Character mistake: Doc holds the binoculars the wrong way round. (00:30:20)
Character mistake: When Henry is speaking to the detective involved in investigating his father's death, the detective says that based upon evidence found at the house he requested a toxicology screen, which showed that his father died of a barbiturate overdose. He continues to explain that he found an empty bottle of hydrocodone in the bathroom trash can. Hydrocodone is an opiate, not a barbiturate. (00:07:35)
Just Stuck It in That There Doo-Dad - S3-E3
Character mistake: At the start of the episode, Jimmy says he met Cookie at work. The scene then changes to the strip club where Cookie is working and Jimmy is there looking for Bobby. In the Season 1 episode "The Horny Bastard", Jimmy tells Cookie that they met when he robbed her dad's liquor store.
Character mistake: Mrs. Reynolds, the housekeeper at Pemberley, refers to Mr. Darcy's late mother as Mrs. Darcy while showing Elizabeth and her aunt and uncle the house. This is a grave mistake on the part of the filmmakers as she should have been referred to as Lady Anne, the way her sister is known as Lady Catherine. Their father was an Earl, making them Ladies by birth, not by marriage. Hence, they must be called Lady followed by their first name.
Character mistake: When Jet tells Katara and Aang to waterbend the water from underground in the geysers, Katara states that she has never waterbent on water she couldn't see before. However, six episodes prior to this, in 'The Warriors of Kyoshi', she waterbends the water out from Aang's lungs to save his life.
Suggested correction: That was a moment of desperation on her part, and she probably doesn't think of it/think she can do it again without the same desperate impetus, Furthermore, the water in Aang was only a small amount and very close anyway.
Regardless of if she did it in desperation or not, she did use bending on water she didn't see. The mistake isn't suggesting anything about Katara's ability to waterbend unseen water, the mistake is only in regards to the statement Katara made about never using bending on water she can't see. And for Katara to forget the one time she used bending on water she didn't see would qualify as a character mistake as well. Now if she made the statement "I don't think I can do this" or "I've never used bending on underground water", etc, that would not be a character mistake.
Rendezvous with Yesterday - S1-E1
Character mistake: When Tony talks to captain of Titanic he states he was born in 1938, but in episode 4 "The Day the Sky Fell In" it is December 1941, he should be 3 years old, but as a young child he is about 12 years old.
Character mistake: Lt. Joey said to Lt. Sulu "You don't outrank me and you don't have pointed ears" but Joey is a junior grade lieutenant so Sulu would outrank him.
Character mistake: As Eddie Haskell and Lumpy Rutherford return from the washroom to Mr. Gannon's history class, Mr. Gannon calls Eddie "Louis."
Deadeye Dick - S5-E9
Character mistake: Bob's father's name is Harry Foley according to Granger and the end credits. But James Drury apparently forgot this in one scene, where the Virginian addresses Harry as "Tom."
Character mistake: At the end of the episode, after Sarah has been tricked into revealing her plan and is rather obviously going to go to jail, Tru tells her that she "should have taken half," meaning that she should have settled for half of Andrew's money in a divorce instead of trying to get all of it by having him murdered. But Tru seems to be forgetting that Sarah has been trying to divorce Andrew all along, and it's Andrew who has stood in the way of that. Sarah would evidently have been perfectly happy with half, but Andrew prevented it from even being on the table for her, so Tru's comment doesn't make any sense.
Character mistake: Horatio writes the symbols for sulfuric acid, H2SO4, on a clear board. Both numbers should be subscripts but he writes the 4 as a coefficient (which precedes the name of the acid but he writes it after), suggesting a lack of basic chemistry knowledge.
Touchstone - S2-E14
Character mistake: The team are finding out who could have stolen the weather device from Madrona and find an energy spike at the same time SG2 are on a mission. "But SG2's mission is galaxies away from Madrona" Says Teal'c. At this time the only missions the teams could go on was in our own galaxy and couldn't be galaxies away.
Character mistake: When the Brady kids are practicing for the talent show, instead of saying, "Come on, Pete," Marcia says, "Come on Chris," which is the actor playing Peter's real name (Christopher Knight). (00:14:30)
Character mistake: When Faith arrives in LA she is carrying a bag. She puts it on the ground and then steals a man's jacket and wallet. Afterwards however, she leaves without picking up her bag.
Rudy's Walk on the Wild Side - S6-E18
Character mistake: At the beginning, when Vanessa is begging for money from her dad to buy a CD, Cliff says she can clean the garage. But the Huxtables live in a brownstone townhouse and brownstones do not have garages.
Character mistake: When Bree calls the police when she hears a noise downstairs, she says she lives at 4355 Wisteria Lane when her address is in fact 4354 Wisteria Lane. 4355 is the Scavo residence, not the Van De Kamp residence.
Character mistake: Series 1, Episode 3: When Alex tells Ray she will re-trace his steps for clues linking to the murder of a girl, he says, "Don't worry, lads! Wonder Woman's here!" Alex replies, "FYI DI Carling." Ray is a DS, not a DI.
Character mistake: Hayley is on the phone in the car with Alex and she's holding her phone upside down.
And Strokes of Goodwill - S1-E3
Character mistake: Why does Max get so possessive about the T-shirt that is bought by the other woman when she is distracted? We see that it fits the new owner very snugly and she is much smaller than Max. Fitting her the way it does, it would be far, far too small for Max. Max is chronically short of cash and there is no way she will spend money on something that will be of absolutely no use to her.
Suggested correction: No rationale is needed. Max wanted the shirt and another woman grabbed it. She was just being competitive. A character's choices are not mistakes.
What rubbish. Max is chronically short of cash ("Two Broke Girls" - bit of a giveaway?) and there is no way she will spend money on something that will be of absolutely no use to her. In fact, nobody deliberately buys clothes knowing they will not fit, but that goes double for someone who cannot afford to do so in the first place.
Why on earth would Max be so possessive about a shirt that wouldn't even come close to fitting her?
The posting is correct and the correction is nonsensical. Max does not have money to burn and buying an item of clothing that is far too small for her is simply something that she would not do.
