Other mistake: At the end of a scene showing the dog, the scene is reversed (mirror image) for a moment. (00:08:50)
Follow That Witch (2) - S2-E29
Revealing mistake: When Samantha starts trashing the private detective's apartment, she causes a chandelier to fall onto a coffee table, breaking the table. However, it is easy to see that the table breaks just before the chandelier falls on it. (00:20:10)
Aunt Clara's Old Flame - S2-E11
Revealing mistake: Aunt Clara levitates her doorknob collection to put it away. As they pass in front of her, the wires used to make them levitate become visible. (00:06:15)
Continuity mistake: When Sam is looking for Darrin to tell him the good news, Aunt Clara walks into the living room holding the large book with its cloth bookmark hanging over the top front of the book (facing Sam), but in the next shot the bookmark has switched to hanging over the top back of the book (facing Clara). (00:13:40)
A Very Special Delivery - S2-E2
Visible crew/equipment: Darrin and Larry sit down for a meeting. Against the glass wall of the meeting room behind them you can see the shadow of a boom mic.
Continuity mistake: When Rodney is at the bottom of the stairs announcing phase 1 of operation breakup is a success, Samantha is at the top of the stairs. The camera edit is really bad and Samantha jumps forward about 3 feet.
Revealing mistake: When Endora turns Darrin into "Ringo"/"Prince Valliant" when he touches his "hair", it moves, revealing it's a wig.
Other mistake: The map behind the officer is of Southern California. The series is supposed to be set in the NY tri-state area. (00:12:45)
A Very Special Delivery - S2-E2
Continuity mistake: When Darrin and Samantha are in a bar with a man eating popcorn. The place mat changes position and the drink moves closer to the man from one shot to the next.
Continuity mistake: When Aunt Clara tells Sam not to worry about Darrin because she has her book of spells, there's a closeup of the book with its binding facing left and Clara pointing to the large title "Spells and Incantations" on its cover, but in other shots Clara's holding the book with its binding facing right (we see Vol. 7 on the binding) so the cover is facing the opposite way, and there is no title on the cover. (00:14:00)
Continuity mistake: Aunt Clara crashes into the pagoda and is helped up by Darrin and Samantha. They head inside and you can see Aunt Clara's purse sitting in the pagoda to the bottom left. But when all three enter the house, Aunt Clara is now carrying her purse. (01:14:00 - 01:20:00)
Samantha the Dressmaker - S2-E22
Revealing mistake: When Samantha and Endora are in Paris reviewing models in dresses, the models are frozen because Samantha and Endora are not supposed to be in the dress shop. One of the models, instead of being frozen, is seen blinking her eye and moving slightly.
Follow That Witch (2) - S2-E29
Factual error: When Charlie Leach is walking back to USA from Mexico he stops close to a sign that reads "Nueva York 2138 miles". Either the sign should read "New York..." or the distance should be stated in kilometers.
Continuity mistake: In "Double Split" Larry says that he gets hives when he plays golf. In following episodes, Larry Tate golfs with Darrin, and feels fine. (00:24:20)
Answer: Telstar was an early communications satellite system. Darrin, in a particularly sexist manner reflective of this era, is saying that telling a secret to a woman means it is guaranteed to be "broadcasted" to multiple people.
