10 Continuity Errors In Supergirl
DC’s Supergirl has made for a very entertaining show, but some of the continuity errors are hard to ignore…

We’re more than halfway through the fifth season of CW’s Supergirl, the popular spinoff featuring the heroic exploits of Superman’s cousin, Kara Danvers (Melissa Benoist). Be honest, do you have any idea of where the season 5 finale is headed?
Us either. But as anticipate how the season will end over the final five episodes, how about we look back with a ruthless eye for detail? After all, Supergirl may be omnipotent, but she cannot fend off the spate of continuity errors that plague any and every TV show/film under the sun. Don’t believe it?
10 Disappearing Dust (S1E1)
The last thing one wants to see in a pilot episode is a bald continuity error, and yet that’s precisely the case with the premiere episode of Supergirl.
The episode functions to introduce us to Kara Zor-El, Superman’s cousin who has been brought in by the Danvers family. As she learns of her new superpowers and trains to use them, Kara finds herself facing off with Vartox. While sparring, Kara uses her heat vision to attack Vartox, leaving her with a mound of dust on her suit. However, the moment she stands up, the dust is gone.
9 Disappearing Donuts (S1E15)
During the inaugural season of Supergirl, a pretty noticeable continuity error can be spotted involving a pair of delicious donuts.
In her attempt to coax Kara to flee the Fortress of Solitude and return to the Department of Extranormal Operations (DEO), Alex brings her sister a box of donuts. Look closely and you’ll notice that Kara grabs two donuts and lays them on her plate. In the next shot, only one donut is present. In the following shot, both donuts can be seen!
8 Missing Mics (S1E16)
In the episode called Falling, Kara is turned into a vindictively violent person when under the influence of Red Kryptonite. When Cat (Calista Flockhart) goes on a talk show to discuss Supergirl, the cracks really begin to show.
Pay attention during the talk show scene and you’ll notice a series of continuity blunders. While speaking with the host of The Talk, the microphone on Cat’s collar appears, disappears, and reappears several times throughout the scene.
7 Drinking Glasses (S2E6)
In the Changing episode of Season 2, Mike and Kara share a discussion in the alien bar over Mike’s inability to control his powers. In proving the opposite, a continuity mistake can be found.
As Mike shatters the beer glass, there is no other glass seen on the table. However, in the very next shot, an unbroken drinking glass suddenly appears at the edge of the table. In the very next shot, the glass is once again missing. We know the episode is called Changing, but that’s a bit much!
6 Portal (S2E9)
In the episode Supergirl Lives directed by Kevin Smith, there is a glaring continuity error found just as Kara and Winn near a time portal.
Just as Kara and Winn are evading the alien quarters, they dash their way toward the time portal. Just as Winn activates the portal, he immediately jumps through the hole. However, moments later we see Kara receive help from a kind alien, we see Winn standing behind Kara once again. We get that the portal facilitates time travel, but he couldn’t be in two spots simultaneously.
5 Handcuffs (S2E19)
In the season 2 episode Alex, in which Supergirl and Maggie (Floriana Lima) attempt to rescue a kidnapped Alex, a pretty blatant continuity involving handcuffs error can be spotted.
When J’onn J’onzz (David Harewood) infiltrates the mind of Rick Malverne (David Hoflin), Rick is wearing handcuffs. As soon as Rick realizes J’onn is tricking him into thinking he’s his dad, Rick looks down at his watch to declare they have less than 24 hours left to survive. When he looks down at the watch, the cuffs are completely gone!
4 Dry Clothing (S2E19)
A second overt continuity error can be spotted in the 19th episode of season 2. Unless, of course, one of Supergirl’s powers includes instantly blow-drying entire wardrobes!
As alluded to, the plot of the episode concerns the rescue of Alex, who has been kidnapped. Well, when Alex finally escapes the water tank in which she’s been held captive, she does so with soaking wet clothes on. But in the very next shots of Maggie consoling Alex in her arms, Alex’s clothes are suddenly dry as the desert air.
3 Gravity-Defying Juice (S3E6)
In the episode entitled Midvale, Kara and her sister Alex return to their hometown for some much need rest and relaxation. But what is supposed to be a peaceful retreat turns into a painful memorial on a friend’s childhood death.
As for the continuity error, it comes when the gang shares lunch in a cafeteria. Just as Kenny is about to sit beside Kara during lunch, a juice-box on his tray is seen laying on its side. But in the very next shot, the juice-box is standing upright on the tray, despite nobody touching it.
2 Sketchy Sketches (S3E22)
In the penultimate chapter of season 3, Make it Reign, a distracting continuity mistake can be seen in regards to one of Winn’s sketches.
Indeed, as Supergirl and crew set out to thwart Selena’s scheme to destroy Earth, Winn begins constructing designs for a new shield. But if you look closely, the design of the shield alters quite drastically between shots. From the moment he begins drawing to the moment he shows his friend the result, the entire geometry of the shield has changed.
1 Vanishing Arrows (S5E9)
Oliver Queen, aka The Green Arrow, is known for making enemies disappear in a quick hurry. He’s not known for making his trusty quiver of weapons disappear in kind!
And yet, during the ninth frame of season 5, Arrow does precisely this. At the end of the show, Arrow makes a stand with a quiver brimming with arrows. However, as soon as a demon sneaks up and knocks Oliver down, his bounty of arrows suddenly vanishes. No, they don’t spill to floor as you might think, they completely disappear!
