Prison Break

Pilot - S1-E1

Factual error: Lincoln Burrows is scheduled to die on May 11th, 2006. When Veronica learns of the priest's death, we see a wall planner on the wall with May 11th circled in red marker. The day on the wall planner is Wednesday. However, May 11th, 2006 was a Thursday. (00:32:00)

The Key - S1-E19

Plot hole: C-Note says about pulling a simple bump and grab on The Key like they did before. However, when Abruzzi and his men get The Key the 1st time, C-Note wasn't in the group then. It is extremely unlikely they would divulge this trivial piece of information as the issue is long since resolved. (00:03:50)

Buried - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Alexander Mahone reveals his so called past to Tweener and shows pulls out 2 pills from his pen, however next time we see the pills there are 3. (00:12:10 - 00:13:20)

Buried - S2-E7

Character mistake: Mahone is very smart and meticulous, similar to Schofield. He has a good knowledge of forensics as shown throughout the show. However he shoots Tweener, and places the gun in his hands after shooting him. He would know that the blood on Tweeners hands would show he wasn't holding the gun when he was killed due to blood spatter behind behind the weapon. (00:40:20)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: When Brad threatens his ex-cop friend Gary on the phone while leaving a message for him, he says "you better get down your knees and pray to God that I don't find you". Later in the court the recording is "you better get down your knees and pray to God that I never find you".

Under & Out - S3-E11

Continuity mistake: When T-Bag and Lechero are in the tunnel talking about Michael planning something, Lechero has the crowbar level with his face in some shots and lowered in others. (00:14:00)

Buried - S2-E7

Other mistake: When Sara's dad is found dead, Sarah pulled him, so his body dropped on the floor with his key, but this key is different from the other square key that they used it to open his private locker. (00:16:30)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: When 5 of the escapees are heading to Oswego to get the supplies and Michael tells Lincoln to turn right, you can see it isn't a real car as the steering wheel doesn't turn - Lincoln just moves his hand along the wheel. Watch the grooves and you will see. (00:18:50)

Dirt Nap - S3-E10

Continuity mistake: Lechero regains command of the prison and dumps the bodies of the two guys off the ledge. His face goes from being clean to full of sand to clean in three short shots. (00:36:20)

Bad Blood - S2-E17

Factual error: When Mahone is at MSP International he gets the call about C-Note being in the diner in Benson, MN and says to "fax Fanklin's mugshot to every hospital in southeastern Minnesota." Benson is in West-Central Minnesota, almost 3 hours from Minneapolis, definitely not southeastern MN. (00:03:50)

Jason James Glenn

Michael Scofield: I thought your cousin was trying to move in on your girl.
Fernando Sucre: That's my other cousin but thanks for bringing that up, jackass.

That wouldn't make sense because the original grave stone in series 4 has Michael's death date as 2005, which is supposed to be at least 3 years after Fox River.
