Chase Through Time - S1-E24

Factual error: Raul Nimon uses a silencer-equipped revolver during his attack in the tunnel control room. In reality, a silencer on a revolver is useless, as the exploding gases from the bullet discharge (the gun blast) would exit from the space between the cylinder and gun barrel.

Idol of Death - S1-E21

Factual error: One of the Spanish soldiers lights a torch with what appears to be a hand-held lighter. Early lighters were converted flintlock pistols (not yet invented during the time of this episode) and the earliest hand-held lighter would not be invented until three hundred years after this episode's timeline.

Idol of Death - S1-E21

Revealing mistake: After the first Native American is shot in the back with the crossbow, the base used to stabilize the arrow in the back of the actor is visible underneath his clothing.

Invasion - S1-E15

Factual error: Right at the start of the episode there is a sign visible on the side of a building that shows the German word "Warenhaus." This is a wrong translation of the English word "warehouse." The correct German word should be "Lagerhaus."

Chase Through Time - S1-E24

Factual error: Doug and Tony time travel to one million years B.C., where they encounter dinosaurs. Not likely. All the dinosaurs were rendered extinct several million years earlier by an asteroid strike. There weren't any left by 1-million BC. (00:29:45)

Revenge of the Gods - S1-E7

Factual error: This is one of two episodes in the series where a WW2-era German MP38/40 submachine gun was used by American forces (Master Sergeant Jiggs, in this episode) rather than an American weapon such as a Thompson submachine gun.

The Kidnappers - S1-E28

Continuity mistake: At the very end of this episode, when they have just arrived in the new time, Doug is fighting a man in a turban. He loses the turban, but then the next shot, it has reappeared on his head. (00:48:54)
