Continuity mistake: Carrie enters and says "Bad news", to which Doug replies, "Ya, if it's about being out of mini donuts, I'm aware and I'm not happy". However, in S7 E7 "Offtrack...Bedding" at the start of the episode Doug says he doesn't like mini donuts. (00:00:30)

Suggested correction: Not really, the shot where the tree can be seen is viewed from the front so the tree is actually behind the porta-potty to the left. The view to the cars is directly looking left.

Mama Cast - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: When Doug jumps out of the porta-potty before the rival ice-cream truck smashes through it, the door is open and Doug immediately lands on the ground; but when the shot changes, the porta-potty door is closed and we can't see Doug rolling onto the ground. Also, when the truck smashes into the porta-potty, liquid splashes everywhere; but when we see Doug in the next shot he is dry and no liquid on the ground around him. (00:12:55)

The Minister

Two Thirty - S4-E24

Plot hole: In this episode Arthur scams Deacon and several other parents for phony piano lessons because he doesn't actually know how to play the piano. However, earlier in the series (Art House episode, S1 - E24) we learn that Arthur can play the piano when he temporarily moves out and after his house warming party Doug says to Carrie, "Who knew Arthur could play the piano like that?"

Show generally

Question: Does anyone know if Carrie and Doug had a baby on the show? And also was it just me, or was Carrie pregnant in real life in one season, and they did not write it into the show, or did she just gain a lot of weight?

Answer: To answer the question directly. Carrie and Doug do not have a biological child during the show's main run. In season 3 or 4 finale (cant remember which) Carrie has a miscarriage. Later on in the show they find out Carrie has 1 working ovary. Thus reducing the chance of them conceiving. By the final season, they couple agree to adopt from China and go to collect their child in the show's final episode. While on the flight back from China it's revealed that Carrie is once again pregnant. However the last scene of the show is a flash forward showing that Carrie goes full term with that child and they are struggling with both kids.

Answer: Leah Remini was not pregnant in real life at the time of the series finale in 2007. Her daughter was born in summer 2004 and it was obvious she gained weight and wore larger clothes during that season. So no, her real pregnancy was not written into the show.

Answer: They did have a baby in the series finale. They actually adopted a baby from China, and then at the same time they found out she was pregnant. She was pregnant in real life, but they just covered her up, as much as they could, during the filming of the show.
