Episode #3.4 - S3-E4

Continuity mistake: Camille tests how hard it is to reach the room keys (answer; it is very easy). In close-up the key to 276 is unperturbed and with the actual key to the right of the rock, but in the wide shot the key is to the opposite side of the stone fob. (00:07:55)

Episode #3.4 - S3-E4

Episode #3.4 - S3-E4

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, when Natasha Thiebert walks away from the table, she walks past the colleague in a loud blue and red shirt (Max). In the close-up when she looks back at the table though, Max passes her by again. (00:00:50)

Episode #3.3 - S3-E3

Continuity mistake: A very disappointed Commissioner Selwyn Patterson walks away from the station' stairs and its resident goats. Dwayne then shows the firearm register's entry, but he does it with his left hand, right hand with a really odd flourish, and left again between shots. (00:35:00)

Episode #3.3 - S3-E3

Continuity mistake: When Goodman and Bordey return to the police station after interviewing the Dragon Lady, the Defender's hood is fully in the sun as the Commissioner greets them, half in the shadow when they parked. (00:34:10)

Episode #3.3 - S3-E3

Continuity mistake: Inspecting the crime scene, Camille is looking through the victim's extensive wardrobe and wonders how he could afford all those designer clothes. Dwayne says "Good question. Come."; Camille has her right hand on the edge of the armoire door, but at the next shot it is her left hand, with the right on the other panel of the sliding door. (00:07:45)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Humph says."was the intended victim all along", a walking extra in a grey hat quickly pops in view, and disappears in the next shot. He appears again walking in the same direction a couple cuts later, when Dwayne hunches over the trunk (which would be far behind the first point we saw him at). (00:45:00)

Sammo

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Humph brags about how he discovered about the affair from a cup of tea; in a wide shot of the whole room he then says "Which is also how I figured out..."; in the background, walking left to right is the same man in cream tank and black bandanna that was already doing the same as an extra earlier in the reveal scene ("It was all a deception, of course") and vanishes in the next shot. (00:43:25 - 00:44:25)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Humphrey asks Camille to "do that thing" he "rather enjoyed last time", Sara Martins has her right arm on the desk in the close-ups but she drops it in her lap in the wider angle. (00:42:45)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Humphrey is doing his Humphrey thing coming up with the solution. He screams "That's it!" In a close-up of the mug on the desk, with a coaster in front of it. But he just pushed the mug aside in the previous shot, close to the chocolate card. (00:42:30)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Dwayne offers to help the 'Chief' to meet new women. There's some banter with the other colleagues, and then Fidel says that "In a weird way that actually makes sense." Dwayne is holding a book in front of his stomach - in the next shot, he has his arms down his sides, so Fidel can poke him in the tummy. (00:21:35)

Sammo

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Camille and Humphrey discuss the 'tea debacle', the yellow cup changes the direction it is facing (look at the handle) several times between shots. The folder of case files she puts on his desk changes direction as well. (00:40:35)

Sammo

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Humph and Camille barge into Carl Collins' bungalow. He almost thinks he got away with the situation when Humph says "Glad we've cleared that up", and removes his hand from the canopy post. But in the next shot he still has his hand there. (00:30:20)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Fidel is talking with Formerly Big Dave, his hat jumps in different positions (in his right hand, under his left arm, in both hands) between cuts. (00:26:30)

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: After they spoke with the grumpy writer, Humphrey tells Camille about the domestic dispute in Lexi's hotel room and they both hop in the car. During this part of the scene, there are several extra leaving the screen either left or right and some are shooting hoops in the background. When we see the two cops drive away, they drive by a few people on the road who are the same extras from before and that were going in separate directions. (00:25:00)

Sammo

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Dwayne and Lexi begin rehearsing her lines, the pen changes position between shots after he gives his Angel Gabriel performance, and when he is standing and expresses appreciation for her delivery there's an obvious incoherence in the movement of his arm, with the hand hovering on the script in one shot and off the way entirely in the next. Besides, he was starting his reading "from the top" but the finger supposedly following the conversation was almost at the end of the page. (00:21:05)

Sammo

Episode #3.2 - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: Humphrey starts picking up his things from the desk to join Camille when the first day is over. She tells him "I thought you'd be rushing home..." He is in the foreground during the line, and we see a glimpse of the documents getting under his arm, but he was already clutching them close in the shot before. (00:16:15)
