Dead Like Me (2003) - 40 mistakes in entire show

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?

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

Continuity: When Daisy takes Stan to church, she takes a seat in the fourth row and sets her purse down. After the window breaks, she runs outside, leaving her purse in the pew. When she returns to find Stan gone, the purse is in the fifth row.

Continuity: When George writes Nina's name on the sticky note she holds it up and we see the writing is small but then we see a close up and the writing it bigger and the handwriting is a little different.

Continuity: When Daisy is in the diner with the other reapers talking about her acting job, the fruit in her hand changes from a red grape or cherry to a green grape.

Continuity: In the airport, when Mrs. Thibideaux (Roxy's reap) sees the cluttered luggage holding up her suitcase, she climbs over the first few bags and tosses the others down. Before she even started climbing, the conveyer belt was stopped which meant the luggage that she climbed over (including what looked like a bag with skis) would still be in the way. Yet when she falls, it's a clean slide down to break her neck.

Audio problem: When Daisy is at the bar (acting), she gives Walter "5 reasons men come to a bar." When she says "Three: They wanna see that they're missing," her lips are not in sync with the words. It's tricky to see because they used a shot with the camera behind her.

Other: When Rube is searching the hard-copy (paper) archives, the young man with him opens the last box and pulls out an old "Wanted" poster with Rube's face on it. He tells Rube "This guy looks just like you." Since season 1, episode 1, we've known that Grim Reapers don't look like they did when they were alive (i.e., Millie/Un-George). Yet somehow, Rube has not changed since his life/death.

Other: In the copy room, George, after she speaks with Daisy in voice over, says "its 3am", but the clock on the wall behind Crystal shows 12:35 when George talks to Crystal.

Other: When Mason is punching the air and Nina imitates him the chair wiggles with the motion of her body but since she is dead she would pass through it.

Continuity: When Rube's talking to the graffiti artist, he's painting what looks like a blue cat. We cut away, hear a brief paint spray, then cut back. There's now far more painted than that spray could have achieved, and what was there already has changed as well.

Visible crew/equipment: During George's funeral, the camera swings around to follow the employee from Happy Time (the guy who George gives files, minus the red ones, to) and as he crosses the room to the other side, you see a crew member holding a boom mic, who looks over a little startled and moves back out of view.

Plot hole: Dead Like Me: Life After Death DVD movie: When he's robbing the grocery store, we see Mason from the point of view of the security camera. We see the Mason that the reapers and the dead see, but we should be seeing the face that is visible to the outside world.

Continuity: Dead Like Me: Life After Death DVD movie: In the scene outside the theatre, the flower appears in Daisy's hand before Mason has given it to her.

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.
