Middle Game - S1-E4
Corrected entry: In 1966, "Mexico City" was not called "Mexico City." It was referred to as "Mexico City." It was not until 2016 that the "Distrito Federal" began to be called "Mexico City" (Ciudad de Mexico). (00:11:31)
Adjournment - S1-E6
Corrected entry: We see Beth dancing and singing to a song in her house, Venus. Shocking Blue's 'Venus' was originally released in 1969. The next scene you see is a poster: Kentucky State chess championship 1968.
Correction: The scene is set in 1969, the poster is from her win at the championship the year prior.
Middle Game - S1-E4
Corrected entry: As Beth describes her game where she played black, she says she plays pawn to queen bishop four, but black can't play this on the first move. (00:20:20)
Correction: How is this an illegal move? P-QB4 is two squares ahead of her pawn and pawns can move 2 spaces on their opening move. Notation always takes place from the player's perspective, not the White's perspective.
Adjournment - S1-E6
Corrected entry: The song in the car when they were heading to New York was released in 1979, but this scene is set in 1967. (00:01:04)
Correction: The song playing is "Stop Your Sobbing" by The Kinks, which was released in 1964. What you're talking about is The Pretender's cover version from 1979, but that's not the version heard.
Corrected entry: The show presents a transgender woman as a chaplain and choir director in the 1950s. While female chaplains did exist at the time, a transgender woman would never be allowed to be a chaplain in the 1950s.
Correction: The character is not transgender.
Correction: Mexico City has been informally called Mexico City for hundreds of years.
