Better Call Saul (2015)

The Guy for This - S5-E3

Kim Wexler: I know $5,000 isn't as much as it use to be back in 1974, and...and we do understand how inconvenient this must be. So, as a gesture of goodwill, Mesa Verde has just increased your buy-out to $18,000.
Everett Acker: $18,000?
Kim: That's right.
Everett: Well, nobody's ever explained it to me like that before. $18,000. That's a lot of money. I bet you with that, I could buy a big old mansion and a swimming pool. Do me a favor, will you? I'm gonna spread my legs out, like this, and just to finish it off, why don't you give me a swift kick in the balls?

Batman: Hush (2019)

Trivia: Peyton List voices Batgirl. Peyton List also voices Poison Ivy. This is not the same person getting credited twice. It's two different people. Normally the SAG doesn't allow two living members to have the same name, but they accidentally missed the younger Peyton List (Batgirl). The SAG should have made the younger List use a middle initial or stage name. Incidentally, the younger List got her start in an uncredited role in an episode of "As the World Turns" which also featured the older List.

Smallville (2001)

Descent - S7-E16

Question: In this episode, Lionel falls to his death. While still on the steps, covered with a tarp, the cop tells Lex that she needs a positive identification, so Lex must look at the dead body to confirm it's Lionel. Lionel was a well known public figure, and they obviously knew who he was well enough to get Lex to identify him. I've seen cops do this in other shows, so is it really a policy or practice to get family members to give a positive identification? Would they ever ask for it at the scene?

Bishop73

Answer: This is a common TV/movie trope that sets up a dramatic "reveal." It mostly streamlines the plot and eliminates the need to film an entirely separate scene. In real life, identity is handled at the morgue. A photograph of the corpse would be shown to family, a close friend, or other associate. This is done in a visitor's room and not in the lab. The family can supply photos that the coroner could compare with the body. A person's identity can be verified by other physical traits-birthmarks, scars, medical conditions, etc. In extreme cases, DNA testing would be used.

Turbulence - S8-E16

Kara - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When Kara and Clark get off the elevator, there's no-one around them as they're walking away. In the next shot of Kara and the elevator, 3 people have suddenly gathered to look at the broken elevator. The elevator was off camera for less than 2 seconds, not enough time for 3 different people to get into the position they're in when they weren't close by to begin with.

Hug - S1-E11

Question: Ignoring the meteor metahuman powers, couldn't Jonathan Kent say the signature was a forgery, and he didn't sign it? It didn't seem to be notarized. He doesn't remember signing it or know what Rickman said to him to get him to sign it, so what would the courts or a lawyer say if Kent just said that's not his signature, or he didn't sign it? And how ironclad could the contract be without the date filled out?"Twentieth" day is typed out, but the month and year is blank.
