Insanity Epidemic - S6-E14

Visible crew/equipment: When Station 51 is on scene at the freeway accident, after the two girls are rescued from the wreck, when the explosion occurs Roy and John dive to the ground, and as the camera zooms out we can see the top of the location's array lighting unit, just past the engine's hose bed at the bottom left corner.

Revealing mistake: At the gas station, when the pump sparks and catches fire, we can see that it's not gasoline on the ground with the water from the fire hose, but instead it's floating thick gobs of stunt fire gel with burning flames.

Other mistake: While Charlie is trying to figure out what's wrong with the squad, when Captain Stanley, Roy and John are sitting around the table, there's a can of scouring cleanser which has yellow tape covering the "a" and "x" so all we see is the "ja" on the can, in order to hide its brand name, which is Ajax.

Visible crew/equipment: When Charlie's at the station, complaining that every time one of the squads breaks down it's only crying out for mercy against the drivers, and that firemen are the worst thing to happen to the squads, we can see the reflection of the boom mic on the windshield of Squad 51.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: While Charlie is finishing up on the squad's engine, Captain Stanley hands Johnny the address in the canyon that has overgrown weeds, and when Johnny packs up the toolbox, Charlie holds out the roll of electrical tape and the combination wrench, with its open-end up. However, in the next shot the only thing Charlie holds out is the wrench, but with its box-end up.

Visible crew/equipment: After rescuing the injured worker from the top of the sky-tower at Oceanland Park, when Mike has a problem starting 51's engine, we see reflections of array lighting on the squad's surface. And when Captain Stanley moans that he'll have to call Charlie, he stands in front of the engine and calls out, "Why me?" and one of the location's array lighting units is visible at the left side.

Audio problem: When the guys reach the top of the tower ride at Oceanland Park, we hear Captain Stanley say, "Kelly, you go up on top and throw the tag line over the side, we'll take the stokes up that way," but Cap's mouth is saying something entirely different.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Visible crew/equipment: After Johnny and Roy are called back into the home of the young couple, who were issued the fire-code violation ticket, when Roy is on the Biophone with Rampart, the bulging outline of the mic transmitter is visible at the left side of Roy's shirt, just over his belt.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Visible crew/equipment: When the guys are on the tower ride during the rescue, the shadow of the chopper (and its rotating rotor blades) doing the aerial filming becomes visible, when the ride reaches the bottom. Then the shadow of the entire chopper moves in directly in front of the ambulance, as they load the ambulance.

Continuity mistake: When Roy and Johnny get to the address in the canyon that has overgrown weeds and shrubs, in violation of county ordinance, Johnny is empty-handed when they knock on the front door, but when they're told to come in Johnny is now holding the large fire-code violation ticket booklet.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: After Station 51 is dispatched to Oceanland Park, when the engine and squad drive through the parking lot and pull up in front of the sky-tower, the entire left side of the lot is completely empty, but in the overhead shot as they head to the top of the sky-tower for the rescue, that side of the lot is filled with buses, cars, and other vehicles.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Visible crew/equipment: When Squad 51 stalls and the guys call for assistance, when Charlie shows up and walks over to the squad, the reflection of the camera rig tracking backward can be seen in the squad's vent window. The reflection of location set lighting is also visible on the spotlight and squad.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: When Charlie notices the scrapes on Squad 51's tire and complains that its drivers are messing with the squad's alignment, note that the scrapes' positions change twice, which means that the tire has rotated, even though the squad has not moved since the start of the scene when Chet walked over.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: After Charlie checks the squad's engine, and replaces the adhesive bandage on the wire with proper tape, Charlie places the tape roll back into the tool box, but when John collects the rest of the tools lying around, Charlie gives him the role of tape, which is out again.

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.

School Days - S2-E14

Question: Who are the two baseball players that walk up to the nurses' station to talk about their teammate and discuss his relationship status with his girlfriend to Dixie?

Answer: I was rewatching a few first season episodes of Charlie's Angels (1976), and in S1xE6 "The Killing Kind," I recognized the same actor. So, to finally fully answer your question, the two baseball players in School Days are played by Rod Perry and Sean Fallon Walsh.

Answer: I took a screenshot of the two actors, with Rod Perry on the right (https://imgur.com/GCW1myD). Hopefully someone will know the name of the actor on the left. Both actors are uncredited in the episode's credits.

Super Grover

Answer: The guy on the right is actor, Rod Perry. Two years later he played Deacon in the 1970s TV show S.W.A.T. As for the actor on the left, I recognize his face and voice, but I can't recall from what.
