The Ringer - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: The shot from behind Ganon's throne shows a view of the walls at the base of his stair case. On the left there are some brown, thick stalagmites rising from the top of the wall on the left, and parts of them are drooping over the wall hanging down. You can also see on the right side of the screen that no such wall exists on that side and it opens up into a different path. When Ganon teleports down from his throne and is standing down there, the stalagmites and their hanging parts are gone. Also there is now an identical wall on the other side that was not there before. It also appears that the stairs coming down from his throne are more of a straight line shape now instead of fanning out. And lastly, the tall curved walls out in the middle are very tall, but in the other shot they are barely half the height they were compared to the other wall. (00:06:00)

Continuity mistake: Ganon teleports to his throne after killing the Moblins for their failure and it shows two column like structures sticking up from it. In this shot they appear shaped more like melted wax candles and droopy. When it cuts to a view from the other side after Ganon's close up, they look very different, with jagged edges like broken rocks. It also appears that his throne also becomes wider between shots with him having more room to sit. (00:05:45)

Continuity mistake: Ganon states that if he wants the Triforce of Wisdom, he's going to have to get it himself. At the end of the shot, he's looking straight ahead with his hand hovering below his face but not touching. It cuts to a further away shot and now his head is tilted down and his hand on his chin as he's thinking. (00:05:55)

Continuity mistake: When it shows the Evil Jar that the Moblins were zapped to, the one on the left is moving up and down quite a bit, with the center one barely moving and the one on the right not moving at all. It cuts to an overhead view and still shows that the one on the left is moving up and down suspended in the Jar. But then it cuts again to a view of the them as the middle one apologizes and suddenly the one on the left is now not moving at all any more. (00:05:20)

Continuity mistake: As Ganon zaps the Moblins inside the Evil Jar with lighting to destroy them, it cuts to a shot from a distance by Ganon's throne showing the Jar. In that shot, the artist seems to have forgotten to draw the podium holding the Triforce of Power under the Jar as it has vanished. (00:05:45)

Continuity mistake: After the Moblins apologize to Ganon for failing, it cuts to Ganon's eye as he states that they will be sorrier before he kills them, and it shows them reflected. For the most part, the reflection is pretty close to correct, with the right and left Moblins being flipped to opposite sides and facing like a reflection. However the Moblin in the center is not a reflection, and the tale tale sign is his feet. In both shots, his left foot is hanging down lower than his right. If it were a reflection it would show his right foot hanging down further in the second shot. (00:05:25)

Continuity mistake: While Ganon is teleporting around shouting in anger at the Moblins for failing to get the Triforce, you get a clear view of the Evil Jar in his lair. It has one face on it with some horns sticking out beside the head on each side of it with some distance between them. When Ganon strikes the Moblins inside with his lightning to kill them, the camera pans up showing the face again but now there are three faces on the jar, and the horns have gotten much thicker, coming out from right behind the head. Also the ears on the face change from being more elf like ears to resembling more like bat ears. (00:05:35)

Continuity mistake: As Ganon is teleporting around angry at the Moblins before he kills them, he stops just short of his giant evil jar and he has no shadow behind him, even though the Triforce of Power's podium casts a shadow. It cuts to a high angle and suddenly he has a long shadow behind him. (00:05:20)

Continuity mistake: As Zelda is walking out of the room after patting Link on the cheek, you see a view of him from behind and his hair is mostly behind his head. But then it cuts to a close up of his face and now the bottom of his hair is curled a bit around his neck. (00:05:10)

Continuity mistake: As Zelda is patting Link on the cheek saying she knew she could count on him, you see the door next to her but it's different, with it only having apparently one small red metal part in the middle of a brown wooden door. But in the next shot it goes back to how it was, with two large red metal pieces on the door with a small area of wood between them. (00:05:10)

Continuity mistake: Once Zelda walks into Link's room after slapping him, you get a good look at the debris and destruction supposedly caused by the fight. But through their entire conversation before Zelda leaves, the broken items and debris constantly change locations and amount. (00:04:15 - 00:05:10)

Continuity mistake: Once Zelda walks into Link's room and they start talking about the mess and the Moblin attack, during their entire conversation the two of them keep moving around to different spots in the room depending on the angle. Without themselves moving. Sometimes closer to the bed, sometimes closer to the closed window, sometimes facing the open window then the closed window, and Zelda's position to the stand the Triforce sits on is always different between shots. (00:04:15 - 00:05:10)

Continuity mistake: When Link is about to throw a Moblin off his shoulders, in that shot a chair is beside his window. About a minute later when Link charges up his sword and turns to fire at two of the Moblins, this chair is shown again and now the back of it is much taller than previously. Also in these same shots the horizontal bars on the window shutters grow much thicker. (00:02:25 - 00:03:25)

Continuity mistake: During the Moblin fight, Link jumps off the wall next to his bed and there is a green trunk that he gets his clothes off later. But as Zelda is walking into the room looking at the destruction, it completely vanishes. (00:03:20 - 00:04:10)

Continuity mistake: Link jumps through the air and grabs his sword and pillow mid air as they launch towards him. He lands and turns to face the other Moblins, and his left arm is extended out straight with the pillow in hand. But it cuts to an angle behind him and suddenly his elbow is bent with the pillow raised up. Also his position by the window changes, with it showing the window a bit behind him in one shot, then beside him slightly to the front in the next. In the next shot again after the Moblin charges him, the window is fully behind him. (00:02:35)

Continuity mistake: Link throws the Moblin off his shoulders towards his bed, and as it's flying through the air you get a quick shot of the table. It then cuts to a different angle just before the Moblin hits the bed, and now the table legs are suddenly much shorter, with it lower to the ground. Also the cup and pitcher on the table do the opposite and grow taller. (00:02:30)

Continuity mistake: After Link kicks the Moblin away that was holding his feet, the Moblin that was behind him climbs up onto his shoulders (for some stupid reason), and is sitting on him like that holding his head. In this position his right foot and both hands are visible but his left foot is not, indicating it's behind Link's arm or just on his shoulder, covered. But then it cuts to a wide angle from the same camera angle and suddenly the Moblin's left foot is visible below it's hand on Link's chest. (00:02:25)

Continuity mistake: After Link kicks the Moblin in the face that's holding his feet, there is a shot from behind as the other Moblin holds his arms and this shows Link's bed. In this shot, the sheet on his bed has turned from blue to brown, and also is draped over the side much more. (00:01:20 - 00:02:25)

Continuity mistake: Zelda has an amateur magician grow a large plant for her to use as a sling shot. He is standing beside Link as it grows and then suddenly disappears between shots. There was not enough time for him to have walked or run away. (00:11:40)

Trivia: In almost every other incarnation of the Legend of Zelda, Link is left handed using his sword in that one, (except the Wii version of Twilight Princes where everything is reversed). But in this TV show, he is right handed.

Chosen answer: Because they were technically the same show. The 65 episodes of Super Mario Brothers Super Show contained 52 episodes of Super Mario and 13 episodes of The Legend of Zelda.
