Grey's Anatomy

The Heart of the Matter - S4-E4

Character mistake: Ms. Bitzer says she's booked a trip to Iceland to experience the sun never setting. While the sun does set quite late there, Iceland is located south of the polar circle and does not have midnight sun. And either way, season four has been established as taking place after summer, so there wouldn't be midnight sun anywhere.

Crash Into Me (1) - S4-E9

Revealing mistake: When Ray is panicking over being in the rig with his dead partner, Stan, and turns to look at Meredith, you can see Stan's eyelashes flutter as he blinks. (00:36:37)

Sing It Again - S16-E20

Visible crew/equipment: When Teddy and Amelia walk over to Koracick he gives Amelia the boy's tumor diagnosis, and as Amelia walks into the patient's room the red T-mark is visible on the floor, at the bottom, left side of the screen. (00:15:10)

Do You Know? - S10-E17

Ring of Fire - S13-E24

Visible crew/equipment: At the start, when Jackson and Maggie react to the fire alarm, just as Maggie says, "All right fine. It's the guy. The bad, escaped rapist guy," the white T-mark is visible on the floor, before she stands up. (00:00:35)

Readiness Is All - S9-E23

Continuity mistake: When Hunt and Warren are in the elevator, Warren is wearing normal clothes. When the storm into the O.R. Warren is suddenly wearing scrubs. There is no way he could have changed into scrubs fast enough to get to the room before they started cutting the bars off the guy on the table.

Time Has Come Today - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Addison first comes to Seattle, she mentions that she likes Derek's hair. She says it's longer than usual, looks like Russell Crowe. In the flashback of the night he left his hair long like it always is. Actually it seems a little longer in the past than current.

Some Kind of Miracle - S3-E17

Revealing mistake: When Alex is talking to Rebecca Pope at the end of the episode, we hear Alex say "Now I know more about you than my friends." Watch Rebecca's left eye on the right if the screen when she says, "That's pathetic." Someone did a bad job of editing the CGI and we see a phantom eye over her left eyebrow.

All You Need Is Love - S8-E14

Other mistake: There are two mistakes when Grey is at the computer trying to figure out why her patient is having seizures. The camera pans out showing Bailey walking up - if you look at the computer it shows a login screen, but when Grey shows Bailey the screen it changes. Next one is when Grey blows up the pic of the taratoma - when they leave the picture on the computer it's actually a brain.

The Self Destruct Button - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: While Meredith and Izzie are in the kitchen discussing Derek, Izzie sets the freshly frosted whole chocolate cake on the counter, but when she takes a seat in the closeup there's a slice of cake already on the plate, and in following closeups the cake is either whole again or back with the cut slice. (00:39:45)

Dr. Meredith Grey: [About her roommates.] They're everywhere. All the time. Izzie's all perky and George does this thing where he's helpful and considerate. They share food and they say things, and they move things, and they breathe. Ugh. They're, like, happy
Dr. Cristina Yang: Kick them out.
Dr. Meredith Grey: I can't kick them out, they just moved in. I asked them to move in.
Dr. Cristina Yang: So what, you're just going to repress everything in some deep, dark, twisted place until one day you snap and you kill them?
