Destiny - S1-E13

Corrected entry: Johnny predicts a fire at the restaurant and his warnings and those of the sheriff go unheeded. However, everyone seems to just shrug and walk off and leave the restaurant to its fate. Given the response of the sheriff to Johnny's predictions in the past, even if the owner of the restaurant wouldn't close down they still could have had officers at the restaurant. The prediction said the "doors would jam" and so an officer there could help break them down. Or even better, maybe have the fire department on standby.

Correction: There would be no way for the sheriff to legally keep officers at the restaurant. No crime has been commited. And while the sheriff might believe Johnny, the danger isn't one he can rationally justify to the restaurant owners.

What It Seems - S1-E2

Corrected entry: When Johnny comes to see Walt, Walt doesn't recognize him until he tells him who he is. But, we see in future episodes that Walt already saw Johnny with Sarah at the hospital while he was in a coma.

Correction: While he may have seen Johnny before, he didn't know him. He wouldn't necessarily have made the connect that the guy in front of him was Johnny, especially since Johnny was lying in bed in a coma the last time he saw him.

Here There Be Monsters - S1-E10

Plot hole: The female police officer has a theory that Johnny was the Strangler in the case the papers claimed he helped solve but this hardly makes sense. If she was researching him as was seen in the episode, surely it would have said something about Johnny being in a coma during the bulk of the murders since the story was about Johnny.

Johnny Smith: We were always twenty minutes late to every movie we went to! How did ET get to Earth? I don't know. Why did the Empire strike back? Beats me.

Chosen answer: Unreasonable Doubt aired as the fifth episode, on July 14 2002, with Netherworld airing as the eighth episode on August 4th. One possible explanation is that the networks are sometimes known to air episodes out of their actual production order. In cases like this, the DVD release usually uses the production order, thus placing the episodes in the order which they were intended to be watched.
