Eureka (2006)

Phoenix Rising - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Taggart shoots the pile of skin grafts, it explodes, covering him, Jack, and Jo in guts. There's nothing on Tag's shoulder at first, but after a couple of shots, there is now a slab of skin on his right shoulder.

Eureka (2006)

Primal - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: When we first see the army of Starks outside Global Dynamics, it's quite obvious that only one of them is actually the actor that plays Stark; the others are merely people who look similar.

Blank Check (1994)

Continuity mistake: When Quigly is launched into the pool. He is quite obviously going at an angle, but when the shot cuts, he falls completely straight down into the pool.

Blank Check (1994)

Revealing mistake: When Preston crashes into Quigly in the bowling ball to send him into the pool, you can both see and hear the launchpad that actually launches him.

Blank Check (1994)

Other mistake: When Preston puts the VR headset on Beiderman, he reacts in a very strange manner. Yes, it's better for the movie, but it doesn't make sense in-universe, as it would take very little effort to simply lift the headset off to remove it.

Blank Check (1994)

Other mistake: During the park chase, Preston swipes the backpack from the person that picks it up, and is still being chased by Quigly. He somehow manages to put the backpack on in a span of about 7 seconds. Considering he is pedaling for his life, and the fear of the men catching him, it's unreasonable to assume that he could have done such a feat so quickly.

Blank Check (1994)

Continuity mistake: During the park chase, Preston loses the backpack in a wooded area, but it inexplicably winds up in an open area a few minutes later.

Blank Check (1994)

Character mistake: Quigly says that Preston "got away again" when he and Shae escape in the limo, but that was the first time that the trio found him after he got the money.

Blank Check (1994)

Other mistake: When Preston's dad starts to back out of the driveway, he abruptly stops to avoid hitting the moving truck, as if it had just recently appeared there. But they've been there for a while. As soon as he stops, he gets out of the car to start complaining, and the truck driver has already been out of the car for a significant amount of time.

Blank Check (1994)

Plot hole: To buy the house, Preston would have had to sign some papers in-person, and no realtor would let a young child act as an intermediary (for "Mr. Macintosh") for such a legal procedure.

Eureka (2006)

Pilot - S1-E1

Other mistake: When the parents freak out about Brian being missing, the back of the camper is shown, as is the part of the camper that's missing due to the distortion sphere. But it doesn't make sense; there are some parts of of the camper that shouldn't be there, mainly the one piece above the ground, where the sphere scorched the pavement but left the camper's end right above it completely intact.

Charmed (1998)

The Courtship of Wyatt's Father - S6-E16

Other mistake: When the Darklighter shoots Leo in the attic on the Ghost Plane, the arrow goes all the way through him. He wasn't shown to be using anything other than a normal Darklighter Crossbow, and there wasn't any evidence that, since Leo and Piper were still alive, that the physics of the Ghost Plane are any different from the Normal Plane. Yet, in every other instance of someone getting shot with an arrow from a crossbow, it never, ever penetrates the person's body, and always get stuck.

Charmed (1998)

The Courtship of Wyatt's Father - S6-E16

Revealing mistake: Just after Piper and Leo are taken away, Paige orbs down to the ground and runs up to Pheobe, places her hand on her, and shows a blood-covered hand showing that Pheobe's been injured. But before it's shown, while Paige is running up to Pheobe, you can see Paige deliberately keeping her hand closed and facing away from the camera, because it's already there when she orbs down.

Hook (1991)

Continuity mistake: When Peter sneezes Tink into the dollhouse, the angle doesn't make sense, as they were parallel to the house, yet Tink goes flying into it straight, as if they had been perpendicular.

Charmed (1998)

Chris-Crossed - S6-E10

Plot hole: It's shown with the spell that the Halliwells leave for Chris in the attic that if something happens in the past, the future will immediately reflect that change. Chris had changed so much in the past that there should have been at least one thing different that mildly surprised him, even if he was careful to not give too much information to the sisters about the future.

Covert Affairs (2010)

Horse to Water - S2-E14

Factual error: When Annie sends the text message to Auggie, you can hear the sound that is played when a message is sent, but you can see that it still says "Sending..." at the top of the screen, and the sound doesn't play until the progress bar fills up completely.

Smart House (1999)

Factual error: The amount of time it takes PAT to produce things in the kitchen is completely unrealistic. The items show up way before they could realistically arrive on the platform once they are requested.

Suggested correction: I've thought this too as this is certainly impossible of modern technology we have today. However, the theme of the house is it's a house of the future. It's capabilities make it amazing because nobody can understand how it's done. I think it's reasonable to assume that this house has technological advances that will only be available some time in the future; and I wouldn't be shocked if there's a point in the future where technology is so advanced that food can be produced in an instant.

Smart House (1999)

Other mistake: It's reasonable to assume that the house can hide small things like posters and even shelves when projecting images on the walls. When Ben's two friends arrive for the party, one of the walls shows an image and the couch disappears, and that's just way too big of an object to simply phase away, given what we see that the house can do.
