NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service

The Good Samaritan - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: At the naval base Gibbs is talking about the Marine taking his bike up into the mountains and blasting country music. The person he is talking to has their arms down by their side until the camera changes. They are then behind his back. (00:22:00)

Enigma - S1-E15

Visible crew/equipment: When Agent Fornell follows Gibbs for a private chat (in the elevator) there's an overhead long shot of Caitlin, Tony, and Fornell's two agents. It then cuts to a shot facing Caitlin, and we can see the white mat taped to the floor with black tape (which was not in the previous shot), at the bottom of the screen. (00:22:50)

Bete Noire - S1-E16

Visible crew/equipment: When Gerald starts to open the body bag, the film crew are reflected in the fridge door behind him. They are blurry but distinguishable by the fact the shapes move when no-one else does. (00:01:05)

Bete Noire - S1-E16

Character mistake: Ari tells Ducky and Gerald that if they lie or he suspects them of lying, he will shoot them in a ball-and-socket joint. Ari later shoots Gerald in the shoulder and mentions that next time it would be his knee. The knee is not a ball-and-socket joint. It is a hinge joint. The only other ball-and-socket joint in the human body is located in the hip. Ari is an educated Doctor and should know the difference. (00:24:00)

The Truth Is Out There - S1-E17

Character mistake: Gibbs and Ducky are in Autopsy, with Ducky describing lower-leg injuries of a deceased Petty Officer. The two bones in the lower leg are the tibia and the fibula; however, Ducky, a doctor with decades of experience, referred to the injuries as fractures of the "tibia" and "fibia." (00:13:05)

The Truth Is Out There - S1-E17

Visible crew/equipment: During the joint interrogation of all four POS, in at least three shots facing the one-way mirror the reflections of the camera, the camera operator, and another crew member can be seen on that mirror. One example is when Gibbs tells Wong that the tape isn't his. (00:40:00)

UnSEALeD - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: When Kate is tied up, we see her gagged with a neat gag. Camera changes and now there are two loose ends by her face. Camera changes again and it's back to a neat gag. (00:12:40)

Yankee White - S1-E1

Gibbs: I heard you quit, Agent Todd.
Kate Todd: Happy news travels fast. Yes, I resigned. It was the right thing to do.
Gibbs: Yep. Pull that crap at NCIS, I won't give you a chance to resign.
Kate Todd: Is that a job offer?
