Continuity mistake: When James Earl Jones puts his hat down on the piano, he puts it upside down. But in a later shot, as he tells Jack that he's fired, we can see the hat is now the right way up, behind Karen. Later it's upside down again. (00:18:25 - 00:19:25)
Dames At Sea - S6-E1
Visible crew/equipment: After Grace shows Will possible reactions to give about the letter Dr. Morty wrote Leo, Jack walks out of his door and in this shot you can clearly see the tape marker at Grace's feet. (00:08:10)

Continuity mistake: When Grace reads Dr. Morty's letter on Karen's boat (in the last episode of season 5) it sounds at least a few paragraphs in length. During this episode, when she holds the letter up there is only a short paragraph on the bordered side of the page, and nothing on the back side.
Heart Like a Wheelchair - S6-E6
Continuity mistake: After Will picks up Tom's bottle of handcream, after Marilyn tells Tom that his mothers partial fell out, the bottle changes position when Will puts it back down on the side. (00:13:15)

Dames At Sea - S6-E1
Continuity mistake: When Grace puts her arm around Leo's shoulder after finding out that he has photos of her, the position and angle of the silver bands around her wrist changes. (00:13:20)
Revealing mistake: In reality Deborah Messing is pregnant but her character is definitely not, so Grace has been filmed lately hiding behind big purses, pillows, counter tops, coats, etc. For some reason in this episode there was some rather sloppy shooting where Grace's waistline is concerned: When she and Karen are first entering the cabin, right after Grace says the line '...driving past 20 churches...' she turns sideways and for a few seconds there is a clear shot of her advanced pregnancy. Additionally, when Grace and Karen go to bed (also in the cabin) they have Grace lying on her back so the pregnancy is quite obvious in that scene, too.
