The Great Good Place - S1-E1

Visible crew/equipment: When Dani hands the spider back to Miles after he uses it to scare Flora, just after she says "Including me" and the spider moves from Dani's hand to Miles' hand, a red tape marker can be seen on the ground right under Victoria Pedretti's left foot. (00:34:09)

Casual Person

The Pupil - S1-E2

Factual error: The British schoolroom has a UK flag at the front. American schools might do that; UK schools don't. There's even a little one on the teacher's desk.

The Two Faces, Part One - S1-E3

Factual error: The British policeman carries an American-style long baton on his belt. No British police force used batons before 1994 (the series is set in 1987), and batons of this pattern were never used in any case.
