Last Day on Earth - S6-E16

Revealing mistake: One of the saviours goes to shoot Carol but Morgan shoots him first, about 4-5 times. The man goes through the motions of being shot and we get a good view of his body/chest area and head, but there are no bullet holes.

The Day Will Come When You Won't Be - S7-E1

Other mistake: When Rick is on top of the RV, Negan peppers the roof with bullets from the inside, so that Rick has to run and jump onto the hanging walker. Negan's using a machine gun, so a lot of bullets, and the exit holes that are made, are visible on the roof. The softer material of the inside ceiling would have been really torn up, but when Rick gets back into the RV with Negan's axe, the ceiling is undamaged. (00:21:38 - 00:24:36)

Crow-9

The Day Will Come When You Won't Be - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: When Negan makes Rick get the axe from the top of the RV, Rick is fighting the Walkers as he heads for the RV door after picking up the axe. He slams a walker's head into the back of the RV, blood splattering everywhere. Next scene shows Negan and Rick driving back to the group, and the back of the RV is spotless.

The Well - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When Morgan and Carol leave The Kingdom on horseback to take Carol to her "gone, not gone" house, Morgan is riding on Carol's right. When they are shown arriving, and Morgan dismounts, his horse is slightly in front of Carol's and to her left. Morgan throws down his staff and slings his reins over the picket fence. Then, he returns to help the still recovering Carol from her horse, and we see Morgan's horse is back standing neatly next to Carol's on her right. (00:42:13 - 00:42:52)

Crow-9

Sing Me a Song - S7-E7

Visible crew/equipment: Negan and Carl go for a ride in the big truck. Daryl tells Negan not to harm Carl and he flips him off. In this scene, the camera tracks upward and its shadow casts on the truck. Also a film light can be seen reflected in the door jam.

Sing Me a Song - S7-E7

Factual error: Rosita picks up a spent cartridge fired from the desert eagle earlier in the episode, which is either a .357 Magnum, .44 Magnum, or .50 AE as those are the only chambers that the desert eagle is made in. She then asks Eugene to make her a bullet. In the following episode he does and she uses that bullet to fire a pot shot at Negan. But the casing that she picked up would not fit the 9mm Beretta she uses, nor could it be modified to do so.

Hearts Still Beating - S7-E8

Continuity mistake: When Rick and Aaron are loading up the supplies from the houseboat, they put a container with a red can in straight and flush with the other container, so that the lid sticking up is to the left. In the interior shot of the van, the container is twisted sideways and pushed back with the lid to the front.

Bishop73

Rock in the Road - S7-E9

Other mistake: When the Alexandria Group are at the Hilltop trying to convince Gregory to join them in their fight against the Saviors, we can see the actresses who play Michonne and Maggie trying to hold in their laughter. (00:06:02)

Rock in the Road - S7-E9

Continuity mistake: When they get back to the community after stealing all explosives from the road, the Saviors show up and search for Daryl. When they do, that's when they show a one-second clip of the guy Dwight killed a few episodes back, the guy who said there was nothing to go back to. The guy is then shown to be a walker in the defense yard of the Saviors. So, how is he shutting the van doors of a vehicle in this episode? (00:43:12)

Rock in the Road - S7-E9

Revealing mistake: When the two cars drive down the freeway with the cable in-between them, there is no blood or body parts on the cars at the end despite the carnage, suggesting CGI effects.

Hostiles and Calamities - S7-E11

Revealing mistake: When Frankie and Tanya visit Eugene while he's playing the video game, he refuses to give them the pills he made. They call him a coward then leave, and in the next closeup of Eugene's video game screen we can see his reflection, but the problem is his reflection is not backwards as it should be (note his shirt buttons, etc). (00:44:10)

Super Grover

Mercy - S8-E1

Other mistake: When the herd appear on the freeway walking around the corner it's the same footage used in the previous season, just before Rick and Michone drive the two cars at them connected by the cable.

Monsters - S8-E3

Other mistake: Eric gets shot while fighting with a group against the Saviors. Aaron carries him to a tree and leaves him so he can continue fighting. When Aaron comes back to check on him, Eric is gone and the gun is left behind. Aaron yells his own name instead of Eric's name. (00:33:30)

Suggested correction: He screams Eric, it just sounds a little odd so the subtitles got it wrong.

A New Beginning - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: During a fight with Gregory, Maggie's right cheek gets cut and blood runs down her neck, but the next day talking to Rick her right cheek shows no sign of ever being cut.

A New Beginning - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: Maggie comes over to Rick's porch to chat about the group not being whole. When she arrives the sun is going down. She even says something about putting kids to bed. Near the end of the scene there is a closer shot of her and it is afternoon.

Find Me - S10-E18

Continuity mistake: Daryl and Carol are walking to an abandoned home. Carol walks by a bush with bright sunlight coming from the left of the shot. The angle changes and it's overcast with no sun. Then we see Daryl again and it's once again sunny.

A - S4-E16

Question: Why was the fence down in the flashbacks with Hershel at the prison?

Answer: The walkers could have knocked them down more than once. There may have been another wave that knocked down the fence earlier and they're going to put it up again soon.
