Centennial Charmed - S5-E12

Continuity mistake: When Paige follows Phoebe into the kitchen and is trying to convince her that she is telling the truth, Phoebe's right earring is missing in the shots showing both women, but it is there when the shot changes to close ups of Phoebe. It is an awfully large earring to be hidden by her hair in the two-shot. (00:25:20)

Centennial Charmed - S5-E12

Continuity mistake: Paige's headstone reports her year of birth as 1975. But in episode 4-2: "Charmed Again, Part Two," Paige spoke with the nun to whom she was given as an infant on August 2, 1977, and Paige is always described as having been "given up at birth" by Patty and Sam. (00:27:15)

Centennial Charmed - S5-E12

Plot hole: In 'Centennial Charmed' Paige orbs to another reality where she loses all her powers. Leo tells her the this is because she was never called as a witch in this world, but Paige had most of her powers before she was called because of her whitelighter blood, so she should retain these. Leo says that Paige has assumed the life of this reality's Paige, but then adds "...or at least the life she would have lived if she hadn't been killed". If alternate Paige had lived she would have had Whitelighter powers, even if she didn't know about them, so our Paige should also have them. (00:28:00)

Shay

House Call - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: When Leo finds Piper on the ladder removing the "filthy" wood shingles he's wearing a crew-neck grey and blue pullover, but when Piper climbs off the ladder and Leo tells her she needs to snap out of it Leo is wearing something beige with a collar, then it's back to the crew-neck pullover. (00:31:00)

Super Grover

House Call - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: Leo orbed from the Manor to Hell while it was full daylight. He orbed Jessica straight to the church, there was a brief scene, and then Leo and Paige orbed directly back to the Manor, but by the time they arrived it was completely dark. (00:31:45 - 00:33:45)

Sand Francisco Dreamin' - S5-E14

Visible crew/equipment: After Phoebe returns with a bowl of dream dust from the remains of the Sandman, Phoebe opens and closes the door to the conservatory to view their three dream guests, then as they all turn and walk toward the sofa we can see the reflection of the moving boom pole and mic in the mirror. Also, note the door that Phoebe had closed is now wide open in Leo's closeups. (00:32:15)

Super Grover

The Day The Magic Died - S5-E15

Continuity mistake: In the beginning, Paige is wearing a shirt with the scrunching sleeve on the right and slanting on the left. In following scenes, the scrunching sleeve is on the left and slanting on the right. (00:07:40)

The Day The Magic Died - S5-E15

Visible crew/equipment: While Paige and Phoebe are in the basement getting some magic from the unicorn horn, Phoebe figures out it was the Elders who sent the unicorn, and just as Paige comments that the unicorn's magic is not affected by what happens on Earth, you can see the animal handler's hand under the animal's muzzle. (00:37:35)

Super Grover

The Day The Magic Died - S5-E15

Plot hole: In the episode "The Day Magic Died," Phoebe and Paige first find out that magic is down when Paige tries to orb the unicorn. But, when she tries to orb it, she makes a scrunched up face that would suggest that she knew magic was out and she hoped that she could orb.

Baby's First Demon - S5-E16

Visible crew/equipment: While Elise is telling everyone about Bay Mirror's new owner, Jason Dean, just as she warns them that he's known for shaking up companies, we can see the white T-mark and a bit of the yellow tape mark on the crew's black mat (which is gone in following shots) at the lower left of the screen. (00:09:15)

Super Grover

Baby's First Demon - S5-E16

Continuity mistake: Right after the Hawker demon attacks, Piper picks the baby up and the head of the doll is covered and you can't see the face; a quick change in camera angles shows the baby's face and the blankets are all arranged and folded to frame the baby and no time has elapsed to allow this to happen. Also, the doll used as the baby double is much smaller than the baby and is very noticeable in shots that switch back and forth between the covered doll and real baby.

Cat House - S5-E18

Continuity mistake: Whilst Paige and Phoebe are jumping through time, they witness Piper telling Leo she loves him for the first time. After she tells him, Leo orbs Piper and himself away. This doesn't make sense as the first time Leo orbs Piper is in season 2 Episode 8 - the water demon episode - which is actually further on in time from when she tells him she loves him (which is from season 1 episode 21).

Cat House - S5-E18

Plot hole: The demon is killed when Leo proposes, hence before the wedding. So how is he able to break the cake topper?

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: The demon was able to break the topper because the demon/Paige/Phoebe were being moved in the memories in the order Piper and Leo talked about their past. Since they talked about the wedding before the proposal, the demon was able to break the topper.

Answer: That was a mistake in the series.

Also, the episode is called 'Babies First Demon' and this alone tells us that it's Wyatt's first time in the field (so to speak) and as the sisters say, they've done a good job of clearing up their own magical messes so far. Nobody really knows how advanced Wyatt's powers are, or will become. That's why the cleaners appear, to nip things in the bud. The Cleaners didn't want to chance that the sisters could clean Wyatt's magic up, just incase they couldn't. Therefore intervening themselves, just in case.

Chosen answer: When the cleaners first surface in season 6 it is mentioned that usually the girls have been able to clean up their own messes (as seen in season 3 episode 22 when Phoebe turns back time thus concluding in the death of Prue).

Answer: Because they wanted them to fix their own mistakes.
