The Catwoman Goeth (2) (a.k.a. A Stitch in Time) - S2-E34

Visible crew/equipment: While Batman stands outside the run down factory, the GC rookie officer asks, "Who's Robin?" and both GC officers get back into their patrol car. Then as they drive away the reflection of equipment (looks like the boom pole) becomes visible on the vehicle's rear passenger window. Then it cuts to Batman, and the reflection of the boom pole is visible on the Batmobile's windshield, at the bottom right corner of the screen. (00:12:25)

Hi Diddle Riddle (1) - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Robin parks the Batmobile while Batman heads into the disco, Robin raises the radar antenna on the hood to spin and provide a good signal. But in the shot from behind Robin, as he lifts the dash Batscope cover, the radar antenna is still in its original position and hasn't been raised, but the Batscope visuals are working perfectly. It happens again, when Robin watches on the Batscope as Batman begins to collapse from the spiked OJ, the radar antenna hasn't been raised at all. (00:16:50)

Ten Commandments (1956)

Ten Commandments mistake picture

Other mistake: At the very start of the Exodus there are three consecutive shots with the blowing of horns. In the next shot, while the camera faces the ground, there are multiple imprints of modern work boot or sneaker soles visible on the dirt (near the spotted goat), on the left side of the screen. These are not sole imprints of the time period. (02:59:25)

Visible crew/equipment: After their cleaning and ironing in the kitchen Lucy and Martha head up the stairs, then as Lucy says, "Nearly halfway through life, and what have I done," the shadow of the moving boom mic is visible at the top left side of the screen. (00:15:25)

E. Peterbus Unum - S2-E18

Batman (1966)

Show generally

Deliberate mistake: The Batmobile's Bat-turn lever is located at the center upper console, between the driver and passenger seats. Whenever the Bat-turn lever is used while the Dynamic Duo are in the Batmobile, the same closeup always faces the passenger seat and shows Batman's gloved hand pushing the Bat-turn lever, but the problem is Robin vanishes in this closeup - the passenger seat is empty. Episodes S1xE3 "Fine Feathered Finks", S1xE29 "The Bookworm Turns", and S2xE38 "The Joker's Hard Times" are three examples of the Bat-turn lever being used.

The Penguin Declines (3) - S2-E39

Visible crew/equipment: When Venus is at the Batcave, loads of fisticuffs ensue between the Caped Crusaders, Joker, Penguin and all the baddies. While Robin is up on the atomic pile scaffolding he punches one goon off the ladder, then as he falls we can see the edge of the brown crash mat rise up, right before the word "SPLATT!" appears onscreen.

Batman Stands Pat (2) - S1-E14

Visible crew/equipment: When the Dynamic Duo trace Turkey's bowler to Mad Hatter's lair, they proceed to climb the wall.
