Propinquity - S3-E20

Continuity mistake: After they load the woman from the wrecked car into the ambulance, Roy and an ambulance attendant are riding in the back with her. In the shots of the moving ambulance, until it's involved in the traffic accident, we should be able to see Roy and the attendant through the windows, but they're simply not there.

Continuity mistake: When they bring the Hermit into the ER, Brackett tells them to take him to treatment 4 and he's wheeled there, but in the shot from inside the treatment room we see that he's actually inside treatment 1.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: Before Old Bill wakes up, Brackett, Morton, and Early are talking in the hallway outside Bill's room, and the hallway is a big, wide open space. After Bill wakes up, Dixie goes out to the hallway to get Brackett, and when they walk into Bill's room we can see the hallway behind them, and it's a fraction of the size it was before, only about 4-5 feet wide now.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Revealing mistake: When the critical boy who ingested the ant poison is being wheeled into the ER's treatment 3, we can see Johnny laughing, and obviously since absolutely nothing about the situation is funny, we know it's Randolph Mantooth just cutting up during the take.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: After bringing Old Bill to the ER, when Squad 51 gets back to the station, in the shot of the squad driving backwards toward the driveway, the engine we see parked in the apparatus bay is the Crown from the first two seasons, not their current Ward LaFrance.

Visible crew/equipment: After Station 51 responds to the unknown type rescue, Engine 51 leaves on another run, but when Johnny and Roy go into the house with the wife of the man who lost his voice temporarily due to the dieffenbachia plant, the bulging outline of the lavalier mic transmitter and wire are visible on the back of her white robe.

Other mistake: After Johnny gets hit by the phantom in the apparatus bay, Station 51 is dispatched to an unknown type rescue at 617-1/2 Kimball Rd, and before the dispatcher even gives the address, Mike has already located the area on the map with his finger.

Computer Error - S3-E14

Computer Error - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: When Brackett's examining the teenager (Donny Most) with paralysis Morton's standing beside him, but in the next shot as Dixie takes the teen's BP, we see Morton standing behind the teen with the student nurse, then Morton's back beside Brackett.

Computer Error - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: When Dr. Early and Marcia's father stand outside her semi-private room, number 104, we see treatment 4 is right beside it. There are two problems with this bizarre situation. First, when Dixie gave Early the lab results about Marcia's possible pregnancy earlier, treatment 2 is right beside treatment 4, not the semi-private room 104. Second problem is that when Early and the parents walk into Marcia's room, in the interior shots we can see that there's a perpendicular wall right beside the doorway to its left, where the hallway ends.
