Map 1213 - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: As the trio walk towards the ranch, the car is parked next to a pole with a small metal sign attached. (This is not the private property sign that is located on an adjacent post). In the shot from the top look down at the trio the small sign has disappeared. (00:38:50 - 00:41:10)

Continuity mistake: When the kid returns from the store and opens the trunk, Michael and T-bag both grab a shovel, Michael grabs the green and T-bag grabs the silver handled shovel. The next shot they have switched shovels and keep the switched shovels the rest of the scene. (01:17:30)

Suggested correction: Both handles are green. The sun is reflecting on the one due to the angle and the glare gives the impression of being silver.

Continuity mistake: Season 2, episode 6. While the guys are digging in the garage, Michael tells Sucre about the website they can use, as C-Note walks in. He closes the door behind him, but misses the catch, and you can see the door start to swing open again behind him as he walks further into the room. Cut to Lincoln for a second, then to a wide shot, and the door is now firmly closed.

Factual error: Early in the episode, a flyover context shot is made. It is labeled "Salt Lake City Federal Building." In reality, the image is of the Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth, Texas. In the background, you can see the community arts center and the University of North Texas Health Sciences Center.

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)

Buried - S2-E7

Revealing mistake: When Sara Tancredi is pulling her dead father off the door he lets out a very audible grunt and you can see his eyes and mouth moving around, a few seconds later he is on the floor and his eyes are dull and his skin slightly pasty. (00:16:40 - 00:17:05)

Buried - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: The Key that falls out of the governor's pocket when Sara is trying to save him is not the same as the one she picks up. (00:24:00 - 00:25:00)

More trivia for Prison Break

Answer: Roughly as follows. Linc "kills" Steadman in 2001. Michael robs the bank on March 9th 2005 and is sent to Fox River on April 11th. The breakout from Fox River takes place on or around May 25-31. Michael arrives in Sona on June 17th 2005. More details are here: https://prisonbreak.fandom.com/wiki/Prison_Break_timeline.

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.
