It Takes a Thief (1968)

It Takes One to Know One - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: While he hangs from the ceiling over the jewels, Al's trapeze is spinning slowly. But when the shot cuts to a close-up, you can tell from the stationary background that the trapeze is now perfectly still. In the next full shot, though, it's spinning again. (00:39:00)

Fortune City - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: Mona draws a heart in the dust on the bar and writes "Al + Mona" inside it. When we see a close-up it, however, the L is suddenly much larger than before, and the name "Mona" is written in smaller letters. (00:04:00)

The Scorpio Drop - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: Angela's limo picks up Mundy and drives down a tree-lined country road. But in the very next shot, the view out the back window is of a busy city street with nary a tree in sight. (00:13:00)

Flowers From Alexander - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Sykes is drinking a beer when Nicholas knocks on the door, and he leaves the beer can on the balcony railing when he crosses to let Nicholas in. When they both walk out onto the balcony a moment later, the beer can has disappeared. (00:43:05)

The Family - S2-E23

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, Mundy is tapping into a line by climbing a phone pole. He's starting back down when the shot cuts to a wider angle - at which point he's back at the top and starts down the pole all over again. (00:00:55)

Catspaw - S2-E18

Continuity mistake: Mundy shoots a palace guard with a tranquilizer dart, and the man falls unconscious on the stairs. When his fellow guards find him moments later, the unconscious man has somehow moved off the stairs and is now lying in the corridor. (00:39:15)

To Catch a Roaring Lion - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: The professor translates the two Chinese symbols from Mundy's brass rubbing. Then he's shown a Chinese business card, and states that the 12 symbols on the card say the same thing. But not one of the symbols on the card matches the first two from the paper. (00:24:25)

A Sour Note - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: During his scuffle with Gino, Mundy's hair is messed up, then neatly combs itself, then is messy again, and so on several times between takes. (00:45:45)
