Pretty Little Liars

Show generally

Continuity mistake: When Jason first appears in the show he is played by Parker Bagley and is portrayed as a proper, motivated and well held, wide structured man, but disappears for a season or so, and is replaced by Drew Van Acker, and is now portrayed as a paranoid druggie, with mental health issues, and a lanky skinny structure.

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Aria's dad drops her off at school, the camera angle out the passenger window shows her wearing blue jeans. Once she's out, the camera angle changes and she's wearing black Levis.

A Person of Interest - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: On the video of Ian supposedly killing Alison, we see her arm fall to the ground with her "Alison" bracelet visible. But in a later scene where Emily watches Ian put his bag in the athletics room, we cut back to the video and Alison's arm suddenly has a sleeve covering up her bracelet. When we see the video again later in the series, her bracelet is visible again.

Picture This - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Hanna and Caleb are sitting on the swings in the park, the first part of the scene shows nothing in Caleb's lap. However, when it cuts to them holding hands, a pizza box appears. (00:29:10)

I Must Confess - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: Mrs Sullivan circles "nosey bitches" on a paper (someone's file) and the circle is overlapped at the bottom. When the camera moves out the circle changes and is disconnected from the top instead.

Cat's Cradle - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: When Hannah is on the phone to Emily, Hannah pours a glass of fizzy drink (coke or whatever) and is about to drink from the glass, in the next shot she takes the can and walks away and the glass isn't seen again.

Grave New World - S4-E13

Continuity mistake: When Emily and Aria are contemplating climbing out of the window and down the trellis to get help, they hear Alison scream and the broken window slams down completely; the shot briefly changes then the window is shown half-way up.

Run, Ali, Run - S5-E6

Continuity mistake: Hanna and Alison are at Hanna's home, when the bell rings. Hanna takes a look through the window directly next to the door, and claims it's just Travis. When she opens the door and goes outside, there is no window visible. At least not any kind that could have seen Travis. It seemed to just have disappeared mysteriously. The transition of shots between the set of hanna's interior and exterior is done very poorly. (00:12:10)

Bloody Hell - S5-E21

Continuity mistake: When Hannah is in her kitchen talking to her mum about Ted, one of the daffodils in the vase that Hannah's mum was preparing is suddenly no longer in its original position after Hannah takes a bite out of her apple.

The Melody Lingers On - S5-E23

Continuity mistake: When Ashley and Ted are in the kitchen talking about Allison's trial, Ashley's hands go from raised to down by her sides and back again between shots when she says "It's not a way to start a life together."
