Whine Country - S2-E25

Revealing mistake: After Doug successfully trades vacation days with Roger, it cuts to Doug's IPS truck stopping in traffic. The next few shots were filmed on the streets at Sony Pictures Studios lot. In the shot of the IPS truck's side-view mirror (as the RV approaches), note the signs on the building read "Keaton Building" and "Sound Department Courtyard." After the flashback, another building sign reads "Durante Building." These buildings are located at the north side of the studio in Culver City, CA. (00:03:20)

Do Rico - S3-E1

Revealing mistake: At the start, when Arthur returns the book to Carrie then asks if she'd like to jot down his musings, we can see through the back door's window, and the backyard set's foliage pattern wallpaper is falling off the backdrop. It's visible later as well. (00:02:45)

Strike One - S3-E5

Revealing mistake: In the kitchen, when Doug tells Carrie he knows the strike will end in 1 or 2 weeks tops because he's a Union Member, the blue shelves/cabinet on the wall behind Doug are positioned properly. Then, when Carrie asks him what the strike issues are, watch as the blue shelves move sideways behind Doug (this wall with blue shelves/cabinet is hinged to provide camera access). (00:13:00)

Soft Touch - S2-E22

Visible crew/equipment: At the start, in the shots facing Carrie and Doug while they're in the car, we can see a screen atop the roof on the driver's side of the car with its reflection on the windshield (and its shadow on the car's hood). This is gone in the overhead long shots. (00:00:10)

Swim Neighbors - S3-E22

Continuity mistake: When the beach ball sails over the fence, Doug picks it up and holds it to his face, making his right side of his shirt wet. Throughout that scene, his shirt is dry, and then wet again.

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.

Ssiscool

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.
