Class of '09 picture

Thank You for Not Driving - S1-E3

Other mistake: The scene in which Tayo's wife gets into her car to leave their home is filled with mistakes. First off, it seems to take her much too long for the short driveway to reach the curb. Then, when she is blocked by the perp's van, she rams one of the perps twice and then backs away. As she is backing away, the perp's body flies forward, smashing into the van. She then rams the van twice with great force, and yet her car has minimal damage, only to the corner of the car.

Siege of Terror - S1-E1

Other mistake: At the beginning of the episode, there are a few sequences with police cars going at notable speed down the streets of New York. In a few instances, you can see people gathered in street corners, looking at the filming. One egregious example is when the criminals loading the van are startled by the sirens. In the following shot, two bystanders look at the car, then turn towards the camera, and one even takes a few steps back to get out of frame. (00:03:40)

Moth to a Flame - S1-E3

Other mistake: The police are watching a bus traveling between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. As part of the surveillance, they show a policeman in a car taking pictures. The lens cap is still on.

Thief in the Night - S1-E15

Other mistake: The credits for the episode have simply been duplicated from a previous episode, "Takeover." The credits state that the guest stars are John Furey and Sandra Hess, neither of whom appeared in this episode. Both actors, in fact, appeared in the episode "Takeover." (00:41:56)

Ballard picture

BYOB - S1-E3

Other mistake: Ballard and Laffont head to the country club to talk with a suspect in their cold case. Laffont takes a photo out of his jacket, looks around, and says, "There he is." Then they walk over to the suspect, whose back is to them, and who turns around when they approach. No way they could have confirmed the person was the same as the one in the photo from behind them.

Boston Blue picture

Teammates - S1-E2

Other mistake: Danny and Sean are at a Boston Red Sox game at Fenway Park, and Sean is wearing a Red Sox cap. There's no way a true New Yorker would ever wear a Red Sox cap in the company of his diehard New Yorker father. (00:56:28)
