Show generally

Other mistake: The Air People were wiped out by the Fire Nation through Suzon's Comet enhancing them, we even have confirmation of this by the dishevelled exposed skeleton of a VIP of them (presumably any Air Nomad who escaped would have given Monk Giatsu honorable burial), but we never see scorch marks on the Air Nomad buildings or the aforementioned skeleton.

The Southern Air Temple - S1-E3

Other mistake: When the gang is in the Hall of Statues of Past Avatars, Katara points out the avatar cycle pattern of statues and Aang zeroes in on Roku's statue. The earthbender avatar statue next to Roku is of an unknown man with a sword, not Kiyoshi. (00:12:50 - 00:13:35)

The Tales of Ba Sing Se - S2-E15

Other mistake: The Tale of Aang: After Aang lets all the animals out of the zoo, he takes out his bison whistle and blows on it. As he does so, the way he holds his staff makes it so that it's going right through his head. (00:10:28)

Sokka's Master - S3-E4

Other mistake: When the group is first shown inside the store, Sokka starts running forward. Toph stands behind Sokka, but as Sokka is running away from them, she is layered over him. (00:04:43)

The Southern Raiders - S3-E16

Other mistake: When Azula attacks The Western Air Temple, there is a close up shot of her when she says that she is about to become an only child. Pay attention to the smoke coming from the airship behind her, especially above her head: it doesn't move. Even if this was remotely possible, it does move when the camera zooms out, making it a mistake nonetheless.

Suggested correction: She didn't see him (or technically, feel him), but she heard him. The actor playing her character throws the huge prop rock, and it hits the stage floor. Then, he flexes his muscles. Toph heard all this happening from her seat and then said, "I sound like a guy. A really buff guy."

Avatar Day - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When the village leader switches the wheel of punishment to Community Service, it is on the space next to Boiled in Oil. However, all of the other shots of the wheel have another section in between these two.

The Cave of Two Lovers - S2-E2

Iroh: Where are we going to go? We are enemies of the Earth Kingdom, and fugitives from the Fire Nation.
Zuko: If the Earth Kingdom discovers us, we'll be killed.
Iroh: But if the Fire Nation discovers us, we'll be turned over to Azula.
[Iroh and Zuko give each other a meaningful look.]
Zuko: Earth Kingdom it is.

Trivia: When Sokka gives Toph the piece of meteorite, she bends it into various shapes between her hands, the last of which resembles the Nickelodeon splat logo. (00:22:50)
