McHale's Navy

PT 73 Where Are You? - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: Halfway through the show, they get caught not having the boat, and McHale gets taken by boat to the commander's office. As he leaves the pier, he drops the rope on the seat next to him, they do a close-up and the rope is behind him about 5 feet away.

HMS 73 - S1-E26

Visible crew/equipment: 2/3rds into the show, in Binghamton's office, Ensign Parker is making believe he is a Royal Navy Admiral and McHale introduces himself. The camera zooms in and the shadow of the equipment goes across Binghamton. He even looks at it but goes on with the scene.

Capt. Binghamton: Commander, how would you and your men like two weeks with nothing to do but play gin rummy, go surfing, have luaus with steel drum bands, dancing girls, hmm?
Lieut. Comdr. Quinton McHale: Two whole weeks? Woo hooo, oh that'd be a wonderful change sir. Yes sir.
Capt. Binghamton: Knock it off McHale. That's what you do every week.
