And in the Beginning... - S1-E1

Factual error: The show is set in 1991, and Dexter walks past a Lehman Brothers stall at the jobs fair. The problem is that the stall and the marketing materials on it have the modern-day Lehman Brothers logo and branding. Back in 1991, the bank was called Shearson Lehman Brothers and had a completely different logo and colour scheme. It was only spun off into Lehman Brothers in 1994. (00:10:03)
