Sex and the City (1998)

Sophomore Jinx - S1-E6

Character mistake: At the end of the episode, Abby Carmichael says that professor Rousseau will be convicted of three class-A felonies, with a term of a year each. According to NY state laws, three class-A felonies would lead to the death penalty; Abby meant to say three class-A misdemeanors.

Guitar Hero World Tour

Trivia: The bass guitar track of "Love Me Two Times" was created, as a bass track, specifically for the game. While the music in the game does exist on Strange Days, The Doors didn't have a bass player, so it was played by Robby Krieger on his guitar's bass strings.

The Time Has Come Today - S4-E25

Factual error: The diary that Brenda finds has a Precious Moments figure on the cover. Wendy, the character who owned it, wrote it between January 1968 (an entry mentions her new year's resolution) and August 1969 (when she attended Woodstock), but the company didn't exist under that name until the late 1980s.

Fringe (2008)

In Which We Meet Mr. Jones - S1-E7

Deliberate mistake: Dunham comments that she works for Homeland Security. While the FBI is under the jurisdiction of the Justice Department, she works as part of a special Homeland Security task force; so saying she works for DHS is an accurate statement.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Rosencrantz and Guildenstern meet the Players on the way to Elsinore, the sky around them changes. In the shots of the players, it's gray sky, possibly approaching dusk, and in the shots of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, it's pitch black. (00:13:20 - 00:14:40)

Hollywoodland (2006)

Factual error: George Reeves' role in From Here to Eternity wasn't diminished because of poor audience response. All of his scenes in that film were in the shooting script, and no other alternate prints are known to exist.
