Buried - S2-E7

Other mistake: When Sara's dad is found dead, Sarah pulled him, so his body dropped on the floor with his key, but this key is different from the other square key that they used it to open his private locker. (00:16:30)

Manhunt - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: When 5 of the escapees are heading to Oswego to get the supplies and Michael tells Lincoln to turn right, you can see it isn't a real car as the steering wheel doesn't turn - Lincoln just moves his hand along the wheel. Watch the grooves and you will see. (00:18:50)

Dirt Nap - S3-E10

Continuity mistake: Lechero regains command of the prison and dumps the bodies of the two guys off the ledge. His face goes from being clean to full of sand to clean in three short shots. (00:36:20)

Bad Blood - S2-E17

Factual error: When Mahone is at MSP International he gets the call about C-Note being in the diner in Benson, MN and says to "fax Fanklin's mugshot to every hospital in southeastern Minnesota." Benson is in West-Central Minnesota, almost 3 hours from Minneapolis, definitely not southeastern MN. (00:03:50)

Allen - S1-E2

Other mistake: When T-bag catches Michael in his cell looking for the Allen key, he says, 'What are you doing in my cell?' but he doesn't have his usual southern accent. (00:20:00)

Allen - S1-E2

Otis - S2-E2

Character mistake: In the newspaper article that Lincoln reads about LJ's hearing, his surname is punctuated incorrectly. It reads "Burrow's" instead of "Burrows'." (00:03:55)

Allen - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: After the gas canisters are thrown into the rabble, Michael runs back up into his cell and puts his hands on the bunk, they are clean. The shot cuts to T-bag yelling up at him and when the shot goes back to Michael, his hands are covered in blood. (00:32:30)

Suggested correction: When Michael stumbles into his cell and leans against the wall, there are blood trails over his hands. He then stumbles against the bed, and his hands are out of shot but his wrists are still visible. Then, when he falls back against the wall, his hands are visible with the blood trails.

Sleight of Hand - S1-E10

Factual error: They have made it a point that Scofield is incarcerated in a prison in Illinois, and even gets married so he can be eligible for conjugal visits during his stay so he can pass information or items to his "wife" or she to him. In Illinois, conjugal visits aren't allowed. Only something like six states allow them, and this isn't one of them. Totally a plot hole, and since this thing was so carefully planned out, I would think he would run across this information ahead of time.

Suggested correction: Actually it would be. 6 hours by plane is the same as New York to London. 6 hours on foot wouldn't even get to state lines. So the circle is a very close representation on how far they could go.

Greatness Achieved - S4-E9

Question: How does Don Self know that Miriam should work at Gate when nobody knew about the location of Scylla? Or Whistler wanting to work there?

Answer: Don Self actually worked with Whistler before he died. And Whistler with the bird book actually knew where Scylla was.

Answer: Because Miriam was an agent.

But that still doesn't make sense because nobody knew where Scylla was.

He knew that GATE was mentioned in the bird book. He worked with Whistler and had probably discussed GATE with him, so it was clear enough that it was a big part of the plan to get Scylla. Sending an agent to work there in any position would've been a big help for intel, as she could assess the environment and perhaps uncover what Whistler's plan was. He didn't anticipate T-bag's hijacking of the plan, hence why he sent Miriam and not a more combat-trained agent. She was only there for information.
