Continuity mistake: Frasier is in Mr. Safford's study talking to him. As Frasier says "a little unconventional," his right hand goes up to his chin, gesturing. As Safford answers, Frasier's hands are grasped together in front of him, with no time for natural change.
Continuity mistake: Frasier is arguing with Niles in the kitchen and removes a large bottle of water from the fridge. He takes off the cap, and pours water into a glass. Immediately the shot shows the bottle capped again while Frasier and Niles continue talking.
Continuity mistake: Early in the show, Frasier is at home - the rest of the gang have surprised him with a birthday cake. In one shot the candles are burning on the cake, in the next Frasier is cutting the cake and the candles have disappeared, with no time allowed to remove them.
Continuity mistake: Fairly early in the show Frasier has his dad call the police station to ask about a female officer Frasier is interested in. Marty asks for her name, hangs up, and gives Frasier a lot of information about Maureen that he couldn't have possibly learned in that short a time.
Where There's Smoke There's Fired - S3-E21
Continuity mistake: When everyone is sitting at the table having dinner, the amount of food on Bebe's plate changes repeatedly. She adds extra food twice, once from the pot and once from Martin's plate, but the difference in portion sizes changes more times than that and without time for it to be eaten. (00:11:05)
Where There's Smoke There's Fired - S3-E21
Continuity mistake: Bebe has just inhaled smoke from her purse and Frasier grabs it and puts it on his bookcase. In the shot before, there had been billows of smoke around them, but suddenly the air is clear and there is no smoke.
Where There's Smoke There's Fired - S3-E21
Continuity mistake: When Frasier, Bebe, and the rest of the gang are having dinner at Frasier's he folds up his table napkin and says "he's on his third pacemaker", and we see him fold up his napkin again.
Continuity mistake: Niles is filming is father in his recliner, trying to record his life story for posterity. Marty fakes a heart attack or death - and lies back in his chair with his left arm by his side. In the next shot his arm is crooked up around his head, but with no time for him to have moved it.
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the show, Roz and Frasier are at the radio station, in his booth. There is a clipboard lying on the console to the left. Roz goes to her booth (without the clipboard) and Bulldog bursts through the door on the left. The clipboard has disappeared. Shortly afterwards Roz goes back into Frasier's booth and the clipboard is back where it was.
Continuity mistake: When Roz and Daphne are in the kitchen, the tea cup turns about 45 degrees so we see much more of the flower pattern from the same camera angle. Neither of them touched it.
Continuity mistake: While Daphne and Roz are talking in the kitchen, Daphne takes a carton of milk out of the fridge - and puts it down on her left - in the next shot it is on her right (with no change of camera angle).
Continuity mistake: The shot after Roz says "Roz Doyle, radio producer, single" shows the guy nearest to the window in the other room with his left hand next to his mouth and the woman next to him with her hand next to her chin. The following shot shows the man closest to the window with both his hands next to his mouth and the woman sitting next to him with her hands on her lap. (00:07:35)
Continuity mistake: Frasier knocks the drinks over in Manu's newspaper stand. They had been sitting on a plastic tarp over some newspapers. In the next shot the plastic tarp is draped much differently, covering the papers more. No one touched it in the meantime.
Continuity mistake: Frasier is having a glass of sherry, sitting on his couch, talking to Niles and Martin. As Marty says "let's go have dinner", Frasier throws his hands up - in real life he would have still had the sherry in his hands. There was no time for him to have put it down.
Continuity mistake: When Manu pulls down the metal front over his kiosk, Frasier has his umbrella in his right hand. By the time Manu pulls it all the way down and catches his hand under it, Frasier's umbrella has shifted to his left hand, even though he never transferred it.
You Can Never Go Home Again - S3-E24
Continuity mistake: The flashback is set in 1993, but all the characters look the way they did three years later. Most noticeably, Frasier's hair is short and not long and wavy like in the first season. Daphne's appearance has changed quite a bit too.
You Can Never Go Home Again - S3-E24
Continuity mistake: Daphne is on the phone with her mother and has a dust rag in her hand. She holds out the phone towards Frasier and when the shot goes back to her, the rag is all bunched up in her hand - it has been loose before. There was no time for her to change it.
You Can Never Go Home Again - S3-E24
Continuity mistake: Niles and Frasier are at Marty's old apartment and Niles sits down on the couch. Eddie is sitting next to him, staring. During this scene, the shots of Eddie show him moving from fairly close to Niles, to about 10 inches away, and then back again. He has no time to change position naturally.
You Can Never Go Home Again - S3-E24
Continuity mistake: Roz has a cassette in her hand as Frasier says "call-screening squelches all that," - and the next shot shows no cassette in her hand, without time for her to get rid of it.
You Can Never Go Home Again - S3-E24
Continuity mistake: When Frasier turns up to the office on his first day, having never met Roz before, he has the briefcase that Roz got for him as mentioned by Roz and Niles 'Fool Me Once, Shame on You, Fool Me Twice...'. How can this be if they've never met before?
Answer: It equals the record of James Arness of "Gunsmoke" for the actor who's played the same part on TV NOT in a soap opera. If you include soaps there are two main contenders - William Roache, who's been playing Ken Barlow in "Coronation Street" in the UK since 1960. Don Hastings has been playing Robert Hughes in US soap "As the World Turns" since 1960 as well.
