CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

Dead Doll (2) - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: After Natalie lowers the car onto Sara Sidle we know her right arm is pinned and she cannot move it. When Sara hears the coyotes she starts to look around and see where they are coming from. At one point we can see Sara with her right arm inside the crashed vehicle. (00:22:25)

Dead Doll (2) - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: In episode 8-1 Dead Doll: When Warick finds the zip-tie in the trunk it is not looped, when he holds it up for Grissom it is looped. He would not have looped it himself.

Show generally

Factual error: In a number of episodes people are shown eating and drinking in the laboratories. For instance, in "Miss Willows' Regrets" Nick and Greg are seen eating fried chicken in the lab, and in "Overload" Sara eats a sandwich while watching Grissom experiment with her deli pickle. There are other examples. No reputable laboratory (which this is supposed to be) would allow its staff to eat or drink while in the lab. It is basic scientific protocol to prevent contamination of samples or the person picking up toxins on their food.

Sounds of Silence - S1-E20

Trivia: For those who don't (or can't) read American Sign Language, at the end of the episode, Grissom says to Dr. Gilbet is that his mother lost her hearing when she was eight years old. He once asked her what is it like to be deaf, and she told Grissom (who loved to swim) that it was like being underwater. She also taught him that being deaf does not make one inferior to others. Dr. Gilbert then replies that she teaches her students the same lesson.

Suckers - S4-E13

Question: After finding out that Ty was committing insurance fraud, why did Grissom walk away instead of arresting him?

Answer: He doesn't have the authority to arrest him - when anyone is arrested in the show, a police officer does it. Also he tells Ty that he is going to be submitting his case findings to Ty's insurance company, who would no doubt contact the IRS, who then would have him arrested for fraud etc.
