Guts - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Merle is handcuffed to a pipe and tries to seduce Andrea, saying they are going to die anyways. When she says, she'd rather die, his hands are apart closer to his sides, then when it cuts to a close up of him, suddenly he's got his hands together with one finger pointed at the other hand. (00:16:33)

Quantom X

Guts - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: We see Rick and Glenn out in the street when it starts raining. A few moments later, we see Rick driving the van away and the street is dry. (00:36:50)

Too Far Gone - S4-E8

Continuity mistake: When the Governor and his group show up and bomb one of the guard towers to get Rick and his group's attention, when Rick first runs outside the guard tower on the far left is on fire, but when Rick walks down to the fence to talk to the Governor the guard tower in front by the front gate is the one on fire. And it switches back and forth between the two. (00:16:05 - 00:19:15)

Now - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: In the scene in the garage near the beginning of the episode where the characters are gathering supplies, the sun is on them in one shot. In the reverse shot, they are dark and the sun is no longer shining into the garage. Then back to them, it is again.

Try - S5-E15

Continuity mistake: At the end of the previous episode, Daryl leaves on a motorbike with a car following. In this episode Daryl's still out but no bike - he's in a car. It's a continuous trip with the bike he built at the compound.

Inmates - S4-E10

Continuity mistake: When Glenn wakes up we see the door behind him is flush with the concrete, but when he goes inside you see stairs he had to descend to get to the door. There is also no scene in the entire prison episodes where an outer orange door is preceded by steps, they are all flush. Also If you look at the door behind him you see two folding chairs leaning up against the door. When he turns to open the door the chairs are gone.

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Shane finds Dale in the swamp trying to hide the guns, when he first sees Dale, Dale is holding a large spike to drive into the tree. In the next second they show Dale standing next to the tree with the spike already in it.

Clear - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: When Carl shoots the masked man who is found to be wearing body armor, Rick pulls up the armor to find the bruised ribs of a Caucasian male. When the assailant is unmasked however we see that the Caucasian male has magically transformed into an African American man. (00:11:20)

Internment - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: In the previous episode, Rick and Carol are shown hunting through houses for household drugs to fight the flu. They even make a mention that most of what they find expired a year ago, but to bring it back to Hershel anyway, and let him decide about it. But in this episode, Rick returns, talks to Hershel, and no mention is made about him bringing medicine. Considering how important it was to fight the flu with any means possible, Rick would not have let Carol drive off with the potentially life-saving drugs.

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Deleted footage/special release only: Carol confronts Daryl about the boy being held hostage inside the barn (following Sophia's death), reasoning with him about pretending not to care when he truly does. At one point he moves to her, almost in her face. However, the following shot shows only a close up of Carol, implying they are standing feet apart, which is not the case. (00:24:10)

Spend - S5-E14

Other mistake: Earlier in the season Father Gabriel Stokes burns his clerical collar, but in the end of this episode he is wearing it again. Especially doesn't make sense, because he said he gave up being a pastor.

Tell It to the Frogs - S1-E3

Question: Why does Lori tell Daryl that Rick will show him where his brother is but then 10 minutes later tried to talk Rick out of going?

Answer: No, she actually tries to talk Rick out of it, but he's already made up his mind, minutes later when Daryl asks him about the location of his brother Lori says "he'll show you."

Answer: It's not shown, but I think Lori is suffering from some sort of PTSD due to thinking her husband had died, having an affair with Shane and of course the zombie apocalypse as well! This isn't the only time she contradicts herself so it kinda backs this theory up.
