Visible crew/equipment: After Early and Brackett do the tracheotomy, when Dix leaves treatment 4 and walks up the hallway, the outline of the mic transmitter and wire are visible on the back of her uniform top, and when she sees Johnny in the hallway, the outline of his mic transmitter is visible on the front of his shirt over his belt.
Visible crew/equipment: When Station 51 arrive at the movie studio, after the car's explosion Captain Stanley tells dispatch to respond another engine, mobile aid unit, and another ambulance. In the next shot from the interior of Engine 51, the cameraman and camera are visible in the passenger side mirror.
Continuity mistake: While Roy and Johnny are studying, after hearing Roy's positive horoscope Johnny tells Chet his birthday is August 28th. However, in the pilot episode "The Wedsworth-Townsend Act," Dixie has a get-together as a combination celebration of John's birthday and gathering of the supporters of the paramedic program. At the party Dixie offers the hors d'oeuvres to Johnny saying, "You first, it's your birthday," as he takes a mouthful of food. During that week we see people wearing coats, and the many deciduous trees (not the evergreens and palms) in LA County have already lost their leaves, which means it's certainly not summertime, August 28th.
Visible crew/equipment: When Station 51 is being dispatched to 'auto accident with injuries' there's a closeup of Sam Lanier, the dispatcher, and in the next overhead shot of the apparatus bay, we can see the reflection/shadow of equipment moving on Engine 51's windshield, at the bottom left corner.
Continuity mistake: When Roy and John are helping Jeanine get her head unstuck from the table, Jeanine's braid is very loose and coming apart, but when her head is free and she jumps into her mother's arms, Jeanine's braid is braided properly.
Continuity mistake: After Dixie has the talk with Molly about using 51 as a crutch, it cuts to the shots at the movie studio with stunt drivers being chased, and the passenger who has his head out the car window is bareheaded, but in the closeup he's suddenly wearing a knit cap on his head.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Other mistake: When John, Roy, and Chet are standing near the stove talking about how much they enjoyed Hookrader's party, there's a can of cleaning powder which has tape swirled around the can to hide the recognizable design and its brand name, which is Ajax.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Other mistake: While Roy, John, and Chet are talking about the party, and how emotional it all was, we hear Hookrader say, "Lopez," just as he walks into the kitchen where Marco Lopez is sitting, but the subtitles read, "Hello, guys."
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Other mistake: When Johnny and Roy rappel down the cliff to the downed police traffic helicopter, Johnny gets on the HT and says, "All right, Cap, this is HT 51..." but the subtitles actually read, "Hi, Cap, this is HE 51..." After the rescue, Captain Stanley tells Roy and Johnny to get checked out at the hospital, and he'll have Chet drive the Squad in, so Johnny replies, "Okay," but subtitles read that Chet replied, even though Chet is still down below with Marco. Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Visible crew/equipment: After Station 51 is dispatched to "aircraft down," just as the squad and engine roll up on the scene, the reflection of the camera crane can be seen on Engine 51's windshield.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Visible crew/equipment: When Roy, John, and Chet are standing near the stove talking about Hookrader's party, just as John tells Chet, "And you! You with that speech!" they walk towards the table, and the shadow of the overhead boom mic swoops across the cabinets on the right.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Other mistake: When Roy and Johnny rescue the deputy from the wrecked chopper that sank in the water, they emerge from the water soaked from head to toe, but when they are pulled to the top of the cliff, Johnny and Roy are both completely dry except for a few small wet patches on their shirts.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Other mistake: As the fire apparatus are leaving the station for the helicopter rescue, the shot from the front shows doors at the back of the building but when they are leaving it shows a brick wall at the back of the building.
Suggested correction: When Station 54 are leaving for the "aircraft down" rescue, in the exterior long shot from across the street (of the real Station 127), we are not seeing the apparatus bay with a head-on frontal view. The camera is positioned so that viewers see the apparatus bay at an angle, and we are only able to see the very long interior left brick wall, with the doors to locker room/bathroom and the dorm. The back of the building with the rear roll-up door is simply not visible at this particular angle.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Character mistake: When Johnny and Roy are with the heatstroke victim in the polar bear costume, they're on different sides of the victim when Roy says, "Twitching here in both arms," and Johnny looks at her left arm and responds, "Yeah, the same thing over here too." And then it happens again, when Roy says, "Got some heavy spasms in these arms," and Johnny responds, "Yeah, same thing over here."
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Continuity mistake: During the police chopper rescue, three ropes are tied off onto Engine 51's eyes, and when Mike backs the engine up while the stokes carrying Frank is pulled up, in shots facing the engine the three lines are being pulled backwards simultaneously, but in the shots of Marco, the stokes, and the ground, only the line with the stokes is being pulled up, the other two ropes are lying on the ground completely still.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Continuity mistake: During the police helicopter rescue, Roy's, Johnny's, Marco's, and Chet's uniform shoes change to water-type shoes when they rappel down the cliff, and deal with the rescue.
Captain Hook - S6-E8
Visible crew/equipment: When Marco is speaking with the deputy at the site of the wrecked chopper, the bulging outline of the mic transmitter is visible on the left side of his shirt, above the belt.
Visible crew/equipment: During the rescue of the two guys up on the scaffold, when Gage is putting on his pack and harness, an actor's T-mark is visible on the ground, which Captain Stanley promptly stands upon when he asks Gage if he has his handy-talkie.
Continuity mistake: After Squad 51 is dispatched to the 'injured man', when Roy and Johnny get out of the squad, Roy is not wearing his watch as they're walking to the victim while getting hounded by the dog, but in the next shot the watch is back on Roy's wrist as the dog chews on his pants.
Visible crew/equipment: At the scene of the scaffold accident on the side of the building, near the top of the crane, there is a small covered booth that hangs from the crane. We can see the reflection of the hidden second cameraman and his camera in the mirrored windows of the building, as he leans in and out of that booth to film some of the footage we see during this scene.
