Visible crew/equipment: The mysterious person who was chasing Rockford apparently loses him in the parking lot. As he drives away, on the sidewalk there's filming equipment by the entrance of the lot, and it cuts to an angle that is exactly what they were filming. (00:06:50)

The Countess - S1-E4
Revealing mistake: When the car falls off a cliff at the end, it's an entirely different looking model with different headlights (square vs round), and empty (at least nobody in the passenger seat for sure). (00:46:30)

Tall Woman in Red Wagon - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Rockford is eating with Sandra, extras appear with wild inconsistencies - for instance, the woman at the table behind her, is one of the extras walking behind Rockford in a reverse shot. (00:05:30)

Backlash of the Hunter - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: Rockford goes to police to ask Dennis Becker about the case. He leans against the wall as they chat, but his left hand is blatantly at different height in the two different angles that alternate. (00:24:30)

The Countess - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Rockford pours liquor to The Countess in a plastic cup; whoever is doing that in close-up is not wearing a wristwatch, James Garner in the rest of the scene does. (00:07:30)

Continuity mistake: Rockford knocks out of the bad guy with a shovel in the gut. He drops the shovel in the bunker, and the tool a couple seconds later is lying down in a different place without him touching it. (00:45:00)

Revealing mistake: During the car chase in the golf course, Rockford gets ahead of Muzzy Vinette and has to turn the car to block his path. You can see in the grass, in that precise spot, different marks from previous takes of the scene. Obviously not a maneuver golf carts perform, and right there. (00:43:40)
