CSI: Crime Scene Investigation mistake picture

Cool Change - S1-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Nicky is dragging her ex-boyfriend across the hotel room floor you can see green screens outside of the balcony doors and windows. (00:39:45)

Let the Seller Beware - S3-E3

Factual error: When Grissom calls Greg into his office to ask him about his Scandinavian heritage, Greg says his grandfather was kicked out of Norway for getting his grandmother pregnant before they were married. Norway did not kick people out of country for that reason. Anyone who does family research will see that 7 out of 10 times a child was born out of wedlock or illegitimate, and nothing was done about it. It is recorded in the church records and that is it, there were lots of reasons this happened that children were born to unwed parents. Main reason was that they applied to be married and the marriage was disapproved of for one reason or another. Europeans are not as prudish as Americans about this stuff. A lot of Scandinavians nowadays live together, have kids and never get married.

Doctor Who (1) - S10-E22

Other mistake: In the first scene when we see Dr Langston from behind as he's watching people passing by he's wearing glasses but when we see his face he's not wearing any. (00:00:15)

Grissom's Divine Comedy - S8-E12

Continuity mistake: When Warrick demands to see the hands of a suspect, the suspect refuses and Warrick pushes him up against a wall. During which time, there are multiple angles which show Warrick wearing sunglasses, then suddenly not wearing them anymore. (00:23:30)

Big Shots - S7-E19

Other mistake: When CSI Brown is with the mother of the alleged victim, he shows her a picture of the deceased and asks if she knows her. The name on the picture is the one the mother gives (Simone Molinez). How would the correct name be in the picture if the victim had yet to be identified? (00:17:35)

Dead Doll (2) - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: After Natalie lowers the car onto Sara Sidle we know her right arm is pinned and she cannot move it. When Sara hears the coyotes she starts to look around and see where they are coming from. At one point we can see Sara with her right arm inside the crashed vehicle. (00:22:25)

Table Stakes - S1-E15

Plot hole: Amanda Haynes is Lacey Duvall's murderer, however in the opening scene she was kissing Patrick Haynes at the party downstairs at the exact time Lacey fell into the pool. She could not have pushed Lacey upstairs. (00:01:16 - 00:41:29)

Living Doll - S7-E24

Factual error: When Nick and Katherine are examining the bloody prints in the bathroom, Katherine looks at the wall outlet and says there are no burn marks present, when smudges are visible around the socket, and the wall next to it.

Suggested correction: Sarah is standing beside Dr. Robbins when he finds the SIM card within what's left of Officer Clark's chest cavity, during autopsy (timecode 00:19:35). Dave wasn't even near Clark, he was with the corpses of Officers Morales and Hooper.

Suckers - S4-E13

Question: After finding out that Ty was committing insurance fraud, why did Grissom walk away instead of arresting him?

Answer: He doesn't have the authority to arrest him - when anyone is arrested in the show, a police officer does it. Also he tells Ty that he is going to be submitting his case findings to Ty's insurance company, who would no doubt contact the IRS, who then would have him arrested for fraud etc.
