Over - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: Skyler grabs some fruit on her fork at the end of the episode and then swaps hands so the fruit bowl is in her left hand. The shot changes and now it's back in her right hand. (00:37:40)

Audio problem: The message from Walt that Skyler listens to at the office is different from the audio earlier in the episode. Walt says "no" when we see him, but on the recording he doesn't say it.

Over - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: In her office, Skyler brings up to her boss, Ted, an issue with a "Keller Account" and puts one hand up to her mouth. In this shot her other arm is crossed over with her other hand resting on the one arm held up. When the angle changes suddenly her arm is outstretched more in front of her with her hand on her papers.

Continuity mistake: When Skyler is asked the due date by the surgeon, as the camera changes angle, so does her arms on her belly. Her right arm is is higher than, then lower than, the left arm. (00:05:50)

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene at the very end, Walter breaks into Jesse's house to take all of their product. As he leaves the kitchen, just as he passes the fridge, Jesse (passed out in this scene) or a crew member can be seen peeking around a doorframe. (00:46:25)

Mandala - S2-E11

Visible crew/equipment: When Combo is watching a black car parked in front of him while he was dealing as the episode started (a few moments before he's killed), a stage light can be seen reflected in his sunglasses.

Mandala - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: After Combo is killed and Skinny leaves the operation, Jesse and Walt are in Saul's office, explain what happened, and they start bickering. From a side angle you see Saul lean forward in his chair as he yells "Guys guys!" to try and stop them. It then cuts to an angle showing Saul from the front and he's suddenly leaning back in his chair, not forward.

Phoenix - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When Hank arrives with takeout food from Los Pollos Hermanos, Walt picks up a container, but in the next shot he isn't holding it. Also when Walt places a chicken breast on Skyler's plate, it disappears in the next shot, but re-appears in the shot after that. There is a lot of back and forth with the food in this scene. (00:11:45)

Phoenix - S2-E12

Other mistake: Walt takes new-born Holly into the garage to show her the money hidden behind wall insulation. He enters through a door that doesn't exist in the interior of the house. (00:15:00)

Phoenix - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: Walt's grip on the needle changes position at the end. In one shot he is holding it very close to the needle end, in the next he is holding it by the plunger end. (00:43:20)

Cornered - S4-E6

Walter White: Who are you talking to right now? Who is it you think you see? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn't believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work? A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up. Disappears. It ceases to exist, without me. No, you don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I AM the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the one who knocks!

Caballo sin Nombre - S3-E2

Trivia: There is a scene in this episode where Walter angrily tosses a box of pizza in the air in such a way that the pizza exits the box and lands on his roof. Before filming this scene, the crew had wondered how many takes would be required to achieve the desired result. Bryan Cranston nailed it on the first try.
