Show generally

Other mistake: On the exterior front shots of the house you see the front door with three vertical windows. But on the interior shots it is just one window.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In front shots of the house you see that the garage is in the front and opens to the street, but the garage door is behind the house entirely. It seems to open in a back alley or private entrance way. The way it is shown in establishing shots, it can not be open to the front street at the front of the house.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In many episodes, scenes are shot on the front porch. It is often shown as a large porch that spans a great deal of the front of the house. But shots of the house exterior from a distance show a small set of stairs with very little space near the door. This isn't a porch on the back of the house as it has been shown to only be door to a small yard.

Continuity mistake: Outside shots of Coopers, upper half of each door has 9 windows. 3 sets of 10 windows on either side of doors. Inside Coopers, main doors are all glass and no windows on either side.

Question: Has Carrie's sister, Sara, ever been mentioned again after the first few episodes, and why was she taken off?

Answer: Sara hasn't been mentioned in later episodes, and it suggested in later episodes that she never existed, and that Carrie is an only child. Kevin James stated that the producers couldn't think of an good plots to use with Sara, so they left her out.
