Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: No, I don't think this is an error. I think the house with the red door is Luther and Zoe's marital home and the house with the black door is Mark's home.

That's what I thought, but how did he know where Mark lived?

I think it's a mistake because Riply is outside keeping watch on Zoe's house. At that point, Luther didn't know who Mark was, so how could he know where he lives?

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In the second episode Sabrina says the grocery store got bought and it was called "Howdy's" now or something like that (the uniform used to be red and then it was blue with those neck ties). In the episode where Burt, Jimmy and Virginia get kicked out, they visit the grocery store to steal food and they're wearing the blue uniform (as Howdy's grocery store) but it was way before Jimmy had Hope, and Hope was with him when the outfits were red.
