NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service

Hiatus: Part 1 - S3-E23

Revealing mistake: When DiNozzo is watching the ship through the binoculars at the beginning, the film is run in reverse. The sailor smoking on the deck is the giveaway, as the smoke he's blowing is going into his mouth. (00:00:15)

Mind Games - S3-E3

Revealing mistake: When O'Neill starts taking Polaroid photos of Cassidy in the barn, Cassidy's blouse is properly buttoned up, but the second photo O'Neill takes shows Cassidy's blouse is being held together with a large safety pin, then the buttons are intact again. (00:39:10)

Super Grover

Untouchable - S3-E20

Revealing mistake: When the Lieutenant is explaining how her gun was in the victim's house, the camera pans behind Gibbs. Pay close attention and you can see a very faint shadow move across his back. Since we see there is nothing behind him on numerous occasions, it can only be part of the film crew. (00:18:20)

Untouchable - S3-E20

Revealing mistake: When Tony is winding the cat up in the carry basket, we see a side shot when the cat "attacks" him. However looking through the side of the cage, you can see the cat is nowhere in sight and therefore unable to attack Tony. (00:07:50)

Yankee White - S1-E1

Factual error: Air Force One landed in Wichita, Kansas. The local coroner claimed Jurisdiction for Wichita County. The city of Wichita, Kansas is in Sedgwick County, in southern Kansas. Wichita County, Kansas is in western Kansas, about 250 miles from the city of Wichita. (00:05:40)

Agent Afloat - S6-E2

Trivia: Season 6, "Agent Afloat": Maybe real aircraft carriers posing as fictional ones shouldn't let viewers see their registration numbers. When this episode aired, producers heard from several "carrier purists" complaining that CVN74 is the U.S.S. John C. Stennis, not the (non-existent) Seahawk.
