Show Biz - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: During this episode, treatment 4 and treatment 2 keep switching places, between being located beside the nurses' station or being located near the ER entrance. For instance, when Johnny is on the line telling Rampart that Dr. Knott doesn't want to come in, treatment 2 is by the nurses' station, but when Roy ribs Johnny about his sex fantasies, treatment 2 is near the entrance. Quite fun to try and keep track of the repeated switching.

Continuity mistake: At the movie studio, during the rescue of the stunt guy whose leg is trapped in the wagon, while both Roy and Johnny are standing in the water, they're wearing water-type boots with whitish, flat rubber soles.

Continuity mistake: After Early tells Dixie about the patient with an unknown illness, in the shot from the hallway, we see Carol taking him into treatment 4, which has a windowless door, but when Morton is examining him in the shot from inside the room there's a window on the door (looks like treatment 6).

Continuity mistake: When the woman from the car accident is brought to the ER, she's put into treatment 4, as mentioned by Dixie and all three doctors, and it has a windowless door, but when Early and Morton are speaking to the patient about the car accident, they're all in a treatment room with a window on the door (looks like 6, the one opposite the nurses' station).

Continuity mistake: When Dr. Early is with the farmer with the unknown illness and talking to Dixie, there's a tall dark item sticking up on the left side of the farmer's buttoned shirt pocket, and then when Dr. Knott stops to ask him questions the item is sticking up on the right side of the buttoned pocket. It could not have simply shifted sides in the pocket, because the pocket flap is buttoned at the center.

Continuity mistake: During the rescue at the movie studio, when Roy and Johnny wrap the line around the stuntman's waist, Johnny's belt does not go through his pants' back center loop, but a moment later after the wagon falls, when they pull the stuntman up, Johnny's belt now goes through that back loop.

Continuity mistake: When Roy, Johnny, and Chet are cleaning the locker room/bathroom while talking about the models' upcoming visit, dispatch drops tones for 'man trapped in a ditch', and then we see Johnny and Roy coming from the kitchen which is on the opposite side of the firehouse.

The Indirect Method - S5-E6

Factual error: When Roy is electrocuted and falls from the roof, after Karen uses the defibrillator paddles on Roy, she lifts both paddles, looks at the EKG monitor and says "He's converted." How exactly could Karen have known that he's converted? It's impossible for the EKG monitor to show anything at all. Either the defib paddles have to be in contact with Roy's body for the "quick-look" to get a reading, which they weren't, or the ECG electrode discs have to be on Roy's chest connecting him to the EKG monitor, and they weren't. As an aside, just watching Marco having problems attaching the air mask, and quickly glancing up towards the camera frustrated, then giving up is priceless.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Charlie: I think you guys are playing games with me, and I don't like it.
Roy: Now, wait a minute. We're not playing games. We don't play games with the equipment...
Captain Stanley: Wait, hold on. C'mon everybody, look we're all on the same side here, aren't we?
Charlie: I wonder.
Captain Stanley: Charlie, why can't we put the squad in the shop and have us a reserve vehicle here?
Charlie: No, no, Hank. Not until I'm 100% sure that I can't fix it. If there's anything wrong with it. This coffee stinks. [Leaves the room.]
Captain Stanley: You guys playing some kind of joke on him?
John: We didn't make the coffee!
Captain Stanley: Not the coffee, you twit, the squad.
Roy: Cap, there's something wrong with that squad out there.
Captain Stanley: [sigh.] All right, if you say so... I made the coffee.

Limelight - S6-E24

Trivia: Keep your eyes peeled for the big sheepdog who runs right into the patio door in the background, when Roy and Johnny are with the sitter who's hyperventilating, due to three very obnoxious boys she's been babysitting, and then the look on Johnny's face as he tries not to break character when he turns to Roy and says "Dumb dog." Also, a few moments later you'll see Roy and his imaginary watch. Absolutely priceless.

The Mouse - S4-E20

Question: The old man that comes in with his wife that can't breathe, the one that the head nurse tries to counsel and tempts him with a cup of coffee. I believe he is Alfred Hitchcock, though his name is not listed anywhere. Alfred Hitchcock is known for his cameo appearances in his own shows and in other shows. Can someone confirm that this is him? This is driving me nuts... It is toward the end of the episode, but I cannot give you times.

Answer: I believe you are speaking of the old man, Mr. Wilson. He's played by J. Pat O'Malley.

Bishop73

Correct, it was J. Pat O'Malley...he also played the grandfather with his grandson when their rocket exploded, and also played "Old Bill" in the episode with Ann Prentiss, where Gage saves the little girl from the burning tree house, and her mother falls in love with him.
