Batman: The Animated Series

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: Harvey gulps down the whole glass of water, but when Bruce tries to revive him after the chocolate mousse incident both glasses of water on the table are still full. (00:07:50)

Sammo

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: The dessert on the table changes completely in appearance from the start of the scene (Pamela bids her farewell) to the rest (Harvey does not feel good). (00:06:40)

Sammo

Pretty Poison - S1-E9

Continuity mistake: A newspaper clipping shows Bruce and Harvey shaking hands in front of a sign. The sign in the photo is different from the sign they were actually standing in front of. It says simply "Future site of Gotham Penitentiary" instead of "of the new Gotham Penitentiary." (00:02:10)

Sammo

Nothing to Fear - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: Batman got rid of the two goons through non-lethal falls, and he is about to face Scarecrow. Scarecrow has his escape planned; he has his right hand on a lever by the armrest...or in the next shot, on a lever above him. (00:18:05)

Sammo

Nothing to Fear - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: Both Batman and Scarecrow's henchmen are reading the same newspaper, one with a "University Museum Benefit Tonight" headline. The same headline though has a different layout; the words "museum" and "benefit" have bigger spacing in Bruce's copy. (00:10:15)

Sammo

Heart of Ice - S1-E3

Other mistake: When Batman is watching the security footage of Victor Fries' accident, at first Fries is addressing the camera directly which follows him and pans according to his movements and Ferris Boyle interrupting him, which would suggest a second person was in the room with a handheld camera. But after Ferris Boyle enters the room and orders Fries' experiment terminated, there are several cuts from various angles in the room suggesting surveillance cameras. The surveillance style footage also often conveniently cuts to the face of whichever person happens to be speaking or will cut to a certain angle in order to put emphasis on the action, all of which would require multiple mounted cameras and purposeful editing by either Boyle or one of his subordinates, which would be completely illogical since they don't want anyone to see the footage in the first place. (00:12:20 - 00:13:55)
