Season 2 generally

Continuity mistake: In the scene in Panama in the last episode Michael is on the boat and a boy comes along with some sodas. In that scene the sky is overcast. But in the next clip, when the boat is seen further away the sky is clear.

Season 2 generally

Continuity mistake: Episode 14 - John Doe. Bellick is in the prison, and is being threatened by 'Banks.' As Banks and his crew walk away, in two different shots, you can see an elderly gentlemen (looking like Charles Westmoreland) walk across the screen, left to right. He does this twice, without there being time for him to run around.

Season 2 generally

Other mistake: Near the start of the season Lincoln gets a bullet wound to his leg, However there is no exit wound, revealing the bullet is lodged in his leg. Yet he is able to run and move around with relative ease just hours after being shot.

Manhunt - S2-E1

Audio problem: Mahone asks "how long would it take to get that done." The camera changes to the second FBI agent halfway through the question. When it does, his mouth stops moving but his voice is heard. (00:11:15)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: When 5 of the escapees are heading to Oswego to get the supplies and Michael tells Lincoln to turn right, you can see it isn't a real car as the steering wheel doesn't turn - Lincoln just moves his hand along the wheel. Watch the grooves and you will see. (00:18:50)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Mahone is in Scofield's apartment the show flashes back to an overhead view of Scofield planning on the wall while Mahone is tracing over the holes in the wall from where Scofield was tacking papers up. The mistake is in the flooring, the laminate flooring is a much lighter flooring than when Scofield was there two months prior. (00:21:00)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Steadman takes out his gun, he presses it to the back of Veronica's head. She does not flinch or shy away from the gun, but in the next shot, a close-up of Steadman, the gun muzzle is pointed at the camera with Veronica off-screen, and so the gun is suddenly not touching her. (00:22:40)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Bellick is looking over the credit card statement of Schofield, the page changes between him looking at it (full of text) to a few items at the top as it's given back to Patterson. (00:23:30)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Other mistake: There are several spelling mistakes in Schofield's credit card history. For example a "Japamese" restaurant, "Marry's" Food Mart instead of "Mary's". (00:23:40)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Factual error: When the member of Terrance Steadman's security team shoots Veronica Donovan, the wound shown in the front of her head is an exit wound, while the exit wound should have been in the back of her head since she was shot from the front. (00:36:30)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Steadman is watching the agent put the bags that contain the remains of Veronica Donovan into the trunk of the silver car, the license plate changes between shots. The first time we see the car, the plate reads "1029Q", the second time (close-up shot as the agent closes the trunk) it reads "9417X". (00:37:20)

More quotes from Prison Break

Scylla - S4-E1

Trivia: Spoiler. The Scylla alarm on the General's computer is visible on screen for a second or two. Below the flashing word 'alarm', it says it is in section AA-23. That's also the designation of the prison block where Princess Leia is being held in Star Wars.

More trivia for Prison Break

Answer: Roughly as follows. Linc "kills" Steadman in 2001. Michael robs the bank on March 9th 2005 and is sent to Fox River on April 11th. The breakout from Fox River takes place on or around May 25-31. Michael arrives in Sona on June 17th 2005. More details are here: https://prisonbreak.fandom.com/wiki/Prison_Break_timeline.

That wouldn't make sense because the original grave stone in series 4 has Michael's death date as 2005, which is supposed to be at least 3 years after Fox River.
