Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: Talking with her daughter at the end of the episode, Chloe stifles her laughter with her hand in front of her mouth. In the matching reaction shot her hand is still on her chest. It happens again twice. (00:40:30)
Lucifer, Stay. Good Devil. - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Chloe asks Jimmy about Lucifer at the end of the episode, her good arm is down her side when seen from behind, or folded in the frontal views. (00:42:25)

The Sin Bin - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: When Chloe and Lucifer approach Maggie's car, it's parked next to a car that has pulled in forward (so the trunk is seen). But after they open the door, the car next to Maggie's car is now pulled in backwards (so the front is seen).
Stewardess Interruptus - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When Chloe tells Lucifer that her main priority is the case and that nothing is going to happen between them, her hair on the right side of her face tucks itself behind her right ear between shots. It then falls down again, then tucks itself once more. (00:34:40)
Continuity mistake: When Lucifer helps Amenadiel, who has been stabbed with one of Mazikeen's daggers, Lucifer has one hand on Amenadiel and one by the dagger. The camera cuts, and now he has both hands on Amenadiel. (00:21:45)
Continuity mistake: When Linda asks Amenadiel if he is a real doctor, he has both hands raised. Camera cuts and now he only has one raised. (00:08:20)
St. Lucifer - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: The way Malcolm holds the gun when showing it to Dan changes between shots. Note his grip. (00:06:30)
St. Lucifer - S1-E11

A Priest Walks Into a Bar - S1-E9

A Priest Walks Into a Bar - S1-E9
Continuity mistake: When talking to the priest in Lux, Lucifer's hands are constantly changing positions between cuts. (00:24:20)

Favorite Son - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: The way Trixie grabs the chocolate cake differs from raising her hand up to Dan and just holding it out in another shot. (00:37:20)
Answer: Boo Normal and Once Upon a Time were going to be part of season 4, then the show got cancelled (before being picked up elsewhere). As such they were added on to the end of season three as "bonus" episodes, hence the continuity being off. But not really a mistake, just a quirk of broadcasting. Boo Normal was originally going to be between the episodes "High School Poppycock" and "Infernal Guinea Pig" in season 3 before being slated for season 4, presumably because aside from the point you've raised, it was fairly flexible, continuity-wise.
