Jack Bauer: Do you understand the difference between dying for something and dying for nothing? The only reason I fought so hard to stay alive in China was because I didn't want to die for nothing. Today, I can die for something.

Season: Whole show  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  All

7:00 A.M.-8:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 8)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Nina's just been shot, and makes it to the barn to call CTU (around 7.10am), while she's speaking on the phone there's a cameraman visible on the right hand side (DVD).

Mistake Continuity: When Jack stops at the bus station to get a bag, we see a shot of Jacks car from the point of view of the guy who has the bag. You can see a quite big camera inside the car on the left side. When we see the reverse shot from inside of the car, the camera is gone.

1:00 A.M.-2:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 2)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: Jack Bauer and his boss are in a building at night with a shooter hidden somewhere. They open a door and look very carefully to the right and then to the left before going through the door. On the right side you can briefly see two crew members and as the camera pulls forward they back up some so they won't be seen.

5:00 A.M.-6:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 6)

Mistake Continuity: During season one of 24, Jack answers his mobile to Gains and we see footage of Jack on a CCTV camera. The CCTV footage shows medical staff moving, yet when they cut back to the camera in the hall the medical staff are in different places, they keep changing places and keep disappearing and re-appearing and the CCTV footage is about two seconds ahead of the footage in the corridor.

6:00 P.M.-7:00 P.M. (season 1, episode 19)

Mistake Continuity: The 6:00PM-7:00PM episode ends when it is still light outside. The 7:00PM-8:00PM Episode begins when it is completly dark (no sunset/dusk/twilight) The show is supposed to be in "real-time" but as the sun goes down it gradually gets darker, it does not just become dark from one second to the next.

3:00 A.M.-4:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 4)

Mistake Continuity: When Jack drives to 18166 San Fernando Road he stops the car, gets out and leaves his phone in the car - you can see the green light of the phone's screen - he didn't reach for it. However, when Teri calls him, he has the phone in his pocket.

9:00 P.M.-10:00 P.M. (season 1, episode 22)

Mistake Continuity: In the previous hour, Pattie has long straight hair down to her shoulders. We see this all the way through, even at the very end. Yet at the start of episode 22, when she is now at the party a mere 10 minutes later, her hair is very much shorter. There is no way she would be able to get ready for the party in that time, let alone have her hair cut.

Day 2: 5:00 A.M.-6:00 A.M. (season 2, episode 22)

Mistake Plot hole: When Kim sees Gary she runs into the master bedroom, hides her bags, goes into the closet and up to the attic - all in the time it takes Gary to run five yards to the bedroom door. And considering how much noise the attic door made he should have heard her. Plus, how did she manage to get the door hatch closed when she had gone up?

11:00 P.M.-12:00 Midnight (season 1, episode 24)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: At around 11:30pm, just when Jack is preparing to take his first shots at the Drazen's as they are running towards the speedboat, you can see a cameraman/technician (wearing a face shield), and a TV monitor behind Jack's head.

2:00 A.M.-3:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 3)

Mistake Continuity: At about 2:15am, when Jack's talking to Nina about the passenger list on the plane, we see a shot of Jack in the top left, and Nina in the top right. Because it's real time they're both meant to match up - we're watching them both at the same time. In each shot we can see the back of the other's head, but while Jack is looking down and around in the left-hand shot, in the right-hand shot his head is staying perfectly still.

Day 2: 7:00 A.M.-8:00 A.M. (season 2, episode 24)

Mistake Plot hole: Peter Kingsley is shot and killed by a man in a helicopter just as he is about to kill Jack. One might wonder how come Kingsley didn't hear the chopper approaching.

1:00 A.M.-2:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 2)

Mistake Continuity: When Jack is outside Dunlop Plaza, talking to Nina on the phone, he says, "Nina, it's Jack." But the transcript Tony looks at a few seconds later reads, "Nina, it's me, Jack."

12:00 Midnight-1:00 A.M. (season 1, episode 1)

Mistake Continuity: When Jack is on the phone with his wife as he is entering the CTU building, when you can see him in two different shots, he is holding the phone differently in each shot.

12:00 Noon-1:00 P.M. (season 1, episode 13)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Jack, Kim and Teri are at the compound, Kim stands up shortly before Gaines first shot. On the left you see a crew member kneeling.

Day 3: 11:00 A.M.-12:00 P.M. (season 3, episode 23)

Mistake Revealing: When Sherry is shot, the impact is visible on her shirt, but no gunshot wounds can be seen on her skin underneath, which can be seen as she falls to the ground.

2:00 P.M.-3:00 P.M. (season 1, episode 15)

Mistake Continuity: In Episode 15 (Day 1), the pregnancy test that Teri takes to the bathroom is a "TrueBlue" (close up shot on it), but the one that Kim finds there is a "ClearBlue".
