The Show Must Go On - S11-E22

Factual error: When the woman is giving birth, they show the baby just after they finally got her out. The baby is clean, no blood and other signs of a recent birth are visible. This is especially unlikely since the doctors had to "cut her open" to liberate the baby from the birth channel.

The Show Must Go On - S11-E22

Revealing mistake: Neela is delivering a baby. As the camera moves around a nurse to show a close up of Neela and the baby, you see her holding the "head" about a foot away from the mom and quickly moves it closer to look like it's coming out of the woman.

Robert Romano: The operation was a screaming success if your desired outcome was paralysis.

Trivia: Every episode has the patient list by the nurse's station. On the patient list, different names are mentioned, like Marguiles or Tierney. They put these names there as a spoof of the show.
