The No-Brainer - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: Near the end of the episode, when Brian Dempsey is threatening to kill himself, the gun he is pointing at Olivia switches hands. He is holding the revolver under his chin with his right hand in closeups, but in shots of Olivia, he is pointing her gun at her with his left hand.

Unearthed - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: Charlie, Olivia's former partner and friend in the FBI shows up in this episode during the interview with Mrs. Rusk, but Charlie was killed off by one of the shapeshifters in a previous episode, and the shapeshifter that killed Charlie was himself killed off by Olivia, who in other episodes reflected back on killing him. This episode was supposedly meant to be in season 1 as ep 21 or 22. Unknown why they didn't air it then, and decided to put it in the middle of season 2 (for no apparent reason).
