I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Thodin's walker container is lowered down right into the center of the stage in stadium and is very visible with it's bright yellow color. But in some aerial shots like when the trainer is feeding the Cluster Lizards or the Holo Persecutor is listing out Thodin's crimes, it shows his walker as a much darker color and at the edge of the stage. (00:32:40)

Continuity mistake: After the Bug Bomb flies down a hallway, it cuts back to the stadium and a screen appears next to the Holo Prosecutor showing the guy feeding the Cluster Lizards a brain. It shows him lowering a skull and tossing a brain out of it to the lizards. It cuts to the lizards for half a second then back to the guy and suddenly he's holding the skull up in the air showing it off, only then lowering it and pulling the brain out to throw. (00:32:40)

Continuity mistake: In the stadium as the trainer is throwing a brain to the Cluster Lizards, it shows the backs of some of the audience who are standing up, with one person holding up a toy spear or something of some kind. Then when the trainer throws his arms up to get the crowd riled up, it cuts to a frontal view of these same people in the audience who are sitting, and then stand up to cheer, with the person holding the toy only then raising it up. (00:32:50)

Revealing mistake: Stanley stops next to a window and contemplates if he should turn himself in and face a forced organ donation of 3, or face termination. In the close up shots, the green screening was poorly done as he has a red outline around his face and head. (00:33:05)

Continuity mistake: When Stanley is running down the hall and he and the Bug Bomb accidentally cross paths, he swats it out of the air. It hits the ground damaged with one leg breaking off and it lying on its side. A minute later when it boots back up and starts to get up, it's in a different position, with its other legs up in the air now and the broken one changing. Also the design of its head seems to change. (00:33:25 - 00:34:35)

Visible crew/equipment: When Stanley is running down a hall to get back to the correctional facility to turn himself in, he encounters the Bug Bomb that came out of Thodin's nose. As he is swatting at the Bug Bomb, a prop pole in the top right corner of the screen as someone is holding it off camera moving the Bug Bomb around connected by string to this pole. (00:33:25)

Continuity mistake: As the Holo Prosecutor begins to read off Thodin's charges, she is facing towards the right of screen and holding the paper in her left hand. A moment later in a wide angle shot of the stadium, her image has been flipped with her now facing to the left with the paper in her right hand. (00:33:50)

Continuity mistake: When Thodin shouts to the crowds saying they are all slaves, the badge on his jacket is on the right side with the visible green screen on the right, with the badge being on the that same side later. This indicates that the previous time we see him in the same looking shot with the badge and visible green screen on the other side was a flipped shot. (00:33:55 - 00:37:25)

Revealing mistake: When Stanley doesn't make it back to the correctional facility in time and is locked out, it triggers his fugitive status for failing to turn himself in. Behind him and all through out the base, his image appears on screens along the walls like wanted posters. Only a little bit before as he is running down the hall trying to get back to the correctional facility in time, he passes by one of these screens and you can see this same image of him already on the screen but dim. Revealing that the production team already had the image set and ready to turn a back lighting on to reveal the image at the appropriate time. (00:34:00)

Audio problem: As Stanley is running towards the correction facility to not be late, there are several shots of the clock on the wall with the green bars ticking down. There is an audible tick every time a bar counts off. In one shot, we see it count down to having just 2 bars left, but it cuts back to Stanley running and we hear 3 clicks. When it cuts back to the clock there are still 2 bars left. Also in an earlier shot when the clock is off screen we hear more clicks than we see of bars having vanished when it cuts back to the clock. (00:34:00)

Continuity mistake: As Stanley is racing back to the correctional facility, it shows the clock counting down and reaching the last bar. Then the last green bar clearing with the face of the clock turning full yellow. It then cuts to a view of the guard at the corrections desk looking up at the clock, and suddenly it's back to one green bar and then turning yellow again. (00:34:05)

Continuity mistake: When the Bug Bomb flies through the conduit and finds the location of the cables it needs to destroy, it comes in and lands on a cable. In the shot of it landing, it is perpendicular to the cable, but it cuts to a close up and suddenly the Bug Bomb is instantly sitting along the cable parallel. This same mistake happens again when the Bug Bomb lands on the cable for the second time after it malfunctions. (00:35:05)

Continuity mistake: After the Bug Bomb lands on the cable the first time, it's sitting parallel to the cable as it folds its wings back. It cuts to a different view closer up and suddenly it's partly hanging off the side of the cable. Also the scanner it has instantly appears under its head between shots. (00:35:10)

Continuity mistake: In the establishing shot of the transport that carries the children whom are to be awarded Honors by His Shadow, it shows the doors on their transport with a bright red light of the control panel on the right side of the door. But in the close up after the door opens, the red light is on the left side of the door. (00:36:10)

Continuity mistake: At the awards ceremony, one little girl is given a medal and recognized for her devotion to His Shadow and their religion, the medal having a flashy red ribbon and held around her neck. A couple minutes later after Thodin's Bug Bomb causes damage to the hologram projectors, it cuts back to the ceremony again with a different kid being awarded. The same girl from before is standing behind them, and is missing their medal. She did not take it off, as only a couple of shots later as the Cluster Lizards are unleashed into the room with them, she turns to run and has the medal around her neck again. (00:36:50 - 00:38:45)

Continuity mistake: Just before the Cluster Lizards are opened into the award ceremony, the Cleric standing at the front with the box full of medals is seen. And despite several medals already being given out, it shows the box with most of them still in it. Yet moments later just before the Cleric closes the box in a close up as the Lizards enter, the box is empty. Yet in the next shot he drops it and it hits the floor spilling out a ton of medals. (00:38:55)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When the Cluster Lizards are mistakenly unleashed into the awards ceremony by the Bug Bomb, a Cleric runs into the room screaming which causes the Cleric holding the box of medals to close the box and take off running as well. In the next shot you can see him running across the room with the closed box, but then it cuts to a different angle and suddenly he's only just now closing the box again and starts to run. (00:39:00)

Revealing mistake: When the Cluster Lizards invade the awards ceremony, one of them grabs a boy and drags him across the floor for a moment before it cuts to the lizard slinging him around devouring him. In that shot, it is painfully obvious that the cluster lizard is slinging around a dummy, and the dummy doesn't even have a head. (00:39:25)

Audio problem: Right after the Cluster Lizard gets into where Xev is being held to change her body and mind and eats the 790 Unit, it cuts back to Stanley walking. Two larger robots come towards him and he swerves to avoid them, while you can hear their loud clunky footsteps. However the sounds of their steps do not match up with when they are stepping.

Show generally

Question: How in blazes do 790 and the other robot heads, when they are attached to cyborg bodies, eat, drink and breathe for their biological bodies? I never see anything like either a functional nose/air intake or functional jaw and mouth (for food intake, as opposed to speech) for these things. I never see any such bio-interface on the bottom of 790's head when he is held upside-down etc... Also, what is the power source for 790's kind's actual robot head, since we never see him plug into an outlet, fuel up etc.
