Mr. Monk Meets His Dad - S5-E9

Continuity mistake: Jack's big rig has a huge Christmas wreath on the front grill. When the truck loses its brakes, there's an overhead view of it careening down the road, and the wreath has disappeared. It's back in the next shot, though. (00:34:30)

Mr. Monk and the Leper - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: Monk uses paper towels to grab the phone, dragging a length of white paper across the kitchen counter and leaving it there. But when he turns around to talk to Natalie, the counter behind him is bare. The paper towel trail has vanished. (00:05:40)

Lee Harvey Oswald (1) - October 5, 1957 - November 22, 1963 - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: In the Japanese bar, when Sam takes a drink from the beer bottle, the label is facing him. When Oswald (who is Sam's reflection in the mirror) takes the same drink, the label has rotated several degrees and is facing outward, away from him. (00:28:15)

Mr. Monk and the Leper - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: In the final scene, the pillows on Natalie's couch keep shifting positions between shots, from straight to crooked and back again. (00:40:30)

Jean G

Continuity mistake: When Thing is using sign language to tell Gomez that Morticia is in danger, there's a blue coffee mug sitting on the table (to Thing's immediate right) that vanishes every time the camera angle reverses. (01:25:00)

The High and the Deadly Affair - S1-E28

Continuity mistake: Merek's bird is sitting on his shoulder facing backward. In the very next shot, as he stands, the bird is suddenly facing forward. When he starts to sit down, the bird is still forward, but in the next shot, a close-up of him sitting, birdie is facing to the rear again. (00:07:50)

Jean G

The Preying Mantis - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: The Black Beauty leaves Britt Reid's garage in full daylight. In the very next shot, as the car pulls out into the street, it's completely dark. (00:03:35)

Jean G

The High and the Deadly Affair - S1-E28

Continuity mistake: The chocolate eclair is cut open to reveal the mini-bomb planted inside. But when April picks the eclair up, it's completely intact again. (00:43:30)

Jean G

Fortune City - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: Mona draws a heart in the dust on the bar and writes "Al + Mona" inside it. When we see a close-up it, however, the L is suddenly much larger than before, and the name "Mona" is written in smaller letters. (00:04:00)

Jean G

To Sing a Song of Murder - S3-E20

Continuity mistake: At the airport, Mundy asks Marilyn what's wrong and places his hands on her shoulders. Then the shot cuts to a reverse angle, and his hands are resting on top of the car door instead. (00:07:50)

Jean G

King of the Hill - S1-E15

Continuity mistake: Kealoha puts his gun back in its shoulder holster before walking a few feet across the parking lot to meet McGarrett. When we cut to a two-shot of them, Kealoha puts his gun away all over again. (00:32:30)

Pray Love Remember, Pray Love Remember - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: Danno walks several feet into McGarrett's office to make a report. Though there's no break in the dialogue and no time for him to have moved, the shot cuts and he's suddenly standing outside the door as they finish their conversation. (00:02:45)

Jean G

The Scorpio Drop - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: Angela's limo picks up Mundy and drives down a tree-lined country road. But in the very next shot, the view out the back window is of a busy city street with nary a tree in sight. (00:13:00)

Jean G

Mr. Monk Is At Your Service - S5-E12

Continuity mistake: Monk finds the magazine from which the butler cut out words for his blackmail note, and matches a scrap with the word "Police" on it to the article it was cut from - only the left and bottom edges of the scrap don't conform at all to the hole cut in the page. They haven't been trimmed more. In fact, the whole piece is much too large to fit into the space. (00:36:30)

Jean G

The Ghost of Nero - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: A large blue vase in Galba's study keeps moving itself into different positions on the table. Several shots later, it's gone altogether. (00:20:00)

Jean G

The Double-O-Nothing Affair - S1-E26

Continuity mistake: Mark injects April with plain water, telling her to play dead. She shouldn't have to play. Water in the blood stream can create oxygen bubbles, which can be lethal in a matter of minutes. He should have used saline or glucose instead. Those solutions have been de-oxygenated and purified to prevent giving patients the potentially lethal "bends." (00:40:00)

Jean G

Visitors From Beyond the Stars - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: The deputy takes one of three rifles from the gun rack, leaving two. In the next shot, however, there's only one gun left in the rack. A few shots later, there are two again. (00:31:20)

Jean G

Visitors From Beyond the Stars - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: In the saloon, the table at the lower right of the shot has nothing on it. After a brief close-up of the bartender, we cut back to the master shot - and even though no one's gone near it, the previously empty table now has a candle in a tin holder sitting on it. (00:28:30)

Jean G

Visitors From Beyond the Stars - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: An escaping Tony leaves the cell door standing open. But when the shot reverses angles, the door has mysteriously closed itself. (00:22:20)

Jean G

Visitors From Beyond the Stars - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: Tony jumps onto a brown horse and gallops into town to warn the sheriff. He doesn't stop on the way, but somehow arrives in town riding a black horse instead. (00:12:45)
