Other mistake: Brackett has Johnny and Roy in his office to listen to recordings on two cassette tapes - the first of 51's transmission with Rampart, and the second of 49's transmission with Pediatric Clinic. Brackett plays the first tape, pops it out and then plays the second tape. The problem is that when Brackett puts the first cassette tape back in the player, it's been rewound, even though Brackett never actually rewound the tape.
Visible crew/equipment: When Squad 51 is dispatched to the car on top of a roof, it cuts to John and Roy driving in the squad as John responds to dispatch, and the reflection of the filming vehicle is visible on the squad's surface.
Visible crew/equipment: When Roy and Johnny are dispatched to the plant with an 18 yr old whose arm is caught in a machine, the outlines of the mic transmitters are visible on the left side of Johnny's shirt, when he's on the Biophone, and on the left side of Roy's shirt, when he's putting the tourniquet on the 18 yr old.
Visible crew/equipment: After Dianne's OD, once she passes out and Johnny begins to work on her and inserts the esophageal airway, the bulging outlines of the mic transmitter and wire are visible on the back of Johnny's shirt.
Visible crew/equipment: When Roy and Johnny leave Rampart and are heading back in the squad, about 16:40 minutes in, as they are discussing whether Roy has told his wife about house hunting, you can see two signs on the ceiling of the squad's cab. The signs say 'Emergency Saturday 8PM Rehearsal Mark VI Prod'. Possibly they are magnetic signs for the squad doors so people don't mistake the squad for a real fire department vehicle? (00:16:20)
Other mistake: On scene at the traffic accident, when the woman and the boy with non-serious injuries are seated at the back of the ambulance, neither Roy or Johnny are going along with them to Rampart, yet Johnny puts the drug box inside the back of the ambulance with them, and the ambulance drives off. With their drug box! Captain Stanley even says that he'll advise dispatch that they're available for a run at the scene, while the guys will be looking for the dog.
Visible crew/equipment: While Roy and Johnny are climbing up to rescue the boy on the bridge, there's a closeup of the boy as he breathes heavily. When this shot pans to the right we see Roy (his stunt double actually) place the rope behind his back, and a mysterious dark gloved hand quickly appears behind Roy (and it's not Johnny's hand).
Visible crew/equipment: When Gage and DeSoto are driving away from Rampart, discussing DeSoto's possible purchase of a new house, dispatch calls about a traffic accident. In this exterior closeup shot of Squad 51, the reflection of the camera's flatbed vehicle is visible on Squad 51's red surface.
Continuity mistake: Squad 51's lightbar has a center chrome piece which has slats at the front and is solid at the back. When the squad's dispatched to the vehicle accident with the two student drivers, on scene the lightbar's chrome center is on backwards, it's solid at the front for some inexplicable reason.
Visible crew/equipment: After Roy and Johnny speak to Chet's friend the realtor, when Station 51 is being dispatched to the accident on Harbor Freeway, in the overhead shot of the apparatus bay, we can see the shadow/reflection of production equipment moving on the engine's windshield.
Visible crew/equipment: When Station 51 is dispatched to the rescue on Johnson Canyon Bridge, just as Engine 51 rolls out of the apparatus bay, the reflection of array lighting and two reflector screens are visible on the engine.
Continuity mistake: After Roy gets his leg bandaged at Rampart, as he and Johnny exit to their truck, they suddenly get haircuts. Looks like a shot from an earlier season.
Continuity mistake: When Station 51 is dispatched to a structure fire (with the two girls trapped upstairs) the address given is 1911 Harper Ave, but when they reach the house with the fire, directly across the street that house number is 1637.
Emergency! the Wedsworth-Townsend Act: Part 1 - S5-E15
Character mistake: When Johnny and Roy are in the kitchen and start reminiscing about when they first met, Johnny recalls those days and says "I was working B shift at Station 8's," however, Johnny was actually working at Station 10.
Visible crew/equipment: When Brackett's helicopter takes off the filming helicopter can be seen through the window. (00:03:45)
Visible crew/equipment: After landing at the base camp, when Brackett and the others walk away from Copter 10 we hear the comment, "The coffee's lousy but the food's great," then we get a bird's-eye view of the base camp, and can see the moving shadow of the filming helicopter at the lower right corner of the screen. (00:06:20)
Visible crew/equipment: After Engine 51 and Copter 10 are dispatched to the "traffic accident with injuries" Engine 51 is instructed to switch to frequency 3, and when Copter 10 takes off with Brackett, the moving shadow of the filming helicopter is visible near the shadow of Copter 10 chopper. (00:09:10)
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. (00:11:35)
Visible crew/equipment: During the fire late at night, after Johnny and Roy run to the burning house, when Captain Stanley tells Chet to get the exposure and later warns to watch for spot fires, the moving shadow of the cameraman/camera is visible on the ground, right beside Captain Stanley's shadow.
Visible crew/equipment: At the site of the vehicle accident, the outlines of the lavalier mic and wire are visible on the back of Roy's shirt, particularly when he's with Eddie as his father's being taken in Copter 10 to Rampart.
