Pua a'e la ka uwahi o ka moe - S9-E7
Factual error: A 1932 haulage receipt is shown on screen. It says Hawaii, HI. There was no such abbreviation used for Hawaii until June 1963. The territory was spelled out in full. In June 1963 it was HAW, and then changed to HI in October 1963 with the advent of ZIP codes. (00:38:50)
15th Nov 2018
Pua a'e la ka uwahi o ka moe - S9-E7
Factual error: The episode refers repeatedly to a brand new 1941 Rolls Royce Phantom II. The Phantom II was discontinued in 1936. It should have been a Phantom III.
15th Nov 2018
Pua a'e la ka uwahi o ka moe - S9-E7
Other mistake: This episode shows a newspaper article about a Rolls Royce Phantom involved in an accident/murder. The article specifies it is a black car with a red interior. When the car is dug up, it has a black interior. (00:37:45)

Pua a'e la ka uwahi o ka moe - S9-E7
Continuity mistake: McGarett starts to work on a case file on his kitchen table. It is evening. His wrist watch says 9:13. The scene dissolves several times as he yawns and finally falls asleep. The wrist watch now says 9:10. (00:09:45)

Pua a'e la ka uwahi o ka moe - S9-E7

Other mistake: A caption is misspelled towards the end - it says "cementario" when it should be "cementerio". (00:36:20)
11th Oct 2018
Other mistake: John is promoted to Oberst Gruppenfeuhrer and assumes the uniform of such. He is soon after promoted to interim Reich Marshal. And then he is subsequently fully promoted to Reich Marshal. But he continues to wear the rank insignia of an Oberst Gruppenfeuhrer.
Suggested correction: John does eventually put on the insignia befitting a Reichsmarschall. It's safe to assume he didn't immediately put it on, either because it took a short time to produce new insignia and send it to him (they wouldn't stock insignia for a rank only a few people hold), or because he was still only acting Reichsmarschall.
4th Oct 2018
Factual error: The briefer on the oil platform mission says the platform is 12 stories, and 80 million square feet. Doing the math, that makes it half a mile per side if completely square. It is nowhere near that size as shown. The largest oil rig in the world - Berkut in Russia's Far East - has a combined deck area of only 342,000 square feet. (00:13:35)
1st Oct 2018
Factual error: After a helicopter warning signal says pull up, Ethan pulls back on the cyclic control. All that would do is slow the helicopter by changing the blade angles. He should have pulled up on the collective between the seats. (01:56:15)
28th Sep 2018
Continuity mistake: Rick pulls up in a car to the right side of a helicopter, gets out, and gets in the helicopter. When the helicopter is shown taking off, there is no car next to it. (00:38:20)
28th Sep 2018
Factual error: When Magnum has his US Navy white uniform on, his Armed Forces Expeditionary Service Ribbon is shown upside down. And beards are not allowed. (00:41:05)
24th Sep 2018
Factual error: An ambulance is shown. This movie is supposed to take place in a latin country. But the ambulance says "Ambulance" in English, and worse, it also says "Riverside County." Also, the red cross emblems on the attendants' backs say "Comite" in Spanish, "International" in English, and "Geneve" in French. (00:28:55)
24th May 2018
The Cost of Doing Business - S1-E22
Factual error: A CH-47D Chinook helicopter is shown on the tarmac with N160BE in large white letters. This is a civilian registration number, not one for a military aircraft. A check with the FAA shows it is registered to Unical Aviation at City of Industry, California. (00:26:00)
10th May 2018
The King of the Delta Blues - S2-E6
Other mistake: We see a character get shot and falling forward with back arched, as if the shot came from behind. Moments later we see the shooter and the shot came from the front. (00:31:25)
10th May 2018
The King of the Delta Blues - S2-E6
Character mistake: "Are you going to send in the calvary?" is said twice. It should be "cavalry". (00:09:40)
10th May 2018
The King of the Delta Blues - S2-E6
Character mistake: A character tells a warrior, "Your 8 [o'clock]!" It is really the warrior's 2 o'clock. (00:16:25)
