End Game - S1-E7

Character mistake: During Beth's final match against Borgov, the position she stops to think about features her Queen on D3 and Bishop on E3; however, the staff member operating the spectator display board has these pieces on C3 and D3 respectively, and since this places her dark-squared Bishop on a light square, it's particularly confusing as to how he would have made such an error.

Show generally

Factual error: The series presents a biracial orphanage in Lexington, Kentucky in the late 1950s. Biracial orphanages did not exist in the American South in the 1950s or early 1960s.

Harry Beltik: Anger's a potent spice. A pinch wakes you up. Too much dulls your senses.
