Foe: Pa - S6-E20

Continuity mistake: Carrie says that she "didn't go" to college because Arthur felt that she would be abandoning him. He points out that her mother had just died. According to the episode "Class Struggle" (Season Two), Carrie actually went to college and then her mother died, causing her to drop out. In that episode, she wants to "go back" to college.

Home Cheapo - S9-E7

Frozen Pop - S2-E15

Other mistake: When Arthur decides to sleep upstairs instead of downstairs, he brings along a can of beans for a snack. It then cuts to an exterior street shot, which should be somewhere in Queens where the Heffernans live, but instead it's a shot of the corner at 14 Ave and 73 St in Brooklyn (some areas of Brooklyn and Queens may appear similar). Next shot is inside the Heffernan house in Queens. (00:11:45)

Show generally

Question: Does anyone know if Carrie and Doug had a baby on the show? And also was it just me, or was Carrie pregnant in real life in one season, and they did not write it into the show, or did she just gain a lot of weight?

Answer: To answer the question directly. Carrie and Doug do not have a biological child during the show's main run. In season 3 or 4 finale (cant remember which) Carrie has a miscarriage. Later on in the show they find out Carrie has 1 working ovary. Thus reducing the chance of them conceiving. By the final season, they couple agree to adopt from China and go to collect their child in the show's final episode. While on the flight back from China it's revealed that Carrie is once again pregnant. However the last scene of the show is a flash forward showing that Carrie goes full term with that child and they are struggling with both kids.

Adding on to this answer, I read somewhere that producers were afraid of the show having a "before baby" feeling and then an "after baby" feeling. Some fans feel that main characters, or the show in general, decline in quality after a major change. For example, Jesse and Rebecca on "Full House" after they had twin sons, and Daphne on "Frasier" after she married Niles.

Answer: Leah Remini was not pregnant in real life at the time of the series finale in 2007. Her daughter was born in summer 2004 and it was obvious she gained weight and wore larger clothes during that season. So no, her real pregnancy was not written into the show.

Answer: They did have a baby in the series finale. They actually adopted a baby from China, and then at the same time they found out she was pregnant. She was pregnant in real life, but they just covered her up, as much as they could, during the filming of the show.
