SEAL Team picture

Tip of the Spear - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: Supposedly in Liberia, the team takeoff in a helicopter. However, when they take off, the camera reveals the airfield, where several general aviation aircraft are parked. This is highly unlikely to be in Liberia, also the night lights seem to be somewhere in Cali (perhaps LA)). (00:27:20)

Show generally

Revealing mistake: When the senator and his wife are trapped under the rubble, she is holding a burning candle, it looks like there are flames coming from her thumb. An obvious reflection off either the camera lens or that the candle is safely inside a glass tube so that she doesn't burn her hand.

Urutora sakusen dai ichi gô - S1-E2

Revealing mistake: The VTOL hits Bemular with two missiles the second time that Hayata makes him come out of the water. The second missile causes an explosion with the special effect applied in the wrong spot, a spot in the back of the monster that is practically the opposite of the direction in the line of shot.

Down Down Down - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: During the sequence with a crowd in front of the Gazette looking at the dummy on the stairs, there is a shot with the camera panning up (right after Kate arrives). Look in the crowd on the left side; a kid is following the movement of the camera on the crane instead of looking at the 'crime scene'. (00:11:50)

Drive - S1-E2

Revealing mistake: Multiple times when we see the speedometer of the minivan, the RPMs aren't moving. The car's shifter is also noticeably in park. This is obvious as its higher, whereas if were in drive, it would be lower. Even during the most intense moments, the RPMs never change. The car is obviously being towed by a camera vehicle.

Shooter picture

The Hunting Party - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: When the sniper is aiming at Swagger and the soldier through the window, a woman walks in and notices him. He shoots her and she falls. The problem is, he shoots at nothing. She simply turns her head and acts like she got hit. There's no indication a bullet even hit her.

Seekest Thou the Road - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When Agatha's apparent nemesis makes her grand entrance, blasting the front door open, the powerless witch gets thrown against the closet door. The face of Kathryn Hahn's stunt double is fully visible before the camera cuts away to show the fall. (00:30:45)
