Medium (2005) - 16 mistakes in entire show

Continuity: In Episode 411, "Lady Killen": When Lee Scanlon is in Sensai and the janitor walks him to the kitchen, the doors are push-through doors with no handles on them and with circular windows in them. But when they walk through, the doors are not push-through any more, but have handles on the one side they opened with, and no windows.

Factual error: 1-11: I Married a Mind Reader. A nitpicking mistake, but on the set of "I Married a Mind Reader", the front door is a modern steel design. Back in the 60's, front doors were almost always wood (steel doors weren't available until the 1970's or 80's), and the window design would have been larger on a 1960's fan-window wooden door.

Plot hole: In the episode "Whatever Possessed You?" Colleen's doctor tells the district attorney that her sickness doesn't follow the guidelines of normal schizophrenia in that the normal medicines don't help. This gives Allison and DeValas an opening to investigate what is causing her to be ill. Why would she give them such important information when she is in on the ruse?

Continuity: In "Pain Killer", when Allison is in the shower, she has total use of her right arm, hand, wrist and fingers, where in all scenes before and after she holds her right hand and fingers close to her chest and doesn't move her fingers and hand freely.

Continuity: "Heads Will Roll": When Allison meets P.D. on the sidewalk in the rain, when she gets out of her car, the windshield wipers are still running. When you see her car in the background, they are not running and she never shut them off.

Continuity: In Episode "1-900-LUCKY": When Allison and Michael are sitting at the breakfast table, the orange juice carton arternates between having its cap on and off, depending on the angle of the camera.

Factual error: In the scene where the kidnapper is talking to his brother from prison, the payphone cord is too long for a prison payphone. Prisons use a short cord to prevent inmates from strangling someone.

Revealing: In the first scene of episode 1-15: "Penny for Your Thoughts," the clock shows an impossible configuration. The hour hand is slightly before the five, and the minute hand is between one and two. If it's about seven minutes after the hour, the hour hand should be slightly past one of the other numbers, not slightly before it.

Continuity: While in the park with her boss, Allison's hair keeps moving between behind her back and in front of her shoulders.

Continuity: Maggie says she was born in 1959, but her mother was committed to the asylum in November 1958, when her daughter was eight months old.

Continuity: At the beginning of the scene where Allison and D.A. Devalos are talking right outside his office, the office door is ajar. During the scene it's closed, and by the end, it's ajar again. Neither character touched the door.

Continuity: At the beginning of the episode, Van Gogh starts painting blue circles "on" our TV screen (this is the 3D episode). The three circles are big and touch each other. Next shot, seen from a standard point of view, you see him getting back up and the canvas is still on the floor: the circles are smaller and quite far apart.

Continuity: In the scene where the DA and the deputy mayor are talking outside the DA's office (after she is found sitting in his office with the artist's dad), the deputy mayor closes the door when they exit the office. In the following conversation, the door is ajar.

Revealing: When Allison is "seeing" the Massey house going up in flames, James flinches when the painting falls off the wall behind him, even though it is only supposed to be happening in Allison's vision.

Plot hole: It seems strange why Alison and Cynthia Keener don't raise any suspicion with Wheeler's mother after rescuing her daughter Joanna. After Keener finds her and the other missing girl, she says to Alison that the kidnapper had taken them and had been torturing and abusing them for a number of days. However when Alison and Cynthia go to talk with Wheeler's mother about the old kidnapping case (before the two were rescued) the mother states that she has never been kidnapped and had even saw her yesterday. While the mother might not have been aware of her daughter's kidnapping, wouldn't she have been a little perplexed to have found her daughter had been kidnapped and tortured during days she had seen her. Even if this was something that was not shown, why wouldn't Alison and Cynthia (someone who is well trained in kidnappings) find the mother's statement combined with the kidnapping a bit strange.

Continuity: When Allison wakes up from her dream about the murderer, she runs into the kitchen to write down the car's license place on a notepad: 2TH DOC1. However when she holds it up to show Joe, it's smaller written and not across the notepad as she had originally written it.
