Occultation - S1-E6
Factual error: Eichhorst seems to be unsure what his SS rank is. He is addressed as Standartenführer (Colonel) but wears the epaulettes of an Obersturmbannführer (Lieutenant-Colonel) and the collar patch of a Sturmbannführer (Major). In addition, his other collar patch bears the standard SS lightning runes instead of the death's head of the Totenkopf concentration camp personnel.
Factual error: Will's hospital chart states he is taking Warfarin and Coumadin. These are both the same drug to prevent blood clots. He would not be on both. (00:31:50)
Factual error: There is no way cops would just walk up and open fire on a suspect unannounced, not knowing if he is armed or not, and with an innocent bystander so close.
Factual error: 1968: The basement's brick wall crumbles to reveal Trask's skeleton hanging in the alcove. Only it shouldn't be. Bodies do not remain assembled once the flesh and sinew are gone. Trask's remains ought to be a large pile of bones on the floor.
Factual error: When Jim is watching the guy about to be blown up, the reflection in the binocular lens is the same as we just saw, when it should be a reversed image.
Factual error: The show is supposed to be set in Pennsylvania. But when Roman is getting treatment in a doctor's office, and his phone vibrates on a table next to him, a close up shot of his phone is shown and the cell service is ROGERS. This cell service is only in Canada. (00:22:00)
Horror in the Heights - S1-E11
Factual error: Outside the Indian restaurant, the street curb is painted red. In Chicago, throughout the 1970s, curbs were painted white or yellow to indicate special parking zones; never red.
Factual error: After the spaceship collides with another craft in orbit, it crashes through multiple buildings before coming to a stop embedded in a large structure. Despite this violent descent and impact, scenes inside the wreck show delicate objects, like equipment, containers, and tools, still neatly resting on tables and shelves instead of being thrown around by the crash. (00:48:55)
Suggested correction: It is a spaceship built and controlled by advanced future technology; there could be several systems on that ship preventing items from being thrown about. A popular technology in sci-fi is inertia dampers or null fields that can hold items in place.
While "inertial dampeners" exist in other sci-fi, Alien: Earth never establishes such tech. The Alien series is known for grounded, industrial realism; objects always scatter in crashes or turbulence. Given the ship's massive impact through buildings, items staying neatly on tables isn't consistent with the tone or physics of the series.
1) The ships have artificial gravity and faster-than-light drives. This means that they are able to manipulate Newtonian physics. 2) Doesn't the fact that everything isn't smashed establish that they have some kind of "inertial dampers"?
Factual error: The British Army soldiers are not wearing British Army uniforms or carrying British Army weapons and some of them have beards, which are not permitted to British Army soldiers.
Welcome to Hotel del Luna - S1-E1
Factual error: The dead policewoman removes the bullet that she was shot in the head with. The bullet appears to be completely intact and undamaged as if never fired. Real bullets that have been fired into something or someone do not appear like this. (00:36:30)
Factual error: The fly Good Chucky kills bleeds red blood. Fly blood is usually clearish with a yellow and green tint. Not opaque red.
Factual error: A man enters a bank and begins firing his Glock 9mm pistol. A few of the men he shoots, jump up in the air after the rounds impact their bodies. Bullets hitting a body will never make it jump, or fly in the air. (00:00:01 - 00:01:46)
Factual error: The FBI agent introduces himself and says "Mike Weston - I did my thesis on Joe Carol at the academy." FBI agents are required to have a university degree, but they don't write thesis' at the academy. A person is either in a university or at Quantico getting trained. They are not writing papers at Quantico. They need the degree beforehand to get in. (00:10:30 - 00:11:30)
Factual error: Sir John Franklin, Francis Crozier and James Fitzjames all wear a crown over an anchor on their epaulettes, the rank badge for a captain with over three years in rank. This is correct for Franklin and Crozier, but Fitzjames only held the rank of commander, and should therefore only be wearing an anchor on his epaulettes.
Factual error: In Massachusetts, Atticus, Leti and George are attacked by the local sheriff and his deputies, who are patrolling the county roads. In Massachusetts, sheriffs run the county jails, but they do not (and did not) handle routine policing, which is the responsibility only of municipal police departments.
Factual error: Despite taking place in Massachusetts and many of the cars having Massachusetts license plates, none of the vehicles has the required annual inspection sticker on the lower part of the passenger side of the windshield.
Factual error: At the end when Skeksis enters the crystal chamber, in the overhead shot you can see 22 arcane symbols around the crystal when there should only be 18, one for each exiled skeksis. (00:45:53)
Factual error: When they go to 1954, the hamburger drive in says it has frappes. Not invented till '57, and not in the US public eye until at least 45 years later.
Suggested correction: What you're describing is a Greek café frappé made with instant coffee. In New England "Frappe" is what many would consider a milkshake with ice cream in it, and has been around since at least the 50's (Vic's dad even mentions getting frappes in episode 4).
Pride Parade - S5-E3
Factual error: Nandor manages to fly up to space, then loses control and falls back to earth in a fireball as he reenters the atmosphere. But objects reentering the atmosphere only get hot because they're generally travelling at immense speeds, 7-12 kilometers per second. Nandor just floated straight up, then falls straight back down. When Felix Baumgartner parachuted from the edge of space his maximum speed was about 1,300 km/h, and he didn't catch fire.
Factual error: Constantine's driving licence is shown - it's a UK licence, but no. 7 where his signature should be is blank, and no. 8 where his full address should be simply says "England, United Kingdom." Both are printed onto the licence when it's issued - without that info it would never be issued in the first place. And it's not a fake, because why would he have a fake licence with his real information on it? It's just an incomplete prop.
