Let's Give the Boy a Hand - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: A photograph of a landfill is shown from when Dexter is a child, but when Dexter goes to visit the location of the former landfill, an old church can be seen in the background. This church likely predates the landfill as evidenced by its Gothic-style architecture. (00:32:00)
Shrink Wrap - S1-E8
Visible crew/equipment: When Dexter is picking up the fruit dropped by the man carrying groceries, the cameraman is reflected on the side of the car. (00:17:30)

Let's Give the Boy a Hand - S1-E4
Other mistake: Episode 3 begins with Dexter at the beach during a funeral. He is wearing a pair of stylish sunglasses. At the start of episode 4, Sgt Doakes is investigating a crime scene at the beach. He is wearing the same pair of sunglasses. Given the tense relationship between the two characters, it is unlikely they would share accessories.
Seeing Red - S1-E10
Continuity mistake: When Angel is at the bar, the girl he is talking to has a drink held up by her face when viewed from behind. In every shot from in front, the drink is on the table. (00:18:20)
