Malice in Wonderland - S8-E2

Other mistake: After Piper tells Phoebe to get to know Dex well and fast because it may be the one sign Phoebe can't ignore, Piper ends the family meeting. In the following overhead shot as Piper walks out we can see her reflection in the wall mirror and it shows her long dark brown hair, but the problem is the reflection should be showing the "Jenny Bennett" golden blonde hair instead. (00:05:05)

Super Grover

Rewitched - S8-E5

Revealing mistake: While Piper is trying to convince Paige to be at P3 for speed dating, Piper says, "I will resort to whatever I have to, besides you might actually meet someone you like," and after the quick shot of Paige, when it cuts to Leo holding Chris as he's standing in the doorway asking for baby Tylenol, the mirror's glass is green at the right side of the screen - for the special effects editing of the fake reflection. (00:04:40)

Super Grover

Rewitched - S8-E5

Continuity mistake: After the opening credits, while Piper tries to persuade Paige to help with the speed dating at P3, in two shots facing the bed and in the shot facing the mirror showing the "Jaime and Jo Bennett" reflection, the lamp on the far side of the bed is turned on. When Leo is holding Chris he walks past the mirror, and in this reflection that lamp on the far side of the bed is turned off, but in the next shot facing the bed that lamp is on again. (00:04:55)

Super Grover

Rewitched - S8-E5

Continuity mistake: After Antosis and the Imp Master are vanquished, in a following shot we see Phoebe wearing a robe and sitting on the bed, then we see her "Julie Bennett" reflection in the mirror, but notice that even though the style of the robe is the same, the colorful designs are quite different in the reflection. This happens again later when the sisters and Leo are seen in the mirror's reflection, as they undo the spell to reveal their true selves. (00:33:25)

Super Grover

Hulkus Pocus - S8-E9

Other mistake: When Piper is explaining to Phoebe that they don't have enough time to save Billie, she lists all the things they need to do ending with "fix us and then fix Billie..." This doesn't make any sense, since when she's saying it there's nothing wrong with them to fix. It's only after she says this that they come up with the plan to infect themselves. (00:29:54)

Payback's A Witch - S8-E12

Visible crew/equipment: At the bank, when Nick gets off the phone after talking to his son he walks around the stanchion, and as he says, "I never wanted to hurt anybody," we can see the light green T-mark on the floor where he had been standing. (00:29:15)

Super Grover

Repo Manor - S8-E13

Other mistake: When Piper blows up the dollhouse, killing Pilar, Phoenix and Patra, you can hear the sound effect of telekinesis, despite Piper's power being molecular combustion.

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.
