FBI (2018)

FBI picture

Undisclosed - S2-E7

Other mistake: Toward the end of the episode the perpetrator is corned by the FBI. He steps backwards from the curb and is killed instantly by a garage truck moving at a high rate of speed. In the following scene the garbage truck is shown just a few steps beyond the scene just behind a parked car. The truck was going very fast when it killed the perp and could not have stopped so quickly. Further it would not have been going that fast in a curb lane with a parked vehicle right ahead of it.

Episode #1.1 - S1-E1

Other mistake: Weol-ju goes into the forest at night and sees her house has been set on fire. From where she is standing, there is a large distance between her and the house, and the fire is so huge, that she can see it all the way from the forest. She then runs back, and given the distance between the forest and the house, should have taken a while, but the house is still in the middle of burning down when she arrives. The fire should've definitely worsened during her run back to the house. (00:12:23)

Die Glocke - S4-E6

Other mistake: When Jones is trying to convince Herr Waesch that she's the owner of the estate where his gala is being held, subtitles of his reply read "I personally procured this home. It's owners were French." The contraction "it's" should be the possessive "its."

Other mistake: After Jake checks the front door with the knife, Devon video calls him. Jake's video signal is displaying a low-angle shot, but at one point, the camera cuts to him holding the phone, and the way he's holding it doesn't match the angle we see in the video feed.

El doble - S1-E5

Other mistake: Jesus leaves his home with a double barrel break-action shotgun and an ammunition belt holding extra shot-shells. In the next scene Jesus is walking in the street with the shotgun and no ammunition belt, it magically vanished. The shotgun only has a capacity for 2 shot-shells, then it needs to be reloaded, or it can be reloaded after one is only fired, that procedure is called a top-off. He fires 1 round at the mayor and two inside Elena's home which makes three. He never reloads. (00:32:50 - 00:34:40)

The ABC Murders picture

Episode #1.3 - S1-E3

Other mistake: After the arrest of "ABC" and a brief scene with the interview to Betty's family, there's a prolonged close-up of a newspaper with the date "24 April 1933." Besides the article on the serial killer, there's a headline that says "German ministers in Rome - Uproar as Strong Arm men pack benches." The body of the article though talks about the Persian parlament, and the prime minister mentioned is "Dr. Mossadeg." Mohammad Mossadegh's public office as PM and his visit in the US mentioned in the article happened in the 50s.
