Continuity mistake: When Pam finds one of the small communicators in the motel parking lot she's wearing pumpkin-color hosiery, but when Pam gets into her car and the ignition starts courtesy of the aliens, in the closeups of Pam's legs she is not wearing any hose at all and her shoes differ.

Desperado - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: The small horse trailer hitched up to the back of Ralph and Pam's station wagon has the license plate number, T-479E5, which is visible a few times, then when Ralph is on King's property he gets a vision of Desperado's location, and just as Ralph does his vanishing thing, one of King's horse trailers has the same license plate with the number, T-479E5.

The Greatest American Hero (1) - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In one scene, Ralph is in a phone booth desperately trying to make a phone call. Ralph is nervous and panicky. But when you look at his reflection on the phone, you can see a big relaxed smile on him. When it cuts back to him, he is still acting nervous and panicky.
