Cell of Iron - S2-E3
Factual error: When Iron Man is asking H.O.M.E.R. to calculate where on Earth Star Well will crash, H.O.M.E.R. says it will be 25°60'00"N 80°12'00"W, which Iron Man's computer indicates to be New York City. Those coordinates are actually for Hollywood, Florida, just north of Miami. (00:18:31)
Answer: Gleaned from the Internet: Some critics criticized the premise of so many one-off battles that were introduced and concluded within one or two episodes. Others felt the first-season plot lines were overly simplistic and never progressed or developed through the season. Also, the rivalry between Iron Man and the Mandarin also failed to capture viewer's attention.
