Kolchak: The Night Stalker

The Werewolf - S1-E5

Factual error: The story is set during one of Chicago's worst winters, complete with snow and ice, but the footage of the 747 Carl Kolchak is flying on shows the plane taking off from an airfield without snow or ice to be seen.

The Werewolf - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When the 747 takes off from the airport, the livery (airline colours) of the plane changes three times before it lands, including stock footage of a Boeing 747 sporting Boeing logos and the model of the plane (747).

Chopper - S1-E15

Revealing mistake: The headless motorcycle rider's torso and arms are not in proportion to a real motorbike rider. The torso is obviously made larger to accommodate the stunt bike rider.

Bad Medicine - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: A female worker in the newsroom is seen behind Miss Emily as Emily speaks to Vincenzo and Kolchak, then walks away. In the closeup shot of Miss Emily, the worker is again behind Emily with no time for the worker to return.

Primal Scream - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Mr. Kitzmiller's secretary is about eye level with Kolchak when the camera shot is over Kolchak's left shoulder, but in the shots over the secretary's right shoulder she towers over him.
