Bad Girls - Episode 6, season 2

Nikki Wade is in the library and Helen Stewart sneaks in to surprise her soon-to-be girlfriend. She grab hold of the book and says "This kind of book is too difficult for a loser like you". Nikki freaks out and Helen sits down. Nikki asks what Helen is doing there and has a most serious look on her face. No seconds later, at a camera angle from the front, she's suddenly smiling a huge smile. Hmmm?!?

Buffy the vampire slayer

I don't remember the episode name but it's one of the last of season 3. Faith has just woken up from her coma and is on the look-out for Buffy. They meet on campus and starts fighting. Faith flees and jumps over a 3 feet stone wall. When she does it wiggles. Can we all say FAKE! =)

Charmed

There's lots of errors in this serie (goddess forbid). The ones I remember the best are:

• Season 1, Episode 1 "Something Wicca This Way Comes ": Phoebe has arrived to the manor and the atmosphere is a bit tense. The sisters have tried to open the attic door for ages but with no luck. Bad weather rolls in and Phoebe thinks she hears sounds from the attic. She goes up there and feel the door. Locked. She decides that it's nothing and turns around. The door opens. She stares confused at the open door, raises her hand and flashes the room with a flash light. The camera angle changes from Phoebes back to show her from the front. Surprise. Her right hand holding the flashlight is still close to her side. She raises it and flash the room with the flash light. Stupid.


• Season 1, Episode 10 "Wicca Envy": During the scene where Piper and Phoebe are about to break out Prue from jail, a guard is standing inside by the door looking at a noticeboard. He turns his head to see who opens the door and Piper freezes him along with the rest of the people inside. The camera switches angle, opposite of before, and the guard by the door is all of a sudden staring at the noticeboard on the wall.
  
  In that same episode, during the "final battle", Piper freezes Hannah, who has shifted into a panther and jumped mid air to attack. Rex is standing behind them with a lantern in his hand. It's only slightly held in front of him, about hip-high. When Prue moves him with her telekinetic ability, he's all of a sudden holding the lantern with his arm outstretched infront of him. Dead men can't walk and frozen people shouldn't be able to move.


• Season 4, Episode 17 "Saving Private Leo": During one of the scenes with the military ghosts, the smaller soldier is holding his hands together in front of his lower abdomen. A camera switch later they are suddenly behind his back.


• Season 5, Episode 3 "Siren Song": During the fight with the Siren in the hospital, she gets speared when one of the Halliwells throw a metal pole at her. She escapes and summons a demonic helper to heal her. She's bleeding. Now, when the demonic helper pulls the pole out of her the blood only covers the part of the pole that was in her, not the entire end of the pole.


• Season 6, Episode 7 "Soul Survivor": In a scene up at the attic, Paige is by the Book of Shadows flipping through it while talking about Faustian Deals with her sisters. At one point she stops to focus on discussing the current threat. The book has an entry on vampires showing. In a different shot it shows an entry about monkey totems. Next comes an entry that says something about "...urzon". All this happened without Paige flipping any pages at all! Impressive. She really does have magical powers (no, she didn't orb the pages).


• Season 6, Episode 18 "Spin City": In this episode, Chris has been infected by a demon spider and is not himself. The demon spider shows up and Chris takes her side in the fight. The potion ... is holding is blue. When ... throws it at the spider demon, Chris defends her by knocking the potion out of the way. It hits the floor and rolls into the hands of ..., who has been knocked cold onto the floor. The potion is at this point a golden colour. ... wakes up and throws the potion at the spider demon. The potion has at this point turned blue again.


• Season ??, Episode ?? "??": Prue decides to continue her hobby as a photographer. The sisters had been out chasing an invisible man acting like peoples inner voice. What he told them they believed, since they thought it was their own thoughts. Somewhere along the way Prue took a picture of a bridge where she'd been as a young girl. She thought of jumping off of it.
  In the end, after the vanquish of the bad guy, Prue decides to burn the photo. She puts it on the logs with image facing down. Camera angle: from inside the fireplace. When the angle changes to show her back, the image is suddenly facing the ceiling. How?

CSI - Episode 18, season 10 "Meat Jekyll"

In one scene, Langston is visiting Nate Haskell in jail. He holds a piece of paper in his hands. In the first shot, his right hand is on the right side of the paper. In the next, his hand has moved to the top of the paper. Then, miraculously, it has moved back to the right side a third shot later. I wish my hands were flexible like that.

Dexter

• Season 2, episode 11: After Dexter returns to the cabin to find James Doakes missing, Doakes returns under custody of two drug dealers on a mission to empty the cabin of the stashed cocaine. One of the drug dealers loads up Doakes' tied hands with six large packages of cocaine. During the next few camera shots the packages change position from somewhat neatly stacked on Doakes' arms to nearly dropping from his grip, to extremely neatly stacked on his arms, and then all over the place again, and again, and again... There is no way that could ever happen within 38 seconds of just standing still while the second drugdealer is pointing a machinegun at him. I can't imagine helping a man restack something in his arms if I hold him at gunpoint for fear of him attacking me.


• Season 3, episode 7: LaGuerta visits Ellen Wolf with a bottle of whisky. She puts two glasses on the table and, with the camera facing her, she starts pouring into the left glass. The camera angle changes to the back of her and she starts pouring into the other glass. When the camera changes back to frontal view, LaGuerta just finishes pouring into the left glass and moves over the the empty right glass.

Heroes - Season 2 Episode 7

Caitlin and Peter is captured in the future and forced to shower to get rid of potential infections due to the Virus. Caitlin covers her breasts with both arms. If she had been completely naked, as the barrels she's hiding behind indicate, she would at least keep one hand over her crotch. She is being cleaned up by other men.

L Word

• Season 3, episode 2: Carmen is in church doing her job as an assistant, sort of. She's carrying a folder bursting with papers and notes of different colours. When she walks from one end towards a table on the other end she has to step over something and in the process drops a couple of papers. ...and she doesn't pick them up! If I were in charge of something which included paperwork, I'd definitely pick them up to prevent chaos later on. What a sloppy lez! ;)


• Season 5, episode 9: It's the summer from hell and everyone is hot and bothered. Phyllis and Joyce is in Phyllis' office discussing her divorce and Joyce, her lawyer and former lover, is undressing to be able to stand the heat. The vest is gently thrown on the back of an armchair along with her tie. Her shirt is not so carefully thrown on the seat of the other armchair as she talks about Phyllis' husband being a 'whiney girl'. All this is seen from the back of Phyllis. The camera switch a few seconds later shows Phyllis from the front, agreeing with Joyce as Joyce once again throws her shirt on the second armchair. No wonder she was hot if she had that many shirts on.

Smallville

I have no idea what the episode is called or what season it is, but: in the episode where Lionel Luther has decided to give his son, Lex, electric shocks (he's in the mental hospital) the doctor places a rubber thing with a handle in Lex' mouth to prevent him from biting off his tongue. The handle is too big to miss. After the treatment the doctor removes the rubber bite thing, and some soft words, but also angry words later, Lex is shown from above ... and what do you know. The rubber thing with it's handle is back in his mouth. *smacks forehead* So dumb.

Twin Peaks

Episode 2, right at the beginning. Benjamin Horne is having dinner with his family when his brother, Jerry Horne, barges in after a trip to France and shares his new found love for brie baguettes. Benjamin gets to taste one. During the first bite, Benjamin holds it so that the bottom of the baguette is facing the room. One clip later the top side is facing the room and not a single bite indicates that Benjamin has flipped the baguette. Curious!
