Audio problem: After the Apaches rescue Blue, Buck signs to their leader and says, "Vaya con Dios to you too, brother." But his lips never move.

Continuity: 4-3 "Only the Bad Come to Sonora": The number of outlaws in the gang mysteriously increases during one chase scene. For most of the episode, there are only three of them. When they gallop off after Manolito, there are suddenly five. Next scene, there are three again.

Audio problem: 4-2 "Spokes": When Buck orders the would-be killers out of the hotel room, his lips don't move in sync with the words he speaks.

Revealing: 4-5 "A Matter of Survival": The doll standing in for Baby Joey is visible in one shot of Victoria carrying the child on horseback. The blanket slips, leaving the doll's stiff neck, plastic head and shock of sticking-straight-up nylon hair all in plain view.

Plot hole: 3-26 "No Trouble at All": Victoria asks her rescuers to take her to Rancho Velasquez. When they ask where it is, she says, "About 30 miles from here." Though she never indicates a direction, they reply, "Sorry, we're not going that way."

Continuity: 3-7 "Trail to Nevermore": When the bad guys arrive in Nevermore, they prejudicially assume that Victoria is Manolito's wife. No one disabuses them of this notion, yet John later tells one of them that he was right about Victoria being his wife.

Continuity: As Victoria tends to him, the blood stains on El Tigre's bandages keep changing positions and patterns between shots.

Continuity: 3-19 "Mi Casa, Su Casa": While he's "dining" with Miguel and the banditos, Don Sebastian's position on the ground changes repeatedly as the camera angles shift. In most shots, he's reclining and leaning on one elbow. But in several others, he's sitting upright.

Continuity: When Manolito wakes her up, Anita instantly changes positions on the bed between takes. She's lying on her side, but in the very next shot, she is suddenly on her back looking up at him.

Revealing: 3-25 "Generation": Due to budget cuts in the 3rd season, an L.A. soundstage replica of the ranch house replaced the outdoor set, which was in Old Tuscon. The replacement was often painfully obvious. In this episode, a stock exterior shot of the real house, with its outside walls undecorated, contrasts with the mock-up, which has mounted cattle horns all over it.

Continuity: 3-12 "Alliance": When Manolito trips and drops all of Victoria's packages in the street, a box that lands beside his head in close-up disappears in the next, wider angle shot.

Visible crew/equipment: 3-11 "The Legacy": While Burnett sits in the hotel room chair talking to Trice, an equipment shadow moves across the top of his head.

Continuity: 3-6, "To Stand For Something More": Much fuss is made throughout this episode about Blue being left in charge of the High Chaparral "for the first time." But it isn't the first time. He was left in charge once before, in the previous season, and no one made a big deal of it in that episode at all.

Continuity: Blue is struck by a rifle stock and has a bleeding wound on his left temple. A few shots later, though, the wound disappears completely. Several scenes later, it's back again.

Continuity: When Father Sanchez contemplates tossing his burden over the cliff, the bundle he holds is neatly wrapped. When the shot cuts, however, the blanket wrapped around the statue is abruptly loose and disarrayed.
