Continuity mistake: When Steve and Diana are off the coast of Virginia, they share binoculars to watch for three men coming ashore in a rubber boat, and when Steve raises the binoculars to his eyes the lenses are either extremely cloudy or the lens caps are on (it reflects no light), but in the following shot when Steve lowers the binoculars the lenses are perfectly normal. Then when Steve hands Diana the binoculars the lenses are still normal, but in the following shot when Diana lowers them it's once again extremely cloudy or the lens caps are on.
Continuity mistake: In the first two closeups of Steve's two dollar bill, the serial number on the bill is "A16452841A", but when Diana kisses the bill and leaves a lipstick mark, in the next closeup it's actually a different two dollar bill with serial number "A77148841A."
Continuity mistake: Diana spins herself into Wonder Woman before she enters the gym. Watch the trash can behind her - it suddenly disappears. Additionally, in the widescreen version, a security guard can be seen standing between the car and metal door, though surely Diana would not transform into Wonder Woman right in front of someone; she even looks around to be certain nobody is watching her (the guard is not visible in the original fullscreen version). (00:35:45)
The Return of Wonder Woman - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Quite a few of the exterior shots of the jet which Steve is on are flipped shots (including the landing closeup), note the tail number "N207L" is backwards.
Fausta, the Nazi Wonder Woman - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: After Wonder Woman is kidnapped, Steve commandeers a taxicab which has damage on its roof, but when Steve is driving the cab there's a black cloth taped to its roof covering the damage.
Wonder Woman Meets Baroness Von Gunther - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman calls the Dept of Motor Vehicles disguised as General Blankenship, the woman who answers the phone has long polished fingernails, but in the closeup of her going through the file box the fingernails we see are quite short and unpolished (looks like a man's hand).
Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman chases after Benson her boots are flat and then the heels appear. It happens again later, while The Falcon tries to reach Professor Warren.
Wonder Woman vs Gargantua - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: After the Nazis capture Steigler, while they're at the oil refinery Gargantua is in a cage behind them. When Erica blows the whistle, the gorilla reaches through the bars and grabs a large cardboard cutout of Wonder Woman, which was leaning against the wall, but the problem is that in the previous shots that cardboard cutout was not there.
I Do, I Do - S2-E8
Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman is chasing the golf cart, in the close-ups, the golf bags are not moving, but in the far-away shot, one golf bag is bouncing all over the place. When they zoom in, it's not moving again.
Wonder Woman vs Gargantua - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: An alarm button vanishes from the safe house room wall between shots.
The Feminum Mystique: Part 2 - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman is spinning the XPJ-1 around, she's seen approaching the jet with her hands empty and her lasso on her side where it usually is. As the scene progresses, her golden lasso magically appears in her right hand even though she never reached down to pick it up.
Continuity mistake: When Diana escapes from the guy who had kidnapped the boy, she runs into the woods wearing a dress. When she starts to turn into Wonder Woman, she is somehow now wearing pants just before she changes into Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman vs Gargantua - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: When Diana is left in the office by Steve, she changes into Wonder Woman. When she does, watch the open folder and pen on the desk on the left side of the screen. When she becomes Wonder Woman, the pen disappears.
The New Original Wonder Woman - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: The plane that the German is flying is an American plane, and there are obviously two different model of planes being used through the scene.
Continuity mistake: When Mariposa is skydiving out of the plane, any time he's seen from afar, he's wearing a black oxygen mask. When the camera is closer to Mariposa, he's not wearing a mask. However, when he lands, he is wearing a mask.
Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman lassos the two hoods who were after Steve, in the wideshot the lasso's small loop is at the left encircling the two men, but in the closeup the small loop is at the right side, then it's back at the left.
Wonder Woman Meets Baroness Von Gunther - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: When Wonder Woman and the Baroness are rolling down the grassy hill the Baroness is wearing open-heel stilettos with ankle straps, but when Wonder Woman throws her lasso the Baroness is wearing classic pumps.
Wonder Woman in Hollywood - S1-E14
Continuity mistake: After Bremer "shoots" Wonder Woman, when Jim runs after Bremer and tackles him to the ground Jim's stunt double is wearing dark rubber sole shoes, even though Jim is wearing brown dress shoes.
Fausta, the Nazi Wonder Woman - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Diana chases after Horst she changes into Wonder Woman and her boots have heels, but when she lassos Horst the heels vanish and the boots are now flats.
Fausta, the Nazi Wonder Woman - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Fausta helps Wonder Woman and Steve escape, they climb the rope out of the water. Steve's pants are obviously wet as he's climbing the rope. However, when he climbs over the side of the well, the camera angle changes and his pants are magically dry.
Answer: There is no logical reason. Any normal person would notice these type of absences. The show employs a "suspension of disbelief," which is a literary device where the movie audience or a book reader accepts that certain things are unreal for the sake of the story to be told. It is similar to no-one noticing that Clark Kent looks exactly like Superman because he wears glasses.
