Angel (1999) - 91 mistakes in entire show

Revealing: At the end of the opening credits, you can see Angel's reflection in the puddle on the floor. Since he is a vampire, this should not happen.

Revealing: In the last scene of the episode, Angel kicks the guy out of the glass building. This guy's a vampire, and you can see his reflection in the glass windows. Vampires aren't supposed to have reflections.

Continuity: When Angel is talking to Cordelia in the garden at the very end of the episode "Supersymmetry" he has a cut on his cheek. The beginning of "Spin The Bottle" is the continuation of that scene, but Angel's face no longer has a cut.

Revealing: In the scene when Angel, a vampire, runs after the barman towards the end, after the barman has tried to pass on the demon to Kate and Angel stopped him, there is a mirror, and when Angel runs past it, he has a reflection.

Continuity: When Angel kicks the vampire out the window, he does it with little effort and movement, but when the shot goes from outside the building, he's swinging his body like he's put more into it.

Continuity: When Gunn is talking to Wesley near the start of the episode, he mentions that he's tracked Lindsay down, and that he's been living under the name "Doyle", and holds out the lease of his apartment. There's a close-up of the lease a few seconds later, in which the name "Lindsay McDonald" can be seen.

Continuity: When Angel is talking to Spike after he's had his hands re-attached, Spike is hooked up to an IV. If you watch the IV bag between shots, the fluid level changes from 1/4 full to 1/2 full.

Continuity: In the season one episode 'I Will Remember You' when Buffy and Angel are talking in the sewer Buffy's hair goes from being just a few strands over her shoulder to having a whole side over it, and back again.

Revealing: When Alonna is kidnapped, there is a vampire on the left side of the screen who is not wearing any mask over his face, though sunlight is falling on him.

Continuity: In the scene where Angel has just returned and given Cordelia her necklace, watch Cordelia's hands; they keep changing position in each shot. In one shot she is trying to put the necklace on, in the next shot she appears to have given up and brings her hands down and bundles the necklace in her hand. Then when the shot changes to behind her, she is trying to fasten the necklace behind her neck again. This happens a few times during this scene.

Revealing: You see Cordelia and Wesley walking without Angel through the gym in the mirror (because vampires have no reflection). In the Widescreen Edition you can see Angel waiting at the right side of the screen to join in a "normal" shot.

Audio problem: The lips of the Newscaster's who reports on Conner taking over the sports store do not match what she is saying at all.

Continuity: In the scene where Angelus is drinking from dead Lilah, in one shot Lilah's hand is hanging by her side while Angelus holds her, but in the next shot - just before he drops her - Lilah's hand is gripping for support at Angelus shoulder.

Revealing: When Angel kicks in Lindsay's door, it opens cleanly into the room. The doorknob latch in a real door would have torn out part of the frame if it was not turned back with the doorknob first.

Continuity: In season three episode "Anne" of BTVS, The character "Anne" who later comes to season two of Angel running a youth shelter had a rather large red tattoo of half a heart on her arm. However, no trace of it is to be found when she is on Angel. Tattoo removal is a rather pricey procedure, and she seems to be tight on cash until she gets the two million. Even if W&H would have paid for the procedure, there would be some scarring or residual pigments for such a large tattoo. (It's definitely the same character - Anne says that she used to think vampires were cool, until she met one. That's a reference to her first appearance (as "Chanterelle"), in which she belonged to a vampire-loving cult.)

Continuity: In Season One Finale, "To Shanshu in LA" when Wes is lecturing Cordy on wants and desires, the number of bites taken from the doughnut changes, in one instance it breaks in half, most visibly when Wes takes a bite from Cordy's doughnut on the angle change.

Revealing: In "To Shanshu in LA" in season one, as Angel is pulling out of parking lot to follow the W&H Trucks, you can see his reflection in his rear view mirror (vampires have no reflections). Also odd that throughout the first season the rear view mirror is removed in some episodes.

Other: In the episode "The shroud of Rahmon," when Angel changes into his vampire face, his teeth don't change into fangs.

Factual error: Wesley has his throat cut, deeply enough to at least nick the artery (based on the amount of blood) and the windpipe (based on his difficulties breathing and talking later on), yet he somehow survives being left alone in the park for over 24 hours. In reality, he would have been dead long before then.

Continuity: when Angel transforms into his inner beast for the first time he is seen ripping off the right leg of an Imperial guard, but in following shot the leg is intact and it stays like that for the rest of the fight.
