 - 00:20:32)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Storm and Callisto are about to engage in combat, they are using staves that look like lightsabers, with the hilts at the bottom. When they start striking at each other, both staves now resemble a double-edged lightsaber, with the hilt in the middle. (00:18:25)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Callisto's staff is roughly the same length as her body. When she is holding the staff to Cyclops' throat, only the bottom quarter of it is visible, when the rest that isn't obscured by their bodies should be visible and pointing outwards at her left. (00:18:06)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Storm is blasting down the door to the small room Jean is captive in, there is a small vent cover to the left of the door. When the shot changes, the vent cover disappears, and then reappears in the next shot. (00:12:33)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Other mistake: When Xavier is in the War Room with the rest of the team showing where the closest he could pinpoint Cyclops and Jean's location is, he is sitting in one of the chairs positioned around the table. Xavier is paraplegic and usually sits in his own hover chair. While there's no reason he couldn't be sitting in a regular chair, it would be very impractical for him to do so, especially if he's just instructing his team where they need to go. (00:11:07)

Captive Hearts - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Cyclops and Jean are approaching the newspaper kiosk, its opening is facing the sidewalk. When the shot changes to them walking past it, the opening has been replaced by a wall with newspaper clippings and a painting on it. Moments later, they are approaching the same kiosk, after he tells her that his mind is on nothing but her. (00:05:13)

Red Dawn - S2-E4

Question: Does anyone know what the Russian writing says on the wall behind Omega Red when he is standing at the podium and talking about the return of the Soviet Union? (00:15:08)

Phaneron

Chosen answer: It says MPO "First Exemplary Printing House" which is a real printing company in Russia founded by Ivan Dmitrievich Sytin in 1889. There seems to be something about "named after..." as well.
