Making Up Is the Thing to Do - S5-E13
Character mistake: Howard's epaulets are on his uniform coat backwards. (00:05:12)
The Bob Newhart Show (1972)
1 character mistake in season 5
Starring: Bob Newhart, Suzanne Pleshette, Bill Daily, Peter Bonerz, Marcia Wallace
Genres: Comedy
Other mistake: In the opening credits, Bob answers the phone. None of the buttons light up when the phone rings. On that style of phone, the light would indicate which line to answer. The phone is obviously a prop.
Howard Borden: I was, uh, just decorating my Christmas tree and I was wondering, is there a trick to stringing cranberry sauce?
Trivia: While Bob Newhart is a father himself, he was adamant about Bob Hartley not having any children. When the writers told him they wanted to introduce a child in season six, he told them the script was good, and then asked them who was going to play Bob.
