Trivia

Midway through shooting, Franchot Tone got into a brawl that left him with facial abrasions on one side so severe they couldn't be covered with make-up. So, in the "glass room" scenes, shots of him are, bizarrely, in profile only or taken from behind barriers obscuring half his face. Some profile shots were reversed to create the illusion that in various takes, we were seeing both sides of him. See more...

Continuity: When Ferris is in the phone booth, he tries to get the operator but then hangs up the phone. He then scans the Town Square. The camera pans counter-clockwise and the receiver is nowhere in sight.

Continuity: When Mr. Bookman is leaving his apartment to get away from Death, there is a note tacked to the door that is about level with his head. In the next shot, he's out in the hallway locking his door and the note has moved up to about 6 inches above his head.

Escape Clause (season 1, episode 6)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Walter crumples the prescription slip and tosses it onto the bed - but in the next shot, it has disappeared.

⇑
⇓

Continuity: When Cadwallader puts a seal on the Escape Clause paper, he presses so hard that he manages to lift the whole document with seal. You can see that there is absolutely nothing except for a seal mark on the paper, yet when he drops the paper to the floor some typed text appears on it. Also in the same scene, the seal pattern is square in the first shot, but when the paper drops to the floor the seal mark is round.

⇓

Revealing: When the main character proclaims, ".the new Walter Bedeker!" you can see the frames are running back and forth. You can tell by looking at the window curtains behind him.

The Lonely (season 1, episode 7)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: Allenby brings Corey a stack of paperback books. He's holding them with the back covers facing out until the shot cuts, and then the stack of books has reversed itself in his hand: the back covers are now facing inward.

Edit Submitted by Jean G Time
⇑
⇓

Factual error: Corey is in solitary confinement on an asteroid. However, asteroids are neither large enough nor stable enough to hold an atmosphere.

Time Enough at Last (season 1, episode 8)

⇑
⇓

Revealing: Right after Bemis's glasses break, he leans down to pick them up. Instead, he first opens the book. When he does that, you can see that the pages are completely blank and that there is absolutely nothing printed on them.

Visible crew/equipment: As Henry is walking down the stairs to the bank vault, the camera's shadow is visible on the side of the staircase.

Perchance to Dream (season 1, episode 9)

⇑
⇓

Revealing: When Hall races toward the window to jump, the stunt man is just a little too apparent as he leaps, primarily due to a very bad wig.

Edit Submitted by Jean G Time
⇑
⇓

Continuity: Hall leaps through the plate glass window. In the interior shot, he breaks the glass and is 3/4 of the way through the opening (up to his knees) - until we cut to a view from outside the window. Then he's just crashing through at shoulder level.

Judgment Night (season 1, episode 10)

⇑
⇓

Revealing: When Lanser goes below deck frantically trying to find people and tell them to leave the ship, when he opens the door at end of the corridor, it's a bit too obvious that the hallway behind that door is nothing more then just a painting.

Edit Submitted by mirtom
⇑
⇓

Revealing: When Lanser drops the cup, you can quite see that he is drinking from an empty cup, since the steward never poured him any and yet he manages to get some of it on his suit.

Edit Submitted by mirtom
⇑
⇓

Factual error: Lanser's cap says that he is Capitan Leutenant of Kriegsmarine. In German Captain is spelled Kapitan.

⇑
⇓

Revealing: After his flashbacks in his hospital room, Forbes looks at himself in the mirror and he cannot see his reflection. But you can still see his arm in mirror.
