Correction: This is not a production mistake, it is a necessary element. Due to Trademark and Copyright restrictions, they could not use actual games in a show. Therefore, they combined the idea of three different games (a Sorry board, Monopoly cards, and Trivial Pursuit questions) to make it an ambiguous game.

Correction: Sophia doesn't decide to move in with Phil AND his wife. She is going to move in with Phil only because his wife, whom she hates, left Phil. She left two kids behind with Phil because they can't cross state lines, and Sophia is going to help him raise the kids.

Correction: Also, there is an episode (the one where Rose dates the short doctor) where she goes to her grandson's graduation from dog grooming school, where she said "the big dope failed." That episode aired before the two mentioned in the original mistake listed, so she saw her son and daughter in law within the last 20 years.

There Goes the Bride (1) - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Rose says that Miles is in Europe with some students. The episode immediately before this one, however, revealed Miles being put back into a witness protection program, and leaving Rose.

Rose: Oh, Sophia.
Sophia: Blanche, you're a slut.
Blanche: Oh, Sophia.

Trivia: There were always 3 chairs around the kitchen table instead of 4 due to limitations of filming, and so one actress wouldn't have her back to the camera.

Chosen answer: Rose's husband Charlie died making love to her. There are at least 3 different ways Blanche's husband George is said to have died: 1. Blanche was getting a pedicure when he was killed. 2. He had a car accident and died. 3. He had been in a coma and died. In theory they could all be combined (he had a car accident, fell into a coma, then died while she was having a pedicure), but that's conjecture. I'm not sure how Sophia's husband Sal died.

The episode where Blanche said her husband was in a car accident, she said she was on the phone with an officer (who was eating potato chips, crunch) who was at the scene of the accident, and the officer said George was hit head on and died.

Answer: According to one episode when Dorothy was sick on the couch and Blanche was trying to get her up, Sophia brings Dorothy a hot toddy to which Dorothy says 'that's an awful lot of whisky.' Sophia says she ran out of whisky awhile ago and this one was vodka and amaretto. She said 'that should kill everything. It killed your father.'
