Corrected entry: In 'Normal Again', when the demon in the basement throws Dawn into the corner watch in freeze frame. You can see as she looks up that it's not Michelle Trachtenberg but a much older stunt double with darker skin and different make up.
Corrected entry: When Cordelia see one of the girls trying out for the cheerleading squad, she makes the comment "Who does she think she is, a Laker Girl?", Charisma Carpenter was a Laker Girl in real life.
Correction: She was a cheerleader for the San Diego Chargers, which makes this not really trivia.
The Freshman - S4-E1
Corrected entry: At the end of the episode, when Buffy is fighting the vampires, she grabs a tennis racket, and just before she hits the vampire with it, the head of the racket flies off to the right of the screen and she continues to swing round and hit the vampire, running at her on the left of the screen, with the racket (minus the head).
Correction: That's not a mistake. All this proves is that even in the Buffyverse, tennis rackets can be poorly made.
Corrected entry: In "The I In Team", Buffy tells Maggie Walsh that's she's always wanted a pager. Buffy has already had a pager, seen in "Never Kill A Boy On The First Date". (00:12:05)
Correction: In "Never Kill A Boy On The First Date," she grabs Giles' pager out of his front jacket pocket when she says "If the Apocalypse comes, beep me." Buffy hasn't had a pager of her own prior to this moment.
Corrected entry: After Buffy smashes Larry into the vending machine, a Diet Dr Pepper comes out. However you can see in earlier shots that there is no button for Diet Dr Pepper.
Correction: All it takes is for the person stocking the machine to place the wrong drink in the machine for this to happen. I've worked at one place where you never got what you ordered from the machine because the supplier kept stocking it wrong. In fact, in Graduation Day Part 1, Willow says: "Oh trusty soda machine, I push you for Root Beer, you give me Coke."
The Freshman - S4-E1
Corrected entry: The vampires shouldn't be able to get into Eddie's room without his permission. Or does that rule change when the person who owns the property has died?
Correction: Once the owner is dead, the rule no longer applies. Not that it entirely matters in this particular case - dorm rooms, like hotel rooms, are not deemed to be 'owned' by the occupiers, they're considered to be public spaces. As such, the vampires can enter freely.
Corrected entry: In other episodes we see how easily vampires combust, but in this episode a match is thrown onto Angel's bare chest and it only burns him.
Correction: Older vampires don't burst into flame as easily as younger ones. VampWillow knows a match isn't enough fire to destroy Angel. (Otherwise, what would be the point of doing it to torture him?)
Corrected entry: If the mayor knows about both slayers (if he didn't know before hand, his assassin Trick would have told him) then surely he would have realised they were a threat and tried to eliminate them earlier. I appreciate it wouldn't have benefited the season at all but for a highly efficient mayor who was determined, his plan would go without a hitch. It seems pretty careless.
Correction: Faith was turned evil by the end of the season and Buffy wasn't really a threat by herself. The "Scooby Gang" helped out quite a bit. And maybe the mayor was just plain overconfident in his abilities and severely underestimated the scooby gang's. The French built an impenetrable wall along their border with Germany to stave off an invasion. Germany responded by going around the wall, invading Belgium and then France.
Corrected entry: Buffy manages to get right into Faith's apartment and has to turn the stereo off before Faith notices her there. In that amount of time and if Faith is being that oblivious, Buffy could have easily killed her by throwing the knife or using a crossbow, etc.
Correction: That's what separates the heroes from the villains: A hero will kill as a result of a fair fight, while a villain will do it from behind. It took nearly a hundred years before snipers were openly welcomed in the US military.
Fear, Itself - S4-E4
Corrected entry: The little demon is standing right next to the hole in the floor where Buffy ripped up the floorboards - so wouldn't her foot have gone through the board when she stamped hard enough to squash it?
Correction: How hard do you have to stomp to kill a bug? Or a mouse? Normal body weight easily does the trick.
Lover's Walk - S3-E8
Corrected entry: In this episode, the holy water shouldn't have hurt the vampires through their clothing.
Corrected entry: In 'Faith, Hope And Trick', Kakistos and the other vampires enter Faith's apartment without an invite.
Correction: Faith lives in a motel. Public accommodations are an exception to the invitation rule.
The Harsh Light Of Day - S4-E3
Corrected entry: When Spike and Harmony are near to the area of the Gem of Amara, Spike tells Harmony that she can't go out anywhere. Harmony is wearing a pink corset top, but when they reach the actual area of the gem, the top changes to a brighter pink halter neck. This happens in a short space of time, so she wouldn't have had time to change.
Correction: She would have had time to change. There is a whole sequence in between the two scenes with Harmony changing clothes that shows Buffy at various points during the day (she checks the answering machine several times). Several hours have probably passed between the two times we see Harmony. It could even be the next day.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Faith is stabbing the demon who has the Books of Ascension, we see her making the motion of stabbing him with her left hand, however, the knife is in her right.
Correction: I've watched this scene over and over and i can only see Faith with the knife in her right hand and stabbing him with her right hand. She only steadies the demon with her left hand as she goes to stab him.
Corrected entry: I don't know if anyone else has noticed this, but Buffy's kitchen door changes the side it's opened from across the show.
Get It Done - S7-E15
Corrected entry: At the end of the fight with the exchange demon in 'Get It Done' there is a shot of Robin helping Anya up off the ground, but Anya wasn't knocked over during the fight.
Correction: Anya was stil standing.
Conversations With Dead People - S7-E7
Corrected entry: When Dawn goes to close the front door and she turns around and sees that the mute is turned off, she runs back to the T.V and turns around in a panic. Behind her you can see the mute is still on (as it says "mute" in lime green writing at the top of the screen) but when it shows the T.V again, the mute is off.
Correction: My TV has developed the interesting habit of turning itself off & changing channels because of a problem with the electrics. Also, the house is infected with paranormal activity that's probably affecting the TV as well.
Corrected entry: William's crush in this episode, Cecily, is played by Kali Rocha. She will return in seasons six and seven as Halfrek, Anya's vengeance demon friend.
Correction: Cecily becomes Halfrek the vengence demon, hence the scene in season 6's "Older And Far Away" when Halfrek calls Spike William and he also seems shocked to see her.
Corrected entry: The location of a vampire's heart seems to migrate quite a bit across the show. We can see vamps staked in the center of the chest, on the left side, at the base of the sternum, and even (quite shallowly) in the back. Yet in Graduation Day, Pt. 1, we see that Angel's heart is very strictly defined by Faith's very accurate placement of an arrow in the left of his chest.
Correction: If you have to use freeze frame it isn't a mistake.
