SEAL Team (2017)

Last Known Location - S3-E16

Character mistake: Lindell is referred to as Captain Lindell; however, on his office wall, he has a Meritorious Service Medal Award that references Captain Greyson Lindell, USMC. The fact Lindell is a Marine, he should be recognized as a Colonel and be wearing a USMC uniform, not a U.S. Navy uniform. (00:26:43)

Blue Bloods (2010)

Blue Bloods (2010)

On the Arm - S12-E11

Character mistake: Lt. Gormley mentions a Captain (Captain Terrell) taking items On the Arm that is a 33-year veteran. Captain Terrell tells the PC that when she was 12 her brother was wounded in Iraq. If she has 33 years on The Job, there's no way she could have been 12 during the war in Iraq. The Vietnam War would have been more appropriate for the age and background of Captain Terrell. (00:00:21 - 00:14:33)

Blue Bloods (2010)

Hate is Hate - S12-E1

Character mistake: Officer Rachel Witten tells Eddie the gun she has belonged to her dad when he was on The Job. In episode 15 of season 8 Gormley tells Frank that Witten's dad was a FDNY Battalion Chief and her uncles were police officers. In episode 12 of season 9 Officer Witten's dad Sgt. Scott Witten speaks to Frank about being on The Job. It's unlikely and not normal for someone to become a firefighter after being a police officer or vice versa or do both jobs.

Blue Bloods (2010)

Silver Linings - S12-E20

Character mistake: After the explosion, Danny calls for a medic. At the hospital Baez ask Danny if the reason he called for a medic instead of a bus was it because it reminded you of something that happened. Danny was a Marine, so if he was having a flashback he would have called for a corpsman instead of a medic. Medics are in the Army, not the Marine Corps. (00:06:50 - 00:54:22)

Chicago P.D. (2014)

Night in Chicago - S6-E13

After Atwater beats up Doyle, he retrieves Doyle's gun and holds it to Doyle's head and drops it to the ground. Atwater walks away, but he never retrieved his own badge and gun before walking away. The gun and badge are on the barrel, and he does not return to retrieve them. (00:58:37 - 00:59:32)

FBI: Most Wanted (2020)

Predators - S1-E8

Character mistake: The FBI team responds to a murder crime scene. The victim is lying face down in the bed with blood everywhere. The team leader takes the victim's wrist with his bare ungloved hand. A trained FBI agent would never touch a murder victim without gloves - one to protect himself and two not to contaminate the crime scene. (00:10:00)

No Such Thing as Bad Luck - S7-E18

Character mistake: At the formal awards ceremony for Cruz the Police officers and Cruz are in dress uniform with their covers on. Serveride joins them on stage in uniform without his cover on and salutes Cruz. Serveride should have known to have on his cover for the ceremony. (00:58:00)

Madam Secretary (2014)

Family Separation: Part 2 - S5-E11

Character mistake: Pot Lobbyist Win Barrington pitches the pros for legalization of marijuana to a governor by saying 10 years ago US Customs and Border Patrol seized over 4 million pounds of marijuana. However, there is no agency by that name. The correct agency name is US Customs and Border Protection. (00:32:00)

Show generally

Character mistake: S44/E80 Noah Newman works as a bartender, and while at Victor Newman's house says "let's show off some of those drink serving skills." While making a drink he pours straight vodka from the bottle into a martini glass and puts in olives and hands it to Abby to drink. As bartender Noah should know how to make a martini. He doesn't use any vermouth with the vodka and doesn't chill it first by shaking or stirring it before pouring it into the martini glass. (00:11:00)
