Other mistake: When the frog jumps on the pizza (during Greg and Rachel's date), the gooey cheese mess resembles more superimposed tacky glue than actual melted cheese.

The Brady Bunch (1969)
5th Apr 2024
Private Resort (1985)
Audio problem: When the husband (Hector Elizondo) is seated in the barber chair, he's heard talking to the kid, but his lips aren't moving. An obvious audio sync issue.

New Jack City (1991)
Continuity mistake: Near the beginning, when the Jamaican hustler on the street is 'informed' that his services are no longer needed, the girl sticks the gun to the side of his head, and blood spurts out from his head right as the shot is fired, instead of after.

Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (1993)
Where the Heart Is (1) - S2-E6
Factual error: During the arrival at Beacon Hill, Colleen tells the girls during tea that the streets in Colorado Springs are all dirt, not the cobblestones as corrected by one of the girls (when Colleen referred to the Boston streets as rocks). When, in fact, several road scenes around Boston in several scenes are dirt or dried mud.

The Waltons (1972)
Continuity mistake: When Verdi is sitting on Josh's bed, talking to him about being a man, the medium shot has her face tilted to the left. But in the immediately close-up, it's suddenly to the right as she finishes her comment.

I Love Lucy (1951)
Continuity mistake: At times Ricky wears his gold wedding band, and other times - especially at the Tropicana - it is missing from his finger.
Suggested correction: So he took it off while performing. I googled images of Desi and Lucy and you can see he wore a wedding band in real life. Therefore, taking it off while filming would have been a deliberate choice. It's only a mistake if the band appears and disappears within a scene.

I Love Lucy (1951)
The Benefit - S1-E13
Revealing mistake: There's suddenly an upright piano in the living room where Ricky's desk used to be.
Suggested correction: There's nothing sudden about it. From the start of this episode, the card table is at the center of the living room, with the couch pushed back toward the wall, and the desk is behind the couch (holding telephone, etc), up against the wall where the piano usually is in other episodes. Ethel asks Ricky about the sheet music on the piano, and he explains he's been working on a musical number for the show at the Tropicana. So, for this episode's ongoing musical storyline, the positions of the piano and desk have been switched. This occurs again a few episodes later in Breaking the Lease. The rearranging of furniture between episodes occurs often, and would only be a problem if it happens within a scene.

I Love Lucy (1951)
The Adagio - S1-E12
Character mistake: Lucy turns in for the night in full makeup and lipstick, instead of washing up.

I Love Lucy (1951)
The Adagio - S1-E12
Visible crew/equipment: Crew member shadow is visible at the foot of Ricky's bed near the end.

Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. (2023)
Continuity mistake: The phone in the foyer of the Simon house is a dial pad, but changes to a rotary more than halfway through.
6th Mar 2024
Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (1993)
Other mistake: Toward the end, when Mike is snuggling at the window with Sully, the candle on the wall near them isn't lit. But there is ominous light about them, obviously from the studio set.
15th Feb 2024
Family Affair (1966)
Visible crew/equipment: Shadow of the boom swings when Cissy, Kathy, and the kids enter the bedroom.
15th Feb 2024
The Waltons (1972)
Visible crew/equipment: Camera lights are visible in the reflection of Maude's glasses in several scenes.
11th Feb 2024
Flashdance (1983)
Other mistake: The place where Alex drops the needle onto the record is almost immediate, but there is a pause as she steps out onto the dance floor, when the music should have started.
5th Feb 2024
The Waltons (1972)
The Seashore - S6-E5
Continuity mistake: Maryellen's pregnancy changes during the episode from her natural woman figure to a slight baby bump to a 9-month belly near the end.
8th Jan 2024
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (2000)
Revealing mistake: The mom on Doc's table quite breathes, and her bottom lip moves slightly during the autopsy.
6th Jan 2024
Family Affair (1966)
Family in Paradise: Part 1 - S4-E25
Character mistake: The hunky male tour guide compliments Cissy on her brown hair when she's an obvious redhead.

The Waltons (1972)
The Inferno - S5-E20
Audio problem: When the Hindenburg explodes, audible screaming and panic of ladies' voices are heard in the foreground, but no crowd is present on the airfield except for the Naval aircraft workers.
20th Dec 2023
The Waltons (1972)
The Inferno - S5-E20
Audio problem: While Johnboy and the press guy park, the Hindenburg is hovering over the aircraft field, while audible voices cheer alongside clapping and shouts. Yet, there is no visible crowd, but a small scattering of Naval comrades on the field. (00:17:23)
3rd Dec 2023
The Waltons (1972)
Continuity mistake: Elizabeth's hair length doesn't match while on The Ferris Wheel. The shot from the ground is very long hair 'draped' over the back of the seat. Yet, in the following close shot of her, it is from the chest up, so only the very bottom strands would be visible over the edge.
