Sam at Eleven - S1-E4

Visible crew/equipment: The very first shot after the opening titles shows cars driving in front of the bar. If you look at a brown car that drives past, you can see the director sitting in the director's chair, reflected on the car. (00:03:00)

Suggested correction: Just before the shot changes Carla is seen turning her head facing Sam.

Bowling255

Truce or Consequences - S1-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Sam, Carla and Diane are in Sam's office and begin laughing Coach walks in, laughs for a few seconds, and leaves. Right after that the obvious shadow of a piece of equipment (probably a camera) passes across the floor in front of Diane. (00:22:15)

Truce or Consequences - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When Diane finds out that Gino is not Sam's son, the towel that is on Coach's shoulder keeps changing position. In one shot it disappears then when the camera is facing him half is in font and half in back. When the camera is to his back most of the towel is in the back.

Bowling255

Endless Slumper - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: When Rick Walker is in the bar with Sam, he recognizes Coach as a former pitching coach for the Boston Red Sox. Yet in future episodes of Cheers, Coach is always identified as a former third-base coach.

Breaking in is Hard to Do - S9-E7

Frasier: I thought that Frederick might enjoy himself.
Lilith: Enjoy himself in a bar? He's eleven months old. What kind of values can he learn here?
Frasier: Well, I thought the place had a lot to offer.
Lilith: Oh, please. He'll never learn to speak in this environment.
Norm: [Walks into the bar] Afternoon everybody.
Frederick: Norm!
[Everyone in the bar including Norm has a surprised look on their face].

One for the Road (1) - S11-E26

Question: Is it true they wanted to get Glenn Close to make a cameo as Vera Peterson in the last episode? I swear I saw photos in an entertainment mag of her filming a scene for the final episode, with the joke being Norm's long-insulted wife was actually very beautiful and classy.

Brian Katcher

Answer: The show never intended for an actress to play Vera, with the one exception being when her character appeared in the "Thanksgiving Orphans" episode, though her face was completely obscured by a pie thrown in her face. There's been online discussion on different sites about which actress could have played Vera, but it was only opinions. There's no reference to or evidence of Glenn Close having filmed a scene.
