Trivia:
On "CHiPs" (1977), the fictitious Engine and Squad 51 respond to a motor vehicle accident, in the episode titled "MAIT Game"; moreover, it isn't just two pieces of apparatus with the same number - it is the Ward-LaFrance Engine and Dodge Utility body, even shown pulling out of the 51 Stationhouse. However, the crew is not shown because "Emergency!" had already gone off the air. more
Goofs:
Continuity: There are a number of stock footage continuity errors. The major one is the differences in Squad 51, which was always a Dodge pickup, but several model years were used on the show. Most of the street scene footage that shows the Squad traveling was shot in Season 1, so an older model usually appears that doesn't always match the Squad that leaves the station or arrives at the scene. Another continuity issue is repetitive use of the same response footage episode to episode, so the same cars are always stopped at the same spot at a particular intersection. more

The best medical/action drama around., 28 August 2000
Author: lartronic from Akron, Ohio

Even better than modern medical shows like "ER". We've got 2 sides to this, the hospital staff and doctors, and the paramedics/fire-fighters. Jack Webb produced this series, and like his others, is a great achievement. The acting, stories, directing, and just about everything you can think of is top-notch. A wonderful series, one to be treasured.
