Suggested correction: Richard erases part of the circle.

Except we see Richard standing there without touching the board. Then, as he moves towards the board, the camera cuts, and while his hand is on the board, most of the circle is already wiped off where he didn't have enough time to do it. Plus, the amount that the circle is wiped off also changes.

Exactly, there isn't enough time to wipe off the amount that was wiped.

Suggested correction: DY 536 HR is a correct French license plate number combination. I determined the owner of this car is in Guadeloupe, where the series is made. Also, the series is set on the fictional island of St Honore, not Hawaii.

Episode #2.5 - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: In the beginning the man who takes care of food and drinks hurt his fingers. Only in the last scene we see that he has bandages around the hurt fingers for the first time.

Suggested correction: I thought the same but actually he wears the correct bandage in the scenes after the murder, all the time. The tape is hard to spot because of the color and is not in frame a lot, but in the scene when he is back on the boat "for the knives" you can spot the tape at minute 21, when he says "Except for the cocktails she was drinking", and in the crab scene he is also sporting the bandage.

Other mistake: Investigating the crime scene, Richard, facing away from Camille, asks what was the victim drinking. Camille is already going for the glass of rum before he asks the question. (00:03:00)

Suggested correction: This could be explained by a detective doing a good job.

I hope that watching the scene it can be clear. Camille was busy taking some notes, and he is facing away from her. All of a sudden, he says "So, what was she drinking?" and while he is at "So" Camille is literally lunging to her side to go look at the glass. Neither had any possible way to get that kind of timing, and it's not played as a "Hey, we were both thinking the same thing! Jinx!" kind of gag.

I'll watch the scene on Netflix shortly.

Episode #2.7 - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Fidel and Dwayne arrive at the place where Camille and Richard are hiding for the hurricane, they can open the doors without a problem, whereas Camille and Richard had taken great care of locking the doors from the inside.

Dark Memories - S7-E7

Trivia: Spoiler; In this episode, for the first time the suspect (and eventual culprit) is not present for the ending confrontation, with a chance he'd get away with murder. The actor playing Samuel Palmer, Larrington Walker, died before the finale could be filmed.

Show generally

Question: Why did the cord on the wall phone in the police station change from straight in the early episodes to coiled later?

Answer: There's probably no particular reason. Sets and props on long-running TV shows often change as needed and for various reasons throughout a series run.
