The King of Queens

Doug Out - S2-E6

Factual error: At Shea Stadium, in Queens New York, Carrie asks Arthur if he want a Coolicoo. Carrie then goes to the concession to buy Coolicoo's and tells the guy behind the counter she can see them next to him. However, Coolicoos don't exist at Shea Stadium. They are only available at Dodgers Stadium in L.A.

Wild Cards - S2-E20

Factual error: In the show, the blackjack players are dealt two cards face down and don't show their hand to the dealer until they either make a hand or bust. In reality, blackjack players in Atlantic City are dealt both cards face up and are never allowed to handle the cards for any reason. If both cards were dealt face down and handled by the players, there would be a strong opportunity for cheating. In addition, if their math wasn't adequate, they might take extra cards that they shouldn't have been dealt.

Wild Cards - S2-E20

Factual error: Deacon is holding an In-N-Out drink cup. In-N-Out is a burger chain only located on the West Coast of the United States. (00:02:00)

Two Thirty - S4-E24

Plot hole: In this episode Arthur scams Deacon and several other parents for phony piano lessons because he doesn't actually know how to play the piano. However, earlier in the series (Art House episode, S1 - E24) we learn that Arthur can play the piano when he temporarily moves out and after his house warming party Doug says to Carrie, "Who knew Arthur could play the piano like that?"
