Angel

Time Bomb - S5-E19

Other mistake: Angel implies that Wesley told him the device will kill Illyria. But this Angel is from earlier in the timeline, as shown when he tries to tell Wes and Spike things they have just told their Angel. So Wes did not tell this Angel that the Mutari generator will kill Illyria. Angel should know nothing about it. (00:36:30)

Blind Date - S1-E21

Character mistake: Angel comments that Vanessa was acquitted because of a hung jury. A hung jury means the jury couldn't come to a unanimous decision; the case would require a new trial, while an acquittal means the jury found her not guilty, and she couldn't be tried again for the crime.

Dad - S3-E10

Continuity mistake: When Lorne covertly warns Angel that the hotel is bugged, he places a note in Angel's pocket with his hand on Angel's shoulder. When Wolfram and Hart watch the video feed later, the hand that was on Angel's shoulder is now in front of Angel's chest. (00:22:50 - 00:37:00)

Five By Five - S1-E18

Plot hole: During the scene where Angel tries to work out where Wesley is being held hostage we learn that the man Faith beat up at the start is still alive in the hospital and that it's his apartment she's staying in. Angel bursts into the apartment to save the day, but that's not possible without an invitation, as the owner is alive, whether or not he's actually there. (00:34:00 - 00:36:40)

Happy Anniversary - S2-E13

Revealing mistake: When Wesley accidentally turns off the power, the room briefly goes dark, then lights up with moonlight/streetlight from outside. In the real world, that light would have been visible the whole time in the background. (00:01:45)

Phoenix

Judgment - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: Just after Angel kills the quan-eyed demon, he exits the room behind the smashed mirror. On the widescreen DVD you see Angel's reflection in the mirror to the right of the smashed mirror (even though vampires don't have a reflection). (00:03:40)

Eternity - S1-E17

Plot hole: When someone broke into Rebeca Lowell's place, Angel storms in to fight whoever it was the broke into her place. Problem is, Angel, being a vampire, has to be invited into someone's place before entering, he shouldn't be able to enter her house. (00:12:10)

Carpe Noctem - S3-E4

Continuity mistake: When the gang rescues Angel and returns him to his normal form towards the end of the episode, Cordelia shocks him unconscious with a taser and he falls to the floor, lying on his front. But when Fred whacks him on the head with her baseball bat, he is suddenly lying on his back.

THGhost

Dad - S3-E10

Plot hole: When Angel is being pursued by the Lilliad demons, he is holding his son Connor and is talking to him in the car. Later on it is revealed that he is in fact holding a teddy bear with a bomb attached to it. If it wasn't his son, why was he talking to it? It couldn't be to fool the Lilliad demons because they wouldn't be able to hear him, as they were in separate vehicles.

THGhost

City Of - S1-E1

Angel: Doyle, I don't want to share my feelings, I don't want to open up. I want to find the guy that killed Tina, and I want to look him in the eye.
Doyle: Then what?
Angel: Then, I'm going to share my feelings.

Trivia: Angel's human name was Liam. "Liam" is an Irish form of "William", so basically, Angel and Spike have the same name.

Epiphany - S2-E16

Question: If Angel didn't experience a "Moment of Perfect Happiness" from his night with Darla, why does he go through the same motions he went through from losing his soul before?

Answer: Due to his epiphany, Angel basically had the 'true darkness' he worked so hard to reattain ripped away from him, like his soul was after sleeping with Buffy.
