Star Trek (1966)

Spock's Brain - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Kirk and his landing party beam down to the planet there are six shots of Morg, who have their right arms covered in fur in all those flipped shots, but when Morg attack the landing party it's their left arms covered in fur. Presumably, the first six shots were flipped for direction continuity. (00:13:15)

Continuity mistake: When Mom gives Molly the donation box she writes "Sunnyside" on only one side of the corrugated box.

Deliberate mistake: While Bill and Ralph are with Starlet in the motel room and the shooting starts Bill tells Ralph to go get the guys, and when Ralph changes into his suit and flies out of the window, the shot inside the bathroom is a flipped shot.
