The Wire (2002)

The Target - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: As D'Angelo is talking in the foreground, a stripper in shiny lavender dress she had removed with some difficulty in the background a few moments earlier is magically clothed again as scene closes out and camera pulls back. (00:50:25 - 00:52:05)

Cleaning Up - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Bodie and Poot shoot Wallace, blood splatters on the wall behind him. The pattern of blood is significantly different in the scene where Bunk finds his body.

Storm Warnings - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: They check up Pyramid Inc at the Eastpoint Insurance register for the Volvo S80 to GPS track at the beginning of the episode. Next scene they're putting a tracker on a S60. (00:01:53)

Back Burners - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: When Poot first jumps up after Snoop rakes the corner, the blood stain his shirt has absorbed is much larger, and singular - consistent with lying in a pool of blood not coming from your body on a flat surface. When the frame changes, there are now three blood stains, each much smaller. (00:51:52 - 00:52:56)

Clarifications - S5-E8

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Omar walks through some alleys on his way to stick up a corner crew, he is first observed carrying a double barreled shotgun with a wooden butt. A minute later, when he emerges from the alleys and dumps the drugs down the sewer, he is seen carrying a metal pump action shotgun. (00:13:40 - 00:14:30)
