NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service mistake picture

Secrets - S9-E15

Continuity mistake: During their first day's investigation of the double homicide Tony is wearing a grey suit, white shirt, and burgundy tie. On the second day, while Tony is wearing a dark suit, light blue shirt and dark blue tie, when Gibbs tells Tony to go see what Ducky wants in Autopsy, Tony is back to wearing what he wore on their first day. Then at Tobett's house, Tony is again wearing the light blue shirt and dark blue tie. (00:04:30 - 00:31:00)

Loose Cannons - S13-E16

Visible crew/equipment: While Gibbs is at the diner with Dr. Taft and his wife he gets a call from Ellie, and when it cuts to the overhead shot of Gibbs, Ellie, and Tony walking toward each other, on the ground we can see the reddish chalk mark (for Gibbs) and two white chalk T-marks (for Tony and Ellie) where the three actors meet.

Blood Brothers - S13-E10

Revealing mistake: While Ellie and George are in the attic, Ellie uses her laptop to access contact info and gets Richard Doogan's DOD military service record. There's a closeup of the laptop screen as she begins to read aloud, but the problem is part of the paragraph reads, "And he's only a few hours away in Kansas..." and especially "I need to update Gibbs" which are Ellie's lines in the dialogue with her brother. (00:16:45)

The Artful Dodger - S12-E17

Visible crew/equipment: After Jimmy and Tony's chat, when Tony heads to the elevator Jimmy mutters that he hates being out of the loop. In the next overhead exterior shot of Tony's car, on the rear passenger window we can see the reflection of the boom operator walking and holding the boom pole/microphone. (00:21:30)

Curveball - S3-E23

Revealing mistake: After Betty leaves Jodie the voicemail, when Betty looks at Henry's Facebook page with the intention of unfriending him, she moves the cursor to the "remove friend" tab. Then in Betty's closeup we see that tab's reflections on both lenses of her eyeglasses, but the problem is the reflections are not backwards. (00:33:35)

The San Dominick - S12-E5

Visible crew/equipment: When Tony is with Captain O'Rourke in the parking lot, Borin approaches from behind. As O'Rourke turns to face Borin the actor's microphone has slipped out from under his shirt, between the buttons. Then when Borin says, "So will you," in the next shot facing O'Rourke and Tony, that mic is visible again. (00:38:10)

Better Angels - S11-E7

Continuity mistake: When Tony is sitting at McGee's desk talking to Delilah, Tony's holding the phone to his left ear with his left hand, but in the overhead shot Tony's holding the phone to his right ear with his right hand. (00:15:50)

Once a Crook - S11-E5

Visible crew/equipment: While Gibbs is with Abby in the lab when she mentions her dissection of the laptop, in the overhead shot as Abby says, "since it came in here, Gibbs," the moving wheel of the camera dolly is visible at the bottom, right corner of the screen. (00:09:35)

The Courtship of Betty's Father - S3-E14

Other mistake: When Betty is waiting at Elena's home, Elena walks up carrying a bag filled with groceries, and during their conversation we see the box of Nabisco Thin Crisps and bag of Goya Plantains in the grocery bag. Note the "Nabisco" logo and the brand name have been covered on the box, and there are strips of white tape disguising the brand name "Goya" on the bag. (00:36:10)

False Witness - S8-E10

Visible crew/equipment: When Gibbs tells Gail Walsh that they're keeping Jerry at NCIS, Gail replies, "Only on the condition that you keep me apprised of any new information," and in the next shot from behind Gail, a crew member (presumably the boom operator) wearing a black shirt and white pants is visible at the left side of the screen.
