Vint and the Kids Move In - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Vint moves in, he stays in the basement. Mama, Fran, and Buzz all have a "bedroom." Sonya moves into Fran's studio. Then when Naomi thinks she's pregnant, they argue over where Vint and Naomi will move to instead of the basement. Fran says she won't give up her room, Buzz says his room is in the attic. Sonya says her room is microscopic. Thelma has the biggest room. Then on Mama's Birthday, she gets Buzz to help clean out of the attic, which obviously wasn't his room as he stated. Then, of course, after Buzz, Sonya, and Fran are all gone there's only room for Thelma and Bubba upstairs.

Suggested correction: A similar mistake like this was already corrected. The episodes were aired out of order, so there is no continuity mistake on part of the show. "Alien Marriage" was the 2nd episode produced. The show started with the 4th episode produced and season 1 ends with the 1st episode produced. Many refer to these types of episodes as flashback episodes.
