Mayham - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: When Paulie Walnuts is talking to Tony in the hospital room, the close up of the heart monitor shows the heart rate in highlighted text, with the word "Tachycardia" flashing. In the shot from Paulie's point of view, the heart rate is in normal text and "Tachycardia" is not flashing.

Cold Stones - S6-E11

Deliberate mistake: Tony smashes AJ's front windshield of his Nissan SUV one time with a plastic sports helmet and it leaves a hole 4 times the size. Not only is the scale size of helmet to hole incorrect, but front vehicle windshields don't shatter like that. Modern windshields are made of laminated safety glass, which consists of two curved sheets of glass with a plastic layer laminated between them for safety, and bonded into the window frame. It would've taken many impacts to cause such a hole, not one hit. (00:49:00 - 00:49:45)

Soprano Home Movies - S6-E13

Other mistake: In season 5 episode 7, Tony is talking about JFK, and said he was in grammar school when it happened. However, in this episode Tony celebrates his 47th birthday. He was probably born in 1960, so he would have been no more than 3 years old and not in grammar school when JFK was president. (00:26:36 - 00:38:02)

Remember When - S6-E15

Visible crew/equipment: While Tony and Paulie are alone aboard the rented boat, Tony questions Paulie about being the joke leak. When Paulie denies it and says, "It wasn't me, Ton'... That's right," Tony lifts his beer and drinks. It then cuts to a wide shot of the swaying boat, and at the top of the screen, we see a hand move atop the steering wheel at the helm; we even see the top of the hair of this crouching crew member as the wind blows, right before this shot cuts away.

Remember When - S6-E15

Visible crew/equipment: At the hotel's complimentary breakfast buffet, Paulie loads up a plate filled with Danish and Yoplait for the drive down to Florida. It then cuts to the Wycoff Therapeutic Center, and at the start of this first shot, we can see the boom operator (papers in the back pocket) with left arm up, at the right side of the screen. The reflection of the moving boom pole is also visible over the fireplace mantle.

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.
