The Newlywed Game - S3-E5

Visible crew/equipment: While Ralph is flying the "reconnaissance mission" and taking pictures for Powers, in some of his closeups the cushion under his abdomen is visible. Then when Ralph returns to the base he winds up on his knees, and the bulging outline of a mic transmitter is visible at Ralph's backside. (00:29:50)

Mean Streets (1973)

Continuity mistake: During two successive scenes, when Michael and Tony con the boys looking for fireworks and also when they're with Charlie at the movie theater, Tony has the taped bandage around his right pinky and hand. The problem is in the next scene at the pool hall Tony's hand is fine, and it's during the brawl in this pool hall that Tony injures his pinky, which requires it to be bandaged later on. (00:23:45)

It's All Downhill From Here - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: While Ralph is invisible in order to eavesdrop on Klein, when Klein makes a crack about Bill being little league, Ralph deliberately knocks the cup in Klein's hand so the coffee spills on his shirt, tie, vest, and jacket in the closeup, but in the next shot Klein is spotless. Additionally, Klein has a black pocket square and the cup he holds is white styrofoam, but in the closeup the pocket square is gone and he holds a white mug. (00:27:50)

Who's Woo in America - S2-E21

Continuity mistake: At the rec center, when Ralph enters the reserved racquetball court two men force him onto the floor for another polygraph. Ralph's wearing striped socks, blue shorts with white stripes, a blue half-shirt with red/white stripes that bares his midriff, but in the closeups as Ralph sits down and has the polygraph hooked up, all the stripes on his clothing have vanished and Ralph's abdomen suddenly has a significant amount of dark hair. (00:20:55)

It's All Downhill From Here - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: When the shooter is driving the snowplow and also later when Yuri defects, in some shots the driver's side lower window has "Squaw Valley" printed on it, but in other shots the window is clear. The shape of that lower window also changes. (00:12:00)

Mean Streets (1973)

Continuity mistake: At Joey's pool hall Jimmy is wearing a solid dark blue tie, and when they all return to Tony's bar after the brawl (still making "mook" comments) Jimmy's tie has a dark pattern, but when they all walk to the back room Jimmy's tie now has broad red stripes. (00:36:10)

Mean Streets (1973)

Continuity mistake: In the pool hall, after Johnny Boy's "skank" comment Joey changes his mind and announces that he won't pay, then Joey points at Jimmy with his raised left hand, but next shot it's Joey's right hand raised while calling Jimmy a mook. (00:30:55)

Mean Streets (1973)

Visible crew/equipment: After the scene at the church, when Charlie is in Tony's bar as he starts to dance towards the stage, a white T-mark is visible on the floor at the lower left side of the screen, right before Charlie passes the man who stops at that spot. (00:07:50)

Now You See It... - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When the top secret airplane causes the light aircraft's loss of control, in the long shots the aircraft's tail is red/blue, but in the closeups it's brown/gold and the style differs. Also note the name "Beechcraft" has duct tape covering part of the name. (00:29:15)

Train of Thought - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Ralph lifts Bill's car the first time, the blue license plate on the front bumper is gone, but when Ralph is amazed at the suit's power he lifts the car a second time, and the blue license plate is in its proper place on the bumper. (00:35:50)

Train of Thought - S2-E9

Revealing mistake: When Ralph stops the hijacked train before it reaches the city of Bakersfield, due to the close proximity of the camera it's too obvious that Ralph's footwear has been altered for the stunt, as he glides across the tracks. (00:44:30)

Train of Thought - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When the engineer shuts down the train he's wearing a long sleeve jacket, but in the closeup we see a bare arm wearing a watch. The terrorists remove that engineer and he's replaced with McGivers, another engineer wearing a jacket, and the same bare arm is in closeups. Then a third engineer on another train has the same arm in the closeup. (00:06:40)

The Lost Diablo - S2-E7

Visible crew/equipment: When Bill can't start the bus Ralph opens the hood and tells Bill the entire engine is gone, then as Ralph grumbles about what he'll tell the school board, the boom mic dips into view over Ralph, at the top of the screen. (00:33:50)
