Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: Though the area is supposed to be dry and brown (thus the fire danger), the sequence in the hills was filmed in the late winter in California, so the backdrop is lush and green (and not a fire hazard), quite different than the "brown and dry" conditions spoken of in the dialogue.

Quotes:

[first lines]
Chief Rick Dysart: Local homeowner called it in early. We got it contained pretty quick. We were lucky.
Gil Grissom: [about charred body] Luckier than he was. Low humidity, dry brush. Perfect conditions for maximum damage.
Chief Rick Dysart: Firebugs listen to the weather reports just like we do. Only for different reasons.
Sara Sidle: Maybe some moron just threw a cigarette out the car window.
Chief Rick Dysart: You're an optimist.
