Law & Order

Impossible Dream - S21-E2

Other mistake: When Jack McCoy is discussing Nina Ellis changing her plea, next to the coat rack there is visible a diploma from the Univ. Of Michigan with the name "Jack McCoy." His legal name is John James McCoy. Any diploma would certainly have his legal name and not a nickname.

Show generally

Factual error: Detective Nina Cassady (who was introduced towards the end of Season 17) frequently wears casual tops that show far too much cleavage for a police officer on duty. If she showed up for duty dressed like that she would be sent home to change.

Show generally

Question: I don't remember if it was this show or another L&O, but there was an episode where a reporter was overseas at a military encampment, reporting on a war. While there, he explains the military's plans by drawing them in the sand. Shortly later, the encampment is attacked. How could the enemy figure out where the encampment was? The reporter never said where the location was at, only what the soldiers were planning.
