Comet's Excellent Adventure - S8-E1
Continuity mistake: When Comet runs after the car, he has his leash on. Then in the next scene, he is still chasing that same car, but he doesn't have his leash on anymore, only his collar. Those things do not just fall off.
3rd Feb 2011
Trivia: The boy who portrays the young version of Arlo Slocombe, Enzo Rossi, is actually Patricia Arquette's (Allison's) son in real life. Arquette directed this episode herself and struggled to find a young actor who looked similar to Kevin Corrigan, who portrays the same character as an adult. Finally she realized her son looked quite similar and asked him to play the part.
19th Jan 2011
Other mistake: In episode 1x7, Barb has a list of all the family members' names and birthdays. On the list, the oldest daughter is a listed as "Amanda Henrickson". Her name is Sarah Henrickson: it's the actress who portrays her who is called Amanda (Seyfried).

Will the Real Fred Rovick Please Stand Up? - S6-E14
Plot hole: Joe says that he and Allison told people they conceived Ariel on the weekend of their wedding, even though they knew that Allison was about five weeks pregnant at that time. In episode 6.15 the plot is all about how Allison is expecting Ariel and there is a lot of talk of how she is their first child and they can't tell anyone about it because they aren't married yet. But in the season two episode "Sweet Child O' Mine" it was revealed that they were going to have a baby once before Ariel, a boy they were going to name Brian, but that Allison miscarried.
Suggested correction: What exactly is the point. She was pregnant and miscarried. So? That's not a mistake.
9th Nov 2010
Character mistake: Episode 6.12, Moving the Chains: Marcus tells House that he and Eric were arrested for stealing a car, he was 16 and Eric was 14. He also says that his brother never did anything criminal after that. In season 1, we were told that Eric was 16 when he was arrested for stealing a car.
14th Oct 2010
Continuity mistake: Episode 6.4, Libra Slayer: In the opening scene, in the hospital, the man leans over the dying patient to hear what he has to say. His cheek is almost touching the patient's lips. Then the angle changes and their faces are suddenly quite far apart.
14th Oct 2010
A New Position for Roz - S10-E24
Continuity mistake: When Bulldog is finishing his speech at the party, Julia looks at Roz. The angle changes and Julia has suddenly turned 180 degrees.
5th Oct 2010
Factual error: When they are watching the prince's wedding on TV, you can see the TV-channel's logo in the corner of the screen. The channel NRK didn't start using this logo until 1996, so the program is definitely a rerun, and not the original airing from 1968 which is when this film is set.
5th Oct 2010
Continuity mistake: In the episode where Fester invents a fabric: When Fester lies down on the parking lot, his head is first pointing upwards, towards a car, then in the next shot he has turned 90 degrees and his head is pointing towards Norman's legs.
21st Sep 2010
The First Temptation of Daphne - S9-E3
Continuity mistake: Martin says that Eddie will find the cricket, and puts him down on the floor so he can begin to search. He places him right in front of the green chair. In the next shot, we see Eddie spinning around on the floor, but the chair isn't visible in the frame like it should be. Instead there's something that looks like a gray stool there.
11th Sep 2010
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Frasier and Lilith meet in the living room, where Frederick has created a romantic atmosphere, Frasier has a long speech about how Lilith is not going to get him back, ending with "I need to be finessed!" and Bebe Neuwirth goes out of character and begins to giggle, before she quickly covers her mouth and pulls herself together. Though Lilith might have found Frasier's comment amusing, it would definitely not be in character for her to giggle like that.
15th Aug 2010
Other mistake: When Frasier enters the apartment, Martin and Sherry are talking in the kitchen. If you listen carefully to what they're saying, their conversation makes no sense. Martin says something along the lines of "Daphne is really a very nice girl" before suddenly, in a very different tone of voice, he says "You're right, we're not getting enough privacy around here". Seems like a big chunk of conversation was edited out.
12th Aug 2010
Trivia: In the book by Julie Powell on which this film is based, Julie mentions that she has tickets to see a play featuring Stanley Tucci. In this film, Tucci plays the character of Paul Child.
4th Aug 2010
You Can Never Go Home Again - S3-E24
Continuity mistake: The flashback is set in 1993, but all the characters look the way they did three years later. Most noticeably, Frasier's hair is short and not long and wavy like in the first season. Daphne's appearance has changed quite a bit too.
29th Jul 2010
Flour Child - S2-E4
Continuity mistake: Daphne asks Frasier about his son's birth and he says that he held Frederick for the first time while Lilith was screaming at him that he would never be allowed to touch her again. But in Cheers, in the episode "The Stork Brings A Crane", we learn that A) Frasier was not present when Frederick was born and B) When he finally got to see his son for the first time, Lilith was not angry with him.
29th Jul 2010
You Scratch My Book... - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: Honey walks over to Frasier, a glass of wine in one hand. Then suddenly she uses both hands to rub his shoulders. Supposedly she gave him the glass because it is all of a sudden in his hand now, but we never see him take it from her.
29th Jul 2010
Trivia: In ep. 1.20, "Fourtysomething", Frasier's admirer Carrie thinks that Bulldog is gay and overcompensating by acting as macho as he does. In ep. 1.24 "My Coffee with Niles", Niles asks Frasier if it means something that he just started using the word "Wow" and Frasier replies that "It means you're a gay man. Your life with Maris was a charade and you should have come out of the closet years ago. Are you going to tell dad or shall I?" In ep. 2.03 "The Matchmaker", Frasier's friend Tom thinks that Martin is gay. These are most likely references to the fact that these three straight characters are all portrayed by gay actors, namely Dan Butler, David Hyde Pierce and John Mahoney.
29th Jul 2010
The Unkindest Cut of All - S2-E2
Continuity mistake: While waiting at the vet's office the first time, Eddie's tongue goes in or out of his mouth depending on the angle several times.

