Plot hole: In the first episode, Richard Fish invites Ally to join his law firm, saying that he has only recently set it up, yet in the Christmas episode of series one, Elaine says that singing at the party is an annual tradition in the firm and also that they have had at least three Christmas parties. That much time has not passed since Ally joined.

Richard Fish: Sex for me, when it's right it's right. When it's wrong, it's still right. Fishism.
Trivia: Elaine, played by Jane Krakowski, played cousin Vicky in the first "Vacation" movie - her first onscreen appearance.
Question: There's a quote from Richard Fish I've never been able to find exactly online, but I'm sure I'm remembering the gist, I think talking to someone about getting divorced or cheated on: "10 years from now, are you still going to be as mad as you are now? Of course not. So jump to that point, now, and you're over it. Fishism." Can anyone identify the episode/quote?
