Above and Beyond... Nearly - S5-E20
Other mistake: After Dixie gets the call from the dental clinic about the possible MI, she and Brackett take the elevator located at the nurses' station and head up to the dental clinic on the third floor. Problem is that the ER is only a 2-storey building, so that is quite impossible.

The Girl on the Balance Beam - S5-E18
Continuity mistake: When Roy and Johnny arrive on scene with the injured gymnast, as they enter the building in the exterior shot it's the last door that's open, but in the next interior shot that last door is shut, and it's the second to last door that's open.

The Girl on the Balance Beam - S5-E18
Continuity mistake: When Johnny and Roy are at the movie studio, while they're dangling from their lifelines they're trying to help the actress dangling from her own lines, but when she freaks out she drops her wand (yes, a wand) in the wide shot, but next closeup she's still holding it.
26th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When the unconscious boy is brought to the ER, he's taken into treatment 2, with a windowless door, but when Early is doing the lumbar tap on the boy, the door behind Early has a window, and also by the way the room is set up, we know it's treatment 1 he's in, not 2.

Visible crew/equipment: While Brackett is on Copter 10, after the dispatcher tells the pilot that the truck driver has been heard on the CB saying that he's trapped in the cab, repeating the same location, when we see the bird's-eye view of Copter 10 flying below, the shadow of the filming helicopter is right beside the shadow of the Copter 10 chopper, at the top of the screen.

21st May 2014
Visible crew/equipment: After Station 51 is dispatched to the landslide, when Mike pulls the engine over on the side of the street, as Captain Stanley and Chet walk past the front of the engine, the cameraman's and crew member's legs are reflected on the windshield.

Propinquity - S3-E20
Continuity mistake: The cut that Roy receives over his eyebrow during the traffic accident changes characteristics, such as when he and John are at the poker game, it looks considerably better in following shots, then it looks much worse again.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When Mr. And Mrs. Merkle visit the station the first time, Mrs. Merkle's long, pointed blouse collar jumps under and over her sweater repeatedly.
20th May 2014
Audio problem: When Vince and Mike pull the tabletop out from under the car, while Roy is under there with Mrs. Merkle, we hear the audio of Roy loudly saying, "I'm telling you right now, we're gonna have to brace this thing well, this thing will...," but what's oddly funny is that the dialogue is dubbed right over Roy saying, "Wait, wait, let me check her over...," which is a neat trick that he can say both lines at the same time.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When they pull Mrs. Merkle from under the wrecked car in the restaurant, the BP cuff is not visible around her right arm, but in her closeup she has the wide BP cuff around her arm with the gauge facing up, then in the wide shot once again the BP cuff is not visible.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When they pull the man with chest pains from the pickup truck, Dixie says treatment 3, which is opposite the receiving entrance and on the same side of the hall as the nurses' station, closest to the red line on the hallway floor, but when Dixie leaves the treatment room it's at the side of the hallway closest to the yellow line, and since there's a window on its door we know it's actually treatment 1 that he's in, not 3.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: At the restaurant, when they begin to work on getting Mrs. Merkle out from under the car, Vince sets the Biophone down on the table, and there's a netted, red glass candle on the table, but in a following closeup the candle's net has vanished and it's pinkish clear glass now. Other items on the table change as well.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When Marco and Chet use the jaws to lift the car off the victim, Roy begins to get her vitals, then it cuts to Captain Stanley on the Biophone saying, "Vitals second victim, pulse is 120, respiration's 30, she's pale and clammy," but it's not until quite a few shots later that Roy actually shouts those vitals to Captain Stanley.
20th May 2014
Character mistake: At the restaurant, when Captain Stanley's on the Biophone with Rampart, Brackett asks, "Is there any evidence of external hemorrhaging on your second victim?" and then Cap responds, "We can only see superficial cuts at this time... Pupils are equal and reactive, negative on the IV at this time," as if Brackett ordered an IV, but Brackett never said anything to Squad 51 about any IV.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: After Roy finds Willy, when he calls Captain Stanley to help get Willy out, Roy's on Willy's left and Captain Stanley's on his right as they rush out, but in the next shot they've switched, Captain Stanley is now on Willy's left and Roy's on his right, just before the explosion.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When Karen is assigned to ride along with Squad 51, once they leave the station, en route to the incidents there are only two people seated in the squad instead of three.
20th May 2014
Continuity mistake: When Squad 51 is dispatched to 'man down', as the squad heads out of the apparatus bay, the engine we see parked in the bay is the old Crown from seasons 1 and 2, instead of their current Ward LaFrance.
20th May 2014
Revealing mistake: At the house fire, after Roy and Johnny go upstairs to rescue the invalid woman, Captain Stanley and Chet head to the front door, and just before Cap kicks in the front door, we can see that the door isn't actually closed, it's just ajar.
20th May 2014
Pressure 165 - S5-E7
Continuity mistake: At the decompression chamber on Catalina Island, after John and Roy introduce themselves to Dr. Scott, the doctor removes the stethoscope from around his neck and puts it down, but in his closeup it's still around his neck, then in the wide shot it's gone, only to return in closeup again.
