House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Jack is packing water bottles in to the sack and Locke says "I think One of Us should stay and help Charlie salvage the wreckage", you see Jack putting a bottle in to the sack. His hands are now empty, but when it cuts he suddenly has a new bottle in his hand which he puts in to the sack. (00:16:05)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Other mistake: When Walt says to his dad that his mum never talks about him, something briefly blows into shot at the top of the screen. There is no logical explanation for this as they are walking by the water, under no cover and nothing is around. (00:18:50)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Kate asks Jack if she is checking her out after he walks past her, in the top left corner you can see a black boom microphone appear in the shot for a second. (Not visible on DVD.) (00:21:30)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: As Kate and Jack head back to the beach, while Jack explains why they should move to the caves, when Kate lifts the bag and slings it round her shoulder, opposite sides of the bag face out between the first and second shots. Then, in the third shot it hangs from her shoulder very differently. (00:22:15)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: Sun's left earlobe has a cleft, but while Jin is still cuffed to the wreckage, Sun watches Michael head off through the trees (to cut firewood) and in this close-up it is Sun's right earlobe with the cleft. The shot is flipped. (00:28:40)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When Sun is asking Michael's help to free Jin, from behind, Michael's right arm is raised, but from the front, his left arm is raised, and the axe also switches hands. (00:30:10)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: After Jack brings some survivors back to the cave, there is a shot of Hurley turning on his CD player to listen to Willie Nelson. In the next shot of Jack, as he fills bottles with water, his large tattoo is on his right upper arm, but normally it is on his left. The shot is flipped. (00:39:40)

The Moth - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Sayid goes to climb the tree for the second antenna, Kate has got most of her rocket stick sticking out of the backpack. When she turns to leave, there is only a small amount sticking out. (00:22:40)

The Moth - S1-E7

Visible crew/equipment: When Charlie and his brother are arguing backstage, as his brother rushes out shouting "P*ss off," you can see a crew member move in the mirror on the left and the right side. If you watch closely you can see the producers tried blurring the mirrors, but still they weren't able to remove the crew member. (00:27:40)

Mortug

Tabula Rasa - S1-E3

Locke: Do you play checkers with your Pop?
Walt: No. I live in Australia with My Mom. She got sick, she died a couple of weeks ago.
Locke: You're having a bad month.

Trivia: The character Sun was created specifically for Yoon-jin Kim, after she auditioned for the role of Kate but the writers felt she was not right for the role.

The End (2) - S6-E18

Question: I recently submitted a question about whether everyone died on the plane or on the island. The answer I got was unsatisfactory. The answer was they did not all die in the plane crash but on the island where the events in the show really did happen. If this is the case, everyone in purgatory at the end makes no sense. If they all died on the island, then where were other characters like Michael, Ecko, etc. Also how did Kate, Sawyer, Hurley, Ben, etc. end up dead and in purgatory at the end of the series? Last we saw them they were still alive on the island. Are we to assume that everyone died at the end of last season when the bomb went off? I need more info here.

Chosen answer: None of the main characters died in the plane crash. Many died on the island after the crash (Jack, Charlie, Sun, Jin, Daniel, Juliet, others), some lived on the island for an apparently long time after the crash (Hurley, Ben, Bernard, Rose) but some lived lives off the island after the crash (Sawyer, Kate, Claire, Miles, Aplert, and Lapidus). Remember that Christian tells Jack that "time has no meaning here," (in Purgatory). When everyone meets at the church, they are at the end of their lives however long that may have been and will now "move on" together. They look like they did on the island because that is the way they best remember each other.

That has to be the clearest explanation of the ending I've ever read.
