A Midwinter Night's Dream - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the show, Niles, Frasier and Daphne are at Cafe Nervosa. Daphne is standing up talking to Eric the server and Niles gets agitated, and spills sugar everywhere. Eric throws down a dish towel so they can clean it up. The dish towel appears and disappears several times during the scene.

Three Dates and a Breakup (2) - S4-E20

Continuity mistake: While Marty and Frasier are fighting Marty smashes some plates. The shot changes to the living room with Frasier apologizing and then switches back again. However, now all the smashed crockery has disappeared to be replaced by what looks to be a bowl and a tumbler.

Slow Tango in South Seattle - S2-E1

Other mistake: When Frasier is complaining that he is not mentioned in the acknowledgments of the novel, he picks up the book and then slams it down on the desk. It sits face up, near the front of the desk. In the next shot of the desk, we see that the book is face down and has moved back.

And the Whimper is... - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: Early in the show, at Cafe Nervosa, Roz comes in and Bebe asks her to get her some coffee. Roz returns with a paper bag which she puts down on Bebe's right. In the next shot Bebe stands up with it in her left hand, but there was not enough time for it to change from the right to the left naturally.

Duke's, We Hardly Knew You - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: About two thirds of the way through the show, Marty and Frasier are talking in the living room. Marty is sitting in his chair with a glass of milk. One shot shows him with both hands on his milk, and then he puts his left hand on the arm of the chair. In the next shot his hands are around his glass of milk again.

Three Dates and a Breakup (2) - S4-E20

Continuity mistake: As Frasier pushes Sherry towards the balcony, we can see a gold decorative thing on her green purse. In previous shots to this, the gold piece didn't show, because the other side of her purse was facing out. At no time did she turn the purse around.

Head Game - S4-E5

Continuity mistake: When Martin first finds out how Niles cured the basketball player, Niles is getting a drink, and Martin is in his chair. During the shots between them, the remote control on the table next to Martin instantly rotates between angles at least twice.

Three Dates and a Breakup (1) - S4-E19

Continuity mistake: When Martin and Shelly are having a fight, Frasier puts a small bag down, which is yellow on one side and has a logo on the other. He puts it down with the yellow side facing us, and for a several shots it stays like that. However, when Martin is talking about "things that bugged me," you see the bag has inexplicably rotated so the logo is now facing us.

We Two Kings - S10-E10

Continuity mistake: This is a mistake within a mistake: Niles and Frazier are trying to get the wrapped presents out of F.'s apartment and replace them with others, to play a trick on their dad. They are getting completely mixed up, and presents are being taken out and then returned by mistake, mostly by Frasier. At one point Niles has a pile of gifts which he puts down on the table behind the couch - the shot shows him holding them, but the next shot shows a completely different pile of presents, even though it is supposed to be the same pile. Frasier picks this pile up. It soon changes again in the next shots.

Frasier Crane's Day Off - S1-E23

Continuity mistake: Martin and Frasier are having breakfast and Marty is making fun of Frasier's radio audience. In one shot Marty's arms are folding on the table in front of him over his newspaper - in the next shot one arm is stretched out over the newspaper and the other is at 45 degrees angle in front of him.

Frasier: And though washing one's hands twenty to thirty times a day would be considered obsessive/compulsive, please bear in mind that your husband is a coroner. Thank you for your call, Jeanine. Roz, whom do we have next?

Caught in the Act - S11-E15

Trivia: When Nanette tells Frasier she's tired of playing her children's show character, she asks him if he knows what it's like to play the same character for twenty years. By this point, Kelsey Grammer had been playing Frasier for twenty years: eleven on 'Frasier' and nine on 'Cheers'.

Show generally

Question: There's probably an obvious answer to this but is there any actual in-show significance to the 'Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs' song heard at the end of every episode? I ask mainly because I remembered there was one show in particular where Frasier unintentionally scars Lilith emotionally and pretty much cements the end of their relationship over a misunderstanding about scrambled eggs. Were there any similar conflicts over a tossed salad?

Answer: In the last episode, they explained that Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs is a metaphor for the mixed-up people to whom Frasier dispenses his radio psychiatric advice.
