The Scholar - S1-E22

Visible crew/equipment: After Olivia and Esther leave for the bus to Richmond, when it cuts to Mary Ellen telling everyone that Erin isn't feeling well and she can't talk, the boom mic pops into view at the bottom of the screen, towards the right. (00:12:00)

The Scholar - S1-E22

Visible crew/equipment: After Elizabeth tells her parents that she's sorry about her fib, when Olivia picks her up and carries her up the stairs, at the right side of the screen in the background we see lighting equipment and a hanging yellow cable, and in the foreground at the top right corner we see a bit of the barndoor set lighting.

The Scholar - S1-E22

Visible crew/equipment: While Verdie and John-Boy are in front of Godsey's, when the bus drives towards the camera the reflections of crew members, including one wearing a bright red sweatshirt, are visible on the windshield. Then as Verdie steps up onto the bus, the reflection of equipment and a crew member wearing sunglasses are visible to the left of the doorway. (00:47:25)

The Heartbreaker - S5-E21

Factual error: When Elizabeth asks Zeb how Vanessa can be happy, Zeb has his old catalog with a bunch of flower seed packets on his lap, and as they both hold up the packets, particularly Elizabeth, the modern Universal Product Codes are at the back of the packets. The UPC did not exist until many years later. (00:10:05)

The Unthinkable - S8-E15

Trivia: While John is reading the newspaper funnies to John Curtis, we hear Erin and Mary Ellen come home, so John puts the folded newspaper down on the couch. And as the newspaper lies on the couch, we can see the large white adhesive label with typewritten sentences adhered to the center of the funnies page. Presumably, these are the actor's lines as he was reading quite animatedly to the toddler (sweet moment). (00:06:25)
