Batman (1966)

Fine Feathered Finks (1) - S1-E3

Other mistake: If the camera in the Penguin's cell is hidden and stationary, then the video taken from the cell should all be from the same angle, but not only does much of it move along with the Penguin as he paces, it also is much closer and at a lower angle. It only reverts back to being hidden when he notices it.

Guilty as Dick - S2-E15

Other mistake: When Dick is up in the tree fort, the aliens are looking at him through their hand binoculars, but the image is taken from the same height as Dick. However, since he is higher than they are, they would be seeing him at an angle. The view as seen would be impossible unless they were at the same height as he was.

Suggested correction: What the camera shows is for the audience. It's not meant to be a POV shot of what the three are seeing.

Bishop73

Other mistake: Near the end when showing Gladys in the paper, the article surrounding her photo is the same 2 paragraphs repeated over and over again.

Home Improvement (1991)

To Build Or Not To Build - S2-E23

Other mistake: When Randy and Brad complete the magic trick and open up the trunk they are pointing it towards the audience for us to see. But Jill reacts as if she is seeing it too, which, based on where she is sitting and where the trunk is open would be impossible. She would have had to get up and go look or have the trunk turned 90° to make it work. Neither happens.

Other mistake: When Mrs Slocombe is having her passport picture taken the images taken are not directly in front of them where the actual photo camera is, rather they are taken from the camera filming off to the side.

Home Improvement (1991)

Future Shock - S6-E2

Other mistake: Al's tricycle catches on fire but when the fire is put out the tricycle is much more scorched and mangled in a way that would have been impossible with the short time the fire was lit and the area it actually burned.

Nobody Nose Libby Like Sabrina Nose Libby - S3-E9

Other mistake: After Salem and Sabrina are shrunk down into the toy plane you see the kitchen from inside the cockpit, but when they are shrunk down to be tiny enough to go into Libby's nose, the view from inside the cockpit is the same as it was before they were shrunk down even further. Since they are that much smaller everything should be seen as much bigger.

Corner Gas (2004)

Buzz Driver - S5-E7

Other mistake: There is no need for there to be two lists of those who should and shouldn't drive the bus, only a list of those qualified to drive the bus.

Family Affair - S2-E7

Other mistake: A major plot point is Blanche having hurt her back in her gym class, and it is established that she is having a hard time moving. Indeed when Dorothy rushes to find Rose after hearing her scream, Blanche gets up to follow her but due to her injury she moves quite slowly. However, when Dorothy reaches the door, Blanche is right behind her, even though Dorothy did not help her and Blanche cannot move as fast as Dorothy.

Ellen (1994)

Show generally

Other mistake: The establishing shots of Buy The Book make it clear that there is an optometrist next to Buy The Book, but in the season three episode premiere Shake Rattle and Rubble, a major plot point is that there is a dry cleaners next to the store, which is not only wrong but impossible.
