Frasier

Where Every Bloke Knows Your Name - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: When Daphne is playing darts with Frasier, he says, "I scored again," and we see her sweater sleeve is pushed up her arm. But when she comes back with, "That's not something we hear very often," the sleeve is completely covering her arm. In the next shot, it's pushed up her arm again. There was no time for the adjustment.

Three Valentines - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: Niles gets a pair of scissors to snip off a thread on his pants. He puts them on the ironing board, but after he passes out, they are on the credenza behind the couch. Later, they are back on the ironing board. (00:03:00 - 00:04:05)

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.

The Friend - S3-E11

Continuity mistake: In the last scene, at the Cafe, Bob puts a dollar on the table in front of him. A waitress brings a cup and puts it down - the dollar has disappeared. In subsequent shots it reappears.

The Friend - S3-E11

Continuity mistake: Frasier and Bob are in Cafe Nervosa talking. Bob has a book in his hand. In another shot he is moving his hands around, even though there was no time for him to have put the book down.

The Two Mrs. Cranes - S4-E1

Continuity mistake: When Clive arrives at the apartment, he puts his coat over the front of the arm of the couch. As the scene progresses and Marty tells him about being an astronaut, the coat is suddenly on the back of the arm of the couch, even though no one moved it.

I'm Listening - S11-E6

Continuity mistake: When Martin and Frasier are in Cafe Nervosa and Marty is lecturing his son about eavesdropping, his newspaper moves a few inches, from being on his left to being right in front of him, even though he never touched it.

Breaking the Ice - S2-E20

Continuity mistake: Niles has the "hot buns" pads under his right arm and his mittens in his right hand. The next shot shows he already has a mitten on his left hand even though there was not enough time for him to put it on. (00:10:25)

Frasier's Imaginary Friend - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the show, Frasier is on the plane sitting next to a woman who finds out he's only on there because he wants to pursue her. She asks the flight attendant if she could change seats - but the shot before showed that the attendant had completely walked by their seat but when the woman asks her if she can move she has not passed their seat yet.

Frasier Gotta Have It - S5-E19

Continuity mistake: At Caitlin's apartment, Frasier tells her "our relationship - we've never talked about it" - she has her arms around his neck and he is holding one of her hands in both of his - but in the next shot, both of her hands are under his hands.

To Kill a Talking Bird - S4-E14

Continuity mistake: Niles has his dog over at Frasier's. He sits down on the couch and the dog is facing the door. The next shows the dog standing about two feet away and facing the balcony - and the third shot shows her back in the first position. There was no time for her to change positions naturally.

Dark Victory - S2-E24

Continuity mistake: After Frasier passes the pink box with the birthday cake over to Daphne the box is closed. But when the doorbell rings the lid is about halfway open, with no time for this change. (00:04:15)

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?

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.
