S.W.A.T. (2017)

Octane - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: When Street sits in the car at the end, the engine is audible despite the tachometer being at zero rpm. Also, the warning lights inside the tachometer indicate that only the ignition is actually on.

Factual error: When the teacher announces they are going to Prague, they basically walk around the corner to a waiting bus. This is impossible because the part of Venice they are in is inaccessible to motor vehicles.

The Flash (2014)

The Runaway Dinosaur - S2-E21

Character mistake: The way Henry takes Barry's blood pressure, he will not get any results. Neither the blood pressure cuff nor the stethoscope work reliably through clothing. As a doctor, he should know how to do it right.

Factual error: In the aerial shot of the Pentagon the caption reads "Washington, D.C." The Pentagon is in Arlington County, Virginia, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C.

Hawaii Five-0 (2010)

Pono Kaulike - S5-E18

Character mistake: After being asked in class, Max refers to what he does as a "vivisection of a once-living organism", which in itself is a contradiction because vivisections are performed on living organisms. What Max does is called dissection, or more specifically autopsy, because he does it to determine the cause of death.

Pa Make Loa - S2-E21

Continuity mistake: When he picks up the NCIS agents at the airfield, Danny drives his car up behind the plane and parks very close to it. As the three go back to his car however, it is parked at least fifty meters away and parallel to the plane.

Hawaii Five-0 (2010)

I Helu Pu - S2-E16

Character mistake: Owing to a common misconception, several people in the episode claim that the consulate is Russian soil. Foreign diplomatic missions are awarded special privileges, but they are not considered sovereign territory of the represented state.

He Kane Hewa'ole - S1-E14

Castle (2009)

Hunt - S5-E16

Character mistake: Beckett identifies the area given for the Skype call as the whole city of Paris. It's hard to believe that Beckett knows the area of a foreign city by heart, the problem is also that she is wrong. Paris actually has an area of about 105 kmĀ² (41 sq mi).

Minions (2015)

Factual error: When Kevin, Stuart and Bob are honored at the end of the movie in front of Buckingham Palace, the Union Jack can be seen flying on top of it. The only flag displayed on Buckingham Palace at that time was the Royal Standard, and only when the regent was in residence.

The Recollection Dissipation - S10-E20

Trivia: When Amy sings "Soft Kitty" in German she more or less translates it literally. The German dubbed version of the show uses completely different lyrics for its rendition instead of just translating the original version.

Bull (2016)

Free Fall - S1-E16

Factual error: Almost all the people being shown skydiving have no experience doing it, but the instructor allows them to jump out of the plane unassisted after only giving a theoretic introduction into the subject. First time skydivers are always assisted in some fashion, usually through a tandem-jump or a parachute opened by a line attached to the plane.

Pacific Rim (2013)

Factual error: When the fisherman in the beginning locates the supposed island on the radar he says it's three miles away. The Kaiju (island) then crosses the distance to the boat in about ten seconds. This would mean that the Kaiju swims at a whopping 1080mph (1738 kph) which equates to about Mach 1.4.

Castle (2009)

Dead Red - S8-E11

Character mistake: Castle claims that they are technically standing on Russian soil inside the consulate. Contrary to popular belief foreign diplomatic missions, while being afforded special privileges (ie. Diplomatic immunity), are not considered sovereign territory of the represented state. Because of that Castle and Beckett are in fact on U.S. soil.
