The Night of the Brain - S2-E21

Other mistake: Throughout this episode Gordon keeps producing orange-sized smoke bombs, but he has no pockets in his clothing large enough for all of them and if he did, the size of the bombs would be obvious in his clothing.

The Night of the Big Blast - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: Halfway between the opening credits and first freeze frame, Gordon and Ms. Lily Fortune are seen entering the private train car in the dark of night, but the shot before their entrance is of the front of the private train car at twilight. That shot of the train car also shows a backwards number 3.

The Night of the Janus - S4-E18

Revealing mistake: About half way through this episode, the hooded man West is chasing goes through double doors and closes them. West slams his body to open the doors. He steps back to ram his body into the doors again to force them open. Before he does, we see the doors sort of slightly move back and forth (this looks very odd and unnatural) before West slams them open.

The Night of Montezuma's Hordes - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: West has a different hairstyle as it is parted down the middle when he is fighting outside the Nugget Saloon. In the inside fight and throughout this episode, there is no part in his hair - with the only exception of this outside fight. (00:13:30)

The Night of the Underground Terror - S3-E19

Factual error: The episode opens in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, circa approximately 1873. We hear a jazz band playing "When The Saints Go Marching In" although the song didn't emerge in a recognizable form until the end of the 19th century. (00:00:19)

The Night of the Underground Terror - S3-E19

Revealing mistake: After West shoots Major Hazard on the water tower, the falling stuntman lands on a safety cushion that is about a half foot below the ground surface. Further, the next scene cut shows Major Hazard being covered by the tower contents, but Hazard is now lying on the ground surface, not below it like the stuntman.

The Night of the Vipers - S3-E18

Revealing mistake: The final gun battle in town has a gunman in a tower shooting at West. The gunman's perch is enclosed on all four sides by a bannister, but when West returns fire, shooting the gunman out of the tower, the bannister in front of the gunman has disappeared, allowing the stuntman a clear path to fall out of it.
