Frasier

The Babysitter - S11-E4

Continuity mistake: After calling Martin the "Sultan of Brunei," Frasier grabs his wine glass with one hand on the top and walks out of the kitchen. In the next shot when he is coming out he is holding it by the neck and there was no time for him to change his grip.

Boo! - S11-E16

Continuity mistake: At the very start of the show, Frasier is pretending to conduct an orchestra with a wooden spoon. Marty says "Boo," and we see the spoon in his right hand. Then Ronee says, "He does scream like a woman," and suddenly the spoon changes to his left hand and is turned the other way. Frasier had no time to change it.

Frasier-Lite - S11-E12

Continuity mistake: When the KCAL team goes for their final weigh-in, Roz grabs some scissors and one of her co-workers cuts her hair - but he cuts it quite low towards the bottom of her ponytail - when she holds up the cut portion, she only has a few inches left to her ponytail.

And Frasier Makes Three - S11-E20

Continuity mistake: Frasier picks up a couple of paper bags full of stuff for a picnic he is going on with Charlotte and her boyfriend - there is a fabric string/tie hanging out of one of the bags as he heads for the door but when he gets there, it has disappeared.

No Sex Please, We're Skittish - S11-E1

Continuity mistake: Roz and Frasier are in his apt. after Julia has left. The small pillow on the far left of the couch is quite smooshed down and almost flat, but when Roz walks over toward the center of the couch, the pillow is much fuller and fluffed out. In the next shot we see Frasier sit down on this pillow; when he stands it looks like it did a few shots before - very flat and smooshed.

The Ann Who Came to Dinner - S11-E13

Continuity mistake: Ann thinks Frasier is taking her to Alaska he hangs his head down in embarrassment. She says "you've got a thing for me" and he smiles and raises his head up. In the next shot he is still standing there with his head hanging down.

Match Game - S11-E18

Continuity mistake: Frasier and Roz are in the Cafe talking about the dating service - Roz is holding her mug by its side in her right hand - it switches from her holding it by the side to holding it by the handle and from one hand to the other several times during the scene.

The Placeholder - S11-E5

Continuity mistake: After Frasier gets his fake phone call at dinner, he puts his napkin down, covering his plate and stands up. When the waiter goes by and Frasier asks for the check, the napkin is suddenly next to the plate and we can see the food left on it.

The Ann Who Came to Dinner - S11-E13

Continuity mistake: While Ann is talking to Frasier near the door of his apartment, his coat is over the arm of the couch. After Frasier closes the door after Caroline's brief visit, the coat is over the back of the couch, even though no one went near it during that time.

Freudian Sleep - S11-E14

Continuity mistake: Frasier and Martin are in the kitchen and Marty gets some chips out of the cupboard next to the fridge. As he leans down to pet Eddie we can see a bag of blue chips still in the cupboard - but when he straightens up to talk to Frasier, we see a red bag in the cupboard, not the blue one (the camera angle remains the same).

Caught in the Act - S11-E15

Continuity mistake: Nanny G and Frasier are in the kitchen of his apartment and there is a tray with three empty wine glasses. Nanette takes one and pours herself some wine; a few seconds later Frasier grabs the tray and goes into the living room, but now he has four empty glasses on the tray when there should have only been two. At no time did he add glasses to the tray.

Goodnight, Seattle: Part 1 - S11-E23

Continuity mistake: (This is for "Goodnight Seattle.") When Eddie is eating the pate with the ring in it, in the wide shot we see that he's finished all the food and is licking the plate clean. It then cuts to a closeup, and the plate is suddenly full of food. Back to the wide shot, and he's licking a clean plate again.

Krista

Murder Most Maris - S11-E8

Continuity mistake: Niles, Frasier, Marty, and Daphne are at Niles' apartment and they have just found out Maris killed her lover. Niles' overcoat is on a chair behind the couch. He decides to go the police station, tells Daphne to stay put, and heads towards the hall on the left. In the next shot he is carrying his coat and heading out the front door with Marty - there just wasn't enough time for him to have got over to his coat and back to the door.

Enemy at the Gate - S10-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Frasier is standing through his sunroof to speak with the drivers stuck behind him in the parking garage, one shot shows Frasier's body and much of the rear window which features a very clear reflection of the boom mic.

Selling Out - S1-E9

Frasier: Roger, at Cornell University they have an incredible piece of scientific equipment known as the Tunneling Electron Microscope. Now, this microscope is so powerful that by firing electrons you can actually see images of the atom, the infinitesimally minute building blocks of our universe. Roger, if I were using that microscope right now, I still wouldn't be able to locate my interest in your problem.

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.
