Emergency! (1972) - 44 mistakes in entire show

Continuity: Season 2, episode 9, 'Women': Gage and DeSoto arrive at the apartment complex, home to the guy trapped in the couch. They park the vehicle and walk on the gated balcony to the apartment. In the exterior shot, when they enter the doorway the inside wall to their left is bare and the corner of the balcony's iron gate is to the doorway's left. Next interior shot, now there is a large painting on that previously bare wall and the iron gate is directly in front of the door. When they leave, their vehicle is farther away, positioned differently.

Continuity: Across whole show: In many of the interior shots of the paramedic cab, as it heads to the destinations, there is a rear view mirror on the windshield. In all the exterior shots there is no rear view mirror.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 4, 'Cook's Tour': At the station, when Gage and DeSoto are eating the meal DeSoto prepared, the sealed milk container is suddenly open and then sealed again, between shots. It changes position as well.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 6, 'Dealer's Wild': When the firemen cover the tanker in foam, the paramedics and ambulance drivers extract the tanker driver and place the patient on the stretcher they all get covered in foam, including the stretcher. Next shot, the stretcher, the patient and the men are all clean.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 7, 'Nurses' Wild': When Gage rides in the ambulance with the cardiac and gunshot patients, the windows between him and the drivers are opaque glass. In the next exterior shot, as they drive down the street, those interior windows are transparent.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 8, 'Publicity Hound': When John first explains how to rescue the little girl in the hole, he wraps his left hand around his right wrist, but in the next shot it's his right hand that's around his left wrist.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 10, 'Dilemma': Responding to the elevator call, in the overhead shot, Rescue Squad 51 pulls up adjacent to the street awning when Gage and DeSoto get out, but in the next ground shot the Squad is 20-25 feet farther down.

Continuity: Across whole show: When Squad 51 is dispatched and headed to their destination, interior shots looking out the windshield are shown. It is only in these shots that the Dodge truck's red hood has vents on its right and left sides. There is no such thing in any exterior shots of Squad 51. The hood's style also changes.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 3, 'Botulism': When DeSoto and Gage arrive at Rampart their black helmets are not hanging in Squad 51, when they enter the hospital. A moment later, when they're dispatched, both helmets are hanging in their proper place behind the seat. The distance between the squad and ambulance has also increased.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 4, 'Cook's Tour': When Squad 51 arrive at the house with the woman in labor, first there is a wideshot of the home and front yard. In the next close-up, the actual style of the house changes - note the roof and its three dormers, and bushes appear/disappear.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 4, 'Cook's Tour': At Rampart, after delivering the baby, when Gage flirts with the two nurses the amount of soda pop in the nurse's bottle increases considerably between shots.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 6, 'Dealer's Wild': When Frankie flies the Cessna, he places an oxygen mask on his father. The style of the mask changes from either a round, large type, to a smaller, square type.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 6, 'Dealer's Wild': When Engine 51 and Squad 51 are dispatched to the first call, both vehicles change their appearance from the first shot as they leave the firehouse, the shot en route, and when they reach their destination.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 6, 'Dealer's Wild': When Frankie lands the Cessna, the red seatbelt is in place behind him. When Gage and DeSoto reach the plane that seatbelt has been pulled across the side wall, over the door, with its end pushed between the windshield and ceiling. Done deliberately so Gage can enter that door unhindered.

Deliberate "mistake": Season 1, episode 6, 'Dealer's Wild': At the stationhouse, Gage is washing dishes and talking about his idea for a new poker game. In this shot the camera is positioned behind the kitchen's top/lower cabinets and sink, facing Gage. We see the back side of the cabinetry and the paper towel dispenser, which hangs over the sink, is gone.

Continuity: Season 1, episode 6, 'Dealer's Wild': When Gage plays the new game of poker with Kelly, the entire left side of the table is visible as the two begin. Next shot, DeSoto is suddenly sitting at that end, with an additional cup and saucer, opposite Kelly and Gage.

Visible crew/equipment: Season 1, episode 11, 'Hang up': At Rampart, when Dixie walks over to Dr. Brackett, who stands behind the station, the tape mark is visible on the floor, just before she steps precisely on it.

Continuity: Season 2, episode 1, 'Decision' (aka 'Problem'): At the stationhouse, when the captain draws the diagram of the plastics company set-up on blackboard, the chalk drawing differs between shots.

Continuity: Across whole show: On the front end of Squad 51's hood, the letters of the word 'DODGE' appear either in silver or in red, or sometimes it's not there altogether.

Revealing: Across whole show: Squad 51 has a flashing light-bar mounted on the roof of the vehicle. There is about 4-5" of space between the length of the light frame and the roof, which means that Squad 51's surrounding environment is easily visible through that gap in normal shots. The hiccup here are certain close-ups of Gage and DeSoto while they're 'driving', because that gap is covered (with red to match the vehicle) and sometimes, when it's daylight, the gap is dark. The same thing happens with the space behind the cab unit (seen through the window), with the red blocking the opening.
