Family Matters

What Do You Know? - S8-E19

Continuity mistake: Carl says that Laura was five years old when the movie "The Wiz" was released, which was in 1978. That would mean Laura was born in 1973 and is or will be 24 years old. She only finished high school in the previous season.

Brain over Brawn - S3-E2

Other mistake: In this episode, they have a leak in the roof. Yet, the house is a two story house with an attic. So it should not be able to leak into the living room. Also, when Carl and Eddie go up to fix the roof, Eddie falls through the roof and ends up on the living room couch. Again, two story house with attic. Should not happen.

More quotes from Family Matters

Trivia: When this show first went into syndication, a market in New England declined to pick it up, thinking it wouldn't be popular with their demographics. They ended up providing the show for free with the agreement that the market would end up paying for the broadcasting rights if the show reached a certain ratings threshold.
