The Americans picture

Glanders - S4-E1

Other mistake: The recap of Episode 4.1 has a scene that hasn't been shown until episode 4.2 or 4.3 where the FBI neighbor gets hold of Jennings in his garage to confront him on his alleged affair with his wife. The similar issue with another episode is seen in episode 3.12 or 3.13. (01:00:00)

Chucky picture

Goin' to the Chapel - S2-E7

Other mistake: When doll-Jennifer is hit by the truck, we see a close-up of a puddle of blood reaching Tiffany's feet, but the doll's body is a solid 10-or-so feet away and is in pieces. There's no way it'd make a puddle like that, that would reach Tiffany's so quickly.

The Chameleon - S1-E31

Other mistake: Mace's chest camera sends images from impossible angles - including several that include Mace himself. At the end, his superiors watch him from a camera that's obviously mounted in a tree and not on his person. Yet when Mace smashes his chest camera, the transmission goes dead anyway. (00:48:00)

Inspector Kenmochi the Murderer File 4 - S1-E22

Other mistake: When Kindaichi shows his phone with the incriminating evidence, the phone's charge is at 60%, exactly the same charge it had last time we saw the same phone screenshot for the same purpose in the previous episode. Mere minutes later for the bathtub demonstration Miyuki calls him and the phone is charged at 80%. (00:07:50)

FBI (2018)

FBI picture

Undisclosed - S2-E7

Other mistake: Toward the end of the episode the perpetrator is corned by the FBI. He steps backwards from the curb and is killed instantly by a garage truck moving at a high rate of speed. In the following scene the garbage truck is shown just a few steps beyond the scene just behind a parked car. The truck was going very fast when it killed the perp and could not have stopped so quickly. Further it would not have been going that fast in a curb lane with a parked vehicle right ahead of it.

Crazy for You - S3-E7

Other mistake: On the W.A.A.K. Bloggers internet page, it says she has 9 children. It lists how each child helps in the family but talks about what 10 children do, not 9. Veronica age 14, Cynthia age 13, John age 12, Kayla age 10, Matthew age 7, Elizabeth age 6, Caroline, Mickey, Rachel age 4, and Susie. (00:08:11)

The Good Wife picture

After the Fall - S3-E16

Other mistake: Regarding the suicide of Karen Anderson, her boyfriend explains that Karen hadn't been studying with him because she wanted to be in the sun all day, but all the footage of the bridge she jumped from shows it to have been a mostly overcast, gray day. The first shot of the bridge is at the very beginning of the episode and is repeated several times throughout.

Warehouse 13 picture

All the Time in the World - S4-E19

Other mistake: Charlotte enters the Duchess' bedroom, walks past Pete & Myka, with her hand behind her back, hiding something. She stands in front of them, trained security people; neither of them notice the gun in her hand (which is visible to the camera, so it is not hidden via artifact), before she shoots her husband.

Veronica Mars picture

Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang - S2-E3

Other mistake: When Beaver takes the iPod/camera, the pictures are left on Veronica's laptop. This would only be possible if the pictures were copied onto the computer. It would have taken a considerable amount of time for all of the two thousand photos to be copied. There is the possibility that Beaver copied the three or so photos of Logan, but considering his anger, that's hardly something that he would take the time to do.

Ratched picture

Got No Strings - S1-E6

Other mistake: Edmund and Dolly make love in the barn completely naked. Yet the next shot is morning and Dolly is suddenly wearing a camisole after they've awakened. Which wouldn't be the case after falling asleep after sex They'd both still be nude.
