Italian Ice - S2-E15
Revealing mistake: Magnum finds the unpleasant surprise of a large scratch on Robin's Ferrari. In close-up he runs his hand along the "bloody gouge", as Higgins later calls it, but it's a badly constructed prop; look at the turn signal, tiny and circular, nothing like the larger rectangular one of the car. (00:23:40)
24th May 2020
Revealing mistake: When Magnum screams to attract Rick's attention and you can see the whole yacht, you can spot the real driver of the boat on the flybridge, not lit. (00:41:00)
29th May 2020
Revealing mistake: The closing shot of the episode shows the lookout point platform where the suicide attempt happened...but also, below it, you can catch a glimpse of an additional platform, and a rope probably used for safety reasons as well. Needless to say, it was not featured in the dramatic shot of Holly looking down into the abyss. (00:46:55 - 00:47:40)

Two Birds of a Feather - S3-E19
Revealing mistake: Sam takes off from Van Nuys on his Super Stearman. We'll see him in Waco do all sort of acrobatics...but when he is first shown in the air right after talking with Richard Roundtree, you get a glimpse of another cockpit where the real pilot is, strapped with the safety belt that pokes in frame. (00:20:30)

Operation: Silent Night - S4-E10
Continuity mistake: TC is working by the tail rotor to fix the vibration. It's red with thin white stripes. By the end of the episode the rotor is the opposite; white with red stripes. (00:06:40 - 00:44:20)
5th Jun 2020
Continuity mistake: After the general is killed, there's a close-up on the figurines. Two are broken with just the feet left, the third, the rightmost, at the waist. When the second victim was murdered, we saw the killer break just its head off, the statue to the right of the halved one. The following shot shows the statues in that order, with the addition of third broken one in rightmost position. (00:34:15 - 00:42:15)
5th Jun 2020
Other mistake: After the third homicide, everyone gathers around the statuettes of the ten little Indians. Small problem, though. There are eleven little Indians. (00:42:20)
1st Jun 2020
Other mistake: In the summon screen, there is no translation for a constellation. Literally; look around and you will find one mislabelled with; No Translation.
1st Jun 2020
Other mistake: In the opening story of the Divine Cloth Shiryu event, Shiryu calls his son "Ryuho", but when he answers, the name in the box is "Shoryu." It keeps going back and forth during the dialogue.

15th May 2020
Continuity mistake: Higgins wants to show Magnum the rare Kudu buck in a book. Picking it up from the shelf, causes 3 other books to lean forward. In the close-up that follows, just one book is misplaced. (00:26:30)
6th May 2020
Visible crew/equipment: By the tidal pool, Magnum mentions ESP and says "I am not laughing", crouching down. Following his movement, a boom mike gets lower as well, thus getting in frame. (00:07:45)
7th May 2020
Visible crew/equipment: Driving through an alley in present day jogs the memory of Judge Caine. On the right of the frame though (and left side of the Ferrari) you can see a contraption where the camera car for the fade-out shot is mounted. (00:24:55)
7th May 2020
Visible crew/equipment: When Magnum bargains with TC the tune-up cost ("I tell you what I'll do"), you can spot the camera crew in Tom Selleck's shades. (00:19:40)
6th May 2020
The Ugliest Dog in Hawaii - S1-E8
Continuity mistake: The car chase from the gas station to the banana plantation happens with the mobsters driving two cars passing as one. The first car is a Ford Sedan with single headlights and front and back license plate 3F-2890, but the car speeding up in most of the shots driving through the long roads is a similar model with double headlights, different grill and without a front license plate (7F-7594 is the back one, but you may need to freeze-frame for this last detail). (00:21:30 - 00:22:25)
18th May 2020
Wave Goodbye - S2-E7
Visible crew/equipment: The Sarge and the rookie cop leave the bar, and Magnum, scorned, gets on the car to leave as well. In the left side mirror, clear as day, the reflection of a crew member's face. (00:32:15)
3rd May 2020
Thank Heaven for Little Girls and Big Ones Too - S1-E4
Visible crew/equipment: The art collecting felon spies Robin-2 leaving the premises and hops in his own car to go retrieve the painting. As he drives off, in one of the back windows a crew member is reflected in perfect detail. (00:40:10)
8th May 2020
All Roads Lead to Floyd - S1-E13
Continuity mistake: In close-up, Magnum hits the brake wearing Nike shoes with unmistakable logo. When he is checking out of the damage on the bumper, though, he's wearing different shoes, without the swoosh. (00:06:15 - 00:06:40)
15th May 2020
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, the titular character makes his way towards the club. He glances at the Ferrari parked there, its nose towards the club. A couple minutes later, Magnum drags him out of the club (no valets involved), and the Ferrari now is parked facing the opposite direction and with a total change of natural lights. (00:03:10 - 00:05:20)
