Dear Writers and Script Editors of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Allow me to introduce to you the basic concept of Science, and the minor matter of facts that I was taught in school at the age of 15. If Sarah Connor is blood group O negative, then her son cannot possibly be blood group AB. Using this combination as a plot point is therefore something of an error.

If I came across this kind of mistake that can be disproved by spending five minutes with google in a fanfic, it would bug me. Finding it in a professional TV series goes beyond words.

And the same people who have House's assistants discussing a blood film when they're looking at anything but! But those are mistakes at a later stage, by the team responsible for directing and props and setting up scenes. What goes into the script is the responsibility of one person alone (pretty much, though it will be fiddled with later by others). You'd think that the one person would check their facts.
