Riots, Drills and the Devil (1) (series 1, episode 6)

Mistake Factual error: During the last several minutes when the Governor and warden are discussing the current situation and the status of the governor's daughter, a cut away shot is shown stating that it is the Capitol Building Springfield, Illinois. The Capitol building shown is in fact the Capitol of Connecticut, in Hartford CT.

Part 2 (2) (series 1, episode 8)

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In Riots, Drills and the Devil Part 2, when LJ's mom turns off the TV, the camera man's image can be seen in the glass next to the television.

Mistake Continuity: This happens during LJ's fight with his mom and step-dad. When LJ says "You got no clue do you?" you can see Lisa's hands on his shoulders trying to calm him down. When the shot changes, Lisa's hands are on her hips.

The Old Head (series 1, episode 9)

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where LJ comes to visit Lincoln and admits to breaking the coffee table, LJ's hand moves between shots. When Lincoln is shown, you can see LJ sitting in front of him with his chin resting on his hand. When the shot changes to close-ups of LJ, his hand is down and completely out of the shot.

Mistake Continuity: S1E09 - When Abruzzi's lawyer tells Abruzzi he is broke, Abruzzi points at him saying "I told you form the beginning what would happen if he screwed me.". When it cuts Abruzzi's hand is suddenly lowered.

Mistake Continuity: In the episode "The Old Head" when Michael gives the cat back to Westmoreland, from the side, the cats paw is on his shoulder but when the angle changes to the front, it has moved down to his chest.

Sleight of Hand (series 1, episode 11)

Mistake Plot hole: S1E11 - When Scofield comes back after visiting his wife, Fernando announces his arrival. However the problem is, everyone is inside digging the hole. As Fernando walks in along with Scofield, it leaves no one outside watching for guards. The guys are at least smart enough to keep the watch outside instead of all staying inside. If a guard shows up unnoticed, they are screwed.

The Rat (series 1, episode 15)

Mistake Continuity: In Episode 14, "The Rat", when Lincoln and Dr. Tancredi are in his cell together, he says "How it gonna feel when they tighten the belts". He then turns his head so that he is looking the doctor in the eyes, but when the angle changes, he is staring directly in front of himself, and his head is not turned at all.

Bluff (series 1, episode 19)

Mistake Continuity: When Scofield tries to make the guy remember the path, he touches his chin with both of his hands, and there are no tattoos on his left arm.

Flight (series 1, episode 23)

Mistake Revealing: When Pope bursts into the infirmary and sees Westmoreland's body, watch the collar of Westmoreland's jacket. You can see it moving up and down as though he's breathing.

Mistake Revealing: After Pope enters Schofield's cell to see the escape hole, we see him standing outside the cell looking out at everyone throwing toilet tissue etc. If you watch closely right after we see a guy pulling his pillows toward him to tear up, it cuts to another inmate who is throwing stuff out as well. Only thing is, we see the cell door slide to the side slightly which would indicate that the cell doors where not locked. In the event of an escape, lockdown would happen immediately, with all cell doors locked with the prisoners inside their cells.

All of series 2 (series 2)

Mistake Revealing: In the episode where Scofield, Sucre and T-Bag are driving in Panama, the trees in the background have no leaves - like Autumn/Winter in the US. And even though there of course are trees in Panama which shed their leaves, there is no time of year when all trees are leafless - like in the temperate zones. That shot was definitely not filmed in Panama.

Mistake Plot hole: Season 2, Episode 10: T-Bag is linked to the heater when the cops start knocking on the door. He goes down to bite his hand off, and has completed that and gotten away before the cops enter. How long were they knocking on that door?!

Mistake Plot hole: Season 2, Episode 10: While Sara and Michael are running around the factory getting chased by Mahone, Paul Kellerman is seen in Wilcox Arizona. Sara and Michael go to their hotel in Gila New Mexico. Michael takes a bath and Sara leaves. When she steps out of the car Paul is there. How did he cover the 130 miles from Wilcox to Gila in that time?

Mistake Continuity: Season 2, episode 10. While being chased through the warehouse by Agent Mahone, Michael cuts his left arm. In the hotel room, Sarah consequently cleans and bandages his left arm. However, when Michael returns from the bathroom in the next scene, his right arm is bandaged.

Mistake Plot hole: Series 2, Episode 11: Linc arrives to the 'Bolshoi Booze' location at 17:45. It is an 8 hour drive from Trinidad Colorado to that location, which is right on the Texas - New Mexico border. That means that they would have had to have left at 09:45 that morning. But they don't appear to have stayed a night at Linc's father's place - and in none of the other plot lines has it been night. They couldn't have covered that ground in the time span of the plot.

Mistake Continuity: Season 2, Episode 10. When Michael and Sara are driving towards Mahone down Butterfield Road, both cars are seen in one shot and both cars are on a gravel road. In the next clip, seen from Mahone's end of the road, his car is on asphalt.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the episode "Chicago" Sarah tries to kill Kellerman, and when Linc tries to stop Sarah at his right there is a camera in Kellerman's face.

Mistake Factual error: Michael and Lincoln are seen in the morning at 9 am in Montana (between Great Falls and Helena). Later in the show, the next day at 12.50 am, they are trying to meet with Sarah in Akron Ohio. That is 33 hours drive from Helena.

Mistake Continuity: Series 2 - Episode 10. When Sara is to meet Michael at 1681 Butterfield Road Sara looks in the mailbox. She closes the lid, yet the mailbox is seen standing with the lid a bit open. In the next couple of shots the mailbox is completely open, and when they jump in the car and leave, the lid is now closed.
