Eureka

Phoenix Rising - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Taggart shoots the pile of skin grafts, it explodes, covering him, Jack, and Jo in guts. There's nothing on Tag's shoulder at first, but after a couple of shots, there is now a slab of skin on his right shoulder.

Phoenix Rising - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Allison video calls Jack as he's finishing bathing, apparently she can see below the belt, as she remarks for him to cover himself up. But he gets dressed and doesn't move any reasonable distance from the screen, and we then see Allison's view which only captures Jack's torso, so she never would have seen his privates anyway.

Try, Try Again - S2-E2

Revealing mistake: When Carter and Jo talk to Fargo in the cage, the first clip has him floating in mid-air. Then, the force field expands. It cuts away, and when it goes back to Fargo, they didn't remove the rig he was sitting on to make him float in the first shot.

Maneater - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: When the toilet at the Sheriff's Office explodes, it slides out into the main office, with no smoke coming from it. Two shots later, it is now emanating smoke.

Marshall Jack Carter: Let's not shoot the crazy end-of-the-world machine just yet.

Just Another Day... - S5-E13

Trivia: In the final scene, as Jack and Zoe are heading out of Eureka, they pass their younger selves heading into Eureka. This scene is from the pilot episode where Zoe sees another version of her and her dad. However, in the pilot episode, the other (older) Jack and Zoe are in Jack's original car, not his Jeep, and other Zoe waves at them. I would call this a mistake, but I'm listing it as trivia because I know someone would say "after they came back from 1947, things changed so this changed too."

Show generally

Question: I've been re-watching this show, and have noticed this in nearly every episode. In scenes inside GD, there's always one person, a background extra, who seems to have clear plastic wrap over their clothes. Do you know what that is all about?

Holly Halfman

Chosen answer: It's basically just a type of suit that's made for whatever special project they're working on. No different than a lab coat, hazmat suit, fire coat, etc.
