Hawaii Five-0 (2010)

Ai no i ka 'ape he mane'o no ko ka nuku. - S9-E18

Continuity mistake: Jerry is briefing the team. He says that HPD processed "the van" and found... This is the first mention that HPD even found a van. They were looking with keys found on the victim to see if nearby vehicles would fit them, but there was no prior mention that they had found any vehicle at all. (00:08:50)

Hawaii Five-0 (2010)

E'ao lu'au a kualima - S9-E17

Factual error: A defibrillator is needed immediately. Adam runs to a storage closet and rummages around for a while, and finally finds a defibrillator deep under other things. This medical clinic is a public place. No one would ever bury an automated external defibrillator (AED) under other items in a storage room. AEDs would be visible and accessible for just such emergencies, as instructed on the devices themselves. (00:35:35)

E'ao lu'au a kualima - S9-E17

Other mistake: Lou Grover is searching an apartment when he comes across five silver-topped drug vials in a bag. He reaches in and takes four of them, and then declares he has found the drug dealer's inventory. Why did he leave one behind? (00:27:10)

Eye of Horus - S1-E6

Other mistake: A bomber leisurely throws a backpack into a trashcan, which explodes moments later. It does not seem to weigh much, and is easily handled by one hand without effort. Later, we learn that the bomb used about 100 pounds of ammonium nitrate. There could not have been 100 pounds of ammonium nitrate in that backpack considering how easily it was handled. (00:01:30)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Blood in the Water - S1-E19

Other mistake: A mayday call is received. It is shown on the moving map display as originating to starboard of the boat Magnum and Higgins are on. They promise to go help but turn to port. (00:01:50)

Whiskey Cavalier (2019)

When in Rome - S1-E3

Character mistake: Ana Ortiz, who plays Susan Sampson, is of Puerto Rican ancestry and speaks Spanish perfectly, without any accent. At the very end of this episode she is giving a toast to "a very successful mission" and then add "y muchos mas", which is supposed to mean "and many more." Except that in Spanish, missions are female, and she should have said "y muchas mas." (00:47:50)

When in Rome - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: Will and Frankie are in a boat. In the first wide shot the boat is going rather slowly, in the next shot they are speeding many times faster, and the shot is erratic, showing that the action was speeded up. (00:02:05)

Stupidity: A supposedly covert camera is placed in plain sight on a wall in a crowded room, with a prominent antenna showing, and a blinking blue light. (00:16:55)

Whiskey Cavalier (2019)

When in Rome - S1-E3

Character mistake: A van is shown with "Aureli Fallaci" on the side and front. Aureli is the plural of Aurelius, a proper name. Fallaci - the plural of fallacio - just means "fallacious or deceptive." So the letters on this surveillance truck mean nothing logical. It stands out like a sore thumb. Not what you want for a covert surveillance van. (00:15:15)

Suggested correction: Aureli and Fallici are just two common last names in Italy. (Like writer Oriana Fallaci) So the van can be from a catering company that uses the last names of company founders (very common in Italy). The fallaci meanings "failure" it's correct but no-one who see it on a Van in Italy will think about "failure" instead of a last name.

OK. I'll buy that. Thanks.

The Czech List - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: Will is trying to have dinner with a target. There are many people around and diners eating in the restaurant. When the "blonde" puts a gun to Will's head and a fight ensues, the restaurant is instantly deserted. Not only that, but every table is completely devoid of dishes, glasses, etc. It is like the diners were never there. (00:27:30)

The Czech List - S1-E2

Factual error: Will is asked by Jai to place his wrist watch - which is filled with explosives - against a wall. He does, and it somehow sticks to the vertical concrete wall. An adhesive back would have been noticed by Will, as it was against his skin on his wrist. Not to mention that an explosion in a contained space that small would have deafened them both, or worse.

War Games - S1-E8

Factual error: An Army Lieutenant comes in to announce a phone call. His fatigues have the top button buttoned. Not authorized. An exception is when a person is at the firing range. The top button can be buttoned while in firing position to prevent shell casings from dropping inside the shirt. (00:18:05)
