MISTAKES/GOOFS

FAKE: When Adriana and Chris pick up Meadow from school you can clearly see when the SUV is shot from the outside Drea De Matteo is not behind the wheel but her stunt double is, this is also visible because Drea in the close up shots is wearing sun glasses and in the far shots the stunt double is not.
CONT: When Tony and Meadow returns from the University roundabout, we have seen the two of them inside and outside the silver sedan several times, but when we see them coming up the driveway to the Soprano residence, they are driving a red pickup.
CREW: The boom is reflected in the mirror when Chris questions Tony's leadership at the Bing.
FAKE: When Dr. Melfi and her friend are being followed by the cops, they pass the same Gulf gas station twice.
