6 | * BornLucky: Featured in the video compilation "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85Zocb2O6Oc Top 5 Luckiest Patients]]". |
7 | * TheBusCameBack: Holly's former partner Gavin (who appears in the first two episodes of S1) comes back in S3. |
8 | * CatFight: PlayedForDrama. Several episodes feature women getting into petty arguments which turn into physical fights. However, the injuries they receive can be severe; one woman's eye was hanging out of its socket. |
9 | * DarkerAndEdgier: Compared to A&E's previous flagship programming like ''Series/StorageWars'', this series is very dark and gritty. The success of ''Nightwatch'' ended up shifting all of A&E in this direction, with series like ''Series/LivePD'' being hugely successful. |
10 | * DrivesLikeCrazy: Holly & Nick's patients often complain about Holly's driving, and Nick says it's because she's too short to see over the steering wheel. |
11 | * HalloweenEpisode: S1 E4 and S4 E10 are both set on Halloween. |
12 | * HolidayEpisode: S2 E1 is set on Mardi Gras, which is huge in New Orleans; all of the cast members have to work extra shifts to keep up. |
13 | * LanguageBarrier: A few episodes feature patients who only speak Spanish. Another episode features an East Asian patient who doesn't speak English. |
14 | * NewYearHasCome: S1 E9 is set on New Year's Eve. |
15 | * RealityShowGenreBlindness: Anyone who commits a crime on-camera, apparently unaware that their actions are being recorded. In one case, a man assaulted an EMT who was treating his mother. |
16 | * ShipTease: One of Holly & Nick's patients was a CampGay man who flirted with Nick at every possible opportunity. Both Nick and Holly found it hilarious. |
17 | * TakesTenToHold: One episode features a combative patient who is described as "280 pounds (127 kg) of pure muscle". It ends up taking six EMT's/firefighters to hold him down and get him on to the stretcher. |
18 | * WouldHurtAChild: One episode features a seven-month-old baby who was pepper-sprayed by a stranger for no apparent reason. |
