All in the Family - S6-E14

Character mistake: This has happened a few times before on this show. At the beginning of the episode, they are having a very loud party in the ER. There is no possible way this could ever happen in a real hospital. Even during an extremely quiet period, which rarely happens at County General, it would be extremely rude and unprofessional for patients. There's no way Kerry would be OK with such activities.

All in the Family - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: This episode is an instant continuation of episode 13. At the beginning of the episode, Kerry is walking in and asks if Mark is still on. Carol says he left at 8 for a double date. However, in the last episode, Mark was already at a restaurant with Elizabeth and their parents when Abby pronounced a patient's T.O.D. As 19:19.

Be Still My Heart - S6-E13

Visible crew/equipment: When Carol and Luka follow Robbie to the trauma room with his mother's body they both stop at the doorway to watch Robbie, then just as the camera moves from behind Carol and Luka to in-between them zooming in on Robbie, the reflection of the moving boom pole and mic is visible on the glass behind Robbie.

Be Still My Heart - S6-E13

Continuity mistake: When young Robbie stands at the doorway of the trauma room with his father's body, the green door to the back supply cabinet is wide open and the floor is relatively clean, but when Robbie stands beside his father there are changes such as that cabinet door is closed, and the floor is littered with used latex gloves, etc. Then the cabinet door is wide open again when Carol and Luka walk in.
