Ilyas Surkov (No. 54) - S5-E5

Factual error: Norfolk Naval Base is located on completely flat terrain and the areas around the base is devoid of trees in all directions for miles. The scene shows the ship with a tree-filled hillside across the water. Obviously the scene was not shot in Norfolk, VA. (00:32:08)

The Harem (No. 102) - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: When Emma and Jessica are waiting for the other two, Emma is looking at herself in the broken side mirror, and Jessica is leaning on the hood next to her when the van pulls in. In the next shot, with the van still pulling in, Emma and Jessica are now standing in front of the Cadillac.

Susan Hargrave - S3-E21

Continuity mistake: The knife hole and blood on the envelope of the note to Scottie Hargrave changes. In the first close up, the name is aligned to the middle of the hole and there's a trail of blood running down towards the corner. In Scottie's hand, the hole/blood is higher up and the trail of blood is gone.

Berlin - S1-E21

Other mistake: When Paul goes into the bank he's carrying the money bag. When he is seen walking into the bathroom for the first time, he isn't carrying the bag, which is already on the windowsill.

Suggested correction: This is a theatre used for plays, and it's Red's temporary safehouse for Liz. In the previous episode, The Djinn (No. 43), Red talks about this theatre owned by Gerta. Red says, "Her theatre is ours as long as we need it." So, Red and Liz are using it to hide out.

Lord Baltimore (No. 104) - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Rowan shoots the suited men with the sniper rifle, the camera angle shows members of the public watching the filming and filming the the production on their phones. (00:28:46)

Abraham Stern (No. 100) - S5-E11

Character mistake: Reddington says that the 1943 pennies he is hunting are special because they were made of bronze when all other pennies were made of copper. The 1943 pennies were actually the steel pennies from WWII as to save copper for the war efforts, there were some copper errors that year, but the majority were zinc and not copper.

The Corsican (No. 20) - S6-E2

Question: When Ressler is trying to find the elusive Constantine, why don't they radio descriptions such as (grey hair, sunglasses, blue blazer)? As he tends to the victim shot at UN, why does he not simultaneously radio for perimeter search with description? In same episode, Keen states how much "good" Red does as if defending him to her "sister" yet she then says she is the one who turned him in? Not logical. And besides, was it ever proven that the sister is in fact Liz's sister via DNA etc.? Not very good FBI work.
