My Unicorn - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: When Turk, Elliot and Carla are in the queue for their food in the canteen, look at Jordan's tray in the background, it's got pretty much just a napkin on it. Yet in the next shot, a magazine suddenly materialises from nowhere. (00:01:50)

Agroth II

My Last Chance - S4-E8

Continuity mistake: When JD jumps onto the gurney, there is a light blue bed sheet and pillow on there, but later when he is dropped off where Molly is outside, the bed sheet and pillow are no longer there. (00:06:55 - 00:07:50)

My Cake - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: When Dr Cox throws JD's TV remote on the table, it lands upside down near to the magazine on the middle of the table. However, the next shot of the table shows the TV remote facing the right way up and near the corner of the table. Also the magazine seems to have moved slightly away from JD's beer. (00:18:20 - 00:18:55)

Agroth II

Her Story - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: When Carla says "my woman this, my woman that" look closely at her blindfold thing. The bottom of it is on her hairline, yet in the next shot the bottom of it is on her eyebrows, then in the next shot, its back on her hairline. (00:18:30)

Her Story - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: Just after Dr Elliot Reid says "frick on a stick with a brick", Dr Cox and Dr Reid have a conversation. In between shots Dr Cox's stethoscope seems to change position. Look mainly at the ear piece side and you'll notice it's closer to his neck and sometimes further. Dr Reid's starts off with 1 earpiece behind her name tag and then between shots both earpieces are above her name tag. At the very end of the conversation, they somehow move behind her name tag. (00:15:55 - 00:17:05)

My Monster - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Turk, JD and Dr Cox are talking about women, and how many they've slept with, take a look at the items on the table in the background that Dr Cox was previously sitting on, they appear and vanish. Mainly the cup and napkin dispenser appears and disappears in between shots. (00:15:35 - 00:16:20)

Agroth II

Our Driving Issues - S9-E12

Continuity mistake: In this episode Cole has a mole that is found to be cancerous, the mole is not seen in any other episode. He is topless in many episodes and the mole is not in any other one.

My Inconvenient Truth - S7-E3

Factual error: The Toyota Prius uses an electronic transmission that requires the ignition to be turned on. Since J.D. said that he had no idea how to operate the car, he could not have pushed it from the parking space because he wouldn't have been able to put it in neutral.

Tanngrisnir

My Bad Too - S7-E7

Continuity mistake: After the kid collapses walking across the stage, J.D. and Eliot sit down in the cafeteria and start talking. J.D.'s hands are under the table. The shot switches and J.D.'s forearms are now resting on the table.

My Words of Wisdom - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: Near the end, when Elliot, Carla and Jordan are in the bar, the waitress brings them three drinks; two short, clear ones and a cosmopolitan with a lime. A few shots later, Carla is seen from the front drinking the cosmo. The next shot from behind her shows the drink instantly on the table. The drink switches instantly between her hand and the table several times in the following shots.

My Case Study - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: At the end, when J.D. has found out he is going to Reno, he turns to gloat to the other residents, and Dr. Cox. Snoop Dog Resident appears both in the group of interns opposite Dr. Cox, as well as directly behind Dr. Cox.

Carla: You can deny you like her all you want. But, I know for a fact, that every time you guys are done "playing racquetball" or "having a conversation" or whatever it is you crazy kids are calling it, you like nothing more than to just lie next to Jordan and watch her sleep.
Dr. Cox: It would be impossible for me to lie next to Jordan, she sleeps hanging from a ramp in the ceiling, wrapped in a cocoon of her own wings.
