Bones: The Verdict in the Story (2008)
Plot Holes
I usually enjoy this show but they tried too hard in this episode and created a huge plot hole. The defense supposedly created reasonable doubt by alleging that Dr. Brennan could have committed the crime since she was also in all three places that the particulate evidence connected to the murder weapon. What they forgot was that the defense had already proved that the pipe with the particulate evidence on it was not the murder weapon. Therefore, the particulate evidence was irrelevant. Brennan's father could have gotten off without making her a suspect. I guess they just needed a sentimental end so they forgot what the show is supposed to be about--the forensic evidence.
Cold Case: Torn (2007)
Errors-anachronisms
The opening scene of this episode takes place in June, 1919. Mr. Stone is blaming the possibility of Prohibition being enacted on the suffragettes. The episode places great stress on the idea that if women get the vote that they will then be responsible for Prohibition passing. In fact, the 18th Amendment (Prohibition) had already been ratified six months prior to this scene--before women had the right to vote. The 19th Amendment (giving women the right to vote) had already passed the House and the Senate but had not yet been ratified. Also, the closing song is of Hoagy Carmichael singing "Stardust" which wasn't published until 1927.
