Leicaman

Other mistake: We often see Trump in a Cadillac limousine (for example, when he meets Ivana in 1976). The model car we see wasn't available until 1990.

Fade in to Murder - S6-E1

Other mistake: We see Fowler (Shatner) take the gun from the board in the Gun Room. Later, he puts the gun back, but in a different place on the board. Anyone in the Prop Department might notice that the gun had been moved.

Leicaman

Other mistake: The simulator pilots are operating the throttles. After the bird strikes, both engines were inoperable, so the throttles wouldn't do anything.

Leicaman

Other mistake: Sammy makes his film "Escape to Nowhere" with a Bolex 16mm camera. (I recognise it because I own one.) When he shows the film, we can see that it is on 8mm film.

Troubled Waters - S4-E4

Other mistake: In the cabin, Mrs. Danziger says he can pick up a pair of golf gloves in Acapulco. Golf gloves are normally sold as singles, not pairs. Very few people wear two golf gloves except in quite cold weather.

Troubled Waters - S4-E4

Other mistake: The captain and the doctor play very fast and loose with medical records privacy, letting Columbo see them and discussing them.

Leicaman

An Exercise in Fatality - S4-E1

Other mistake: It is made clear that the barbell weighs 180 pounds. When we see Janus put it across the neck of Mr. Stafford, he moves it easily, as if it weighs perhaps 30 pounds. Although we know that Janus is very strong, no one could move 180 pounds that easily.

Leicaman

Other mistake: When Dr. F. is introducing the Monster in the theatre, he says, "as incredulous as it seems." "Incredulous" means unable to believe. The word he should have used is "incredible", which means unable to be believed.

Leicaman

Ants on a Log and a Cheating Winker - S7-E4

Other mistake: Sheldon (in the voice-over) says "it really brought what's his name and I closer together." The grammatically correct expression is "brought what's his name and ME closer together", and a stickler like Sheldon would not make that mistake.

Leicaman

Moms and Rats - S6-E3

Other mistake: When Bev boards the train, there is a yellow ramp from the platform to the car. It is never removed, but isn't there when the train begins to move.

Leicaman

The Greenhouse Jungle - S2-E2

Other mistake: When Columbo is examining the crashed Jaguar, we see silvery tape around the opening where the smashed headlight had been. The tape shouldn't be there.

Leicaman

Cleared for Disaster - S9-E4

Other mistake: The voice-over mentions a DC10 almost hitting an Airbus. The plane shown has two engines - a DC10 has 3 engines.

Leicaman

Other mistake: When the plane is cleared to descend from 6000 feet to 2000 feet at pilot's discretion, we see the plane going down into cloud. The nose wheel is already extended.

Leicaman

Dagger of the Mind - S2-E4

Other mistake: Several of the English characters change back and forth between calling Columbo "leftenant" and "lootenant."

Leicaman

Other mistake: Before the shooting, we saw a reflection of the officer in the outside mirror of the limo. The glass is rectangular. The actual mirror of the '73 Cadillac Model 75 had rounded corners.

Leicaman

Étude in Black - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Benedict puts his briefcase in the back of the Jaguar, the hatch does not close properly. It is still not closed properly when he picks up the car from the repair shop.

Leicaman

The Most Dangerous Match - S2-E7

Other mistake: The police photographer takes a picture of the garbage grinder. His camera has a flash, and the photo is indoors, but the flash does not fire.

Leicaman

Episode #8.5 - S8-E5

Other mistake: We are told several times that the "Special Reserve" is kept locked in Mr. Palmer's office. When Anna comes to the bar to "see" it (and put the poison in it), it is in plain sight on the shelf behind the bar, and her husband hands it to her.

Leicaman

Episode #8.2 - S8-E2

Other mistake: Paulie takes off his blood-soaked shirt at the laundry. His undershirt is clean. It should also be covered in blood.

Leicaman

Murder with Too Many Notes - S13-E4

Other mistake: In the movie within the story the murderer repeatedly stabs the victim and pulls back the knife. Even after several stabs there is no blood on the knife. (00:02:25 - 00:05:45)
