Do You Take Dexter Morgan? - S3-E12

Other mistake: The marriage certificate for Rita's first marriage shows her date of birth as 04-19-1989 and Dexter states she married at 16. The marriage date is 08-16-1989, when she would have been 4 months old. She also would only be 17 at the start of the series (2006) if she was born in 1989. (00:13:45)

Psych picture

Eureka picture

Phased and Confused - S3-E6

Other mistake: Captain Eureka losing his finger makes absolutely no sense. He doesn't cry out in pain, there's no blood, and where the finger ended up is completely illogical. The finger didn't just sever on its own; it's shown that severing only occurs when passing through objects. Captain Eureka goes through a wall that is a good fifteen feet away from where the finger is discovered, and it is implausible to think it could have rolled there on its own.

The Courtship of Betty's Father - S3-E14

Other mistake: When Betty is waiting at Elena's home, Elena walks up carrying a bag filled with groceries, and during their conversation we see the box of Nabisco Thin Crisps and bag of Goya Plantains in the grocery bag. Note the "Nabisco" logo and the brand name have been covered on the box, and there are strips of white tape disguising the brand name "Goya" on the bag. (00:36:10)
