Frasier

Freudian Sleep - S11-E14

Continuity mistake: Frasier and Martin are in the kitchen and Marty gets some chips out of the cupboard next to the fridge. As he leans down to pet Eddie we can see a bag of blue chips still in the cupboard - but when he straightens up to talk to Frasier, we see a red bag in the cupboard, not the blue one (the camera angle remains the same).

IQ - S6-E19

Continuity mistake: Near the start of the show, Roz arrives at Frasier's with baby Alice. She is standing near the balcony door in her black gown when suddenly a white spit-up cloth appears on her shoulder that had not been there previously in the scene.

Something About Dr. Mary - S7-E16

Continuity mistake: Niles is showing Marty how he can kick box and he accidentally kicks Daphne. The tray she is covering flies up in the air, and the snack food ends up on the footstool and the floor. There is also an empty basket in front of the footstool. Niles goes to the kitchen to get ice for her wrist; when he returns most of the snack food and the basket have disappeared.

Caught in the Act - S11-E15

Continuity mistake: Nanny G and Frasier are in the kitchen of his apartment and there is a tray with three empty wine glasses. Nanette takes one and pours herself some wine; a few seconds later Frasier grabs the tray and goes into the living room, but now he has four empty glasses on the tray when there should have only been two. At no time did he add glasses to the tray.

The New Friend - S8-E7

Continuity mistake: When Frasier and Luke are on Luke's boat, Luke is holding a book and some yellow papers while they talk. Sometimes the sheets are on top of the book, and sometimes they are underneath the book.

Goodnight, Seattle: Part 1 - S11-E23

Continuity mistake: (This is for "Goodnight Seattle.") When Eddie is eating the pate with the ring in it, in the wide shot we see that he's finished all the food and is licking the plate clean. It then cuts to a closeup, and the plate is suddenly full of food. Back to the wide shot, and he's licking a clean plate again.

Krista

Flour Child - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: Near the beginning of the show, Roz takes a large get well card into Frasier's booth - she has some papers as well, which are on top of the card. She lowers the card and the next shot shows the papers are under the card, with no time for changes in position.

Frasier's Imaginary Friend - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: When Marty does his exercises, Eddie watches from the recliner and his bottom is just about in the center of the seat, but as Daphne heads to the door, his posterior is much closer to the arm of the chair, even though he never moved.

Suggested correction: The pin is present until Daphne removes it, but in each shot the pin is rotated without anyone touching it. In some shots, it is difficult to see because it is longways on, but it is there.

Legal Tender Love and Care - S8-E6

Continuity mistake: Niles and Daphne are in the elevator talking about Donny. Daphne has her hands on top of her purse with her fingers laced together. Niles puts his hand over hers but in the next shot his hand is on her wrist and she has her hand against her jacket's lapel.

Murder Most Maris - S11-E8

Continuity mistake: Niles, Frasier, Marty, and Daphne are at Niles' apartment and they have just found out Maris killed her lover. Niles' overcoat is on a chair behind the couch. He decides to go the police station, tells Daphne to stay put, and heads towards the hall on the left. In the next shot he is carrying his coat and heading out the front door with Marty - there just wasn't enough time for him to have got over to his coat and back to the door.

The Babysitter - S11-E4

Continuity mistake: Right at the start when Frasier is talking to Niles in the furniture shop, at one point he says "Don't you hear that," and holds his hand in a fist. The shot cuts instantly to Niles and you can see his hand is now about a foot higher and his palm is suddenly open.

David Mercier

Enemy at the Gate - S10-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Frasier is standing through his sunroof to speak with the drivers stuck behind him in the parking garage, one shot shows Frasier's body and much of the rear window which features a very clear reflection of the boom mic.

Frasier: And though washing one's hands twenty to thirty times a day would be considered obsessive/compulsive, please bear in mind that your husband is a coroner. Thank you for your call, Jeanine. Roz, whom do we have next?

Caught in the Act - S11-E15

Trivia: When Nanette tells Frasier she's tired of playing her children's show character, she asks him if he knows what it's like to play the same character for twenty years. By this point, Kelsey Grammer had been playing Frasier for twenty years: eleven on 'Frasier' and nine on 'Cheers'.

Show generally

Question: Counting his role on Cheers, Kesley Grammar has played Fraiser for twenty years. Is this the record for the longest portrayal of a character by a TV actor?

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.
