Longmire (2012)

The Dark Road - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Vic and Walt are driving and Vic is talking about how she could be a stripper. This scene must have been filmed at two different times of the day as the sun is on Walt's side for his scene, and Vic's side for hers. Look at the shadows and sun glare in the shots.

Continuity mistake: After the tree burns up from Uncle Lewis' stogie, he turns around revealing fire on his back. Right as he is turning, the shot cuts to Clark and back to Lewis. In this new shot, Lewis' hair is different (compare the wigs), indicating the person getting the fire on his back put out is a stunt person.
