Blinking Red Light - S4-E7

Factual error: When Jane is changing the tire on his Citroen DS 20 he uses a car-jack, but because of that car's hydropneumatic suspension you don't need one. (00:00:19)

Suggested correction: Good one! The DS 20 is a fantastic car and you CAN use the high-lift suspension to lift the car up to change the tire, but you still need the jack stand - supplied in the Citroen kit - to keep the tires off the ground for changing. Most DS owners find it much easier to just use a regular jack.

Green Thumb - S6-E10

Character mistake: When Kim is trying to convince Lisbon to help the FBI on their case, she says Jane stopped the ten-year reign of a mass murderer. Red John was a serial killer, which, by the FBI's definition, is a criminal behavior distinctly different from mass murder; he may have had a large number of victims, but he killed them either one or a couple at a time, with a cooling-off period in between, not all at once.
