Mr. Monk and the Leper - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: While Dr. Polanski talks to Monk and Natalie in his waiting room, he's gesturing with both hands held out in front of him. When the shot changes angles, he's abruptly standing with his hands clasped behind his back. Next cut, he's gesturing again. (00:05:00)

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: Monk kicks an oil drum across the floor toward Rawlins. In the master shot, it rolls half the distance and passes a black line on the concrete. The angle changes to a view from behind Monk and Natalie as the barrel keeps rolling and almost reaches Rawlins. But when the master shot returns, the barrel is again just passing the midway line on the floor. (00:25:00)

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: At the end, when Dale Biederbeck is screaming at Monk, Dale is sitting in his wheelchair with both his hands down in his lap. The shot cuts in the middle of his sentence, and suddenly he has one hand up on the cell bars. (00:40:30)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: Stottlemeyer enters Natalie's house and closes the door behind him. A few shots later, even though it hasn't been touched again, the door is standing wide open. (00:06:20)

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: In the motel room, the newspaper clippings and the scrapbook Monk has been working on change their arrangement on the table between shots as the owner's daughter and her dog are leaving. (00:10:30)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (1) - S6-E15

Plot hole: *Spoilers* Monk and Stottlemeyer cook up an ingenious plan to make Monk appear dead, but how the fugitive Monk acquires his regular clothes (in place of Mitch's uniform), the bullet-proof vest and the gun is not addressed. The police are watching Monk's apartment, Disher is watching Natalie and Julie, and Sheriff Rollins is watching Stottlemeyer, leaving us to wonder just how they managed all this right under their fellow cops' noses. (00:43:00)

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (1) - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: The needle Monk finds in the campers' sewing kit threads itself instantaneously between takes. He finds the spool of orange thread, and in the very next shot, tho there's absolutely no indication of any time passing, he's holding the already-threaded needle. (00:22:00)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (1) - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: Sheriff Rollins reports that his van had slowed for a yellow light when Monk escaped. But the van was driving down a forest road at the time. It was nowhere near any traffic lights. (00:24:10)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (1) - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: The items on the campsite table change positions radically just before Monk leaps up and knocks it over. Nothing is in the same place that it was just one shot previously. (00:22:30)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (1) - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: During Monk's fingerprinting session, the towelette packets on the counter change positions and quantity several times. (00:14:00)

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (1) - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: Natalie's "smoothie" is an extremely unappetizing pitcher full of dark brown glop. But when she pours it out into a glass, it has turned white. (00:33:00)

Jean G

Mr. Monk and the Three Julies - S6-E13

Factual error: Monk deflects the policeman's rifle shot and the bullet hits Stottlemeyer's car. But the gun fires just as Monk pushes it aside, and the car is behind them. There's nothing that could deflect the bullet back toward them, so at that angle, there's no way the shot could have struck the car. (00:35:50)

Jean G

Mr. Monk and the Three Julies - S6-E13

Visible crew/equipment: At the end, as Monk is summing up what happened, the shadow of the boom rigging intrudes into the shot on the right, against the backrest of the big green chair. (00:36:25)

Jean G

Mr. Monk and the Three Julies - S6-E13

Continuity mistake: In the police station, Julie's hair is neatly combed over her left shoulder. Then it's disarrayed and partially falling over her right shoulder, too. Then it's neat and only on the left side again. (00:27:45)

Jean G

Mr. Monk and the Three Julies - S6-E13

Visible crew/equipment: At the end, as George is arrested, equipment shadows can be seen moving across Disher's back. In the reverse angles, there's nothing behind him but the window, and nothing's moving in that. (00:38:00)

Jean G

Mr. Monk and the Three Julies - S6-E13

Continuity mistake: The broken side mirror that a distraught Stottlemeyer finds dangling from his damaged car wasn't there when Natalie pulled up to the first crime scene. And it disappears again when Natalie runs back to the car and races off to the second crime scene. (00:03:10 - 00:07:15)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Joins a Cult - S6-E11

Visible crew/equipment: When Monk first enters "Father's" cabin, the tip of the boom mike dips briefly into the shot at the top of the screen. (00:24:15)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Goes to the Bank - S6-E12

Continuity mistake: The living statue street performer holds a water bottle in his left hand while Randy questions him. When his alarm goes off and the shot cuts, the bottle jumps to his right hand. (00:08:15)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Meets the Playboy - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: Dexter places the sapphire necklace on Amber at a completely crooked angle. When the shot cuts, though, it has instantly straightened and centered itself.

Jean G

Mr. Monk Goes to the Bank - S6-E12

Continuity mistake: One of the large safety deposit box doors is standing wide open when Monk is curled up in the vault's corner. But when the camera angle changes, the door has closed itself. (00:30:45)
