Frasier

Three Valentines - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: In Cassandra's hotel room, Frasier gets two small bottles of brandy and manages to pour them into separate glasses while holding both bottles. Pretty hard to do. He never puts one down and grips it to open it.

The Last Time I Saw Maris - S3-E8

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the show, while Noel is getting Frasier to sign his Star Trek petition, Roz puts a blue plastic cassette into the machine to Frasier's left. During the scene it changes to a black cassette, without anyone touching it, and at the end of the scene Roz walks off with a blue cassette in her hand.

Kisses Sweeter Than Wine - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: When Frasier comes out of the bathroom, he has shaved without water, and has at least 4 bits of tissue with blood on them stuck to his face. Within 5 minutes he is greeting his guests at the door and his face is completely smooth with no sign of a cut or scrape.

No Sex Please, We're Skittish - S11-E1

Continuity mistake: Roz and Frasier are in his apt. after Julia has left. The small pillow on the far left of the couch is quite smooshed down and almost flat, but when Roz walks over toward the center of the couch, the pillow is much fuller and fluffed out. In the next shot we see Frasier sit down on this pillow; when he stands it looks like it did a few shots before - very flat and smooshed.

Taking Liberties - S8-E5

Continuity mistake: When Frasier is hosting his pre-opera party and is greeting his first guests at the door, the female guest has a purse on her arm. In the shot after Frasier excuses himself from them, her arms and purse have changed positions.

Give Him the Chair! - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: Early in the episode Martin puts a piece of tape on the seat of his chair, before Frasier accidentally gets it thrown out. However later on when Frasier gets the chair back (and in later episodes) that piece of tape is missing. It's possible it was ripped off of course, but wouldn't Martin have replaced it again if there was a hole in the chair?

A Midwinter Night's Dream - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the show, Niles, Frasier and Daphne are at Cafe Nervosa. Daphne is standing up talking to Eric the server and Niles gets agitated, and spills sugar everywhere. Eric throws down a dish towel so they can clean it up. The dish towel appears and disappears several times during the scene.

The New Friend - S8-E7

Continuity mistake: When Luke and Frasier are talking in the restaurant, and Frasier asks, "So Luke, you're a boat enthusiast?", his forearm is resting on the table. When the shot cuts back to him, only his hand is resting on the table, with no time for him to change position.

Whine Club - S7-E17

Continuity mistake: During the opening credits, Martin and Claire are sitting in Cafe Nervosa, talking. Claire has her left hand and arm crossed over in front of her but when the shot changes and Marty says "you don't think he was watching", her hand and arm are suddenly extended towards him, without time for this to have happened.

Dark Side of the Moon - S7-E22

Continuity mistake: When Roz comes over to meet Simon for their date, she is standing at the door talking and one strap from her shoulder bag is hanging down from the shoulder. The shot from behind her shows both straps are on her shoulder, and then the shot goes back to the front - it's down again. At no time did she adjust it.

Roz's Turn - S4-E17

Continuity mistake: When Frasier is comforting Roz about not getting the job, the blue cassette on top of the tape machine moves from one end to the other, and the white label on the end is no longer visible.

Three Valentines - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: As Cassandra asks Frasier if he's coming to bed, she lies down on her left side. The next shot shows her lying on her back, even though there was no time to change positions. (00:15:25)

Shutout in Seattle (1) - S6-E23

Continuity mistake: Donny and Daphne are talking to everyone at breakfast and the positions of the paper bag and the table napkin in front of Donny change from one shot to the next. (00:06:50)

The Fight Before Christmas - S7-E11

Continuity mistake: Mel and Frasier are talking at the KACL Christmas party - she says "did you two have a good time last night?" and her hands are down in front of her - in the next shot her hand is up at her neck, with no time to have done this naturally.

The Ann Who Came to Dinner - S11-E13

Continuity mistake: Ann thinks Frasier is taking her to Alaska he hangs his head down in embarrassment. She says "you've got a thing for me" and he smiles and raises his head up. In the next shot he is still standing there with his head hanging down.

Selling Out - S1-E9

Frasier: Roger, at Cornell University they have an incredible piece of scientific equipment known as the Tunneling Electron Microscope. Now, this microscope is so powerful that by firing electrons you can actually see images of the atom, the infinitesimally minute building blocks of our universe. Roger, if I were using that microscope right now, I still wouldn't be able to locate my interest in your problem.

Show generally

Question: When Nanny G says that she has played the same character for twenty years it gets a big laugh. What is the joke? Am I missing something here?

Answer: Nanny G (Nanette Guzman - played by Laurie Metcaf) has been a children's entertainer for twenty years, and tells Frasier, "Do you know what it's like to play the same character for 20 years?!" The joke is that Kelsey Grammer has been playing Frasier Crane since 1984, when the character first appeared on "Cheers", so Kelsey in real life has been doing just that!
