The Kirkoff Case - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: At the drive-in, Rockford in close-up chews into the burger holding it with both hands, but in the previous shot he was using one hand to keep the plate underneath it. In fact, his plate went on the tray outside the car. (00:34:55)

Continuity mistake: Rockford tries the cigarette trick once more but the big guy knocks him down with a punch. He then searches him; his hands are on opposite corners of the wallet in close-up, on different ones in the following shot. (00:38:00)

Beth Davenport: And Jim, try to be nice.
Jim Rockford: Are you kidding? You don't mouth off to anything that big. He looks like 190 pounds of gristle.

The Dark and Bloody Ground - S1-E3

Trivia: The bio on the back of the book (unsure when it was supposed to be printed, let's assume that copy is from that same year) says that the author was born 58 years ago. The man we see dead at the beginning of the episode looks several years younger. The picture used at the back of the book is from actor Guy Williams, who was almost 50 at the time.
