The Man in the High Castle

The New Normal - S1-E5

Factual error: The kaishakunin decapitates the officer completely. Traditionally, the kaishakunin should perform dakikubi, leaving a small piece of flesh attached while severing the spinal cord and other parts of the neck so the head does not fly off. The kaishakunin in the show did not attempt to achieve this at all. (00:21:15)

These items include; modern phone numbers, web addresses for several companies and educational institutions, satellite dishes and American flags. (00:24:10)
