Mistake Continuity: After George dodges the toad on the floor, she walks backwards up onto some steps, yet she walks up the same step twice.

Mistake Plot hole: People who do not have their souls retrieved, before they are killed, will suffer the effects of the death on their soul, eg. the autopsied man has scars and cuts on his soul. So how come the woman who was crushed by a piano (whose soul was only ever retrieved afterwards) is unharmed in soul form?

Mistake Continuity: When Mason and George are about to go into the house of the murdered accountant they show the lock from the inside of the apartment and it's unlocked. When they show it again it's locked and then Mason unlocks it.

Mistake Continuity: George drops the red file from her stack of files to deliver, yet in the next shot you can still see the red file in the stack.

Mistake Continuity: When George delivers the files to some guy, while at her job, her hair keeps on changing position over her shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: When George is filing, she is told it is her lunch hour. Between shots her hair flips over her shoulder.

Mistake Continuity: When Rube and George are speaking to George at the site of her death, Betty's scarf continuously changes postions.

Mistake Continuity: When George is flicking through files in a drawer, they change positions between shots, when the man tells her its her lunch hour.

Mistake Continuity: When Betty is leaving the diner table to meet someone, she puts her bag on her shoulder. In the next shot, it's in her hands.

Mistake Revealing: When Mason and George walk up to the TV's in the store, the TV images do not match Mason and George's movements, as it records them.

Mistake Continuity: When George writes "moist" on the fridge, to give her mum a sign, the position of the 'T' magnet changes between shots.

Mistake Revealing: Reapers look 'different' in reflections and recordings, yet sometimes you can catch them with 'normal' reflections, eg. Rube in the diner window.

Mistake Continuity: When the first Reaper who touched George magically disappears, people in the background appear out of nowhere and disappear out of nowhere.

Mistake Continuity: When George is sitting on the train, watching the little girl she is supposed to reap, the position of the ticket on the seat beside her changes.

Mistake Continuity: When everyone is lying on the bank floor during the robbery, George crawls over to Mason. In the following shot she is back where she was before.

Mistake Continuity: When George delivers the files to the guy at work, the top file on the stack changes positions between shots.

Mistake Continuity: When Rube sits down on the bus station bench, before George gets on the train, to reap her first person, he crosses his legs twice.

Curious George

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Rube shakes hands with the animal protesters, he is not wearing the trash bag while shaking their hands. He is wearing the trash bag immediately before and after.

Reaping Havoc

Mistake Plot hole: When George gets into the lift at her office, her reflection is very obvious on the sliding doors, but we were told back in the pilot that Reapers have a different visage to the outside world that shows up in reflections, on camera etc.

Mistake Audio problem: Each time George mentions Millie's older brother Luke, the movements of her mouth don't match what's being said. It appears that the name was changed and then dubbed afterwards.
