The Lone Ranger picture

Crime in Time - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: A watchmaker is riding in a horse-drawn buggy. The close-ups were obviously filmed on a studio set because the same shadows of tree branches pass across his body several times in quick succession.

The Virginian picture

Ride a Cock-Horse to Laramie Cross - S4-E23

Continuity mistake: The dye job on young Clint Howard's hair is inconsistent from scene to scene. It's dark black at the start, but pales to a shade much closer to his natural blond color in many shots later on. His brown make-up (a laughable effort to make a blue-eyed Anglo kid look Hispanic) also varies, and disappears entirely in some of the covered wagon scenes.

Six Strangers at Apache Springs - S2-E7

The Big Valley picture

Caesar's Wife - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When Audra takes lemonade to Will inside the place where he's working as a forger, the pitcher has a liquid which is the true color of lemonade and there's not much left in the pitcher...less than 1/4 of what it could hold. When she comes out of the building, it has the color of iced tea and there's almost half a pitcher of it, which is way more than there should be.

It's not OCD :)

The Protege - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: When Sprague is practicing shooting for the second time, we see that Paladin has put up a new target with no holes in it. Sprague draws his revolver and fires three shots but the cut to the target shows 4 holes in the center. He then proceeds to fire the other 3 shots. (00:10:15)

Walker, Texas Ranger picture

In Harm's Way: Part 2 - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: One of the men attempting to kill Walker holds up his AK pattern rifle after one of his crew members is killed. If you look at the rifle, you can see that the safety is on and as a result, would not fire if he squeezed the trigger. Before and after this shot, the safety is seen in the off position. (00:22:55)
