Corrected entry: Eddie's ability to shape-shift is attributed to every muscle in his body being striated. While that's a reasonable explanation as to how he can change his face, it doesn't explain how he is able to change his hair. He has short hair and is balding, but when he mimics Mulder, he is able to match Mulder's longer and thicker full head of hair.

Corrected entry: Misty finds the cabin Jane was in open, however when Jane went to the toilet, she locked the cabin. Because of the bees Jane could not have unlocked the doors. (00:02:55)
Correction: In fact, Jane managed to open the cabin's door even though she was attacked by bees.

The X-Files (1993)
Corrected entry: When Mulder, Scully and the other police officers are digging Ray Soames's grave, one strap of the coffin breaks and the coffin falls and starts to roll. When it hits a tombstone and opens, you can see there's a normal size body in the coffin. When they look into the coffin, there's this small alien body. (00:13:35)
Correction: When the coffin opens, it is impossible to notice what sort of body is located in the coffin without using slow motion, which invalidates the mistake.

Corrected entry: Watch the odometer in Mulder's car. When we first get a shot of it the counter is at about 2092, the when he runs out of gas it is at 2043. (00:16:00 - 00:28:55)
Correction: The digit under the indicator is not 0 and the number is not 2043. It is probably 2, 7 or 9. It is especially clear when compared to the shape of other 0s on the odometer.

Corrected entry: In Antartica, the camera shows the snow cat. We can clearly see that there is no one driving it, but in the next shot, we see Mulder behind the wheel. (01:27:32)
Correction: Somebody's head is moving while the snowcat sways and there is indeed someone sitting behind the wheel. By the way, it would be quite difficult and completely useless to make this scene that way (i.e. hiding the driver) or remake the snowcat into a remotely controlled version only for this purpose.

Anasazi (1) - S2-E25
Corrected entry: After Mulder has his tantrum and goes to see Skinner, he does not have or reach for his suit coat, but when he walks up to Skinner, he has it on. (00:11:20)
Correction: Not necessarily. When leaving his office, Mulder is not heading directly toward the doors. It seems as firstly he goes up to the hanger to take a suit coat, and only then he leaves. He probably grabs his coat and carries it with his right hand, which is not presented in this shot.

Correction: When "Mulder" Eddie drops by to Scully's apartment, she says, "We discovered an additional anomaly relating to the hair follicles in his scalp." That would account for the change in hairstyle.
