Continuity mistake: When the butler tells of Harry Lime's death, at the start of the conversation he can hardly speak English. As the conversation goes on, his English gets better and better, until at the end it's perfect with just an accent.

Suggested correction: He is reluctant to speak English at the start possibly to avoid trouble but later decides otherwise.

The Big Bang Theory (2007)
Continuity mistake: In "The Luminous Fish Effect" (S1E04) Sheldon tells Penny he weighs 140 pounds. In "The Porkchop Indeterminacy" (S1E16), he tells his sister he weighs 165. 25lbs difference would be a noticeable change, but he looks the same.
Suggested correction: Lying to Penny but not to his sister, not inconsistent with the characters and his relationships.

The Big Bang Theory (2007)
Revealing mistake: Most of the time, though not all the time, Leonard has no lenses in his glasses.
Suggested correction: Not obvious at any point in the show.

The Big Bang Theory (2007)
Continuity mistake: In the early episodes, Leonard is depressed and buys cat stuff. He comments that he has taken in to account Sheldon's asthma with a hyper allergenic cat. Later in the series it is Leonard with asthma and Sheldon who gets all the cats.
Suggested correction: Presumably Sheldon also buys non-allergenic cats.
