New Will City - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: In the end credits, as Karen is talking to Rosario in the limo, she takes an empty martini glass as pours herself a drink. Between shots a olive appears in the glass as she pours, and in the next shot it disappears. (00:20:10)

Grace 0, Jack 2000 - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: When Will enters the backstage washroom to tell Jack that he can make fun of him on stage, Jack puts the blue flannel in the sink, so that we can't see it. In the next shot the flannel is hanging out, over the sink's edge. (00:17:35)

Hamster

Love Plus One - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: When Jack reveals to Will that he is too shy to ask out the sales assistant in the Banana Republic, Jack stands by a wooden shelf. Between shots the positions of his hands on the wooden pole keep changing, and which hand is holding it with also differs. (00:27:20)

Lows in the Mid-Eighties (1) - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: In the scene in which Will is sitting in Bobbie Adler's bathroom, talking to Jack on the telephone, the shots alternate between the bathroom and Jack's bedroom. At the beginning of their conversation, the digital clock in Jack's bedroom reads 12:07. For the next few shots, each time the audience is taken back to Jack's bedroom, the time on the clock has changed according to the actual time lapsing in the scene. However, in the middle of this sequence, the digital clock suddenly reads 12:24, where it had read 12:09 in the shot immediately preceding. Finally, in the very next shot in Jack's bedroom, the clock has gone back to "real time," with a reading of 12:10. The assumption is that the shot in the middle of this sequence had to be re-done, thus reflecting the time passage on the clock. (00:15:30 - 00:17:40)

Karen: Good Lord. I can't believe I'm at a public pool. Why doesn't somebody just pee directly on me?

Grandpa Jack - S9-E4

Question: This is a question without a knowable answer. But I wonder if anyone has thoughts as to why we hear nothing of Elliot's mother? Jack and Elliot are estranged. Elliot's mother, Bonnie (originally played by Rosie O'Donnell), acknowledged to Jack that she is a lesbian in the original run of the series. So, when Elliot marries a conservative woman, moves to Texas, and makes plans to send his gay son to a gay conversion camp, where is Bonnie in all of this?
