Emergency!

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When Station 51 is dispatched to an 'unknown type rescue', the woman who opens the door tells them she didn't call, and when Roy asks her if he and Johnny can check on her sick husband, Roy's second shirt button is open and his undershirt is visible, but in the next shot it's buttoned up again.

Continuity mistake: At the start of the episode, after Chet takes a spoonful of hot cheddar cheese the bowl is near his plate, but when it cuts to facing the other guys that bowl is on the other side of the table near Marco, then back and forth again.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When the boy who ingested ant poison is laid down on the gurney, the safety belt is wound around the gurney's side bar and clasped, but when exiting the house and loaded into the ambulance the safety belt is directly around the boy.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When Johnny goes to the closet to get the mop, because he's 'latrine officer of the day', he gets hit by the phantom, and all the guys run out of the kitchen to see Johnny wet again, so when dispatch drops the tones they all head for the vehicles and Captain Stanley removes his jacket. Then next shot all the guys are running out of the kitchen, as if they were all still there, and Stanley is wearing his jacket.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: When Old Bill is wheeled into treatment 3, there's a pillow under his head and the gurney he's lying on has grey trim, horizontal bars under the bed and flat steel plates over the wheels, but when it cuts to inside treatment 3 as he's brought in, the pillow has vanished and the entire style of the gurney he's lying on is completely different.

Continuity mistake: After Station 51 is dispatched to 'man down' and realize it's Old Bill when they look through the window, when Roy and Johnny climb through the window their gear is handed in to them, and John takes the drug box with his left hand and Biophone with his right, but in the next interior shot John's taking them with the opposite hands.

Messin' Around - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: Before Old Bill wakes up, Brackett, Morton, and Early are talking in the hallway outside Bill's room, and the hallway is a big, wide open space. After Bill wakes up, Dixie goes out to the hallway to get Brackett, and when they walk into Bill's room we can see the hallway behind them, and it's a fraction of the size it was before, only about 4-5 feet wide now.

Continuity mistake: After bringing Old Bill to the ER, when Squad 51 gets back to the station, in the shot of the squad driving backwards toward the driveway, the engine we see parked in the apparatus bay is the Crown from the first two seasons, not their current Ward LaFrance.

The Mouse - S4-E20

Revealing mistake: At the apartment complex fire, after Johnny is knocked unconscious by the explosion, when the Pasadena fireman finds him and has to lift him up, it's funny how even though Johnny's unconscious we can see that he actually helps to stand himself up, so the fireman can lift him up and carry him out.

The Game - S6-E1

Trivia: It's in this episode that the Heimlich Maneuver is used for the first time by the paramedics. At the USC game, when a guy is choking on a hot dog, John and Roy are called, and John uses the Heimlich. Up until season 6 we've seen the guys use other methods, such as the ChokeSaver which look like huge white tweezers, to remove obstructions in an airway, as seen in 4x9, "Foreign Trade."

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.
