  33. ↑ Episode 4x11 - "The Depths": Being that the last known whereabouts of Gregory Magnus is said to be his trip to Bolivia in 1909, it means that he had disappeared from Helen Magnus's life sometime later in 1909 or afterward.

  62. ↑ Episode 4x06 - "Homecoming": A 9-year-old Will Zimmerman and his father Jacob Zimmerman visit Mary Anne Zimmerman's grave site one year after her death. Year of death on her headstone is 1985.
  63. ↑ Episode 1x08 - "Edward" (flashback): Speculation: The show seems to adopt the actors' ages for their characters to a certain extent, in particular their year of birth. Only in the case of Helen Magnus is a similar birth day used rather than the year. Based on Ryan Robbins who plays Henry Foss being born in 1972, and estimating that Young Henry was around age 8-years-old when Helen Magnus found him, this potentially places the year as being roughly 1980.

  74. ↑ Episode 4x06 - "Homecoming": As most high school graduates are 18 / 19-years-old when they enter college as a freshman, the flashback scene in 4x06 with a college-aged Will Zimmerman and his father Jacob Zimmerman potentially occurs in the year 1994 / 1995 depending on when Will Zimmerman's birthday is and the school system's cut-off date. In the U.S., children must be age 5-years-old before September 1st to enter kindergarten.

  92. ↑ Episode 4x12 - "Sanctuary for None, Part I": Dialogue spoken by Captain Franklin to Will Zimmerman: Franklin states that Will left the Old City Police Department to work for the Sanctuary Network four years ago. Due to the season 4 finale taking place in January / February 2012, it places the premiere 1x00 in that same time frame of year in 2008.

  94. ↑ Episode 1x09 - "Requiem": Dialogue spoken by Will Zimmerman to Helen Magnus.
  95. ↑ Episode 1x09 - "Requiem": Even though Helen Magnus is last stated as being 157-years-old in 1x07, due to knowing that Ashley Magnus's birthday occurs roughly two months before Helen Magnus's and based on Ashley Magnus still being 23-years-old by 1x09, it means that neither of the characters has celebrated their 2008 birthdays yet as of 1x09.

  97. ↑ Episode 1x07 - "The Five": Dialogue spoken by Ashley Magnus to John Druitt.
  98. ↑ Episode 1x09 - "Requiem": Dialogue spoken by Will Zimmerman to Helen Magnus.
  99. ↑ Timeline dates for 1x12 through 2x03 placing event occurrence in January / February 2009 is conjecture based on "Revelations" U.S. air dates starting in early January 2009. All three subsequent season finales are placed within this time of year to keep chronological continuity. Also, being that a season of TV is considered to span the length of a year, this matches up with Season 1 being a year ago in January / February 2008 based on 4x12 being four years later from it in early 2012.
  100. ↑ Episode 2x03 - "Eulogy": Dialogue spoken by Will Zimmerman to Helen Magnus.
  101. ↑ Episode 2x03 - "Eulogy": Based on the length of time that Sanctuary work crews are said to have been inside the Old City Sanctuary rebuilding.
  102. ↑ Episode 1x11 - "Instinct": Speculation: Based on John Druitt's comment of "It seems business is never finished with us despite our losses" and the tone in which it's said, this may mark one year since Ashley Magnus's abduction / 'death', placing the episode in roughly early January to mid February of 2010.
  103. ↑ Episode 3x02 - "Firewall": For the cut off scene in the avatar chamber near the end of 3x01, we learn in 3x02 that Gregory Magnus (age 180/181) accesses the avatar chamber in Praxis to have Will Zimmerman relay a message to Helen Magnus. In 3x11 we learn that because he broke their most sacred laws in order to do so, it results in him then disappearing at that moment from Praxis to go into hiding as a fugitive from Senate Authorities for the next several untold amount of weeks until Helen Magnus arrives to treat Kanaan.
  104. ↑ Episode 3x07 - "Breach": Dialogue spoken by Adam Worth to Helen Magnus.
  105. ↑ Episode 3x14 - "Metamorphosis": Based on the viability of cillobar spores, 3x14 can potentially occur up to six months after 3x10.
  106. ↑ Episode 3x18 - "Carentan": Helen Magnus's 160th birthday has to occur prior to 3x18 due to that episode occurring on 8th October 2010.
  107. ↑ Episode 3x17 - "Normandy": Speculation: Helen Magnus's 160th birthday most likely took place after 3x16 as 3x17 occurs in the month of June, just sixty-six years earlier in 1944 rather than in 2010.
  108. ↑ Episode 3x20 - "Into the Black": Helen Magnus and John Druitt visit Praxis and find it in ruins.

  117. ↑ A plan for season 5 included the return of Ashley Magnus.
  118. ↑ Episode 4x13 - "Sanctuary for None, Part II": Dialogue spoken by Will Zimmerman to Abby Corrigan: Will states that Helen Magnus closed twelve Sanctuaries over the last eight months. The closures are supposedly connected to Helen Magnus's work with Richard Feliz based on Maneuver Delta Epsilon in 4x12; the four recent closures discussed in this exact scene in 4x13.
  119. ↑ Episode 4x06 - "Homecoming": This is a continuity error as Will Zimmerman's birthday actually occurs in the months of late September / early October.
  120. ↑ Episode 4x08 - "Fugue": Dialogue spoken by Gavin Crealy to Helen Magnus.
  121. ↑ Episode 4x13 - "Sanctuary for None, Part II": Dialogue spoken by Abby Corrigan to Will Zimmerman.
  122. ↑ Episode 4x10 - "Acolyte": The number 9:22 is the date of the flights seen on the passenger manifests.
  123. ↑ Episode 4x11 - "The Depths": Speculation: Based on Henry Foss (age ~39) building his FOSSSS jacket, this episode potentially occurs maybe about a week to a month prior to "Sanctuary for None", placing it roughly in December 2011 or January 2012 if "Sanctuary for None" happened in January or February of 2012.
