Character mistake: When Johnny is at the hospital, having a vision of his mother, Gene Purdy and Sarah is waiting for news of him following his accident, he states that a vision earlier was related to his accident 'Nine years ago'. Later, when he is in the ambulance on the way to where his accident occurred, he asks the paramedic if it was the same ambulance. The paramedic replies, 'Yeah, I've been driving the same rig for nearly eight years'.

1 character mistake - chronological order
Continuity mistake: When Dana and Johnny are drinking wine, the amount in the glasses change between shots. Also whenever they pretend to drink, if you watch closely the liquid in the glasses doesn't even so much as touch their lips when they drink.
Johnny Smith: We've put a man on the moon, but we haven't come up with a hospital gown that doesn't totally humiliate you.
Trivia: Guest star Ken Pogue also starred in the 1983 movie The Dead Zone, playing Greg Stillson's future Vice President.
Question: Which episode aired first, "Unreasonable Doubt" or "Netherworld"? I have the season 1 DVD set, and "Netherworld" is listed as episode number five, but in episode guides I've seen, "Unreasonable Doubt" is.

Chosen answer: Unreasonable Doubt aired as the fifth episode, on July 14 2002, with Netherworld airing as the eighth episode on August 4th. One possible explanation is that the networks are sometimes known to air episodes out of their actual production order. In cases like this, the DVD release usually uses the production order, thus placing the episodes in the order which they were intended to be watched.
