The Lost Soul of Herman Lester - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: Ray Lester is sitting at a table wearing a white hoodie, chatting with his mother and Detective Valens. Ray's empty right hand is lying on the table, with a closed bottle of water on the floor beside his chair. It cuts for exactly 2 seconds to Detective Rush signaling Valens to bring the mom into the next room. When it turns back to the three, Ray Lester is now holding the open Poland Spring water bottle in his right hand, on the table. Much too quick to lift and open in 2 seconds. (00:28:03)

Thick as Thieves - S5-E5

Factual error: Look at the area by the door when we see Margot and Spencer in the hotel room in 1989. The light switch is a flat "Decora" switch, and above the door handle is a black box that houses electronics for a "card key" system. The light switch was not introduced until the 1990s, and while the card key system was introduced in 1985, only very expensive hotels afforded the conversion costs - and the hotel they're at isn't exactly the Hilton.
