They already had furniture in the other episodes when they brought Richie home from the hospital.

The Sick Boy and the Sitter - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: In the 1st episode there are about 20 pictures behind the writers desk. Next episode... Gone, replaced with a giant bookshelf and a bunch of scripts. The bookshelf was behind the couch in the 1st episode.
Suggested correction: So they got a new bookshelf between episodes. Or they moved it from another, unseen part of the room.
I fixed it.
