Across whole show
Continuity: This basically happens in nearly every episode. Whenever Michael's mom is smoking, which she does a lot, her cigarette and smoke change size and position with every shot. Although it's hard to keep a cigarette burning the same way with each take, it seems as if no attempt was made at all.
Continuity: Season 1, episode 12 ("Loose Ends"). When Michael is on the phone with the heroin dealer at the docks, he has his phone at his left ear. When the camera moves to a shot from the back, there's no phone near his face (or in the frame for that matter) and his mouth doesn't move while talking. When the shot cuts back, the phone instantly is back at his ear.
Continuity: Season 1, episode 12 ("Loose Ends"). When the heroin importer is questioning Sam, he has his hand around his face, with his fingers touching his ear. When the shot moves to the front, his hand is more on his throat and nowhere near his ear. When we cut to the back, his hand moves again.
Continuity: Season 1, episode 9 "Hard Bargain": When the kidnapper holds Michael at gunpoint on the balcony, his hand holding the gun is shaking. In the next shot, from behind, his hand is perfectly still. The shot then switches back, and his hand is shaking again.
Continuity: Season 1, episode 10 "False Flag": When Michael is talking to Evelyn she picks up her glass and brings it to her mouth. When switching to a different angle her glass is back on the table, and she has her hands on her lap.
Pilot (season 1, episode 1)
Continuity: When Michael is talking to Walter, the art dealer, the latter has his hands folded together. In the next shot he has one hand on his lap and the other on the table.
Continuity: Just after Michael throws his mothers cigarette out of the car, there is a shot from the inside through the front window. There is a large crack in the glass, bottom left of the rear view mirror. When the car is shot from the front, there's no crack.
Old Friends (season 1, episode 3)
Continuity: Near the end of the episode when Mike is threatening the Assassin, by withholding his allergy shot. The needle flips instantly in his hand between shots. Noticeable because of the black tip on one side.
Broken Rules (season 1, episode 7)
Continuity: Michael has to prove himself for his new "boss" Concha Ramirez. He walks across the street to Fiona and starts a mock robbery to get her purse. When he approaches the car, the window is down. Three seconds later he is at the car and the window is up so Michael can break it. Watch as the window frame goes from clean (as if the window were down) to broken pieces of glass on the frame between shots.
Hard Bargain (season 1, episode 9)
Visible crew/equipment: When Michael drives away at the end of the first scene, you can see a boom mic reflected on the car's surface.
Trust Me (season 2, episode 3)
Continuity: When Michael is talking to Barry, Barry's hands change position with each shot. On the table, folded together, holding his glass, etc.
Scatter Point (season 2, episode 5)
Revealing: When Sam pops open the cabinet with the wire he will later cut, you can see that the wire was cut and glued together again. When Sam cuts the wire some time later, it's in perfect condition. The taping was probably done in reverse order.
Bad Blood (season 2, episode 6)
Continuity: When Ricky leaves Michael's apartment he has the envelope with money in his left hand. When the shot changes, we instantly see him walking away empty handed, with the envelope lying on the table.
Revealing: When Victor is opening the padlock, sparks fly around in close ups. In the wide angle shots there are no sparks at all.
Do No Harm (season 2, episode 10)
Revealing: The drawing little Jack made was reproduced on a printer; it has a perfect 1cm white border around the drawing.
End Run (season 3, episode 3)
Audio problem: When Michael is forced to do "errands" for Brennen, they stop by Jonathan Carver's house to get numbers from him for a voice key. The code played back at the facility is 71348. He says "3" in a medium pitch (tone) at the house, but it is high pitched when played back at the facility; he says "8" in a medium pitch, and it's also high pitched later. And finally he says "9" in a low pitch and it's played back medium pitch. Also very obvious is the fact that Jonathan never says "1" or "7."
