Brotherly Love - S4-E15

Continuity mistake: When Hector, Caleb, and Michael walk to the back of Caleb's house looking for the GTO, they discover it behind the greenhouse. Caleb tells Hector he'd never steal from him. Hector gets in Caleb's face and says, "You mean, you never will." Here, Caleb is shown from the front. When Hector says "again," Caleb is shown from behind, and he has sweat running down his cheek. When Caleb is shown from the front again, Hector says, "Take him inside," and there's no sweat on his face. (00:35:40)

Brotherly Love - S4-E15

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, before the SUV rolls, it is a new Escalade. However, during and after the roll, it changes to a first generation Escalade.

Dead or Alive - S4-E16

Continuity mistake: When Michael has his gun on the dirty cops head, the gun is resting on his forehead and Michaels hand is on his throat. In the next shot the gun is right between the cops eyes, and his hand is on his chest. This keeps going back and forth a few times.

Last Stand - S4-E18

Revealing mistake: After Michael blows up his car, the bad guys' car hits it and pretty clear jolts to a near-stop. In the reverse angle it suddenly smashes over the top of the burning vehicle at great speed. Not to mention that without a ramp there's no way it could have jumped the wreck anyway.

Damned If You Do - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: Xavier's henchmen show up at Oswald's associate's house with 2 Escalade SUVs. Then, one more Escalade, same year as the 2 others, shows up behind the house. As soon as Michael says "We've got another one coming up. Third," the next shot of the Escalade shows a much older model.

Scorched Earth - S6-E1

Revealing mistake: Near the end when everyone is trying to escape the building before the explosion, the team escapes but Sam is missing. Michael calls out for Sam until he is shouting. A view of the building shows a stack of something with a horizontal gap in the middle. Sam's arm and blue shirt can be seen in the gap while Bruce Campbell waits for his cue to come out with the hostage.

Daniel Christner

Desperate Times - S6-E10

Continuity mistake: Michael attempts to have a conversation with his mother Maddie while she is folding clothes. She picks up a blue Hawaiian shirt and begins to fold it. The angle switches for a moment to Michael and then immediately back to Maddie, only now she is folding a white shirt. The blue shirt is already folded on the table and is seen under another shirt. (00:11:00 - 00:11:30)

Trivia: At the beginning of every show you'll see an on-screen credit for Consulting Producer Michael Wilson. Not only is this the name upon which the name Michael Westen was based, this person is a real former spy that was burned and helps keep the information and stories in the show accurate.

Season 7 generally

Question: How do Jesse and Sam intend to continue as P.Is, when their faces were broadcast over the state news? Undercover/stealth work is torpedoed by that.
