Frasier (1993)

To Thine Old Self Be True - S7-E20

Corrected entry: In earlier episodes Niles has talked about how Maris' food issues go back to her childhood, for example that she had to be taken to hospital to be force-fed as a child. But in this episodes, he claims that she was always chubby as a child.

Correction: "Childhood" can be any year before a person becomes a legal adult. It's quite possible that Maris was chubby before age twelve or so, then she developed the issues in her teens and had to be force-fed. Indeed, eating disorders and food issues often start in the teenage years.

Corrected entry: When Johannes comes home and sees his wife and family again there is no mentioning of the baby that his wife lost while he was away. He hasn't been in contact with them since he left when she was heavily pregnant. Surely the new baby (which he doesn't know is dead) would be the first thing on his mind when he came back?

Correction: Just because characters act a different way than you would, or want them to, doesn't make it a mistake. And it's possible they had discussions off camera.

Frasier (1993)

First, Do No Harm - S6-E5

Corrected entry: In this episode Frasier and Niles talk about how they met Marie when they were children because Martin was friends with her father, Duke, therefore, Frasier and Niles would have known Duke as well. But in the episode "Duke's, We Hardly Knew Ye", they met Duke for the first time.

Correction: Not only are some of these statements about the episode wrong, but there's a lot of incorrect assumptions. First, Frasier and Niles never talk about how they met Marie. When Frasier and Martin are talking, we find out that Frasier was only around Marie for one week, when she was six. And there's no indication Duke was around where they would have met him (you're just assuming that). And all Niles states is a nickname they had for her, which they could have had without being around her or her father.

Corrected entry: Gomez and Fester are talking about how Fester should get a wife, and Fester says "For years, I've been watching you with Morticia". He can't have been watching them for years - he ran away before Gomez had even met Morticia, and came back just before Morticia told Gomez she was pregnant with Pubert (who is born shortly before this conversation takes place). Now, Pubert was a bit bigger than most babies at birth, but even so, Morticia couldn't have been pregnant for years. Also, Wednesday and Pugsley haven't aged that much, either.

Correction: He is referring from the time he was returned to the Addams family...we do not really know how much time was between movies.

Annie (1999)

Corrected entry: We know that there are more girls at the orphanage than just the ones that sleep in the same room as Annie. At least 4 or 5 other girls are seen during the song "Little Girls. When Ms. Hannigan leaves Lily in charge of the orphanage she tells her she can not leave the children alone, and so when Lily goes to Mr. Warbucks' home she takes the children with her. But she only brings Annie's roommates so where are the rest? If she'd decided to leave them alone, or with a babysitter, why not just leave Annie's roommates there too?

Correction: Annie's roommates know and care about her. These girls squeeze the truth out of Lily about what's going on, and then make Lily doubt Rooster. The girls who were concerned about Annie followed Lily of their own volition to come to Annie's aid. Lily, being a criminal and admittedly not motherly, left the other girls behind because she cared more about getting her cut than making sure Miss Hannigan wouldn't get in trouble for leaving the kids alone.
