Time Tunnel (1966)

Raiders From Outer Space - S1-E29

Revealing mistake: This episode features borrowed scenes from the historical epic "Khartoum." Unfortunately, the movie footage is in uncorrected Cinemascope, making both the Arab and British armies look bizarrely skinny. (00:14:15)

The Green Hornet (1966)

Deadline for Death - S1-E12

Revealing mistake: The Black Beauty, Hornet's car, releases a smoke screen to stop the bad guys' plane from taking off. But you can see in several shots that the stunt car actually releasing the smoke is an entirely different make, model and color. (00:21:30)

The Green Hornet (1966)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: "Eat, Drink and Be Dead": Britt Reid's white Chrysler sits in his garage on a turntable that flips over to reveal the Green Hornet's wheels - a customized black Chrysler. But when the clamps rise from the floor to secure the white car for the flip-over, it's apparent that the car being clamped is already the black one. (00:06:00)

Time Tunnel (1966)

The Low Blue C Affair - S1-E23

Continuity mistake: When Soyill and his henchman start walking toward April, who's standing at the pool table, they're standing right next to each other. When the shot cuts to a wider angle, they're suddenly several feet apart. (00:28:30)

It Takes a Thief (1968)

The Furnace Flats Affair - S1-E22

Continuity mistake: From the inside, the swinging saloon doors are completely intact. From the outside, they're missing several slats. Later, the same doors have breaks that change positions constantly between shots. (00:02:10)

The Furnace Flats Affair - S1-E22

Factual error: April finds that the sign pointing to Furnace Flats has fallen off the signpost. But the board she picks up is perfectly smooth, with no nails or nail holes in it anywhere. It's never been attached to anything. (00:00:50)

It Takes a Thief (1968)

Flowers From Alexander - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Sykes is drinking a beer when Nicholas knocks on the door, and he leaves the beer can on the balcony railing when he crosses to let Nicholas in. When they both walk out onto the balcony a moment later, the beer can has disappeared. (00:43:05)

The Moulin Ruse Affair - S1-E17

Revealing mistake: When April peeks over the rooftop, it's completely dark outside. Every time we see the inserted stock footage of the traffic down below, however, it's a filtered daytime shot. Not one of the cars has its headlights on. (00:11:40)

The Moulin Ruse Affair - S1-E17

Revealing mistake: Waverly opens a file full of papers with a small photo of April's contact clipped inside. When we see a close-up of the photo, we can also see that the page under it is part of a script treatment. Odd thing for a spy agency to keep on file. (00:18:40)
