Show generally

Other mistake: Kenneth Cope had to wear a toupee for his part. He did so, only it was initially on the wrong way, though no one pointed it out or noticed. If it ain't broke...

Jackie Chan Adventures picture

Origami - S2-E14

Other mistake: When Viper slides the swords to Jackie and they come to a rest next to him, there is a small paper spider right beside Jackie. The only paper spider in the room, however, is Origami himself, and he is actually too far away at that moment and too big to fit the bill. Guess some of the animators got their depth perception messed up.

Twin Peaks picture

Episode Eight (2) - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Cooper is on the floor after being shot, as he's signing the check, he is doing so with the pen closed, and proceeds to click it open as he hands it back to the room service.

Ghosts (US) picture

Farnsby & B - S1-E18

Other mistake: The ghost in the Farnsby's house knew Ronald Reagan as an actor but in 70 years she didn't know he was elected President even though she would have heard about it from people who lived in the house during his terms.

Haven picture

Stay - S3-E2

Other mistake: Duke is checking old copies of the Haven Herald around the time of Lucy (27 years ago). A headline on the one he's reading is about Lucy's disappearance. A moment later, he's reading a story about a meteor shower that occurs every 27 years; but the text we can see states that it just happened, and refers to dates in 2010 (having just happened, not '27 years from now'). This paper is supposed to be a 1983 edition. Also there is fake Latin 'filler text' printed in some columns.

Suggested correction: Lucy's disappearance is at the top of the newspaper and the hunter storm is at the bottom of the same page. Also, the paper predicts the next storm to occur. Just like how we know when to expect the next lunar eclipse or the next meteor shower, so I don't see how this is a mistake.

It's not a prediction of events to come, it's an article telling about the recent event, which states it was seen on the morning of the October 21, 2010. It even compares the 2010 shower to a previous shower that occurred in 2009. The mistake is valid.

All of Us Are Dead picture

Season 1 generally

Other mistake: Throughout season 1: The emergency workers are sometimes seen wearing a black jacket with an English spelling mistake on it. It reads "FIRE EMS RESOUE." Obviously the last word should be "RESCUE."

Merlin picture

Excalibur - S1-E9

Other mistake: When Uther takes Excaliber from Merlin while preparing for his duel with the black knight, we see that Uther is left handed. And he is left handed while writing. He tests the balance of the sword with his left hand, and in fact wears his sword on his right hip in all other episodes. Once he puts his helmet on and begins his duel with the black knight he suddenly becomes right handed.

Primeval picture

Season 3 generally

Other mistake: In the last episode of season 3, Helen Cutter goes to site 333 to kill off the first hominids. Connor mentions that that's the site where thirteen members of a hominid family all died at once, and no one could ever figure out why. The implication is that it was Helen's actions that killed them off, and we see her doing it. Right after killing them, Helen herself is killed by a velociraptor, which also dies. Danny Quinn leaves their bodies there and walks away. Doesn't that mean that, when site 333 is discovered in the future, they would also find Helen's bones and those of the raptor? I imagine it would cause some confusion if the bones of a modern human and a velociraptor were found in the same strata and the same age as the earliest proto humans.

Other mistake: The gas chamber is destroyed when the dogs pull a chain that's attached to its front support but it somehow collapses from behind. (00:19:07)
