Operation Righteous Cowboy Lightning - S5-E12
Continuity mistake: Jack walks into the writers' room. During a wide shot, you can see that Lutz has a pair of sunglasses resting on the back of his head, near his neck. During his close up, the sunglasses are gone. The next shot is another wide shot and the sunglasses reappear. (00:05:10)
Character mistake: Tina Fey fumbles her line and has to start it again. The original line should have been "How long do you think you're going to get away with this? Hazel or Jenna will know we're missing." Instead the second part of the line is "Henna or Jay; Hazel or Jenna will know we're missing!" (00:04:05)
Trivia: When Cooter (Matthew Broderick) and Jack are looking through all the files to find a bad idea it's very reminiscent of Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane as Bialistock and Bloom looking for bad scripts in The Producers. Yet another musical theatre nod by a writer.
Question: Why does Liz put up with all the craziness? She couldn't quit and work on another show?
Answer: There's probably lots of reasons why Liz stays - money, lack of other job prospects and so on. The reality is, if she left, that would adversely affect the story line and the comedy within it. Tina Fey was one of the stars, and her character is an integral part of the show.
