Continuity mistake: The detectives are at the concierge to check Michael's alibi. From behind, Brooke Burns is leaning against the desk with an outstretched arm, while in other angles she's leaning with her elbow. (00:53:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In the second part of Maggie's conversation with Castellano (after she shoos Henry with menacing gestures), his hand is on the glass' stem, then it is not in the reverse shot, and so on, back and forth. Maggie's hand also changes position, moving to and fro the rim of the glass. (00:30:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Maggie is at the bar with Castellano, prompting the jealousy of Henry. At the beginning of the scene, when she says "I'm serious" her hand moves on top of the glass all of a sudden just for that one close-up and the next shots with that particular camera angle. (00:30:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After the encounter with the manager who was - (not) carrying a corpse, the dynamic duo gets back in front of the hotel room. The keycard goes from Maggie's right, to the left, to the right between shots. (00:28:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Maggie leads Henry away from the manager and the wasted actress on the bench. She puts her hand on his right arm, which turns into the left at the cut. (00:28:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After checking the viral video out, the gourmet detective walks towards the window. In close-up he puts his hand on a wooden part of the frame, under other angles he's touching the glass panel. (00:26:40)

Sammo

Other mistake: Maggie and the chef sleuth are watching the viral video. The article mentions that a four minutes outburst has been caught on camera, but the video lasts only 30 seconds, contains the full transcript and ends, no cuts, with her that grabs the camera. There's no room for other 3 minute and a half of footage. (00:26:00)

Sammo

Audio problem: Two quotes from Beth are mixed up. When you grab a mission item with her, she says "This one can be ours! Let's keep our heads.", but her voice says just a different line; "I located one." By contrast, when the mission is completed, she says "This one's ours!" but adds in voice only "Let's keep our heads."

All Roads Lead to Floyd - S1-E13

Revealing mistake: During the credits, look at the car when Andy Romano's name pops in view; the antenna and the steering wheel are on the right of the vehicle. In the rest of the episode, they are on the correct side (the left). (00:01:40)

All Roads Lead to Floyd - S1-E13

Factual error: When Floyd is standing by the Cadillac with the vanity FLOWER license plate, on the same plate you can see in the upper right corner that its registration sticker on the license plate is a 76 one. For being a fancy car by a posh golf course, it's quite odd to be 5 years in arrears of the tax - it is, viceversa, a mistake that happens in other car props during the season. (00:04:15)

All Roads Lead to Floyd - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Bull is paying the outstanding bills from Floyd to the previous employer; as he rolls out of the banknotes, in the background one of the clients is a blonde young fella with a plaid jacket and white pants that was already a recurring extra in the airport scene from earlier. (00:10:50 - 00:20:05)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

All Roads Lead to Floyd - S1-E13

Revealing mistake: The sequence with Floyd making a couple calls at the payphone presents a rather unusual mistake. Noah Beery Jr. looks away before he's done dialing the phone number...and he misses. His finger pushes on the chrome of the keypad missing the actual "1" key, but the scene just goes on and he dialed the right number anyway. (00:09:55)

Continuity mistake: After straightening out of the young bartender, Bull walks to the tour guide table. He sits down in two shots, and across shots the cigar suddenly jumps from one corner of the mouth to the other. (00:17:45)

Continuity mistake: When Floyd sabotages the alarm, he links two points of the circuit with a cable. The second pin attaches horizontally almost. Few minutes later Magnum passes in front of the box and finds it in a different position, perfect to be yanked off. (00:39:30 - 00:44:35)

Continuity mistake: Mizamura and his men stand from the table; a waitress is passing by. Magnum calmly asks "And, if he doesn't?" In the following shot, the same waitress shows up again from the same direction, with the drinks on the tray in a slightly different position. (00:34:15)
