The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: Higgins stops Magnum's work telling him that the very special lawn of the estate can't be just mowed. Magnum leans against the mower, held it straight by the left bar, and goes "Gee, Higgins..." In the next shot he is still holding by the left bar, but sideways. (00:04:10)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: Magnum follows Higgins carrying a wheelbarrow with 3 tool handles sticking out in the front from the sacks. At least at the beginning, because when they emerge from the passageway it's suddenly 4 handles. (00:04:15)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: When Magnum shows the week-old fortune cookie to a disgusted Higgins, the cookie changes position in his palm in John Hillerman's close-up and when he grabs it - prying the fortune slip from the right side instead of the left where it was in the previous shot. (00:05:25)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: Magnum is struggling to load the big heavy crate in the van, or make it budge at all. Over half of the crate is in the shadow of the building, but in the rest of the scene when Magnum has to fight the two muscleheads off, it's suddenly fully in the sun. (00:09:30)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: When the girls come out of the crate, the lid of the crate rests on top of it, sticking out by quite a bit, and parallel. During the fight, when Selleck is replaced by a stunt double, the lid sticks out by a small corner. Earlier when he was trying to talk his way out of it and let the girl go, the shadow of the lid also varied in size depending on the camera angle. (00:10:20)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: At Rick's place, Magnum reminds him about searching for the yo-yos that hit him at the dock. Meanwhile, he is holding the bar bills in a different way between shots (vertical first, horizontal next). (00:17:55)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: Magnum and his buddies have gotten all the information they needed from Jansen and Harms, and he begins to fast-talk his way out of the reinforcements. He points a stick at one of them, using his left hand, saying "You owe me 30 bucks." In a cut, the stick switches to the right hand. (00:33:10)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: Shooting at the two snipers from the helicopter, Magnum hits one, then in a shot with camera inside the cockpit he asks "Closer TC, closer." In that shot, both the villains are still standing. (00:43:40)
The Eighth Part of the Village - S3-E3
Continuity mistake: In the final climax, Higgins says "Don't" to Sano, pointing a gun. Kim Miyori's head is turned differently (very noticeably) in the different shots. (00:44:10)
