What Lies Ahead - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When the walkers come through the cars, most shots show Carl and Sophia to be under the same car. When Sophia is attacked by the walker, Carl is not there and Sophia is shown on her own in other shots as well. (00:19:25 - 00:20:05)

Suggested correction: They never get under the same car. When we see them first get under the cars, they are both seen getting under cars going in the same direction at the same time (they'd have to go in opposite direction to get under the same car from both sides). Then in the first close up of Sophia, we can see Carl's head in the shadow and then a strip of sunlight indicating 2 separate cars.

What Lies Ahead - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: When Carl rolls out the knife pack he found, the scene cuts to Shane working on the engine, and you can see traffic on a highway through the bottom of the windshield. (00:33:00 - 00:34:00)

What Lies Ahead - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Daryl is cutting open a walker in the woods to see what meat it ate while searching for Sophia he stabs the walker several times, but the knife is not bloody and it stays clean. (00:33:30)

What Lies Ahead - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When Carl gets shot, and we see him in the ground, not only does the blood spot on his short change in the next shot of him on the ground, but he's in a completely different shirt. It's still a cameo shirt, but the cameo pattern is different.

Bloodletting - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: When T-Dog is telling Dale that all he found was ibuprofen and cigarettes, he is holding his hand up and they are both looking at each other. In the next shot, suddenly his arm is down and they are both looking forward. (00:22:44)

Quantom X

Chupacabra - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: Daryl ripped off his shirt to wrap around his wound, and was left in only his vest. Except, a shot later, he's seen wearing his shirt again, cutting off the walker's ears. (00:25:30)

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: As Daryl and Shane argue near the start, Daryl's movements don't correspond with the changing shots: one moment he is standing in front of Carol, then he is standing by her, then he has moved closer to Rick - all within the same one-liners. As his argument with Shane grows, he again is standing by Carol, or closer, near Rick. At one point, a shot shows Daryl about to lounge at Shane, as Rick blocks him, but the very next shot shows him right next to Carol, who at that point would have been standing behind Rick. (00:10:00 - 00:11:00)

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: After Carol tells Shane they are not leaving without finding Sophia, Daryl enters and reminds Shane about the doll he found down at the swamp earlier, and they start to argue. During this he crosses front to Carol's right. In the very next shot Daryl is suddenly shown standing in the same spot as prior, next to Carol. (00:10:00)

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Rick is talking with Hershel in his kitchen and asks him to please not send Them out into the world again. Hershel is looking down at his sink from the side angle. When it cuts to a view from behind, he's suddenly looking up to the left out of the window, only to lower his head back down towards the sink again. (00:13:57)

Quantom X

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: After talking with Hershel, Rick heads out to the barn and meets up with Shane at a tractor. Shane asks him which way is it going to go as Rick is looking to his left down at the tractor. When the shot cuts to The Other Side as Rick responds, he's suddenly looking straight ahead at the barn. (00:15:32)

Quantom X

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: Deleted footage/special release only: Carol confronts Daryl about the boy being held hostage inside the barn (following Sophia's death), reasoning with him about pretending not to care when he truly does. At one point he moves to her, almost in her face. However, the following shot shows only a close up of Carol, implying they are standing feet apart, which is not the case. (00:24:10)

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Revealing mistake: Dale threatens to shoot Shane, and Shane walks right up to him until the barrel of Dale's rifle is against his chest. Just before Shane walks up to him, you can see the imprint of the rifle muzzle on Shane's shirt from an earlier take. (00:32:50)

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: As the group kills the walkers that come out of the barn, the camera shows several different vantage points from in front of the barn, inside of the barn etc., it shows the walkers lying with a clear path between them, and in another it shows the walkers lying in a jumbled pile with no path between them. This goes back and forth a few times until Sophia comes out of the barn, and there is no clear path again.

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Other mistake: As Daryl carries a saddle toward the barn, in the far shot, there is no one around. The shot then changes to him entering the barn carrying the saddle inside. Suddenly we now see Carol coming around the corner, several yards behind him. Where did she come from? Unless she was already inside next door and saw him enter, she shouldn't have been there.

Video

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Revealing mistake: When Shane lets loose on the gang at the barn about the two walkers Hershel and Rick just brought out from the woods, he fires several shots into the female walker's torso, as he screams at Rick about them not being human. Then subsequently fires two shots at her head. Yet she is still moving when she should have dropped. As ANY blow to the brain kills instantly. But she doesn't drop until Shane dramatically moves right up to her and shoots her in the forehead.

Suggested correction: Those two shots were actually into the torso. He fired three into the torso, paused, two more into the heart and lungs, paused, then two more into the torso before he put one in the head.

Pretty Much Dead Already - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Shane finds Dale in the swamp trying to hide the guns, when he first sees Dale, Dale is holding a large spike to drive into the tree. In the next second they show Dale standing next to the tree with the spike already in it.

Rogue Element - S11-E11

Trivia: Eugene is looking for his missing girlfriend, "Stephanie." Princess visits him. He shows her his pinboard with strings attaching clues. He's found out plumber Roman Calhoun, was the last person to see her and tracks him down to a dodgy outfit at "1634 Racine." This is the home address in "The Untouchables" (1987 film about the capture and imprisonment of Al Capone, starring Kevin Costner & Andy Garcia), of Jimmy the good Irish cop, played by Sean Connery. (00:16:44)

Tell It to the Frogs - S1-E3

Question: Why does Lori tell Daryl that Rick will show him where his brother is but then 10 minutes later tried to talk Rick out of going?

Answer: No, she actually tries to talk Rick out of it, but he's already made up his mind, minutes later when Daryl asks him about the location of his brother Lori says "he'll show you."

Answer: It's not shown, but I think Lori is suffering from some sort of PTSD due to thinking her husband had died, having an affair with Shane and of course the zombie apocalypse as well! This isn't the only time she contradicts herself so it kinda backs this theory up.
