Emergency!

Trainee - S2-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Ed tackles with the possible OD at the car wash, the bulging outline of the mic transmitter is visible on the right side of Ed's shirt, above the belt. Then, when the man passes out, the outlines are visible on the sides of Roy's, Johnny's, and Ed's shirts. The mic transmitter's outline is also visible at the back of the deputy's shirt, when he hands Johnny the ID he found in the man's wallet.

Trainee - S2-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Roy, Johnny, and the trainee are with the injured man near the lighthouse, the outlines of the mic transmitters and wires are visible on the back, right sides of both Roy's and Johnny's shirts. It is also visible on the back of the trainee's shirt when they place the man in the Stokes.

Continuity mistake: Just after the paramedics witness the purse snatching, when Johnny and Ed take off after the two purse snatchers, there are four cars parked at the curb in front of the squad, but just before Johnny leaps over the white picket fence, behind him we see that there are now six parked cars in front of the squad.

Visible crew/equipment: While Roy's in the office making out the activity report for the training center, Johnny walks over to Ed who is standing beside the map, and when they're dispatched to the overdose, as they get into the squad we can see two tape marks (one white, one black) on the floor, where Johnny and Ed had been standing.

Continuity mistake: While Ed is in the field with John and Roy, it's the three of them sitting in Squad 51 when they're en route to their destinations, but in some shots of the moving squad Ed is not seated between them, such as when they respond to the cliff rescue. Additionally, after the purse snatching incident, when they head to Rampart for John's hand injury, only one person's in the squad as it backs up to receiving, even though it should be three.

Continuity mistake: When Ed chases after the possible OD into the car wash, Roy sits at the passenger side of Squad 51 to contact dispatch about the sheriff's ETA, but each time it cuts to the car wash employee the squad is empty behind him, even though Roy is still there in his closeups.

Breakdown - S6-E15

Charlie: I think you guys are playing games with me, and I don't like it.
Roy: Now, wait a minute. We're not playing games. We don't play games with the equipment...
Captain Stanley: Wait, hold on. C'mon everybody, look we're all on the same side here, aren't we?
Charlie: I wonder.
Captain Stanley: Charlie, why can't we put the squad in the shop and have us a reserve vehicle here?
Charlie: No, no, Hank. Not until I'm 100% sure that I can't fix it. If there's anything wrong with it. This coffee stinks. [Leaves the room.]
Captain Stanley: You guys playing some kind of joke on him?
John: We didn't make the coffee!
Captain Stanley: Not the coffee, you twit, the squad.
Roy: Cap, there's something wrong with that squad out there.
Captain Stanley: [sigh.] All right, if you say so... I made the coffee.

The Promise - S3-E11

Trivia: During Richard's rescue from the ledge at Rampart, the snorkel that Roy and Brackett climb onto is Truck 127, from Station 127 aka Station 51. Truck 127 is used in many episodes requiring a snorkel, including 1x6, "Dealer's Wild" and 3x16, "Fools." There's a particularly nice shot at the end of this episode, when Engine 51 and Squad 51 are parked parallel to each other, and when Johnny responds to dispatch that Squad 51 is available, Truck 127 drives away between 51's vehicles. Nice touch.

School Days - S2-E14

Question: Who are the two baseball players that walk up to the nurses' station to talk about their teammate and discuss his relationship status with his girlfriend to Dixie?

Answer: I was rewatching a few first season episodes of Charlie's Angels (1976), and in S1xE6 "The Killing Kind," I recognized the same actor. So, to finally fully answer your question, the two baseball players in School Days are played by Rod Perry and Sean Fallon Walsh.

Answer: I took a screenshot of the two actors, with Rod Perry on the right (https://imgur.com/GCW1myD). Hopefully someone will know the name of the actor on the left. Both actors are uncredited in the episode's credits.

Super Grover

Answer: The guy on the right is actor, Rod Perry. Two years later he played Deacon on the 1970s TV show S.W.A.T. (and now I'm humming its theme song). As for the actor on the left, I recognize his face and voice, but I can't recall from what.
