Continuity mistake: In this episode, when Doug and Carrie are taking an adult literature class together, Doug comes down the stairs with his book in his hand, but when he sits on the couch he only has his book pillow and reading lamp, and runs back upstairs to get his book.
Continuity mistake: When Carrie takes Doug into the back yard to yell at him, after she is done swinging at him, she puts her hand up to her chin. First it's her left, then right. It changes between shots. Each time the camera goes back to her it happens.
Visible crew/equipment: When Doug is getting a lift from the Priority Plus driver after being rescued from being stuck in the drive-thru, you can see the camera truck (the truck they use to film exterior road/driving shots) in the reflections of the glass windows of buildings behind Doug when the camera cuts to him.
Revealing mistake: In the final scene of the episode, Arthur is searching for used bottles of nasal spray. He empties the contents of the trash can on the kitchen floor and finds one after sifting through the trash. However, the bottle had already been positioned on the floor next to the trash can before he picked up the trash can so it would be easy to find when the trash was emptied on the floor.
Continuity mistake: Just as Doug persuades Deacon to go with him to Carrie's birthday dinner, his position changes completely. (00:10:20)
Continuity mistake: In the flashbacks in this episode, Carrie and Doug meet for the first time in a bar, but in the episode "Road Rayge", Carrie mentions a junior high school dance where Doug asked her to dance.
Visible crew/equipment: Throughout the whole series stage lights can be seen reflecting in the kettle on the Heffernan's stove, as well as on the green dish on a shelf by the kitchen window.
Continuity mistake: When Sara is in the shower you can see in her shadow, creases from her swimsuit. (00:16:30)
Revealing mistake: When Doug and Deacon are driving round trying to find Gabe's Pizzeria, they get into the car and pull out into the road. However if you look at the traffic, they would have hit at least 2 cars in doing so. But they don't, showing it's a projection. (00:14:40)
Deconstructing Carrie - S7-E15
Revealing mistake: When Doug flies off the bike and across the screen, in the background is a palm tree, which obviously would not grow in New York. (00:14:20)
Continuity mistake: At the store, Doug picks up 5 or 6 bags of sweets. Most noticeable is 2 yellow bags. Camera cuts and they have disappeared. (00:01:05)
Continuity mistake: When Carrie confronts Arthur about looking in her bag, her bra strap is slightly hidden by her top. Camera cuts to a front view of Carrie then back to behind her. Now her bra strap has moved and is totally visible. Carrie never touched it during this time as we see her hands. (00:12:25)
Continuity mistake: The piano in the living room is ebony in the beginning of the episode. At the end of the episode the piano is brown.
Fixer Upper - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When Spence realises he's eating peanuts, he steps behind the bench he was sitting on, but in the next shot he is in the front of the bench. (00:08:30)
No Orleans - S4-E16
Continuity mistake: Doug made a blue snowcone in the kitchen and then goes into the living room to talk to Arthur. When he crosses the door in to the living room, the initially full snow cone is now almost gone. (00:02:05)
Revealing mistake: Even after receiving the gift basket from the neighbors, the Heffernans are still awakened by their barking dog. When Carrie rushes downstairs Doug stops her at the front door, and the entire left window has been removed (for camera access) from its frame, so there's a large empty hole. (00:13:10)
Chosen answer: That is most likely the case.
