Continuity mistake: In the episode where Big returns from Paris, Carrie meets him at his apartment with a beret and 2 McDonalds bags. She says she got a Big Mac and a Filet O'Fish. She asks him which one he wants, holding the Big Mac in her left hand and the Filet O'Fish in her right. Instantly the sandwiches switch hands in the next shot as Big walks to the right.
Continuity mistake: When Big puts his suitcase on the bed, Carrie's left arm grabs a mug to the left of her leg. A shot later it's between both legs.
Continuity mistake: The splattered burger on the painting changes positions between shots.
Continuity mistake: Near the start Miranda opens a book. A second later, from a different angle, she opens it again. (00:05:58)
Continuity mistake: When Miranda is on the street looking for books and meets the reader, the passers-by behind are not continuous. Check the man in a plaid blue shirt.
Continuity mistake: Carrie takes out 2 french fry containers. Then from the opposite angle she takes out one more, but from a wide angle there are only two containers on the counter. (00:19:15)
Continuity mistake: When Big and Carrie are arguing in the kitchen, after she smashes the burgers, the french fries container and the purse move around between shots.
Answer: I'm a long-time fan of the show, having re-watched it many times, and I definitely remember slightly different dialogue at the end of that episode than what's on my DVD. I'm afraid I have no idea why this change might have been made or any other info, but you're not insane.
