Continuity mistake: When the two soldiers get into a brawl in Post-Op, it's daytime. When Potter talks to Mulcahy, it's night. Then Klinger tells Mulcahy he's needed to break up the fight, it's daytime again.

Suggested correction: In scene 1, set in the day, the Greek soldier is wearing a dark blue jacket and a light blue shirt. In scene 2, set at night, Father Mulcahy is wearing a black shirt and a brown robe, and resting before bed. In scene 3, set during the day, Father Mulcahy is wearing a black shirt, a sweatshirt, and a baseball cap. He is punching a speed bag. Klinger says there has been another fight between the Greek and the Turk. The Greek is not wearing a jacket. Scene 3 is from a different day than Scene 1.

Friends (1994)
The One With Phoebe's Husband - S2-E4
Corrected entry: When everyone hears that Chandler has a third nipple, even Ross is surprised. He's known Chandler for many years - and they were college roommates - so Ross would certainly know this fact.
Correction: A third nipple is usually much smaller than the other nipples, several inches away and looks more like a mole. For example, Mark Wahlberg has a third nipple that looks like a mole. It is likely if Ross saw Chandler without a shirt on and saw anything, he assumed it was a mole and Chandler did not tell Ross what it was. Chandler likely mentioned it to Joey.

Friends (1994)
The One with Two Parts: Part 1 - S1-E16
Corrected entry: The colour of Chandler's suit changes from grey to green while he's trying to fire Nina. (00:11:25)
Correction: Chandler's suit changes because he's wearing different ones over multiple days. He attempts to fire Nina, then chickens out, then tries again on another day and fails, then finally musters the courage to do so on a third attempt after his boss confronts him.
No, if you watch the scene you will see that on the second attempt the suit changes colour between camera angles. This is not because it is different days.
I just streamed it again. I don't see that the suit changes color from grey to green, but it does look different when seen from either the front or the back view. However, it looks like this is just from the set lighting. There's a strong light source coming from the left-hand side that makes Chandler's suit look lighter from the back. The front is more shadowed.
Correction: He wears the same suit throughout the scene, but the light hits it differently when he moves around the office.

Friends (1994)
The One with the Dozen Lasagnas - S1-E12
Revealing mistake: After Phoebe tells Rachel that Paolo made a pass at her, we see a shot of the outside of Monica's apartment block and Rachel is throwing Paolo's clothes out of the window. Look closely and you can see the clothes have been very badly superimposed on to the background. (00:17:05)

Suggested correction: The show sent a crew to New York to film the clothes being thrown from the same building that is used in establishing shots. In a wide-screen version of the episode, the clothes can be seen being thrown out a window (although in the episode the clothes are supposedly thrown off a balcony).

Friends (1994)
The One with the East German Laundry Detergent - S1-E5
Corrected entry: When Rachel says, "If you want this cart you're gonna have to take me with it", you can see Ross mouth "with it" behind her. (00:20:30)
Correction: Ross makes a grimace with his mouth before and during the line but is not mouthing lines.

Star Trek (1966)
The Gamesters of Triskelion - S2-E16
Corrected entry: As Shana watches Kirk, Uhura, and Chekhov disappear, when the camera is in a close up on her face, the vertical seam where two wall sections meet is visible.
Correction: It is more likely to be one of the numerous torch poles surrounding the arena.

Burn After Reading (2008)
Corrected entry: When Linda looks in the rear view mirror at the car following her, the license plate is seen as normal, not a mirror image like it should be. (01:25:25)
Correction: The license plate 2DM S29 is backwards in the mirror, but some of the characters when reversed could be mistaken for regular characters.

Burn After Reading (2008)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Linda is talking to a health insurance agent on the phone in her office, Ted can be seen in the background sorting through files. In the very next shot, the camera zooms in on Ted, except now he's facing the opposite direction and has no files in his hands. (00:21:05)
Correction: These are two different people. The first person has a full set of hair. Ted is bald on the front part of his head.
