Continuity mistake: Between takes at the end of the final fight scene, most of the chairs shift positions around the table, the wooden partition screen that fell over during the scuffle has somehow folded itself, and a white cloth that was draped over one of the chairs has disappeared. (00:22:00)
Continuity mistake: At the end, when Minstrel is cornered by the Dynamic Duo, he pulls out his sparking remote unit. After being told it won't work, as O'Hara cuffs him, the unit that was in his hand disappears.
Factual error: King Tut is said here to have been a 4th Dynasty ruler. Just as in the previous Tut episode, Egyptian history seems to have entirely escaped Batman's writers. They previously mis-identified Tut's namesake as a 14th Dynasty ruler, and this time around, guessed wrong again. In fact, Tutenkamen's brief rule was part of the 18th Dynasty. (00:03:30)
Continuity mistake: As Tut prepares to re-animate the scarab beetles, his apothecary henchman stands to his immediate right, close enough to touch his shoulder. But when the shot cuts to a wider angle, the man is standing a foot away. (00:08:45)
Other mistake: When Tut's henchman slowly reads that Bruce Wayne will donate his talking sphinx to the Black Museum at Scotland Yard from a newspaper, a close-up shows he is reading it upside down.
Other mistake: The opening scene and dialogue with Bruce and Dick responding to Gordon's call is from The Curse of Tut.
Continuity mistake: Tut's crocodiles are menacing in the close-up, but in the scene where Robin is over the moving ledge, the crocodiles are very fake.
Tut's Case is Shut (2) - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: Tut's "pets," which are a little too obviously plastic, are crocodiles (with pointed snouts), and they're sitting on a grassy island in their water tank. The stock footage inserts, however, are of alligators (which have flat snouts) swimming in open water, with no island in sight. (00:02:30)
Tut's Case is Shut (2) - S2-E8
Revealing mistake: While Chief O'Hara is outside on the ledge of the top floor, King Tut commands him to use the flagpole to do acrobatics. When O'Hara obeys Tut, the vertical wire at the end of the flagpole is visible. (00:08:20)
The Greatest Mother of Them All (1) - S2-E9
Visible crew/equipment: While the GCPD has the Parker house surrounded Ma sits herself down on a rocking chair, and in the next shot as the officer uses the bullhorn to announce she doesn't have a chance, the reflection of the boom pole/mic is visible on the windshield. (00:07:05)
The Greatest Mother of Them All (1) - S2-E9
Revealing mistake: When Ma Parker activates her jet-propelled wheelchair, the much younger stunt woman's face is visible as the chair speeds down the hallway toward Batman and Robin. (00:09:15)
Visible crew/equipment: After Batman and Robin use their infrared eyeglasses on the Parker boys, Batman turns on the emergency generator switch and Legs escapes. Then the Dynamic Duo deliver a bit of exposition, and when they walk over to Ma Parker, their curved chalk marks are visible on the floor behind Robin. (00:22:10)
Continuity mistake: When Batman is strapped into the electric chair, his utility belt is the standard flat-front, blank, yellow boxes. Once Batman breaks the wire loose to send a message, there is a large, black and yellow button attached to the the right front of the belt.
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes (1) - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: Clock King renders the art gallery patrons unconscious with a high-frequency sound wave. As they fall, one of the men drops his hat. When they come to and get up, the hat has disappeared. (00:15:20 - 00:19:10)
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes (1) - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When Clock King steals his favorite painting from the gallery, as he places it through the wall hole note the strips of tape adhered to the paintings back, and its hanging wire near the bottom (it's upside down). In the next shot from the other side of the wall hole, the painting is now turned the opposite way (it's right side up), note the tape strips. (00:16:25)
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes (1) - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: During the fight in the art gallery, the papers on the desk to the left of the screen are scattered. But in some shots of the fight progressing, the same papers have straightened themselves back into nice, neat stacks again. (00:17:00)
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes (1) - S2-E11
Visible crew/equipment: After the Dynamic Duo climb up the side of the building they enter through the window, and a chalk T-mark is visible on the floor where Batman stops when he sees Clock King sitting at a desk. Then, as Batman and Robin slide around on the floor coated with watch oil, when Clock King stands up we can also see the curved chalk mark on the floor by his feet. (00:21:50)
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes (1) - S2-E11
Other mistake: When Clock King activates the coils to ensnare Batman and Robin, the coils ensnare Batman first, while Robin just reacts. In the next shot, Robin is tangled as well.
The Clock King's Crazy Crimes (1) - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: After starting the sand in the giant hourglass, Clock King puts on his alarm clock top hat. Between distance and close shots, the clock reads a few minutes to three, then Three o'clock in the closeups.
The Clock King Gets Crowned (2) - S2-E12
Factual error: Trapped in the overturned hourglass, Batman and Robin lie flat and begin furiously digging in the sand, making the hourglass roll out the door. But to cause such rapid movement, they'd need to be applying their weight against one of the glass sides (like a hamster in a ball). Just digging in the sand wouldn't get them anywhere, at least not that quickly. (00:04:15)
Answer: There were three well-known actors who played Mr. Freeze, each one a different height, weight, and physique. As these were notable guest stars, the costume designers would adapt the costume to best fit each actor who likely would want to avoid comparisons to the other Mr. Freezes, incorporate their preferences, as well as refresh the look, rework whatever didn't work in previous versions, and so on.
