Readiness Is All - S9-E23

Continuity mistake: When Hunt and Warren are in the elevator, Warren is wearing normal clothes. When the storm into the O.R. Warren is suddenly wearing scrubs. There is no way he could have changed into scrubs fast enough to get to the room before they started cutting the bars off the guy on the table.

Time Has Come Today - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Addison first comes to Seattle, she mentions that she likes Derek's hair. She says it's longer than usual, looks like Russell Crowe. In the flashback of the night he left his hair long like it always is. Actually it seems a little longer in the past than current.

The Self Destruct Button - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: While Meredith and Izzie are in the kitchen discussing Derek, Izzie sets the freshly frosted whole chocolate cake on the counter, but when she takes a seat in the closeup there's a slice of cake already on the plate, and in following closeups the cake is either whole again or back with the cut slice.

Super Grover

Moment of Truth - S8-E21

Continuity mistake: Avery and Kepner are at the bar. Keep looking between them (over Kepner's left shoulder). Right when Kepner says "I'm a soldier" a guy in in the background comes around the corner wearing a dark shirt with what looks like a red vest/sweater. The camera changes to a different angle for Avery's line, and then when it comes back to Kepner for her next line, the guy in the red sweater/vest comes around the corner again. (00:16:00)

Beat Your Heart Out - S5-E14

Continuity mistake: Dixon is upset and rushes off. Bailey follows her into a room to calm her down. When Bailey enters we hear the sound of Bailey closing the door. In the next shot from Dixon's perspective the door is ajar 1-2 inches. Then the next shot from that angle the door is suddenly fully closed. (00:26:00)

Much Too Much - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: In the scene between Preston Burke and Cristina Yang in the locker room, Dr. Burke walks in wearing a brown jacket. During the first shot the collar of his jacket is lying flat. After he starts talking, the collar is sticking up in the back. After he says "I know you," the shot zooms out and his collar is lying flat again. When he says "I know you" the second time, it is sticking up again until the scene ends. (00:27:30 - 00:28:30)

Band Aid Covers the Bullet Hole - S2-E21

Continuity mistake: When Derek is talking to Meredith on the hospital balcony and they are eating a sandwich each, in one shot Derek is taking a bite from his sandwich, then in the next shot he is suddenly holding it down at waist level.

Dr. Meredith Grey: [About her roommates.] They're everywhere. All the time. Izzie's all perky and George does this thing where he's helpful and considerate. They share food and they say things, and they move things, and they breathe. Ugh. They're, like, happy
Dr. Cristina Yang: Kick them out.
Dr. Meredith Grey: I can't kick them out, they just moved in. I asked them to move in.
Dr. Cristina Yang: So what, you're just going to repress everything in some deep, dark, twisted place until one day you snap and you kill them?
