The Hit Car - S1-E3

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. Not only is Ralph's watch on the wrong wrist in this shot, but later the bathroom is shown the correct way. (00:15:15)

Divorce Venusian Style - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Pam, Ralph, and Bill are in the wiener wagon, Bill pulls over and uses the curbside telephone to call Phillips.

(00:34:45)

Desperado - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: While King's ranch hands are illegally gathering up the mustangs, Matt gets on the walkie talkie to tell others to go after the black stallion, then when two of the men on horseback chase the stallion the horses they're riding change during this scene - note the white facial markings and coat. (00:04:15)

Desperado - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: The small horse trailer hitched up to the back of Ralph and Pam's station wagon has the license plate number, T-479E5, which is visible a few times, then when Ralph is on King's property he gets a vision of Desperado's location, and just as Ralph does his vanishing thing, one of King's horse trailers has the same license plate with the number, T-479E5. (00:13:50 - 00:33:50)

Desperado - S3-E12

Visible crew/equipment: While Ralph and Pam are watching the mustangs Ralph starts taking pictures, then when Pam points to the black stallion, in the first shot of that beautiful stallion the animal trainer can be seen hiding behind the bush. (00:02:40)

Desperado - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: After Ralph stops two of King's ranch hands from getting Desperado, Ralph is beaten up and left lying on the ground, then just as Desperado nudges Ralph awake Ralph's shirt is entirely different in this shot. Also, note the horse's feed on the ground under Ralph, used to keep the horse's attention so it appears to be nudging Ralph. (00:05:45)

Revealing mistake: When Ralph picks up the guy who was stealing mustangs and takes off with him over his shoulder, while they're in the air the cushion under Ralph is visible in the closeups. (00:18:00)

Toy Story 3 (2010)

Trivia: When Woody thinks the toys who were in the trash bag are being crushed at the back of the garbage truck, the truck's license plate number is RM237. Then later, when Woody goes back to Sunnyside to rescue his friends, Chatter Telephone warns him about the Monkey who is the "eye in the sky" while watching the security monitors, and in a couple of shots of those monitors there's a box at the right side of the table which has a very distinctive design. Both are nods to the movie The Shining. (00:56:15)
