My Sacrificial Clam - S1-E21

My Nickname - S1-E10

My Nickname - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: When Carla says "If I wanted his ass kicked I'd do it myself" and Todd makes the cat sound, Turk has his arm on the couch behind Carla's back. When it cuts his arm is gone. He couldn't have moved it that fast.

My Student - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: In the cafeteria, there is a bottle of water on the table in front of Turk. This vanishes before Dr Cox comes to speak with him. It is not one of the items on the tray that Kirsten removes from the table.

My Sacrificial Clam - S1-E21

Continuity mistake: As Dr Cox is talking to J.D. towards the end of the episode and telling him that he won't let him treat the patient he traded, Dr Cox is putting on his white overcoat. If you look at his collar on the right side it is a little crumpled and not quite straight. The next shot we see over his shoulder and the collar has straightened out. The following shot it returns back to being crumpled up a bit.

Lummie

My Heavy Meddle - S1-E16

Revealing mistake: When Elliot and JD are at the baseball nets, Elliot gets hit by a baseball. If you look closely, particularly in slo-mo, you can see that the ball goes behind her head, and is probably digitally removed from coming out from the other side.

My Blind Date - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When the woman is lying in the MRI scan and says "Does this big metal contraption make me look fat?", she has her hands straight down on her thighs. When it cuts she suddenly fondles her cloak with both her hands.

Mortug

My Old Lady - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When JD is at the birthday party, watch the chocolate on his face. At one point there are two separate bits of chocolate on his left cheek, then the shot changes and they are gone. The shot changes again and they are back.

Guy

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.
