Two Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - S6-E7

Corrected entry: In the scene where Jack and Janet are sitting on the sofa with the doctor, Janet offers the doctor some nuts from a bowl. Then take a look at Janet's face. She begins to laugh so she lowers her head and the camera immediately shoots over to Jack who realizes the goof and adlibs something to give Janet time to get into character again.

Correction: On the DVD set of this episode (which I doubt is different than what aired, but I could be wrong), after Janet offers the "nuts", she hangs her head in shame. The camera does not shoot over to Jack, instead Janet goes into some dialogue about how she shouldn't have said said a thing and instead asks if he'd like cheese. During this time, Jack says nothing to either of them until he tells Janet "Good job!" for getting out of the situation, and tells Janet to not offer any more nuts and to not offer crackers.

Correction: Jack is being as overtly obnoxious as can be, and the "Tammy" was quite deliberate on his part. Jack also did not pronounce Terri correctly, but instead pronounced it like "Teary" just to emphasize the obnoxious behavior (when Jack feels bad while holding the seltzer bottle he pronounces her name correctly).

Super Grover

I respectfully disagree with that synopsis - being obnoxious doesn't mean you purposely mispronounce a name. Seems that if it was on purpose, one of the cast (in character) would have corrected him. Some things slip through editing due to time frames and reshoots.

Correction: This has already been submitted and has been sitting in the corrections section for some time with a few different answers. Nobody knows the real answer but some good possibilities have been submitted.

Correction: Jack is supposed to call her Tammy because he is trying to get rid of her.

Correction: That reasoning doesn't sound right. He was trying to get rid of her-yes, but it seems more likely John Ritter simply made a mistake in the script but it was not spotted or corrected due to the fact the producers of the show rarely allowed retakes so many ad-libs and errors were sometimes left in.

Correction: I agree this mistake is valid. While there was a line in the beginning where he jokingly says "what's your name again", that was part of the act as if she was a random volunteer. But then he calls her his "lovely assistant, Teri", then called her Tammy, but then once again calls her Teri during the "act", before he shot ink on her dress.

Up in the Air - S6-E25

Revealing mistake: During Jack's dance scene, the old lady that he dances with spins away from him and knocks off a man's toupee. The actress was supposed to knock it off as she went by, but it's obvious that she misses and instead quickly reaches over to snatch it off his head instead.

Mate for Each Other - S6-E26

Trivia: In the episode where Janet asks Jack if she's a bad kisser, take a look at Janet when he kisses her. Jack unexpectedly slip Janet his tongue (which surprises the audience as well) and that throws Janet off and shocks her. Her surprised face is not acting, and was really surprised he did that. You'll also notice that when they part, she can't keep a straight face.

Suggested correction: This does not happen, their kiss is closed and for 2 seconds and Janet doesn't ask about her kissing. She says before the kiss when they have few mishaps trying to kiss before the final kiss that no-one has ever picked her kissing before and his response was, "Just shut up and kiss me!" She responds, "Okay fine!" Then they kiss, mouth closed just lips.

Show generally

Question: In the second episode Chrissy's mother comes to visit. In future episodes her father comes to visit - who is an actual "father" (i.e. priest). Aren't priests forbidden to be married?

ckbyers

Answer: He's not a Catholic priest. He's a pastor, with the title Reverend, at a community church who chooses to wear a clerical collar. Some people still address pastors as "Father" though. I'm not sure of his religious denomination, but most pastors can marry.

Bishop73

Answer: Yes Pastors can marry... I was asking for Priests since his collar appears to be that of a Catholic descent.

Some protestant pastors wear the clerical collar as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerical_collar.
