The Sopranos

Cold Cuts - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: At Uncle Pat's farm, when Tony sits down to breakfast and the conversation turns to terrorism, when Pat says, "Not my problem much longer," we see the newspaper in Tony B's hands in the wide shot, but it cuts to a close-up and the newspaper is turned the opposite way, with no images and different body text.

He Is Risen - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: At Nuovo Vesuvio, Artie pours some Candolini for himself and Tony, then sets the bottle down with the back label (it has the barcode) facing out in the wide shot. In the next close-up, as Ralphie sits down at the table, now the front label of the Candolini is facing out, but when Tony gets up to leave, the bottle reverts to the back label facing out in the wide shot.

Knight in White Satin Armor - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: In the morning, while Janice waits outside in the car, Livia starts to criticize Tony, and when Tony rushes out of the house, in the interior shot there’s a screen door. Then, in the next exterior shot, the screen door has vanished, and now the front door has a deadbolt cylinder as well as a door knob back plate.

House Arrest - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: After Carmela heads out, Tony grabs a Dove bar from the freezer and takes a seat at the counter. When Tony unfolds the Waste News, its front page changes between the close-up and side shots. The same thing happens between shots when Tony opens to the second page of the newspaper.

In Camelot - S5-E7

Continuity mistake: When Tony is with Fran in her apartment, he's wearing an abstract pattern polo. Then they drive to the racetrack. At the racetrack, Tony's shirt is the same style, but the pattern is different. Then, when Tony is with Hesh, his polo reverts back to the original pattern.

Bust Out - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Tony lets AJ steer while they're aboard The Stugots, in two long shots, AJ is wearing a PFD just as their boat's wake capsizes a small rowboat, but in all other shots, he's not.

Super Grover

Remember When - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: At the Miami restaurant, when Tony, Paulie, and Beansie lift their champagne flutes for a toast, in the close-up Beansie holds out his glass with his right hand, but in the two wide shots he holds the glass out in his left hand.

I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Tony, Carmela, and the kids end up at Nuovo Vesuvio during the storm. When Artie serves the dinner, AJ picks up a piece of pasta with his fingers, and in the shot facing Tony as he reaches across the table to AJ, he's holding his dinner knife, but in the next shot facing AJ, it's a fork in Tony's outstretched hand, not the knife.

46 Long - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Tony shows up at Livia's house with a bouquet of flowers, in the exterior shot note the transparency of the screen door's glass, the front door silver-color knob with its back plate, as well as the deadbolt cylinder. As Tony enters the doorway in the next interior shot, we cannot see out through the screen door's glass, the door knob is gold-color, and both the knob's back plate and the deadbolt cylinder have vanished.

Isabella - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: At the hospital, when Agent Harris presents his business card in case Tony changes his mind, Harris holds his card at its bottom so it's up over his hand, but in the next shot facing Tony, Harris holds the card at its top so it's below his hand, and it continues this way in the next shot as Carmela takes it from his hand.

Irregular Around the Margins - S5-E5

Walk Like a Man - S6-E17

The Second Coming - S6-E19

Continuity mistake: Dr. Melfi is in session with Dr. Elliot Kupferberg. Elliot picks up his water bottle and the popup cap is on the bottle. In the next he is drinking from the bottle, but he isn't shown removing the cap. (00:40:57)

Made in America - S6-E21

Continuity mistake: When Tony gets into Holsten's the man with the moustache sitting in the first booth facing the entrance is wearing a ring on his right-hand middle finger that disappears when Tony is seated. (00:54:19)

Down Neck - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: While Tony is talking to Melfi about A.J, Melfi's lipstick color darkens halfway during the conversation. (00:12:37)

Knight in White Satin Armor - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When Janice is trying on her wedding gown with Carmela, her tattoo is gone. However, in all the other shots, her tattoo is above her cleavage line, between her boobs. It's nowhere to be seen in the wedding dress shots.

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

Suggested correction: Actually, her tattoo is visible. The style of the wedding dress she had on was obviously chosen for the way that it NEARLY covered up the tattoo. It is easily seen if your eyes are not glued to her cleavage near the 19 minute mark.

Sorry. There is no way her tattoo is covered up. I looked at the prior engagement party scene and jumped to the wedding dress, this is an error. There is no covering it up.

The tattoo is there and it is definitely covered up. Look at her right boob, not left, since we are seeing a reflection of her in the mirror, and you'll find that tattoo all right.

Suggested correction: Actually there is more than one shot where you can't see the tattoo at all. It depends on the angle. In most shots the top of the tattoo is always visible and in others it's not at all.

Dr Jennifer Melfi: How'd that make you feel?
Anthony 'Tony' Soprano Sr.: Wished it was me in there.
Dr Jennifer Melfi: Giving the beating or taking it?

Christopher - S4-E3

Question: Was it Jimmy Altieri standing in the back of the crowd during the Columbus rally scene? He was killed in season one for being an FBI informant and here they probably used him as a stand in... If so, then that is some sort of mistake, because I think, it really is him. (00:15:50)

Answer: That's not Jimmy, just a look-a-like. Jimmy's short and stout, the guy in "Christopher" episode is tall and medium built. The hair is also different.
