Poisoning the Well - S1-E7

Revealing mistake: Steve (Wraith)'s belly appears not to match the rest of the Wraith character's skin tone. Clearly, it is a human body rather than an alien. (00:31:36)

Show generally

Factual error: Anytime a character fires a missile at an airborne target, it's invariably from an M136 antitank launcher. The M136 is designed to hit relatively slow moving ground vehicles and is useless against fast moving airborne targets. (This is because used M136 tubes can't be reloaded and are very cheap to use as props).

Maj. John Sheppard: "Get as far away from the nuclear explosion as possible." That's good advice, Rodney, thanks.
