P3 H2O - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: After Prue and Phoebe send contagious Piper back up to bed, it cuts to three consecutive shots of buses arriving at camp. In the first shot, the bus license plate is white with the number "2IAB345" and we see markings on the bus as the counselor exits. The second closer shot shows two kids exiting the bus. Then in the third wideshot, with those same two kids beside the door, the license plate is now blue with the number "876QPD" and we see the same markings on the bus as in the first shot, so we know it's the same bus.

All Halliwell's Eve - S3-E4

Visible crew/equipment: After the Grimlocks enter the manor Leo calls for Piper then rushes out of the kitchen, and when it cuts to the shot of the dining room the edge of the crew's black mat is visible at the bottom of the screen. The black mat is again when the sisters are pulled into the time portal, though the only thing we should be seeing is the fringed area rug. (00:04:00)

Bride and Gloom - S3-E13

Continuity mistake: While Dantalian tries to steal the Book of Shadows from the attic Piper and Phoebe surprise her, then when Phoebe kicks Dantalian and she falls we see the stuntwoman's footwear has chunky sole ridges, but when the sisters approach Dantalian her shoes have heels. (00:32:10)

Astral Monkey - S2-E20

Visible crew/equipment: When the sisters hide the chimps in the laundry cart to slip out of the hospital, the blue T-mark is visible on the floor at the bottom of the screen, before they peek around the corner and notice the TV. (00:20:15)

Murphy's Luck - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: When Prue shows her sisters the article in 415 Magazine with her photo credit, in the closeup we see that Prue opens the magazine with the article and Maggie's photograph on the page to the right, but in the next shot facing Piper and Phoebe the magazine is folded open and they're looking at the page to the left with an entirely different page to the right. (00:40:40)

Animal Pragmatism - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: When the ani-men break into the manor the entire large center glass of the left door ends up broken, but later while Phoebe is looking for the hydrogen peroxide, Prue notices the front doors and the left door's center glass is intact with only the bottom corner broken. (00:22:00 - 00:27:05)

Animal Pragmatism - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: After the manor is broken into, in the following shots while everyone is in the foyer the left front door is wide open in most shots, but in some other shots both front doors are closed during this scene. (00:21:50)

Cole: Phoebe, I love you. I don't know what's going on but maybe I can help. Would you like me to kill someone for you?

Answer: That was a mistake in the series.

Also, the episode is called 'Babies First Demon' and this alone tells us that it's Wyatt's first time in the field (so to speak) and as the sisters say, they've done a good job of clearing up their own magical messes so far. Nobody really knows how advanced Wyatt's powers are, or will become. That's why the cleaners appear, to nip things in the bud. The Cleaners didn't want to chance that the sisters could clean Wyatt's magic up, just incase they couldn't. Therefore intervening themselves, just in case.

Chosen answer: When the cleaners first surface in season 6 it is mentioned that usually the girls have been able to clean up their own messes (as seen in season 3 episode 22 when Phoebe turns back time thus concluding in the death of Prue).

Answer: Because they wanted them to fix their own mistakes.
