Monk (2002)

Mr. Monk Takes Manhattan - S3-E1

Deliberate mistake: After Monk and Sharona speak to Gratnik in Dumbo, they take the subway back to Manhattan. While Monk is sobbing, in the first exterior shot the "A" train slows into the 42 St station in Manhattan; note the "A" at the left with the driver on the right, as well as the "42" station sign not reflected backwards, all revealing a flipped shot. Then it's the "C" train when it stops, with Monk and Sharona back in Brooklyn, even further now at the "Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street" platform (used for TV shows and films), in lower Downtown Brooklyn.

Visible crew/equipment: When Julius enters the supermarket parking lot, in the long shot we can see the stunt ramp used to lift the driver's side of the car, to go into ski mode. In this and following long shots of the stunt, we can also see the window roll cage bar directly behind the front windshield (the obvious stunt driver grips the roll bar with his left hand and steers with his right hand), as well as the top of the seat supports behind the front headrests.

The camera and its operator are casting a shadow on Zeb as well. (00:18:25)

Continuity mistake: Level 12 "Grand Theft Scratchy" cutscene: When Marge tells Poochie that even he isn't "extreme enough to resist the power of a stay-at-home mom, with too much time on her hands," Poochie is wearing two bracelets, but next shot both bracelets have vanished, then continues to reappear (even within the same shot) and disappear again.
