Mistake Continuity: The show uses made-up terms similar to metric system terminology when remarking about measures of distance and time. Roughly speaking, microns tend to refer to seconds, while centons refer to hours. But here, when Count Iblis enters the communications area and the video screens malfunction, Athena comments that everything was fine "a few centons ago", suggesting hours, when it was only seconds ago that the trouble started.

Screen shot Continuity: When Apollo speaks with Adama, close-ups show the left side of Apollo's face is mostly shadowed while the right is well lit. In the wider shots, the left side is very well lit. (Time) Submitted by John W Rosa

Screen shot Continuity: When three Vipers land on a planet, the pilots emerge and discuss how odd everything looks in the strange lighting of this world. The colors of these shots have been altered so that grass and other green plants look red, and the red stripes of the Vipers look a yellowish green. Naturally, this has made the pilots look a bit odd, too. But when the scene changes to an area devoid of living plants, the colors return to normal Earth-like hues- as if this world's sun has suddenly changed its attributes.

Mistake Plot hole: When Boomer and Jolly return from Patrol, Boomer gives a report via video that is watched by Adama and Tigh. He then heads to where the bachelor party is gearing up for Apollo's arrival. He puts his helmet on a shelf, grabs a bottle of ale and a mug, pours the ale into the mug and before taking so much as a sip, becomes dizzy and falls to his knees. This fall is witnessed via video by Tigh, who chastises Boomer for being drunk. How can he think this when he knows Boomer was on patrol and returned only moments ago?
