Interesting - S1-E5

Nasty - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Mike approaches Rick while he is reading the Cosmopolitan magazine, Rick stands up and drops the magazine on the table. The shot then cuts to Vyvyan briefly, but when it cuts back to Rick and Mike, the magazine has disappeared from the table. (00:09:35)

Demolition - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When Rik is watching 'Nozin' Aroun'' on TV, he dislikes the program and smashed the TV with his foot. You can still briefly see the image of the show on the TV, even though the TV is smashed. This means the effects people didn't take the image off the green screen quick enough. Also, a few seconds later when Rik is talking to Mike, there are spikes of the screen remaining around the edge of the TV. However, they are green - the remains of the green screen. (00:27:20)
