Revealing mistake: After Gilligan lies down on his hammock, there is an "X" in the sand where actor Alan Hale, Jr. stands. Obviously it is the mark where Hale is supposed to stand, and he does stand there as he speaks to Bob Denver.
Visible crew/equipment: Outside the Howell's hut as the castaways ready to leave the island, the shadow of a boom mike enters the upper left side of the scene twice.
Visible crew/equipment: As the flame is blown out by Skipper's sneeze from behind a board held by Gilligan, you can just see a man from Skipper's left blowing it out.
Visible crew/equipment: When Gilligan is packing, Skipper sneezes and blows out the candle. The third time, Gilligan blocks the candle, and if you watch the right side of the screen, you see the tip of somebody's nose pop into the scene as he blows out the candle.
Revealing mistake: When Skipper is blindfolded, as he rears back getting ready to sneeze, watch his right shoulder. You can see the line that pulls the blind off when he sneezes.
Revealing mistake: When Skipper is sneezing after Gilligan showered, he turns towards the wardrobe. As he sneezes, in a "blink and you miss it" moment, the line pulling up the bottom of the green cloth is momentarily visible, pulling from the upper right corner of the screen.
Other mistake: In the opening scene, and later, the camera shows the Howells' hut, but the scene is in Skipper and Gilligan's hut.
The Friendly Physician - S2-E29
Plot hole: The scientist yells for Igor to capture the escaping Castaways, to which Igor responds "capture them yourself" in Ginger's voice. The scientist appears surprised to find out Igor is not Igor, but how can this be? He had to be the one to pull the lever to switch everyone's personalities and bodies around, so he should have already known.
The Friendly Physician - S2-E29
Factual error: When the castaways are coming back to the island at the end, you can see some of the Los Angeles buildings in the background in the high camera angle.

Continuity mistake: The color of Ginger's shoes are different once returning to the island at the end of the episode from what she wore on the mad scientist's island.

Other mistake: The whole time the control for the booths is operated, the handles are pulled towards the camera. In the final lab scene, Gilligan flips the lever towards the camera, but you can see the indicator reads 'OFF'.
The Friendly Physician - S2-E29
Continuity mistake: After Skipper admonishes Gilligan for his suggestion, Balinkoff says "No, no", and starts to gesture with his right hand. After the angle change, he starts to gesture again.
Continuity mistake: After the vampire's wife (Ginger) unfolds the couch bed, she laughs with her arms down and spread out by her sides, but the next shot shows her hands up by her face, clutching her gown.
Continuity mistake: When the imposter Gilligan is playing chess with Mr. Howell, the long shots show the imposter holding the spoon transmitter near the center of the table the chess board is on, whereas the close-ups show the transmitter close to the edge of the table.
Continuity mistake: In the hut, "Gilligan" has the spoon of his transmitter knife open so his commander can hear the conversation. In the wide angle shots, the spoon is half way out. In the close ups, it's fully in position.
Pass the Vegetables, Please - S3-E3
Other mistake: After Gilligan gets up to take the sand to Mary Ann, the camera closes in on the box lid. After it does, the picture goes into a freeze frame because the ripples in the water of the lagoon stop dead still for the few seconds until the dissolve into the next scene.
Chosen answer: It looks like a mistake to me I see it when the Professor is put into a trance, but it is not there later.
