Don't Open Till Doomsday - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: Harvey peeks into the small hole in the box using his right eye. On the first view from inside the box, a right eye is indeed looking in. But when the monster appears, a left eye is peering through the hole. The shot cuts immediately back to Harvey, who still has his right eye pressed to the opening. (00:06:10)

Controlled Experiment - S1-E16
Continuity mistake: When Phobos sets up the time converter, the grid on his large round scope has a diamond-shaped pattern. But when we see it from his point of view, the grid comprises perfect squares instead, and contains numbers that weren't there before. (00:15:00)

Money for Nothing (1) - S1-E22
Continuity mistake: In Darien's apartment, the wall clock, which is running, reads 8:20. But his watch, which is also running, says it's 5:55. (00:21:45)
12th Apr 2007
Continuity mistake: 12-17 "A Bird in Hand": We see Angie take photos of mobster Del Vecchi with a 35mm camera. But later on, she develops the same photos and says she took them with a 110 camera hidden in her purse. She's a professional photographer and would certainly know the difference between 35mm and 110 film.
12th Apr 2007
Continuity mistake: 9-4 "Man on Fire": McGarrett's blackboard already lists plutonium as the poison source before Dr. Ormsbee enters to inform him that plutonium was the poison source.
12th Apr 2007
Plot hole: 8-22 "Love Thy Neighbor, Take His Wife": McGarrett has two unexplained clairvoyant moments in this episode. First, he divines that the Indian-style headband is turquoise without seeing it. Then, after the kidnappers' phone call proves untraceable, he somehow knows that it was made from a specific pay phone.
12th Apr 2007
Plot hole: 8-22 "Love Thy Neighbor, Take His Wife": The police cars speed to Tanaka's house with their sirens screaming, warning him in plenty of time to allow him to escape. Apparently these guys never heard of the law-enforcement standard "silent approach."
12th Apr 2007
Visible crew/equipment: 8-16 "Legacy of Terror": As an HPD cop escorts the old man out of McGarrett's office, he trips over a camera cable and nearly falls. When the actor recovers his footing and finishes his exit, the cast regulars simply pretend it never happened and go on with the scene.
8th Apr 2007
Continuity mistake: A visible Darien leaves the sleep clinic in a downpour, getting soaked in the process. But when he climbs into the van to report to Hobbes, he's completely dry. (00:17:00)
8th Apr 2007
Not That Much Different - S1-E23
Factual error: In the final shootout scene at the end, Manning's .38 caliber 6-shooter pistol fires 8 successive shots at McGarrett without being reloaded. (00:45:00)
8th Apr 2007
Continuity mistake: 8-13 "A Touch of Guilt": The assault is said to have occurred at the Zanza Bar. But when we see the location, the bar is called The Makai Lagoon Club instead.
7th Apr 2007
Factual error: 8-12 "Honor is an Unmarked Grave": Marshall has been in Hawaii for only 3 weeks, yet he has his cat, which he brought along, living with him. Hawaii requires a 4-month quarantine on all pets brought in from the mainland. Marshall's kitty should still be in lock-up.
7th Apr 2007
Continuity mistake: 8-9 "Retire in Sunny Hawaii - Forever": When Danno leaves his car, he's wearing a brown suit, but he enters Ellen's office wearing a black one.
7th Apr 2007
Revealing mistake: 8-5 "Death's Name is Sam": The plane hit by the missile is a little too obviously a still photo with the explosion superimposed over it.
7th Apr 2007
Deliberate mistake: 8-4 "Target? The Lady": During the car chase, a crowd of real-life tourists is standing on the sidewalk, very obviously ogling the film crew as they shoot the scene. The footage was left in to avoid an expensive retake of the stunt chase.
7th Apr 2007
Factual error: Talking to Dresden, Bob refers to his first grimoire (a book of spells & magic). But the closed captioner, apparently unfamiliar with the term, has rendered the line, "My first Renoir," which, though amusing, makes no sense at all in the context of the conversation. (Refers to the aired version: the error was corrected on the DVD release.) (00:24:00)

2nd Apr 2007
Audio problem: In the film left behind by the killers, the two men in the picture can be heard talking - but their lips aren't moving.
2nd Apr 2007
Follow the White Brick Road - S4-E23
Visible crew/equipment: Aboard the smaller boat that comes out to pick up McGarrett from the tug, you can plainly see a cameraman shouldering his camera and standing up to film the tug boat.
2nd Apr 2007
...And I Want Some Candy and a Gun That Shoots - S4-E6
Continuity mistake: Danno boards the helicopter wearing a brown suit, but arrives wearing a Hawaiian shirt. When he gets out of the aircraft a few shots later, though, he's back in the brown suit, with no time to have changed.
