Only show series: Whole show  1  All 

War of the Gods (2) (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Other: When Apollo and Starbuck return via shuttle to the planet where they found Count Iblis, they are followed by Sheba in a Viper. When they leave to bring Apollo's body back to Galactica, all three are on the shuttle, having left a perfectly good Viper behind- a major part of their defenses and one that can't be replaced. No mention is made of the Viper's fate. Submitted by John W Rosa

The Man with Nine Lives (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: Considering Galactica's mission of protecting the entire fleet, she wouldn't risk having recruits brought aboard that haven't been through a security screening already, especially a pair from a known warrior-like race, both of whom are wearing weapons openly. Nor would they be guarded by a crewman who willingly answers classified questions about locations of decorated Warriors posed by total strangers. Yet all of these gross security oversights occur in this one episode. Submitted by John W Rosa

Screen shot Revealing: When one of the Nomen throws his "boles" at a support column, it is obvious in the side shot that the actor never really lets them go, but just turns his hand to block sight of them as his hand drops. The glow can be seen traveling downward, despite the next shot showing the lighted weapon traveling forward. Submitted by John W Rosa

Greetings from Earth (1) (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Factual error: Michael's ship escapes from the landing bay into space - with a crowd of people standing right next to it. No one is at all adversely affected by the launch and the vacuum it should have exposed them to. It barely ruffles their hair. Submitted by Jean G

Greetings from Earth (2) (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Revealing: The "hovercraft" Starbuck arrives in with Hector is bouncing over the terrain, very obviously riding on wheels and not air. Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Revealing: Just before Commandant Leiter is told that all three ships have landed on Paradeen, a shot of the Eastern Alliance ship shows very visible guide wires holding up the model. Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Continuity: When Hector and Vector first arrive, Starbuck and Apollo are standing about a foot apart. Every time the shot cuts to a closer angle, they're shoulder-to-shoulder with no space in between. Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Continuity: When Starbuck and Apollo slide down the roof and hit the soldiers, the soldier that Apollo lands on loses his helmet. When it cuts his helmet is on and he loses it again. Submitted by Mortug

Mistake Continuity: The Commandant of the Alliance destroyer is told the homing beacon on Paradeen is no longer transmitting. Yet in the next scene on Paradeen, Michael asks Vector if the beacon has been destroyed, as ordered, and Vector replies that he forgot to do it. Submitted by John W Rosa

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": In a wide shot Cassiopeia announces it is time for the children to go to bed, and they react with normal hoots of false shock and whining. Then the shot changes to a close-up and the same moment repeats, with the children again seemingly surprised and dismayed by the announcement. Submitted by John W Rosa

Baltar's Escape (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Other: When Adama arrives to interrogate the Commandant, the guard reaches up to a control panel on the wall to open the cell door, but before he touches it, the door begins to slide open. Submitted by John W Rosa

votemap vote up vote down

Screen shot Continuity: When Adama exits the cell, the shot from inside shows the guard's right arm is down at his side. When the shot changes to a view from outside the cell, the guard's arm is raised with his hand working the cell door control. Submitted by John W Rosa

Experiment in Terra (series 1)

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Factual error: Apollo tells Brenda and the General that he's from another galaxy, and Starbuck later repeats this impossible claim. The series writers have again confused galaxies and solar systems. Intergalactic travel would take thousands of years. The rag-tag fleet usually moves at only sublight speed, and it traverses only star systems, not galaxies. Submitted by Jean G

Mistake Continuity: When John turns Starbuck's uniform white, the flight jacket's cuffs suddenly become much larger. Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: The General informs the President that the Eastern Alliance has just launched its missiles. But the General has been sitting there throughout Apollo's speech with no communications device. So he couldn't have known that the missiles had been launched. Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: The President and the General argue on a podium in front of a large gathering of citizens that are seated all around. When the General is told that their enemies have launched an all-out missile attack that will trigger their own automated response, wiping out both sides in the next six minutes, the audience is completely motionless and doesn't appear to react at all. They take the news that they are all going to die remarkably well. Submitted by John W Rosa

Mistake Continuity: When Apollo asks Starbuck "Where's John", Starbuck answers as if he knows who John is, yet Starbuck never asked nor was told John's name. Submitted by John W Rosa

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Plot hole: When Starbuck attempts to liberate Apollo, he captures two guards, saying "Now drop them or I'll incinerate you". They comply and he leads them to a room where Apollo's weapons and equipment are being analyzed. The analyst holds a radio on which we hear Starbuck say "Drop it or I'll incinerate you". First, Starbuck isn't transmitting. Second, he already has the guards disarmed and in custody. Third, the words are not the same as spoken earlier. Fourth, there's no reason such a transmission would have been delayed when sent radio-to-radio. Submitted by John W Rosa

Take the Celestra (series 1)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: At the end, when Apollo leaps over the console to tackle Chakra, the stunt double's face is visible. Submitted by Jean G

votemap vote up vote down

Mistake Continuity: When Aurora and her companion are picking up the guns from the closet, you can see the closet contains two racks with several guns on them. At first they empty the upper rack of guns. When it cuts they empty the lower rack, but then the guns suddenly have reappeared in the upper rack. Submitted by Mortug
