Other mistake: When Roy and Johnny help free the man whose arm is trapped in the pipe, just as the man stands up we can see the boxes of detergent on the shelf behind him, with their brand names covered with black tape.

Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: When Dixie and Mr. Hart are on the elevator, we see the number five lit up on the panel above the door as they head down to the first floor in the ER, where they meet Johnny and the kids, who get on the elevator to head up to the fourth floor. The problem is that the ER is only a 2-storey building.

Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: At the start, when Roy is reviewing the list making sure he got everything, there are two containers of milk on the counter which have their brand names covered. As an aside, watch Chet as he empties the grocery bag and puts the aluminum can in the freezer.
19th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: At the scrapyard with the man who was nearly crushed in the car, when Roy takes his BP the stethoscope chestpiece is on the man's arm in the wide shot, but in the closeup the chestpiece hangs in mid-air not actually touching the man's arm, yet Roy continues to read the BP.

Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: When Station 51 is dispatched to 'man trapped in vehicle', we can see the real Station 127's vehicle is still parked inside the apparatus bay, near the rear bay door.

Daisy's Pick Blind Date - S4-E7
Other mistake: When dispatched to the fire in the theater, the companies called are Station 51, Engine 85, and Station 36, but at the scene of the fire we see Engine 9 roll up and also see firemen with 19 on their helmets. These are shots from previous episodes including 3x7, "Promotion", when Roy and John rescue the security guard at the structure fire.
13th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: At the scene of the vehicle accident, with a raging fire going on, the Chief communicates over the HT with Copter 10, and when Copter 10 arrives and makes the water drop, it is actually Copter 14 we see in all the shots.
13th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: After Station 51 is dispatched to the 'vehicle accident with injuries', in the exterior shot as the squad and engine roll out, we can see the real Station 127's vehicle is still parked inside the apparatus bay, near the rear bay door.
13th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: When John, Roy, and Vince grab the officer who was shot by the sniper and make a run for it, as they duck behind the car, right behind them we can see a city bus just driving on by the lot, directly in the sniper's line of fire, even though that area's supposedly closed off with heavy police presence.
13th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: When Station 51 is at the scene with the electrocuted man, he's dangling from a rope below the second stem of the letter H, in the large sign which reads "HOTEL", above the striped awning. In the shots from above the sign, looking directly down as they set up the ladder, we can see the letter H and the awning, but the dangling man is simply not there in the shots from this perspective, even though we should be able to see him.

Emergency! (1972)
Family Ties - S6-E16
Other mistake: Before the fire in the patient's room, which is caused by liquid shorting out the clock radio, we can see the tape covering the brand names of the baby powder and the clock radio.

How Green Was My Thumb? - S3-E17
Other mistake: When Johnny and Roy take the elevator with the nurse, they take the elevator near the nurses' station, at the south end of the ER wing, and Johnny follows the nurse onto the 4th floor to try and get her name. This is completely impossible considering the actual floor plan of the hospital, since in all of the exterior shots of the ER it's only 2 storeys.
6th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: When Station 51 is dispatched to the woman who fell through the ground into the abandoned well in her backyard, en route there's a moving bird's-eye view as the filming chopper follows 51's vehicles making a right turn. On the ground below, there are two people standing beside a blue station wagon, and one points up to the filming chopper flying overhead.

Emergency! (1972)
Inventions - S3-E22
Other mistake: When Station 51 responds to the incident of the man who fell through the ceiling at his mother's house, the footage of the squad and engine pulling up to the curb of the house is from episode 3x15, "Messin Around", when they rescue Old Bill after he's collapsed in his house.
6th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: After Johnny gets hit by the phantom in the apparatus bay, Station 51 is dispatched to an unknown type rescue at 617-1/2 Kimball Rd, and before the dispatcher even gives the address, Mike has already located the area on the map with his finger.
6th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: While John is searching through the papers for the receipt, when Roy takes the milk carton out of the fridge he pours some into a glass and some ends up spilling onto the floor, we can see there's black tape on the milk carton covering the brand name.

Emergency! (1972)
The Promise - S3-E11
Other mistake: Richard is in room 603 and jumps out of the 6th floor hallway window. In the long shot of the exterior of the building, we see that he's lying on the ledge of the row of windows that are second from the top. The elevator shows 8 floors, which means that he's actually lying on the 7th floor's window ledge.
6th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: During the fire at the paint factory, just after the barrels at the back of the pickup up truck explode, in the next shot we see Marco and Chet manning a hose. In this closeup, another fireman runs up to them and he's wearing a helmet with 51 on it, but it's obvious he's not one of 51's guys, plus Roy and John are with the burn victim and Mike's at the engine. The fact that it's a closeup and we can see perfectly well that he's not actually from 51 makes this too odd.
6th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: After Mr. Winthrop is brought to the ER, there is a closeup of his EKG monitor as it's picking up multiple PVCs, but when Brackett asks him about the tension in his life, the monitor seen behind him is showing a flat line. This happens once again after Roy and John leave the treatment room, just before they move him to CCU.
6th May 2014
Emergency! (1972)
Other mistake: After Roy and Johnny get back to the station, when Johnny takes the container of milk out of the fridge, we can see the black tape around it covering the brand name. There's another container in the fridge with red tape covering its brand name as well.
