Child's Play - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: When Castle is allowed to talk to Mrs. Ruiz's second graders, as he enters the classroom, he is hit in the temple with an object thrown at him and holds his hand to his head in pain. After he turns to say something to Beckett, as he turns back, not only has the hand on his head switched, it's also much lower, down on his chin. (00:07:55)

Driven - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: When Beckett brings Castle to the campsite, he tells her he never would have set up camp near the ocean because of his research for Tropical Storm, and his irrational fear of tsunamis. Beckett then says to Castle, "You bought a beach house in the Hamptons." To which Castle replies, "Yeah, on the inland side, not the ocean side." But in 5x04 [Murder, He Wrote], Castle gives Beckett a tour of the Hamptons house, finishing out to the backyard with the sounds of waves crashing, and Castle saying, "This is actually my favorite part. The sound of the ocean, complete privacy..." (00:36:15 - 00:37:00)

Disciple - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: When Kate gets a call from Lanie who asks her to come down to the morgue, Kate's jacket is beige. When Kate enters the morgue, it's black/dark blue. (00:07:40)

The Good, the Bad & the Baby - S6-E10

Continuity mistake: When Lanie arrives at the precinct to check on the baby, her shirt is tucked into her jeans, as seen when she bends over to pick the baby up. When the shot changes to behind Lanie, her shirt is untucked, and then when the shot changes to the front of Lanie, her shirt is tucked in again.

Kill Shot - S4-E9

Continuity mistake: The paper dolls found at the crime scenes are mixed up. The 1st one found was from Wyatt's scene and called the "Persecution of Kings" which would lead them to King Street, the site of Wyatt's murder. This one should have been found by Sara Vazquez.

Veritas - S6-E22

Continuity mistake: In the flashback of Beckett and Montgomery, when Montgomery finds her in the archive room studying her mother's murder case, Beckett says that she was unable to find any leads worth following. But in season three, when Montgomery explains to Castle that that encounter was when he first met Kate, he says "she found some things that didn't add up", suggesting that she did find a clue worth investigating.

A Chill Goes Through Her Veins - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: When Castle and Beckett visit Mr. Davidson, he comes out chasing his two grandchildren - a tall girl in a red jacket and another one who's slightly shorter in a light pink jacket. When the detective and Castle walk up, the grandkids have switched places. When Mr. Davidson says, "Did I scare you," Beckett has her hand in her jacket, but when Beckett says, "Mr. Davidson," her hand is not in her pocket anymore. When Mr. Davidson says, "Why don't we go inside," Beckett is putting her badge in her pocket, but in the shot before she already put her badge in her jacket. Finally, when Mr. Davidson says, "Alright!" the girls have switched places again between shots. (00:09:50)

For Better or Worse - S6-E23

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, the Mercedes S class that is burning is not the same car that Castle drove previously in the episode, it's an older model one. Either it's a mistake or has to do something with the plot resolution, decide yourselves...

Reality Star Struck - S5-E14

Question: Before this episode, there was a Christmas episode "Secret Santa" and then there was "Significant Others" with Meredith showing up to take care of Alexis. In that episode, Beckett mentions choosing the movie Valentine's Day for a date night, causing her to lose a turn. In this episode, Castle and Beckett are celebrating their first Valentine's Day together. So, are they celebrating Valentine's Day twice? This wasn't too long after the Christmas episode and when Beckett made her movie choice, no snow was on the ground. Is this a mistake or is this really their first Valentine's Day together?

Answer: The networks are now having winter breaks. A mid season end of new episodes, when they come back after the new year, it picks up as if several months have gone by. Beckett suggested Valentine's Day as a "chick flick" to watch as she is moved in. Also some episodes are not scheduled to air in order.
