Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman mistake picture

Last Dance - S5-E6

Visible crew/equipment: While Welland Smith and Arty are telling Sully about national parks, Welland mentions President Grant, and just as Sully says, "Yes, sir," the boom mic dips into view at the top of the screen. (00:11:35)

Having It All - S5-E2

Factual error: When Mike is talking with Colleen about women 'Having It All' while raising children, she mentions Dorothy raising four children while running a ranch, when Dorothy mentioned in earlier episodes that she has two daughters and one son (Tommy, who appeared in a prior episode).

Legend - S5-E9

Character mistake: As Preston is calling Sully on the sheriff situation, Loren enters, brandishing a new rifle to Preston, almost right over the baby's carriage. No way in tomorrow would Dr Mike or Sully have allowed this to happen, but have aimed the firearm in another direction, or at least Sully move in front, away from the baby's carriage.

The Tempest - S5-E10

Other mistake: After getting the horses inside the barn, Mike sees the twister and hurries inside the homestead to grab Katie and take cover under the staircase. When Sully and Brian arrive the next morning to find debris littering the house, they call out for Mike, and she comes rushing down the stairs holding Katie, instead of coming out from the staircase where they were safe.

Suggested correction: By morning, the tornado has already hit and its threat is long passed, so there was absolutely no reason for Michaela and Katie to have remained hiding under the staircase. Prior to that scene, Sully and Brian were on their way back home, and when they took refuge from the twister, they released their four horses to instinctively find their own safe place. After the tornado passed, once it was safe to ride again, Brian and Sully needed to first find all their horses, and then continued riding back home. As you said yourself, "Sully and Brian arrive the next morning."

Runaway Train - S5-E1

Other mistake: Toward the end, when Mike is snuggling at the window with Sully, the candle on the wall near them isn't lit. But there is ominous light about them, obviously from the studio set.

The Tempest - S5-E10

Other mistake: Smoke from the burning Thanksgiving dinner starts wafting from the stove just moments before a strong wind from a coming storm blasts through the window. Yet somehow Michaela doesn't notice the smell just moments before going outside with Katie.

A Place to Die - S5-E12

Other mistake: When Sully's wrist gets scraped while moving the examining bed off the wagon, Dr. Mike merely dabs over it with some disinfectant, instead of thoroughly cleansing the wound with a wet cloth before suturing like a normal doctor.

Dr. Michaela 'Mike' Quinn: I could use some advice... from someone who's had experience.
Dorothy Jennings: Oh. Well, don't you worry. It's as easy as falling off a log.
Dr. Michaela 'Mike' Quinn: Remember, I've never... fallen off a log.

Legend - S5-E9

Question: When Matthew goes against Dr. Quinn's suggestion that he needs to rest and heal, and hitches his curse to leave, the sign above him says "Coopering." Shouldn't that be "Coppering"?

Answer: A Cooper was someone who made various things out of wood including wooden caskets and even barrels.
