Redux II (3) - S5-E2
Continuity mistake: Although the subtitle states 12:00 AM, Mulder's watch hands mark 02:35. (00:43:16 - 00:43:39)
Other mistake: Mulder pulls in to park in front of a red car. The front plate on both Mulder's and the red car is the same: 5S2 706. (00:27:37)
Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose - S3-E4
Character mistake: Clyde Bruckman says that the Big Bopper won a coin toss that put him on the plane that crashed and killed him along with Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens. The person who actually won the coin toss was Ritchie Valens.
Character mistake: Scully continually addresses the senior police officer as "Captain." But he wears sergeant's stripes. As a law enforcement officer continually dealing with other law enforcement officers, Scully is not likely to make this mistake. More likely a failure to match script with costume.
The Lost Art of Forehead Sweat - S11-E4
Continuity mistake: When the camera shows Reggie Something from behind, he is shaking his head. However, after the cut, his head is static. (00:17:20)
Continuity mistake: The remote control, close to the TV, changes position in between shots near the start. (00:05:03 - 00:05:29)
Continuity mistake: Both the X-ray image and Mulder's statement suggest that the letter opener has penetrated Dr. Sanjay's head at an acute angle. However, during the autopsy, Scully removes the object as if it had been shoved horizontally. The latter position is confirmed by the suicide scene itself at the start of the episode. (00:08:25 - 00:10:10)
Continuity mistake: Soon after Dr. Sanjay falls, the blood flows down his cheek. However, when Mulder examines the scene, Dr. Sanjay's cheek is clean and the blood spot is on his forehead. (00:03:37 - 00:04:10)
Continuity mistake: The pencil on Dr Sanjay's folder is in a different position when the footage is taken from behind him. (00:02:24)
Continuity mistake: When Chuck Burks is analyzing the pottery, we can see that one of the pieces has a broken edge. Seconds later, the image shows the piece of pottery with the border preserved. (00:17:12 - 00:18:17)
Continuity mistake: Near The End of the episode, Mulder is reviewing black-and-white photos of The Jersey Devil. A wedding ring is visible on The Jersey Devil's left hand in the photo. Earlier in the episode, she is not wearing the ring.
Factual error: A number of episodes show trolleybuses operating in American cities that do not use them (including Washington). Vancouver, where the series was filmed, however, does use them.
Via Negativa - S8-E7
Continuity mistake: At The Beginning of the scene, there is only what seems to be a remote control on the left-hand side of the TV. Five seconds later, a couple of VHS tape cases appear where the remote control was before. (00:08:46)
Continuity mistake: Although the subtitle states 08:02 PM at the morgue, the clock in the room shows 08:40. (00:12:40)
Revelations - S3-E11
Continuity mistake: Kevin's mother uses her car to hit the 'devil' and shatters the bottom right of the windscreen. The following shots, including the crash into the ditch, show the car with the windscreen undamaged. (00:28:59 - 00:29:22)
Visible crew/equipment: After talking to the scientist about his car, Mulder and Scully are talking in front of a door. In the glass of the door is a reflection of a third person.

Continuity mistake: When Mulder and Scully are arguing outside the hospital, after meeting Billy and Peggy, there is a woman in a red coat, behind Scully, who gets out of her car and then vanishes between shots. (00:19:30)
