Frasier

Freudian Sleep - S11-E14

Continuity mistake: When Frasier and Marty are talking about going to Ronee's cabin, Ronee is sitting on the right side of the couch with nothing behind her. In the next shot, she gets up and we can see a light brown overcoat. This coat disappears again in the next shot, as Frasier answers the door and Niles comes in, carrying the very same overcoat which he places on the right side of the couch, where Ronee had been sitting.

The Placeholder - S11-E5

Continuity mistake: During the opening credits of the show, Frasier and Roz are in Cafe Nervosa. Frasier has a fabric shopping bag, and in some shots you can see the leaves of one vegetable and in other shots you can see the leaves of two vegetables. These leaves are quite large and distinctively different.

The Candidate - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: The waitress brings Frasier his coffee just as Niles begins to say "Anyway," and she is back behind the counter as he finishes the word. There just wouldn't be enough time in real life to do this. (00:03:55)

Three Dates and a Breakup (2) - S4-E20

Continuity mistake: Niles and Frasier have drugged the rottweilers with some of Maris' pills and Frasier points towards the french doors and says, "The dogs are getting drowsy." We see the dogs dropping to the ground. The next shot of the doors, a couple of seconds later, shows no sign of the dogs, although they were visible from that angle just before that.

Roz in the Doghouse - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: As Frasier is leaving Roz's apartment, we can see her crutches behind her, leaning together and upright against the wall. In the next shot one has noticeably changed position but they go back to their original state a couple of shots later. (00:04:35)

Three Valentines - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: Niles throws a long white cloth over his shoulder and heads for the kitchen. When he reaches the kitchen the cloth is much shorter in back than it was the shot before. (00:04:40)

Motor Skills - S8-E11

Continuity mistake: Roz takes the puppy from Marty and puts her hands around its hindquarters, but in the next shot her hands are up around its front legs. There was no time for any change of position.

I'm Listening - S11-E6

Continuity mistake: Frasier is hiding behind the kitchen counter when Ronee comes in - followed by Marty. Frasier puts his hands, one holding an apple, up on the counter. In the next shot the apple is on the counter, and his hands are draped over each other - without enough time for natural movement.

Shutout in Seattle (2) - S6-E24

Continuity mistake: When Niles and Kit are at Frasier's apartment, Kit does a quick dance with her arms out and tells them Niles is taking her to Euro Disney. A couple of shots later her little purse is back under her arm, even though she had no time to pick it up from the bookcase.

Hot Pursuit - S7-E18

Continuity mistake: When Frasier and Roz are in the hotel room talking, her champagne glass switches from her right hand to her left hand, from one shot to another, with no time to have happened naturally.

A Lilith Thanksgiving - S4-E7

Continuity mistake: Frederick appears in the kitchen to talk to his parents, who are ignoring him. In one shot he is covered with spots and in the next, he only has about half as many. He is supposed to have hives, which I know can appear and disappear quickly, but these look nothing like hives in the first place.

Murder Most Maris - S11-E8

Continuity mistake: There are several bad cuts between shots when Niles and Frasier are on the balcony. Keep an eye on the height of Niles' sherry glass. The most noticeable occurrence is when Niles mentions "detachment" and the shot changes. He is suddenly holding his glass at least a foot higher in the air.

The Maris Counselor - S5-E13

Continuity mistake: When Frasier, Marty, and Niles are having drinks at the end of the show, Frasier says "I think we have a 3-way tie" and we see Marty holding his drink in his left hand - the shot then switches and it's suddenly in his right hand, with no time for a natural change.

Docu.Drama - S8-E16

Continuity mistake: When Frasier is in the boardroom with Roz and her production team, Frasier is writing in a binder, which is on top of a couple of books. In some shots we see a couple of different books in front of him on the table. One of them is called "Mars," which he had put back in his briefcase at the beginning of the scene.

First Date - S5-E20

Continuity mistake: While they are in the living room, Niles is telling Frasier about Phyllis, and he has his bottle of water in his left hand but as the shot changes and Frasier says "Oh, good lord", the bottle switches to Niles' right hand.

Frasier: And though washing one's hands twenty to thirty times a day would be considered obsessive/compulsive, please bear in mind that your husband is a coroner. Thank you for your call, Jeanine. Roz, whom do we have next?

A Day in May - S8-E23

Question: Beyond the obvious (he hasn't gotten over it or is still upset about it) is there a reason Martin didn't want to say anything at the parole hearing? And what was the point of showing this?

Answer: While he hasn't gotten over it, he also took into account what the shooter's mother said. He refused to make a statement either for or against him. He can't forgive the shooter, but he's gotten past the anger.
