The Three Stooges Show (1960)
Other mistake: In "Violent Is The Word For Curly" (1938), the Stooges are mistaken for college professors. They are teaching a group of students at the all-girls school Mildew College to sing "Swingin' The Alphabet." During the song, the girls sing "Curly's a dope." The dean had introduced the three men as Professors Feinstein, Frankfurter and VonStupor - so how did the girls know Curly's name?

The Three Stooges Show (1960)
Other mistake: In "An Ache In Every Stake" (1941), when Moe and Larry fall out of their ice wagon and land in the street, it is obvious that stunt doubles were used. When the scene cuts from the doubles to the real Moe and Larry, Moe's legs are in a different position.

Peter Pan & Wendy (2023)
Continuity mistake: A cannonball fired from Captain Hook's ship hits a cliff where Peter Pan, Wendy, John and Michael are watching. The blast hurls the four into the air.

As she runs up the hillside to search for the others, her clothes are dry and her hair is blowing in the breeze. (00:23:20)

The Gene Autry Show (1950)
Other mistake: Pat, riding a wagon pulled by two horses and headed to Rock River, slows to look at a sign. The sign, shown in close-up, says "ROCK RIVER, 5 MI." An arrow points to the right - but that is the direction Pat is coming from. The arrow should be pointing to the left.
1st May 2023
The Gene Autry Show (1950)
Other mistake: Gene enters his ranch house and tells Pat, "I picked up a letter for you at the post office - special delivery." A special delivery letter would have been taken to the addressee upon receipt. It would not be left at the post office.

Melody Mesa - S2-E14
Continuity mistake: The episode opens with a close-up of a poster saying "Elect John Nevers Sheriff" and the shadows of several branches across it. In the long shot, the branches are blowing in the wind. The opening shot is obviously a still photo. (00:00:38)

The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949)

14th Apr 2023
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949)
Other mistake: Just as Ichabod Crane places his coat across a small stream of muddy water so Katrina can cross, Brom Bones rides his horse through the water, creating a large splash.
