Revealing mistake: During the crash through the fence, the front of the Ferrari has a mockup in the front; the left direction indicator falls off outright, but it is just broken when TC and the new two passengers take off. (00:04:40)
Squeeze Play - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: In the finale, Magnum is playing a solitaire. On the desk, the card on top row is an ace, then there are from right to left a 6 of hearts, a Jack of hearts, two spaces with cards face down, and a 5. When the village idiot makes Magnum turn the queen, he does it picking it between an 8 of hearts and a Jack of clubs that were not there before. (00:45:30)
Squeeze Play - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: During Magnum's final run to win the game, the person with the ball changes; it's either a white guy in the vicinity of second base, or a black outfielder by the fence. (00:43:40)
Squeeze Play - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: At the 9th inning, Rick pitches and manages to get a triple play. The last shot before we see the scoreboard though is of Rick walking back to the bench, with his catcher mask, which was the role he played earlier. (00:38:25)
Continuity mistake: During the surf ski race, Magnum is wearing sunglasses or not, and his paddle goes from white blades to red blades, back and forth several times. (00:42:15)
Continuity mistake: Magnum asks Higgins "In the meantime, you're just gonna sit there sipping brandy, being terribly British?" Higgins answers "Yes!", cut to Magnum, hands crossed, then cut to Higgins finishing his glass, and then, all of a sudden and with the clock ticking all the way through in continuity, Magnum too is sitting there with a glass of brandy in hand. (00:31:35)
Continuity mistake: When Magnum says "Ah forget it" while TC and Rick are toweling him, there's a racer behind them who hops all happy. Next shot and she's waving the towel she had around her neck. (00:43:40)
Continuity mistake: Magnum during the surf ski race wears two different hats; first we see his Tigers hat (white logo), but then he has the yellow logo Da Nang hat - which he lost in the ocean during the season opener when the two "turkeys" capsized his craft. (00:42:00)
Audio problem: When some black dude randomly does a kamikaze wrestling splash from the upper deck of the boat, his "Raaaawwrr!" warcry is dubbed in. (00:41:05)
Revealing mistake: When Higgins KOs the main villain, two mistakes happen; first of all, the one already down for the count is buried in drums in a different way than shown before, and second and funnier, the stuntman who takes the fall from the pier is either wearing a wig or has a natural poofy head of hair - in either case, it's dry hair and not the wet thinning hair of Terence Knapp crawling out of the ocean. (00:40:55)
Visible crew/equipment: One of the barrels involved in the stunt that flattens one of the bad guys rolls towards the camera and hits it rattling it. (00:40:55)
Revealing mistake: Higgins disposes of one of the evil dock workers by letting loose a lot of barrels, but it's very visible that the man falls on his own in the way of the barrels for that stratagem to work. (00:40:50)
Revealing mistake: A younger and more athletic stunt double for Higgins is visible in several shots of the climactic fight scene at the end of the episode; when he dodges the first punch after tossing the jewel appraiser in the water, when he gets slammed back-first against the crate, when he pulls the rope and so on. (00:40:15)
Factual error: The location designed for the drop is the crossing between Hotel Street and Liliha Street...which do not intersect, there's King Street in between the two, at most.
Revealing mistake: When the kidnappers drive-by ending up hitting with the car door, John Hillerman is replaced by a stunt double with hilariously fake moustaches, and Magnum is not Tom Selleck. (00:29:00)
Continuity mistake: Magnum speaks to Higgins in the study after the romantic dinner mix-up. The collar of his jacket is straight all the way up in wide shots, and loose in Tom Selleck's close-ups. (00:27:40)
Revealing mistake: Higgins puts on the table the newspaper clipping with the picture of Lady Wilkerson. The text underneath it speaks of a generic conference, and it's simple filler text he had no reason to keep. (00:15:45)
Continuity mistake: Magnum approaches Vivian and Higgins' table carrying an oar; during this wide shot the table has direct sunlight all over, but in other camera angles they are in the shade. (00:10:55)
Audio problem: The woman Higgins seems to have developed an insta-crush on is dragged by two guys in an alley. She is protesting with rather high-pitched shouts but her lips do not move. (00:07:50)
Continuity mistake: Higgins outside the British shop is stammering. He says "But I..." and a blonde with sunglasses and a hair clip quickly walks behind him - nobody was walking towards them from that direction in the establishing shot. When a wider angle is again presented, there she is; that woman is approaching from that same direction. (00:07:15)
