The Spy Who Met Himself - S3-E1

Other mistake: During the fight scene at the airport, Smart grabs a handful of soil from a nearby potted plant... Which has no plant in it and is just a random pot of soil in the middle of an airport.

The Spy Who Met Himself - S3-E1

Other mistake: Max cuts through bars to escape his prison cell, but when he cuts them, he does the top part of two of them, and then the bottom part of only the left one.

Viva Smart - S3-E2

Other mistake: The glass of lemonade that the room service drinks is poisoned. The room service says it's for the other room when Max tries to drink it, but if you look closely, Don Adams does drink a bit of the liquid, so he should have died.

Viva Smart - S3-E2

Other mistake: At the carnival scene, in one a close-up shots of Max and 99 performing, a female extra in one of the windows waves at the camera.

Suggested correction: Assuming the submitter meant Max (since there is no Ma character in this episode), the agents aren't firing at anything in the room other than the Cube of Safety, which isn't made of a spark-able material nor would it "explode".

Maxwell Smart, Private Eye - S3-E5

Other mistake: At the Alledon Arms shootout scene, an agent sneaks behind Max and Max shoots him dead, but at the angle that Max fired, the bullet would have hit the concrete, not the man.

Supersonic Boom - S3-E6

Other mistake: During the scene in the prison cell, the first shot has a hair sticking to the bottom right of the screen the entire time.

Supersonic Boom - S3-E6

Other mistake: In one of the car wash fight scenes, two men accidentally kill one another. According to the angle of one of the guns, you can kill someone without actually hitting them.

The Mysterious Dr. T - S3-E13

Other mistake: At the end, when Siegfried is about to shoot Max, if you look in the chambers of his gun, there's no bullets in there. So Siegfried is going to kill Max with a puff of air.

The Wax Max - S3-E20

Other mistake: When there's a close up of Max firing the rifle, the rides that appear in the next shot should have been visible right behind him.

Spy, Spy, Birdie - S3-E22

Other mistake: There are several shots of the carrier pigeon flying home from the group of agents, but in those shots it is not a pigeon. Pigeons do not have wings that big.

Spy, Spy, Birdie - S3-E22

Other mistake: Siegfried pulls out a pigeon and says that it is going to the Pentagon, but if you see his position compared to an earlier shot of the cages, he pulls out the one that is going to London.

Run, Robot, Run - S3-E23

Other mistake: The announcer says that the competitors have to run a mile in seven laps. When Hymie begins running, it is clear that the track is way too long for seven laps to qualify as a mile. Maybe it qualifies as 4 miles, perhaps.

Mr. Big - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Max is phoning the Chief to let him know the mission's been accomplished, he takes the oars out of the oarlocks before opening his shoephone. The oars change from being out of the oarlocks in the closeups to still being in the water in the long shots for the rest of the episode. (00:23:50 - 00:24:30)
