Charmed

Primrose Empath - S3-E6

Revealing mistake: When Prue is practising using her powers while astral projecting, when Phoebe walks away to go see her in the attack you can see the makeup they used in an attempt to hide her tattoo on the right side of her back. It looks as though she's been bruised there. (00:00:43)

Witches in Tights - S5-E5

Revealing mistake: The character Ramus (the elder) changes actor when Leo jumps and orbs to get him away from the attack of the Aggressor. The actor's stand-in is visible instead. (00:18:52)

Pardon My Past - S2-E14

Continuity mistake: Leo says that Piper's past lover is his past life. If it was a past life, in 1924, that means Leo must have died almost straight away to be old enough to qualify as a doctor in WW2. And it wouldn't be his past life but his own past if it was the same life from before he became a Whitelighter. But then he'd also have been 15-20 years older before he died in WW2.

Charmed Again (2) - S4-E2

Continuity mistake: In the church scene when Phoebe and Piper are showing Paige how to use her power, Piper says "according to the prophecy, the third sister has the power to move things with her mind, like Prue could." Prue was not the third sister, but the first. Paige is technically The Fourth Sister, but since the prophecy didn't speak of a "Power of Four", she would automatically become the third sister after Prue's death. (01:02:42)

Witch Wars - S6-E21

Continuity mistake: When Paige goes to The Bay Mirror to bring Phoebe potions we see she has 3 different colored potions: green, blue, and orange. She hands the light blue "explosive" to Phoebe, then hands the green one saying it's "acid" but when she hands Phoebe the last potion the camera angle changes and we see that she's again handing her the green one. At this time we see that Phoebe is holding the blue and the orange ones. (00:10:28)

Saving Private Leo - S4-E17

Other mistake: This entire episode the ghost brothers whine that Leo is responsible for them dying and he left them to die, even Leo believes this. It makes no sense. As we see in the flashback even if Leo stayed to help they were blown up moments later and still would have died.

The Three Faces of Phoebe - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: When Phoebe casts the spell to hear her hearts desire about marrying Cole it conjures old Phoebe and young Phoebe. When Leo, Piper, and Paige enter the room they all room perplexed by who the two people, just conjured, are. If this is supposed to be young Phoebe, wouldn't Leo (who has followed all them their whole lives) Piper and especially Phoebe recognize the younger Phoebe immediately instead of being confused by who she is?

UniquelyMe

Charmageddon - S7-E13

Plot hole: When the Avatars agree to rewind time they say that they can either put the world right or save Brody but not both. This doesn't make sense since they're rewinding to right when they put everyone to sleep, which is before Brody was killed.

Charmageddon - S7-E13

Other mistake: When Phoebe gets the premonition to see all the loss, she sees the scene where Piper dies in All Hell Breaks Loose. Since time was rewound this event never happened in this timeline, and we're never given any reason to believe Phoebe would know this happened after the time reversal.

Witch Way Now? - S4-E22

Other mistake: After they talk to the Angel of Destiny for the first time, they send Leo to ask the Elders if he is legit. After Leo leaves they find out about Agent Jackman, and the following events unfold. After Jackman busts them Piper calls for Leo and tells him "It's OK, you can orb" and he appears asking her "What about Agent Jackman?" Except that Leo was gone before they found out about him and the girls hadn't told Leo yet that he even existed. (00:09:09 - 00:21:58)

Trial by Magic - S4-E11

Other mistake: When Phoebe is trying to summon Angela the spell doesn't work and Leo says that she needs the power of three. We've seen this spell done with just one sister in the past and it's never explained why they'd need to do it together this time.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: The furniture used throughout the show regularly gets blown up or destroyed but then mysteriously re appears later on or in the next episode.

Animal Pragmatism - S2-E13

Factual error: During the ritual, we can see that the snake that is magically transformed into a man is a milk snake. But it's not poisonous, it's a colubrid. The creators apparently wanted to use its resemblance to a poisonous coral snake, which is an elapid. (00:02:35)

The Witch Is Back - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: When Prue lets Matthew out of the locket, the front view Prue has her right hand on her stomach, when the shot changes to the back view her hands are by her side, it does this multiple times.
