Continuity mistake: When Mrs. Epps begs Dr. Morton to tell her the truth about her son's condition, the stethoscope is hanging around Morton's neck with the headset on his left side and the chestpiece on his right side, but then it flips to the opposite way, and then back again, between shots.
Emergency! the Wedsworth-Townsend Act: Part 1 - S5-E15
Character mistake: When Johnny and Roy are in the kitchen and start reminiscing about when they first met, Johnny recalls those days and says "I was working B shift at Station 8's," however, Johnny was actually working at Station 10.
Continuity mistake: When Roy and Johnny are at the construction site with the guy who wants to jump, before Roy walks over to him we see the pompier belt around Johnny's waist has the carabiner hook to his left and the double tongue buckles to his right. Then when Captain Stanley tells Johnny to try and get to the guy from the other side, Johnny's belt is now around his waist the opposite way. In the following shots his life belt flips around a couple more times. Note that their pompier belts have at one side double leather straps which are the two tongue buckles, and the other side has a single strap of leather for the attached carabiner hook.
School Days - S2-E14
Visible crew/equipment: When Squad 51 gets pulled over to help the guy with a snake on his stomach, just as Johnny reaches over to take the broom from Billy, the outline of the lav mic transmitter is visible on the back of Johnny's shirt.
School Days - S2-E14
Character mistake: When Dixie tells Gail to set up in treatment 1, Brackett tells them they can't use treatment 1 because they have a skull fracture coming in, then Brackett and Early head down the hallway to treatment 1, and that skull fracture, Skyle Tyler, has already been lying there being examined by Morton.
Other mistake: During the structure fire at the Atlas Hotel, when Roy and John are with the unconscious man being given proper CPR by civilians, it is too painfully apparent that the man giving rescue breaths is just leaning over the man's face, nowhere near the victim's mouth, particularly after Marco and Chet drop off the stokes.
Continuity mistake: When Squad 51 and then Engine 51 are dispatched to the hotel fire, before going in Johnny's SCBA cylinder has a large arrow sticker and Roy's has a large red sticker, but once inside Roy's air cylinder goes back and forth from having an arrow sticker to the red sticker. Then in a few moments, when Marco and Chet go in with the stokes, both of their air cylinders are tall, flat-top and devoid of stickers, but inside their SCBA cylinders are short, round-top and keep switching from having either an arrow or large red stickers.
Other mistake: When Brackett's on the line with Johnny, who's with the quarterback on the field, Brackett has the third button (out of five) pressed to record the conversation on the tape machine. However, in episode 2x5, "Peace Pipe", Brackett presses two buttons - the third and fifth, when Squad 51 is at the scene of the drunk driver's accident, and in 2x10, "Dinner Date", Dixie presses the second button to record, when Squad 51 is with the little girl whose arm is stuck in the pool drain.
Other mistake: After Roy tells Captain Stanley, over the HT, that he and Johnny may have found something in the flooding storm drain, Captain Stanley uses his HT to contact Marco and Chet (who are driving Squad 51 while John and Roy are down below), and says "Squad 51, Engine 51..," but the subtitles read, "Car 51, Engine 51..." Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
Continuity mistake: When Johnny and Roy are with the elderly man in the burning house, the window is pushed up fully when Mike climbs the ladder in the exterior shot, but when Mike breaks the window with the axe, the window is halfway down in the interior shot.
Other mistake: When the tones drop and Station 51 is dispatched to the "structure fire", there's a closeup of all the guys running from the kitchen and the back heading to the squad and engine, and none of them are actually 51's guys.
Other mistake: When Squad 51 is dispatched to the 'child in a coma', the address is given as "3705 Orchard", but when they park on the building's corner the street sign reads Colfax. As an aside, this is the same location/footage that is used in 2x5, "Peace Pipe", with the address given as "1017 Crocker" in that episode.
Peace Pipe - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: When Johnny and Roy are at the nurses' station telling Dixie about the girdle run, Squad 51 responds to the structure fire right up the street, and we see Roy and Johnny en route without the turnouts, but when they pull up to the house they're both wearing turnouts.
Peace Pipe - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: Treatment 4 is beside the nurses' station, as seen when Roy and John are with Debbie's parents, while the drunk driver is being wheeled through the double doors. Later, when Brackett suspects that Debbie's father is with the drunk, as he rushes to the drunk's room he goes through the double doors to get to the room, but while Brackett's in the room speaking to Debbie's father we can see treatment 4's door right behind Brackett, even though they're supposed to be in a completely different area.
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.
Other mistake: When Station 51 is dispatched to the structure fire in the middle of the night, once they arrive at the burning house, one of the first shots shows a crowd of bystanders, many in their robes. That footage is from season 1, the pilot episode "The Wedsworth-Townsend Act", during the factory fire at the start of that episode.
Continuity mistake: When the guys of Station 51 are dealing with the rescue of the doctor from the radioactive lab, Johnny's, Chet's, and Marco's SCBA cylinders change during this scene while they're all wearing them. Differences such as tall, slim, with a flat top vs short, wide, with a rounded top, and also the writing on the tanks. Marco's even changes between shots, when he exits the lab's doorway.
Other mistake: After Station 51 responds to the 'man caught in an air conditioning duct', when they get on the elevator its metal sliding doors and metal jamb on the lower lobby have scratches and dents on the exterior, and the same scratches and dents are on the doors and jamb, when they reach the upper level.
Other mistake: When 51's guys are watching an Adam-12 episode on TV (in Emergency!'s pilot, Reed and Malloy are real), on that show just after Reed is knocked out, the hitman says "Nate would've blown his stack if I'd let you go," (refers to hitman's partner, Nate), but Emergency!'s DVD subtitles read, "Pete would've blown his stack," (Pete Malloy is Jim Reed's partner). Moments later hitman Nate yells, "I wanna talk a deal," but subtitles read, "I wanna talk to Neil," and there isn't even anyone named Neil.
Other mistake: After being dispatched to the heart attack, when John and Roy have cardioverted the V-fib Brackett asks for another EKG strip, and when Brackett lifts the chart paper to read it, it just shows flatlining, no rhythm whatsoever.
Answer: On IMDB, actress Anne Schedeen is listed as playing Nurse Carol on six episodes from 1974-76.
