Burn Notice (2007)

Hard Bargain - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When the kidnapper holds Michael at gunpoint on the balcony, his hand holding the gun is shaking. In the next shot, from behind, his hand is perfectly still. The shot then switches back, and his hand is shaking again.

Leverage (2008)

The Lost Heir Job - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: In the final scene the camera switches between shots from the front and from the back repeatedly. Parker's arms are folded when shot from the back, and by her sides from the front (and vice versa).

Leverage (2008)

The Ice Man Job - S2-E8

Audio problem: When Hardison is talking to Carrey, just after he names his price ("30%"), there is a shot from a strange angle in which we hear Hardison talk while his mouth doesn't move at all.

Van Nuys - S5-E5

Other mistake: When Andy pulls his piece of meat out of the fondue pot it hasn't been cooked at all. The fondue obviously hasn't been turned on (in the next shot he sticks some meat in his mouth, which has been cooked and is smaller).

Burn Notice mistake picture

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Just after Michael throws his mothers cigarette out of the car, there is a shot from the inside through the front window. There is a large crack in the glass, bottom left of the rear view mirror. When the car is shot from the front, there's no crack. (00:24:30)

Weeds (2005)

Continuity mistake: Somewhere during the car chase scene, one of the rear lights of the delivery van breaks. After that it magically fixes itself in some shots.

Other mistake: When Blart and the SWAT guy are pursuing the bad guy, they have a blue police light on top of the car (the magnetic kind). Interior views of the car show blue flashes on their faces, which is impossible with the light being on the roof. The exterior shots confirm that the inside of the car is completely dark. (01:21:30)

CSI: NY (2004)

Forbidden Fruit - S5-E11

Audio problem: When Sid hands Mac the test tube with the metal splinter, Mac says "Looks metallic". There is a full frontal shot of Mac's face, and his mouth doesn't move.

My Name is Mac Taylor - S5-E8

Plot hole: At the end of the episode, Adam and Stella are checking how many others there are bearing the same name in a government database. "Stella Bonasera" gives one result, being the Bonasera character. A search for "Sid Hammerback" also gives one result, a 90 year old woman (the characters say it has to be his mother). But Sid himself should have shown up too, with the search yielding two results, not just one.

Sex, Lies, And Silicone - S5-E4

Continuity mistake: After Hawkes pats his old friend on the shoulder with the newspaper in front of the hotdog stall, there is a brief shot in which Hawkes is empty handed. In the next shot he's holding the newspaper again.

Shooter (2007)

Revealing mistake: When the police dog wants to attack Swagger and bites the cop instead, it's obvious the cop wears thick protection under his coat sleeve. (01:03:20)

Ocean's Twelve (2004)

Factual error: In the movie the poles which houses are built on are situated in the water; one could swim between the poles. That's totally impossible: the poles are drilled in very wet sand (to be compared to a swamp) and you can't reach them from the canals in any way.
