Common mistakes

Continuity mistake: In episodic television shows, the heroes can be shot, stabbed, have broken bones, etc., but these vicious scars and injuries are never carried forward into the following episodes - the heroes are unscathed.

Continuity mistake: When Dr. Wilbur Wonka is checking Willy's teeth using the dental pick and mirror, the view from inside Willy's mouth shows Dr. Wonka holding the mirror differently in his left hand from the shots of his left hand outside Willy's mouth.

Primal Scream - S1-E13

Other mistake: Considering Jules Kopenic was violently murdered and had his arm ripped off, there was remarkably no blood at the murder scene as Kolchak snaps photos of the crime scene.

Primal Scream - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Mr. Kitzmiller's secretary is about eye level with Kolchak when the camera shot is over Kolchak's left shoulder, but in the shots over the secretary's right shoulder she towers over him.

Primal Scream - S1-E13

Character mistake: The animal control officer tells Kolchak he was crazy shooting off a flash bulb at the gorilla, but the first frontal shot Kolchak took of the gorilla did not flash at all.

Primal Scream - S1-E13

Other mistake: Vincenzo is looking at a photo of the gorilla Kolchak took of it earlier in the episode. It is a side shot, but Kolchak took two pics when he encountered it, one frontal, and the other shot as the creature was running away from Kolchak and the authorities.

The Trevi Collection - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Kolchak notices a car start up and begins driving towards him, he is close to a red and white sign that says, "Warning", but the next shot of him beginning to run from the car shows him now to be about 4 feet away from the sign and the fence it is posted on.
