Love, Daisies and Troubadours - S1-E21

Continuity mistake: When Lorelai tries to remember the name of the guy who used to run the auto-body shop, she opens the kitchen's back door in the interior shot, but in the next exterior shot Lorelai is walking out of the side living room door, with the window beside it. (00:06:15)

Emily In Wonderland - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: At Luke's, when Rachel shows Lorelai the photo of the Dragonfly Inn, Rachel says, "It's an old abandoned inn I ran across when I was exploring the other day." So Rachel took the photograph in the last few days, and in the photo the Dragonfly does not have shutters, and does not have a sign hanging over the porch, etc. When Lorelai visits the Dragonfly with Rachel and then with Rory, the shutters and sign have appeared, as well as other changes. (00:04:50 - 00:40:20)

The Third Lorelai - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: At the start, during dinner things on the sideboard move between wideshots and closeups of Rory. Fun to note: when Emily gets up and follows Richard to his seat, as Emily shouts to Siri that Mr. Gilmore is hungry, the camera pans a bit to the left and a water bottle (it's gone in Rory's closeups) has been placed on the sideboard, beside the sterling bud vase, which would cause Emily to have a fit. Obviously one of the actors or the crew left it there.

Forgiveness and Stuff - S1-E10

Visible crew/equipment: When Lorelai and Dean are talking through Rory's open window, Lorelai tells Dean that they have a nice front door he might want to use, and when Dean walks away the moving boom pole is visible through the top of the glass window, in front of the lattice. (00:13:35)

Love and War and Snow - S1-E8

Other mistake: After Lane goes home, when Rory watches her mom talking to Max note the short window over the kitchen sink behind Rory (not the tall window on the same wall). In the next shot, from outside that short window, we see Rory pull the photo strip out of her pocket then proceed to walk to that window and stand directly in front of it. The problem is there should be a sink and cabinets under that window blocking Rory from standing beside the window. (00:43:05)

Love and War and Snow - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When Rory comes home from her grandparents and talks to Lorelai about Max sleeping on the couch, into the kitchen and the red-white step stool chair is beside Rory's bedroom door, but when she and Lorelai walk into the kitchen it's gone, then it reappears after Lane leaves.

Kill Me Now - S1-E3

The Lorelais' First Day at Chilton - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Lorelai drives Rory to Chilton, the license plate at the front of her Jeep goes from being attached to the center of the bumper, to the side of the bumper, then back to the center of the bumper. Additionally, the Jeep's rearview mirror has vanished when they're parked at Chilton. (00:03:25)

Pilot - S1-E1

Visible crew/equipment: At the Kim house, when Lane and Rory reach the kitchen doorway, just as Mrs. Kim tells Lane that she has "muffins with no dairy, no sugar, no wheat," the boom pole dips into view at the top right corner of the screen. (00:11:35)

Emily In Wonderland - S1-E19

Emily: Well, uh, Rory, I don't think I wore the right shoes for the grand tour. Why don't we just drive?
Rory: You can borrow some of my mom's shoes.
Emily: Oh, no, I don't think so. Rory hold on a minute.
Rory: Grandma, you will be missing the true Stars Hollow experience if you don't walk. Trust me.
Emily: All right, but I won't wear anything with rhinestones or zebra stripes or anything that has batteries or that sings or make animal noises or moves on its own.
