Continuity mistake: During both driving scenes, the street lights in the background do not fade away in the distance to indicate they are actually driving forward. When Doug, Carrie and Arthur are pulled over waiting for Spence (and again when waiting for Arthur at Dairy Queen), lights scroll over the car and the sound of a passing vehicle can be heard but no car is seen to pass by or drive away in the distance.

Continuity mistake: When Ritchi and Spence are at the cafe, Spence pours the remainder of the pitcher into his cup. The shot goes back to him, and it appears he took a large sip because his cup is near empty. When Doug and Deacon come in, Spence's glass is almost full again.

Continuity mistake: During the first shuffleboard scene, the characters are brightly lit and cast by long dark shadows (indicating early morning or late afternoon), but when you see shots of the shuffle pucks flying into the bleachers, the bleachers' and extras' shadows are cast straight down (indicating noon hour).

Revealing mistake: Carrie comes into the kitchen, visibly hot and sweaty, and says, "Could it be any hotter?" Doug also has a sweat stain on his back and they stick their heads in the freezer. Suddenly Arthur walks in and says, "Do I have the word pushover on my forehead?" Arthur is wearing a thick shirt tucked into long pants and yet is not sweaty. At his age he would be more visibly drained from the heat than both Carrie and Doug. This happens again later in the episode in the garage.

Question: Were audience members not allowed cameras in the studio? Because there are hardly any pics of the King of Queen's set online. Thanks.
