Other mistake: When the two dollar bill engraving plates are being stolen from the Bureau of Printing and Engraving (in reality it's called Bureau of Engraving and Printing), in the closeup of the plates we see the obverse and reverse sides do not look like the images on real two dollar bills of that era (perhaps this was deliberate, but still an error).

Wonder Woman (1976)
Formula 407 - S1-E12
Other mistake: At the start, the episode's textbox reads, "Fort Frazier Ordnance Testing Facility" with correct spelling, but in the next shot the base's sign reads, "Fort Frazier Ordinance Testing Facility" when it should actually be "Ordnance."

Wonder Woman (1976)
Other mistake: When Diana and Etta have their picture taken by Wotan in disguise, Diana makes eye contact with Wotan and in the extreme closeup of Diana's eyes we see that Lynda Carter is wearing modern contact lenses under her eyeglasses.
21st Mar 2017
Wonder Woman (1976)
Other mistake: After Wotan's arrival on the Virginia beach, there are two closeups of Wonder Woman leaping into the air and the "boots" she's wearing aren't actually boots, they are shoes with the high boot part layered over them, and when she's on the beach she's wearing the flat boots.

Wonder Woman (1976)
Other mistake: In the two closeups of Steve's two dollar bill being held first by Steve and then by Diana, we can read "1963 A" and the name "Henry H. Fowler" Secretary of the Treasury during Lyndon Johnson's administration, as it appears under the red seal, even though this takes place in 1942.
21st Mar 2017
Wonder Woman (1976)
Other mistake: This takes place in 1942, but modern 1970s era cars can be seen behind Wonder Woman and Steve when the attendants are loading Benson into the ambulance. Then again later, when The Falcon's partner creates a diversion and is being shot at by the guard.

Wonder Woman (1976)
The Feminum Mystique: Part 2 - S1-E6
Other mistake: When Captain Radl is parachuting into the water, the episode's onscreen textbox reads, "Elsewhere in the Carribean, a Nazi rendezvous is occuring," but the proper spelling of the words are "Caribbean" and "occurring."

Wonder Woman (1976)
The Feminum Mystique: Part 2 - S1-E6
Other mistake: This takes place during WWII, but during scenes revolving around the XPJ-1 at Aldridge Field, there are modern 1970s vehicles which can be seen all over the airfield in the background of some shots.
21st Mar 2017
Wonder Woman (1976)
The Feminum Mystique: Part 2 - S1-E6
Other mistake: On Paradise Island, while the Nazis are distracted by the quarreling Amazons in the water, when Wonder Woman jumps and lands beside Queen Hippolyta her boots are flat, but the heels soon appear when she rushes off with the bracelets. This happens again later, when Wonder Woman chases after the XPJ-1 on the runway.

The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: During the scenes at Elmo's shop, where Aunt Bee's pictures are developed, it's obvious that this is actually Emmett's Fix-It Shop. We can see the window of the shop next door through Elmo's doorway, and recognize it as the store next door to Emmett's shop which has "Furniture, New and Used" on its front window.

The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: Twice during the episode the actor who plays Floyd is replaced by his body double. The first time is when Floyd's driving to and away from Wally's station in the earlier scene, and the second is later, when Aunt Bee leaves Floyd's shop and we see Floyd stand up through the window.
13th Feb 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: Right before Aunt Bee wins the five dollar prize at Wally's station she talks about how she's never won anything, not even the church raffle, and right after she wins she excitedly waves the five dollar bill and says, "I've never won anything before in my life!" However, in season 6 episode "Aunt Bee on TV" the man from the IRS stated that Aunt Bee had won $4,850 worth of prizes on the game show, and even though she sold most of her prizes she kept two of them. So her statement makes no sense even for Aunt Bee.

The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
The Statue - S7-E23
Other mistake: At the end of the ceremony, when Aunt Bee finally unveils the life-size statue of Seth Taylor the prop jiggles (presumably it's plastic) back and forth on the base, even though we know it's carved out of a block of granite (stated by Howard earlier in the episode) by a stonemason. (00:05:00 - 00:22:55)
13th Feb 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Andy's Old Girlfriend - S7-E20
Other mistake: At the cabin, when Andy and Alice are fixing breakfast at the kitchen counter, note the cereal box's brand name is covered (presumably painted), which is still recognizable as "Post Toasties." (Andy Griffith even did commercials for this specific cereal). (00:20:00)
13th Feb 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
A Visit to Barney Fife - S7-E18
Other mistake: After Andy and Barney hear on the radio that another supermarket has been robbed they head over there, and in the shots at the supermarket note that many of the products on the shelves have their brand names covered with tape or scribbled over. For example, boxes of "Mrs. Cubbison's" stuffing/dressing and "Sunshine Cheez-It" are covered with tape. (00:16:40)
13th Feb 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: Twice during the episode there's a brick wall adjacent to the grocery store which should not be there. First when Clara walks down the street toward Floyd, then later when Andy and Opie also walk down the street toward Floyd. (Shot in the studio not backlot). (00:02:05 - 00:16:55)
7th Feb 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
The Barbershop Quartet - S7-E3
Other mistake: The end credits list actor Burt Mustin as playing a character named "Jud", but while Andy and the rest are waiting for Howard to show up for practice, Andy, Wally, and Aunt Bee all use Burt Mustin's real name "Burt" instead of his character's name, "Jud." Then during the rest of the episode Andy still calls him "Burt" a few more times. (00:02:00)
7th Feb 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: The end credits list actor Burt Mustin as playing a character named "Jud", but after Howard's introduction to everyone in The Lodge, when Andy and Howard are saying goodbye to all the members, Andy says, "See ya, Burt" to actor Burt Mustin. Then at the start of the voting scene even the subtitles read "Burt" instead of "Jud." (00:09:15 - 00:12:55)
24th Jan 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: While Andy and Helen are rearranging everything in the squad car's trunk to make it all fit, Helen picks up the large thermos and written on its bottom we see "Reggie personal." Reggie Smith was property master on set. (00:12:45)
24th Jan 2017
The Andy Griffith Show (1960)
Other mistake: During the scenes at Goober's filling station we can see a few brand names covered. For example, the "Chew Mail Pouch Tobacco" wall thermometer sign has its brand name "Mail Pouch" covered with black tape, and all the yellow "Pennzoil" cans have half the letters of their brand name painted yellow, so all the cans read "en zo."
