Continuity mistake: After dodging the vehicles in the street, Don notices the time as 3 o'clock, when the machine predicted something would happen. When they go back into the diner, his watch has the time as 10:10.

The Rip Van Winkle Caper - S2-E24

Factual error: When they looked at Mr. Herbie's case, they only saw the skeleton. Problem is the clothing was missing, where there should have been some remnants. And the vehicle started with no trouble. After a hundred years, the battery should have been dead, and the engine inoperable.

The Eye of the Beholder - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: In the episode, all the people are shown from the neck down to hide their faces (which at the end we see this is on another planet as they are alien looking). But as the first nurse seen in the episode walks to the window and turns around, even in shadow you can see that she is normal looking, that is, no prosthetic or make-up applied for the alien effect.

The Mirror - S3-E6

Visible crew/equipment: Clemente walks over to the portrait of the former ruler, and throws his glass. Just as he completes the action, the camera looks at the portrait. There is a movement of what appears to be a device on the right side of the shot firing the glass.

A Game of Pool - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: When Fats makes his shot to set up the last ball for Jesse, the cue ball stops on the bumper side of the dot. When Jesse goes to take the shot, the cue ball is closer to the side pocket he's leaning over.

One More Pallbearer - S3-E17

Continuity mistake: After sounding the "alert" for his guests, Raden turns around to fully face them, and as he addresses the Reverend, from the back his hand is gripping the arm of the chair. In the the next moment, there is a frontal shot, and Raden's hands are folded on his lap.

The Fugitive - S3-E25

Other mistake: Old Ben duplicates Jenny so she can accompany him to his home planet. As he can turn into anything, he should be able to approximate her height. When the now twins walk out, the girl on the right is a couple of inches taller than the girl on the left. Not only that, but her hair is noticeably darker.

The Odyssey of Flight 33 - S2-E18

Character mistake: The real speed that was reported was 3,000 knots. At one point, the plane encountered a bright flash, and violent shaking. The Captain surmised that they broke the sound barrier. 3,000 knots equates to over 3,000mph. The sound barrier (Mach 1) is about 767mph, and the captain would know that.

The Arrival - S3-E2

Other mistake: As part of the story line, three men see different tail numbers on the plane. However, the first and third sets of numbers are printed on a big sticker, because the numbers are a different style than the second set. Also, they used two different planes. The second tail number is N67588, which should be on the bottom of the wing, but that number is N107932.
