'V' For Vashon: The Patriarch (3) - S5-E11

Character mistake: When Ben talks to the old guy about Spider Brown, Ben says, "Somebody that got rich the past week." The time between the shooting and trial was probably months, not just one week. Spider would have been flashing money right after the hit, and then disappeared.

The Finishing Touch - S6-E11

Character mistake: McGarrett mispronounces his old friend Cargill's name in the bank vault scene, giving it a soft G and calling him "Car-jill." Earlier in the episode, and in all the scenes after this, he correctly says "Cargill" with a hard G. (00:17:00)

Trivia: Danno was played by Tim O'Kelley in the 5-0 pilot. But a NY test audience told CBS they didn't buy him as a serious cop because he was too much of a "smart-cracking, Jimmy-Olsen-type gee-whiz kid." Leonard Freeman took the criticism to heart, and recast the part with James MacArthur for the series.

Answer: He was fired. He never really appreciated his character. He felt Kono was portrayed as a big dumb Hawaiian and that the stereotype was racist. He also felt underutilized. He was fired after a heated argument with the show's publicist regarding his character. It seems there's not much details given regarding the incident or the firing, so it's seems possible he upset the show's producers as well.

No he said something derogatory about one of the Jewish producers that's why he was fired.

Answer: He was asked to speak at a local organization event but the producer insisted that Jack Lord be also there. It was an event in honor of Hawaiians and that set him off. He used a derogatory name for the Jewish producer and that pretty much ended his stint on the show.
