Bones (2005)

The X in the File - S5-E11

Trivia: This episode pays homage to The X Files, even using the X Files theme tune for a ring tone. It also features Dean Haglund, playing Blaine Miller who owns the alien themed cafe. Haglund also played Langley, one of the lone gunmen from The X Files.

Yanks in the UK (2) - S4-E2

Factual error: Dr. Wexler is killed in his flat in Oxford, yet the the fire engine outside his property is marked as being from the London Fire Brigade rather than the Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. (00:04:20)

Bones (2005)

Judas on a Pole - S2-E11

Trivia: The position of the bodies and in particular the arms of the two dead, corrupt FBI agents bear a remarkable resemblance to a full size painting that appears in Angela's throughout the first season and most of the second season of Bones - body upright, upper arms outstretched and forearms pointing down at a right angles.

The Knight on the Grid - S3-E8

Other mistake: Towards the end of the episode, Bones and Booth visit social services and discover the identify of an elderly man whom they then suspect to be a Gormagon Master, who had retired from social services and lived in a nursing home. Much earlier in the episode, back at the lab, there is a glass panel with a flow chart of Masters and Apprentice Gormagon's - one labeled Master has the picture of the old man from the nursing home - this is before the visit to social services or the nursing home.

Trivia: The plotline of this episode is based on copycat murders drawn from Bones' books. The fictitious heroine in the book is named Kathy Reichs: Reichs is the forensic anthropologist upon whose life the character Temperance "Bones" Brennan (the character in her books and this series) is based.
