Goofs

Just after shooting at Mordechai with Ed and Harry filming behind them, Sam and Dean walk off looking around for the spirit. While the camera focuses on Ed and Harry talking about their video footage, someone's shoulder comes on screen from the right. Sam had headed left off-screen and Dean went through a door on-screen, so it could only be a film crew member.

[Dean pulls it again, laughs; Sam glares]
Dean Winchester: C'mon man, you need more laughter in your life, you know, you're way too tense.

You can see almost half of a camera man's body, still a good ep though.
