Continuity: In series 3 Dorothy's son Michael, who is engaged to a woman 20 years older than he, is supposed to be 22. In Series 2, when Michael sleeps with Rose's daughter, Dorothy mentions that he is 29 years old.

Other: In the opening scene showing the outside of the house, the garage and driveway are on the left side of the house. In "End of the Curse," the girls raise minks in the garage, which is accessed from the back corner of the kitchen, thus the garage is actually on the opposite side of the house. Furthermore there are four large bedrooms and at least one large bathroom down the hallway. The hallway shoots off the living room at an angle. There is not enough room to fit all those rooms between the supposed garage and the kitchen and the lanai; all of the rooms would overlap one another. Lastly, the lanai seems to be surrounded on three sides by the house (as is typical of a lanai) but the hallway leading to the lanai, and the way the girls enter from the left, would put it on the very front corner, and surrounded by nothing.

Continuity: In the episode "Bring Up Baby". Blanche says she has had 4 children, but she has never owned a Mercedes. She offers one of her three sons (named Biff, Doug and Skippy)to Dorothy in order to let her keep the car. In other episodes she mentions daughters Rebecca and Janet frequently, and in the "To Catch a Neighbor" episode she mentions a son, Matthew, who is a CPA. That's at least six children by my count.

Other: In the episode where Blanche and Rose became big sisters to two girls there is a mistake the girls make the first time they are in the house. Blanche says she is going to show them make up tricks in her bed room and the two girls go to her bedroom without asking where it is or which one it was while Blanche was still talking.

Continuity: In the episode when Dorothy is trying out for Jeopardy, she is sitting on the couch studying, When Sophia sits down to talk to her Dorothy is looking at a page with just words, It cuts to Sophia and then to Dorothy and the page now has pictures on it. You can still see the corner of the book when the frame is on Sophia and you can see that Dorothy did not turn the page.

Plot hole: Blanche's story about when her husband died, changes through out the series. At one point she was getting a pedicure when he was killed. And then she told a story about how she tripped over one of his shoes when she got the call that he was in a car accident and had died. And in another story she said that he had been in a coma and died.
