Visible crew/equipment: What's that strange object following over Mark and April's heads as they leave the airport? Looks suspiciously like a boom microphone. (00:02:00)

The Magician (1973)
The Illusion of the Deadly Conglomerate - S1-E18
Continuity mistake: Blake tosses the trick card, and it lands on the lower right side of the target. When Dominick walks over to pull the card free, it has moved itself to the upper left portion of the target. (00:29:20)
11th Jan 2007
The Magician (1973)
The Illusion of the Lost Dragon - S1-E17
Continuity mistake: Poor Hahn is caught in a diabolical trap: the floor disappears and he's left dangling over a fire pit. In long shots, he's holding onto the ornate door handles with his face pressed against the door. In closer shots, though, he's hanging several feet away from the door, holding onto something (not the door handles anymore) that we can't see. (00:03:00)
11th Jan 2007
The Magician (1973)
The Illusion of the Lethal Playthings - S1-E20
Character mistake: A toy company would surely know better: the sign outside the toy factory misspells "Pinocchio" with only one C instead of two. (00:25:20)
11th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Little John Doe Affair - S1-E13
Continuity mistake: Highly-trained secret agents are supposed to know their own IDs. When April reports to HQ over her communicator, she identifies herself as "April Dancer, Section One." She works, as do all the U.N.C.L.E. field agents, for Section Two. (00:29:00)

The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Jewels of Topango Affair - S1-E14
Continuity mistake: In the air, the small plane Mark flies is all white. Once on the ground, it mysteriously turns blue. (00:05:15)
10th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Jewels of Topango Affair - S1-E14
Factual error: Mark plays his electric guitar for the tribal chief, and the amplifier works just fine, despite the fact that it isn't plugged into any power source. (00:17:00)
10th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Jewels of Topango Affair - S1-E14
Factual error: Hiking through the African jungle, the safari party is stalked by a tiger. Wild tigers aren't found on the African continent. They're native to Asia. (00:31:30)
10th Jan 2007
The Magician (1973)
The Illusion of the Lethal Playthings - S1-E20
Revealing mistake: The "remote control" model plane lands and sneaks through some bushes to spy on Blake. You can see the filament line pulling it. And the picture it sends the bad guys with its mini-camera not only zooms in (unlikely technology in 1973), it also delivers an unobstructed view when the plane is sitting in foliage that should block part of the shot. (00:21:50)
10th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Little John Doe Affair - S1-E13
Continuity mistake: When the Italian U.N.C.L.E. official parks his red sports car outside the jail and gets out, he leaves the door ajar. When he comes back with April, the door has closed itself. (00:38:15)

It Takes a Thief (1968)
6th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Lethal Eagle Affair - S1-E11
Revealing mistake: While Madame Gita is testing the death ray device, she orders Franz to go check the power. He trots off to obey, and in the process crosses, miraculously unscathed, directly in front of the "deadly" light beam. (00:42:15)
6th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Lethal Eagle Affair - S1-E11
Continuity mistake: April is undercover in Madame Gita's mansion, and has been speaking with her normal (American) inflection throughout most of the episode. Midway through, however, she suddenly acquires a German accent for no apparent reason. (00:35:15)
6th Jan 2007
It Takes a Thief (1968)
Plot hole: While Mundy is trying to disarm the briefcase bomb in the study, his time-sensitive work is interrupted no less than 6 times by people barging in from the party out front. The plot device adds comic relief, but there's no earthly reason why he couldn't have locked or barricaded the door in the first place. (00:36:00)
6th Jan 2007
The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. (1966)
The Lethal Eagle Affair - S1-E11
Revealing mistake: Mark hides inside the grand piano - improbable (there's not enough room) unless the piano is a mock-up without any real harp or strings. And in fact, when he jumps out, you can see that there's nothing inside. Somehow, though, the piano still makes sounds when Dieter touches the keys. (00:27:00)
2nd Jan 2007
The Magician (1973)
Deliberate mistake: The main character is called Anthony Dorian in the pilot. But without explanation, his name becomes Anthony Blake in the first regular episode. (00:05:15)
2nd Jan 2007
The Magician (1973)
The Illusion of the Stainless Steel Lady - S1-E14
Revealing mistake: Blake discovers that the wheelchair-bound figure of Irene is actually a dummy with a remarkably lifelike mask. But when he reaches to pull the mask off, the "dummy" blinks. (00:35:00)
2nd Jan 2007
It Takes a Thief (1968)
The Family - S2-E23
Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, Mundy is tapping into a line by climbing a phone pole. He's starting back down when the shot cuts to a wider angle - at which point he's back at the top and starts down the pole all over again. (00:00:55)
2nd Jan 2007
It Takes a Thief (1968)
The Baranoff Timetable - S2-E21
Continuity mistake: Ortega takes Mundy's shoes (with lock picks hidden in the heels) and locks him up. Mundy soon has the confiscated shoes back on again, though, even before he escapes the cell. (00:40:00)
1st Jan 2007
The Magician (1973)
The Man Who Lost Himself - S1-E9
Continuity mistake: Blake grabs the money and escapes by crashing through a window. When the bad guys give chase and climb out the same window moments later, the broken glass and framework on the ground is in a completely different pattern than it was when Blake left the scene just a few shots before. (00:42:00)
