The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: After the Major Disaster fight, the scene changes to Carrol flipping through a photo album. She is holding the book and turning pages with her left hand, and has her head propped up on her right hand. It cuts to an over the shoulder view and she reaches down with her right hand to turn a page. It cuts back to in front of her and suddenly her right hand is propping up her head again. (00:13:15)

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Major Disaster gets a good hit on Green Lantern and smashes him into a wall with some large chunks of ice. Green Lantern leaves a hole in the wall, but none of the wall falls out and there are ice chunks all around him.

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: After Hal crashes the Batmobile/jet, Carrol and the reporter take off in a fast car towards the crash site. They are moving at racing speeds and there is no other vehicles around them as they zoom away from camera. But then they get to the crash site and suddenly there are two fire trucks driving beside her car and keeping up. They were not there a moment before, and a fire truck could not have caught up to a sports car going that speed. (00:07:25)

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Tattooed Man leaves the bank with two bags of money. He is shown standing on a concrete titled surface like a decorative sidewalk.

The Scorn of the Star Sapphire! - S3-E5

Plot hole: Van Gunther has the two rockets aimed at the Geneva Convention. They launch with Steve attached to one of them. Wonder Woman chases in her invisible jet and shoots down the other rocket. She then gets out and uses her crown like a boomerang to break the chains holding Steve to the second rocket and rescues him off it. She or her crown never touch the rocket, but it crashes into a mountain. She did nothing to it to disrupt its course towards the Geneva Arms Conference. There was nothing to make it crash or hit prematurely, and the sudden weight change of Steve falling off would not have been enough to cause it. (00:02:55)

Triumvirate of Terror! - S3-E8

Factual error: During the final fight in Lex's lair, Joker gives Batman a good smack with his large hammer. As is common in this show, when a good hit is delivered, a freeze frame is show with the figures moving in slow motion with a stylized colorful backdrop to add to the drama dynamics. But as Joker delivers this hit and this stylized shot is shown, the show cuts to some inmates in a prison cell watching the fight on TV. The same stylized shot is shown on their TV, where it would be show like that there, only to us. They would have just seen Joker hit Batman with the hammer and him fly off in real time with no stylized back drop or slow mo. (00:20:00)

Triumvirate of Terror! - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: After teleporting the villains and heroes to Lex's lair, Lex has his hands gripping a control panel podium in front of him. As Joker begins to speak, it cuts to a closer angle and suddenly Lex's arms change position and his hands are gripping the podium differently. (00:17:05)

Continuity mistake: During their fight, Cheetah slashes across Superman's chest, leaving 4 large gashes in his suit over his S symbol. Yet as Lex is teleporting them to his lair, the slash marks have disappeared and his suit is perfect. (00:13:10 - 00:16:55)

Triumvirate of Terror! - S3-E8

Plot hole: Just after Lex teleports into the Bat Cave, he marvels over how their tracking devices worked perfectly. However, they didn't have the plan to switch up nemeses until after they had their butts handed to them and retreated back to the Lex's lair. They never had the chance to put any tracers on the heroes, nor did they even have the idea to beforehand. (00:14:15)

Rise of the Blue Beetle! - S1-E1

Trivia: Near the beginning, when Paco is flipping through the stations, you see a stand-up comedian and he says "it's called The Aristocrats." This is the punchline to one of the world's dirtiest jokes. The closed caption (on the HBO MAX version) says "to get to the other side."
