Trivia

The way Spike enters Sunndydale (driving into the sign) is a reference to the first time we met Spike in the season 2 episode "School Hard." Both times he drives into the sign, however in School Hard he steps out but in Lovers Walk he falls out, drunk. The music is even the same. See more...

I Only Have Eyes For You (season 2, episode 19)

⇑
⇓

Factual error: In the episode 'I Only Have Eyes For You', during the flashbacks to 1955 James and Grace dance, and James later shoots himself, to the song 'I Only Have Eyes For You', which wasn't released until 1959.

Halloween (season 2, episode 6)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Willow is turned into a ghost. Throughout the entire episode, she can't touch anything (can't turn the pages of a book, etc.), yet towards the end when she and Giles go to Ethan's shop, and she leaves, you can hear that she opened and closed the door, even though she can walk through walls and can't actually touch the door. The curtain moves when she leaves too.

Edit Time

Anne (season 3, episode 1)

⇑
⇓

Revealing: During the fight scene at the end when Buffy is fighting the demons you see her throw one of the demons off the platform. If you watch him fall you can see him land safely on a conveniently placed mat.

Chosen (season 7, episode 22)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Sunnydale apparently has docks ('Consequences' and 'Surprise') and is quite close to a beach ('Go Fish'), but when Sunnydale is destroyed in 'Chosen', we see an overhead shot of the crater and it appears to be in the middle of the desert, far from any coastline.

Teacher's Pet (season 1, episode 4)

Factual error: In Teacher's Pet, Doctor Gregory was giving the class a lecture about ants. But he projects an image of a beetle onto the wall behind him.

The Pack (season 1, episode 6)

Continuity: Willow fills the test tube halfway with the witch-detecting potion, but when she hands it to Buffy it is only one-quarter full.

Never Kill A Boy On The First Date (season 1, episode 5)

⇑
⇓

Factual error: In the famous scene where Buffy tells Giles, "If the Apocalypse comes, beep me," she grabs her pager from out of shot. Trouble is, she's standing in the middle of her hall and there's nowhere she could have picked the gadget up from.

Edit Time

When She Was Bad (season 2, episode 1)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Joyce is driving Buffy to school and she is wearing a pink tank top. At school that day her shirt is white, but the next day at school she is back to wearing the pink outfit.

What's My Line? (1) (season 2, episode 9)

⇑
⇓

Plot hole: If Spike and his gang only take a few hours to break through the door to Ford's club in 'Lie To Me' (which we are told is six feet of solid steel), why can't Angel break through a thin wire door that visibly shakes every time he hits it, given the same amount of time, in the episode 'What's My Line? Part 1'?

This Year's Girl (1) (season 4, episode 15)

⇑
⇓

Visible crew/equipment: In the episode 'This Year's Girl', when the Scoobies find the demon in the woods that Adam has cut open you can see a boom mike operator in the background.

Edit Time

Triangle (season 5, episode 11)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: In the season five episode Triangle, Anya says she has never driven before, but in Graduation Day part one she tells Xander she has her car right outside.

Edit Submitted by angelus1girl Time

Same Time, Same Place (season 7, episode 3)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: In episode 'Same Place, Same Time', Gnarl cuts Dawn across the stomach paralysing her and ripping her shirt, but when Buffy and Xander are carying her home there is no tear in her shirt or any blood. Also when Buffy goes back to kill Gnarl he tears her shirt but seconds later the rip has gone.

Edit

I Robot, You Jane (season 1, episode 8)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Buffy's birthdate starts at 1979. In "I Robot, You Jane", when the demon pulls up Buffy's file in the school system, it shows her year of birth as 1980 and her year as sophomore. But when her file comes up on the student's computer screen, it's changed to 1979 and that she is a senior. It wasn't until towards the end of season 1 in "Nightmares" that her birth year is 1981 (on her tombstone before she comes out as a vampire).

Edit Picture Time

Lessons (season 7, episode 1)

⇑
⇓

Plot hole: The First (as Drusilla) touches and moves Spike's hair, However it is made very well clear later in the season that The First is not corporeal, which means it is unable to physically touch anything.

Edit

The Gift (season 5, episode 22)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: In the last episode of Season 5 we see Spike thrown off the tower by Doc. Spike somehow manages to change from black trousers and boots into blue jeans and white shoes mid-air. He's back in black by the time he hits the ground.

Edit Picture Time

Phases (season 2, episode 15)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: When Willow is running from the werewolf she falls and there's a big mud stain on her pants. In the next scene when she runs into the library it's gone.

Edit Submitted by Shay Picture Time

Inca Mummy Girl (season 2, episode 4)

⇑
⇓

Audio problem: When Xander, Willow and Ampata meet up at The Bronze, the song the band is playing is at the point of a guitar solo. If you watch Oz (who has already been established as 'lead guitarist') on stage in the background; he's blatantly NOT playing that solo. The hand movements don't match up.
