Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Magnum pushes the journalist's foot off the accelerator and steps on the brake, he's wearing white worn-out Converse sneakers with light purple socks and she's wearing tan stockings and pumps. Wen they walked up to the car, though, she was wearing open toed shoes with no stockings, and Magnum was wearing brown boat shoes earlier when he arrived at Mr. Dollinger's home. (00:39:00 - 00:46:10)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: After the sugarcane fire fiasco, everyone is nervous. Magnum yells "Stop it!" to Higgins when he makes a bitter comeback to Rick. Kinda hilariously, Magnum yells that at a Higgins wearing a yellow-and-blue tie, but the Higgins that glances at him all sly is a red-and-blue-tied Higgins. (00:26:30)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: After the unexpected death of the champion racer, the protagonists discuss in Rick's office. Higgins is wearing a blue blazer with the navy and beige tie he wore during the announcement and curse. The fire alarm rings, and for the kitchen scene Higgins somehow had time to change his tie to a regimental one with thin red stripes. (00:12:00 - 00:14:20)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Magnum exclaims "But...I didn't win." Before and after that shot, the light on the beach is completely different. (00:47:00)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: When Christine Richards interviews TC and Magnum after the fire, the microphone she has in hand in the close-ups shows a gap in the series of "6" TV logos we see in the rest of the scene. It also shows the factory brand. (00:25:10)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: Magnum duped TC into following him to North Shore. He pulls over by a sexy Hawaiian holding a shopping bag. Far off in the distance, away from the building, there are two guys, one with a yellow tee, the other in olive grin. Next shot and the two guys are there on the porch already, not even giving Magnum time to hop off his car. (00:19:00)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: Magnum is having lunch in Rick's office with a bottle of Coops, every Hawaiian's favourite fake beer. The bottle is facing the camera, but after a few seconds without Magnum drinking from it, it turned the opposite way, the label to the other side. (00:13:50)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: Higgins corrects Rick about the 279 contestants figure. Behind Rick, a guy with a pinstripe azure shirt shows up, but he was behind the interviewer a few seconds earlier. And in the close-up of Larry Manetti, another person with a dark jacket is in his place. (00:05:35)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Magnum manages to show up for the bridge game. He opens the gate and closes it behind himself; he makes the appropriate motion and there's even a wooden clunking noise. Still, in the shot that follows, the gate is wide open. (00:47:35)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: Magnum walks back from his swim and approaches Apollo (or Zeus) holding a pair of flipflops in his mouth. There's another large and smooth shadow to the left of the dog in the first shot, not making an appearance in Magnum's POV. (00:17:45)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: Rick spots Higgins at the club and tells Magnum to hurry up. He is wearing his ring and a bracelet on his right hand. When Higgins leave, it's the same, and you can even see he's wearing a watch with a leather bracelet on his left wrist. But then Magnum leaves too, and in the very last shot of the scene all the aforementioned accessories switch side. (00:29:10)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: Shot from the waist up, Maku is wearing a bracelet on his left wrist and quite a lot of his soaking wet hair trapped under the towel he has across the shoulders. He then makes his way to his camping chair, and he has no bracelet and his hair drier and off the towel. (00:13:35)

7th May 2020

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Continuity mistake: After Kiki says that Maku bodysurfs "whenever he feels old", you can spot in the footage of the man in the ocean that he's wearing fins at his feet. Maku emerges from the ocean cool as a cucumber but with no fins. (00:12:50)
