Continuity mistake: When Mary Jo is asking Ted for a thank you, there is a striped pillow that appears behind her when she says "that's it." It's not there previously and disappears in the next shot of her. Then it reappears in a different position in the final sofa shot.
Design House - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: The objects on the sofa change between shots in the opening scene.
Continuity mistake: The magazine/pictures on the coffee table change in the opening scenes. Notice the rectangular photo/object on the left side.
The IT Men - S1-E9
Continuity mistake: The Sugarbaker Porch is different. In the Thanksgiving Episode, for example, there is a very obvious porch light behind Anthony, here it is gone.
There She Is - S4-E3
Continuity mistake: In season one, episode two, "The Beauty Contest," Julia Sugarbaker states the following about her sister Suzanne becoming Miss Georgia World, 1976: "when she emerged from the isolation booth to answer the question, "What would you do to prevent war?" she spoke so eloquently of patriotism, battlefields and diamond tiaras, grown men wept." However, in this episode, Suzanne recalls her answer to the final question, "I said I wanted my own TV show." Further, the name of the pageant changes from Miss Georgia World to Miss Georgia U.S., and the year changed to 1975.
Continuity mistake: While Mary Jo and and Carlene are talking about Dr. Hacker, Julia comes in and walks over to the other women empty-handed, but a cup suddenly appears in Julia's hands between shots. (00:02:30)
Answer: The group, including Carlene, were invited to attend Bill Clinton's inauguration in D.C. Julia was apparently bothered that Carlene is attending a Democratic victory event after she had voted against Clinton and for Perot, an Independent candidate. Julia probably considers it hypocritical and something of a betrayal.