Being Joey Carmichael - S4-E15
Trivia: In several scenes, for instance when Allison is talking to Teddy's ghost in the kitchen or when they're eating, you can see the names "Harlow" and "Enzo" spelled out in magnetic letters on the fridge. These are the names of Patricia Arquette's (Allison's) children. You can see the names separate and together in some other episodes too, but rarely as clearly as in this one.
1st Jun 2010
End Game (1) - S8-E7
Revealing mistake: Boyd has a video-conversation with Linda on the phone she sent him. On top of the screen you can see how long the video will last (1 minute and 3 seconds), showing it's a pre-recorded video, not an actual live conversation.

Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble - S4-E5
Other mistake: In the "Silent film" sequence at the beginning of the episode, the D.A. comes in to take the family's home from them. Allison and the kids gather on the bed, and are supposed to be terrified. However, the actress portraying little Marie begins to laugh at one point. (00:01:02)

20th Feb 2010
The One With The Video Tape - S8-E4
Continuity mistake: When Ross turns on the camera and sits down in front of it, "flirting" with it and drinking wine, what you can see on the little camera screen is very different from when they play the same clip on the TV, in which looks like he was sitting much closer to the camera then he actually was.
9th Feb 2010
Continuity mistake: In the episode when Jess arrives at Luke's, Luke explains to Lorelai that Jess' father walked out on his family two years ago. Jess is 17 at that point, which would make him 15 when his father left. In the episode where the father comes to see him, Luke asks him why he left when Jess was just a baby in diapers, and indicates that he hasn't seen him since.

7th Jan 2010

7th Jan 2010
Plot hole: Since the doctors do not know the identity of the patient, Cole and Thirteen are given the car keys they found on the man and instructed to go to the area where he was found and try it in every car door. When House calls them, Thirteen says, "His car was towed and the tow gate's locked." House tells them to break in to the car impound. Given the only way for them to identify the car was using the keys, if the car's been towed away then it wasn't there for them to try the key in the first place.
2nd Jan 2010
Continuity mistake: When Miss Hannigan, Rooster and Lily are singing "Easy Street" outside in the street, Miss Hannigan beats her fur shawl on the ground, and a large piece of fur falls off it. In the next shot, this piece isn't lying on the ground anymore. (00:50:55)

A Very Brief Encounter - S9-E3

But in season 4 episode 6, "Deliverance", there was a flashback of Nick's birth and we learned that it was Ben who named the baby. He heard someone say the word "nickname" in the delivery room and named his son after that.
10th Dec 2009
Plot hole: In the series we learn that these creatures take a lot longer than us humans to grow up and that they live a lot longer. They mention that the children are about 900 years old, so a grown-up would be more than 1000 (probably 2000). The series is set around our time (1990s/2000s) and Fjellrose and Erke are very old. Yet the film is set about 100 or 200 years ago, you can tell by the way the humans are dressed and the way their houses are built etc. So Fjellrose and Erke should still be grown up, but they are young children. If they are only 100 to 200 years younger, then they should be much older in the film or much younger in the series.
15th Nov 2009
What to Wear When Yachting - S3-E7
Revealing mistake: At the beginning of the episode, when the TV repairman is at the door, you can see that the background behind him is a studio wall - not the front yard we normally see on that side of the house. This effect also appears in many other episodes.

The problem is that when George is holding the phone in his hand it is still making very loud vibrating sounds, like it would if it was still lying on a surface. When you hold a vibrating phone in your hand it doesn't make noises like that.

She couldn't know that there was anything up with him, she left before he heard his son was missing.
