Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: During Magnum's first team practice, light conditions change from cut to cut - for instance when the chubby kid in green says "Tell him we're not playing football", and pronounced shadows appear all of a sudden. (00:05:30)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: After scoring between Magnum's legs, the kid walks away. Magnum calls her back, and they have a brief exchange. She keeps her ball against her side with her hand when viewed from behind, with her arm in the frontal. (00:07:00)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: When Magnum and Wally talk about where's from and she namedrops Bill Walton, he has his hands on his hips or in front of his crotch depending on the two main angles. (00:07:30)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Visible crew/equipment: After Magnum annoys Higgins with the bouncing basketball he asks if the uniforms have arrived, and as Higgins starts walking the white T-mark is visible on the floor in front of the chalkboard. (00:08:55)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum and Higgins are bickering over the choice of colour in the jerseys. In the first shot, the jersey is partially over the side of the box and Magnum's basketball is on the table. Second one, and the shirt is fully inside the box and Magnum holds the ball. Back to the first angle, and the previous status quo, next change and the shirt is back neatly folded in, etc. (00:09:10)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum replies peeved to Higgins "I'm the coach, remember?", hand to his chest in close-up. Medium shot and he is pulling back from the chest his right hand, but in close-up it was his left hand. (00:09:35)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Higgins finishes chalking the tactic drawing of the "floating defence" adding the missing arrow in close-up. However, the other arrows also changed, being different in size. (00:10:30)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum just unleashed the kids on Mr. Masters' tennis court repurposed for shooting hoops. After briefly explaining to Higgins the concept of something called 'kids', he blows his whistle. Sun on his chest in close-up, shadow in the wider angle. (00:13:35)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: When Magnum on the way back from Robin's nest asks Theresa/Willie "the truth", she has her arms crossed in opposite ways (the right arm being on top first, the left arm in the reverse). (00:19:40)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Rick pulls Magnum and TC apart before they (maybe) come to blows. He has both hands pressed against TC's chest, but with a notebook in his left in the first shot, in the right hand in the next. (00:26:20)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Willie is in the car with her creepy stepfather; Dana Hill has her arm on the car window when the camera is from the driver side, and not when it's out of the passenger window. (00:28:00)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum is frustrated because Willie is late and he knows he's been lying to him. Higgins tries to calm him down; while they are talking, the string of Magnum's whistle runs on the inside or the outside of the left collar of his polo. (00:29:00)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum is confronting Willie after she arrives over one hour late; during the scene, Tom Selleck' is with his hands on his hips, or with his arms relaxed down the sides, no continuity between shots, even pointing at her when he did not move his arm before. (00:30:40)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: When Willie shouts at Magnum to try and win the game by himself, one of the kids behind her has his arms crossed, which instantly uncross at the cut. (00:32:15)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum chases Willie down the road where she was trying to hitch a ride. When the talk, continuity issues arise aplenty, mostly with Magnum's hands being either on his hips or or not, but also with his whistle being caught in the collar of the polo at times. (00:34:00)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: Magnum protests that he's an adult, and so Higgins pours him a full glass of wine instead of just half. Magnum before the cut brings his left hand to the glass, but it's gone in the new shot. (00:38:45)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: When Vera, the Foster Mother is surprised by the lights being switched on, she turns around a full 180°. She is only partially turned in the next shot. (00:40:45)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Other mistake: During the game, Willie scores the 38-34 point according to the close-up of the electronic board, but in the wide angle when she actually shoots it, the score appears to be 30-31...from 30-30, which is odd, since it was a 2-point shot. (00:43:00)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Continuity mistake: The reaction shot showing Willie as her teammate botches the fateful 2 points shows in the background TC and the supporters of the other team already celebrating when the ball has not gone out yet. (00:45:05)
Basket Case - S3-E14
Revealing mistake: Magnum's team loses by some extraordinarily bad luck, since the whole laws of physics conspire against him; the ball hits the hoop following a counterclockwise motion without going in, but in the last shot, when it flies away, it is spinning clockwise. (00:45:10)
