Under the Dome

Curtains - S1-E13

Continuity mistake: Near the start, the camera pans out to see the dome now covered in a layer of black. Outside of the dome you can see nice green fields, a small forest area, little houses and everything looks rosy. However a few episodes back the military launched a MOAB (mother of all bombs) and and the surrounding area was wiped out completely. (00:05:50)

Suggested correction: The entire left side of the dome is where the bomb blew up. Now if you watch back when the bomb hit the dome, picture the lake being to the north on the map. When Joe and Norrie were looking for Ange, and they were on the bench when the bomb hit, SW in the scene is a pretty close point to when they show the aerial shots of the dome.

The Red Door - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Big Jim communicates to the military commander at the dome, he writes on his notepad, and shows "Me and my son" to the commander; yet when he returns to his car and looks at it again, it's written quite differently. (00:24:05 - 00:24:45)

The Red Door - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Pauline enters the dome through the lake, her hair and whole body is wet, when she enters the house her hair is not only dry, it is professionally styled. Maybe they were out in the sun long enough for Pauline's hair to dry but I doubt if they met a stylist along the way.

Suggested correction: All 4 of them were equally wet getting out of the lake; and all 4 of them were dry when they next appeared in the story - which could have been an hour or more later, depending on how far they had to walk.

And they met a hair stylist along the way?

Manhunt - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Junior attempts to find a way out in the cement factory tunnels, he is angered at the fact the dome has cut clean through the factory as well. A few seconds later, Junior turns to the Dome and takes his hood off and yells at the dome. In the next frame with Junior, his hood is back up and he begins punching at the dome, his hood is then removed again. (00:23:25)

Outbreak - S1-E4

Blue on Blue - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: At the end of Outbreak, Big Jim finds Angie down in the bunker. Water is flooded everywhere (knee-deep), and Jim has on an orange buttoned long sleeve shirt. When this episode starts, at 2:15 the water is practically gone, and Big Jim is in a blue short-sleeved polo shirt. (00:02:15 - 00:40:15)

Suggested correction: Jim shuts the door when he discovers Angie, then he comes back the following day and that's why his shirt is different.

Black Ice - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: Hunter shows the military a sign which includes the word "castrophic" rather than catastrophic. Then after the kids question his loyalty he holds the sign up again, but this time the word is spelled correctly. (00:40:00 - 00:41:00)

Season 1 generally

Continuity mistake: On several occasions, time seems to pass very fast. People leave one place in the daytime, cross town, and arrive at night, even though it is said that the dome is about 10 miles in diameter. It would not take this long to cross town by car.

Legacy - S3-E10

Continuity mistake: When one of the Aktaion men is showing Norrie how to use a gun, the fingers of his left hand are resting on the rear sights, the very next shot his left hand is now around the gun with his fingers on the trigger guard and thumb on the hammer.
