Continuity errors (TOS)

This is a listing of continuity errors in the original series.

Logic errors

At 00:19:08, when Adama, Apollo and Serina look to see the landram on Kobol's surface, the landram footage is flipped, as betrayed by the flipped number "4" on the side of the landram.

When Chameleon tells Starbuck to "hit the deck", Starbuck lands near the front of the Viper as Chamelon fires the Viper's lasers into the launch tubes. After the volley is fired, the next scene finds Starbuck jumping out of the launch tube, which is filled with smoke, as if he were running the whole time.
In Adama's ready room, when Chameleon is ordered to report to Siress Blassie on the Senior ship for rehabilitation, Apollo is first seen with his pistol belt. When the shot cuts to Apollo and Sheba around 00:48:04, Apollo is seen without the belt. The belt reappears only 12 seconds later as Starbuck and Chameleon walk by to leave the room.

The bell Serina uses in "Lost Planet of the Gods, Part II" is missing when Tigh approaches Starbuck and Apollo at the same table where the female warriors sat at. In addition, much of the furniture has changed.

In "The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part I", at 00:33:53, the viewer is shown the perspective from the left front window looking out from what we're to believe is the snowram. However, this is a serious gaffe, as the snowram does not have a hood and it appears that there have been other vehicles in the path they are traveling in, when clearly traveling to Death Point Plateau is inadvisable due to the di-ethene levels.

At 00:06:06, just as Apollo and Zac are launching on their patrol a Raider swoops in out of nowhere for a moment. This is likely footage from later in the episode.

At 00:31:01, when Starbuck destroys the lone Cylon Raider with the snowram's turret, the scene depicting the Raider's destruction is the same explosion scene that depicts the basestar's destruction over Carillon in "Saga of a Star World". Note the orange glowing background and, at ~00:31:01, the basestar's exterior which is the most noticeable at the top right of the screen.
At 00:40:34, a misplaced shot of three Tennas is placed after Tenna says that the Thetas prefer the term "Theta class life-forms" instead of clones. The shot of the three Tennas seen at 00:40:34 is taken from the second part of the episode, where Starbuck is dragged away by Boomer.

At 00:25:30, the scene where Stabuck is putting on his helmet is inserted here as the Viper launch to intercept the phalanx of Raiders, who are going to reengage Galactica a second time. However, Starbuck is on Arcta leading a strike force against the Cylon garrison on Mount Hekla.

Around 00:45:18, Adama orders "positive shield" and the launch of Vipers. The scene is archive footage is from "Saga of a Star World". This is telling due ot the fact that Adama sports a cape and Omega's being replaced by another officer. When the scene resumes around 00:45:54, Adama's cape suddenly disappears and Omega reappears, reporting that there's a fire in Alpha bay.
As Pegasus engages the Cylons, the scene where the core command offers wince and react to the explosions is too ripped from "Saga of a Star World". Note the caped Adama in the blue uniform with Colonel Tigh on core command.

In "Lost Planet of the Gods, Part II", the approach of the mining ship to the planet Kobol at ~00:18:20 is the same footage first seen in "Saga of a Star World", where the mining ship approaches Carillon.
In "The Living Legend, Part II", when Apollo and Starbuck begin strafing runs on the basestars to knock out their flank missle turrets, the turrets depicted are Galactica's laser turrets.
