Frasier

Decoys - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: When Niles and Roz are talking at the cabin, in some shots her sleeve is pushed up her arm and in some it is down to her wrist, with no time for her to change it.

When a Man Loves Two Women - S6-E21

Continuity mistake: When Frasier is in his apartment talking to Niles, Marty, and Daphne about choosing between Cassandra and Fay, the milk on the breakfast table changes position several times - from behind the coffee pot and near Daphne to the other side of the coffee pot in front of Martin.

First, Do No Harm - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, Roz and Frasier are in Cafe Nervosa, and she is snoozing, while a half-eaten muffin sits in front her. As she wakes up and talks to Frasier, the muffin appears whole again. She leaves and Martin comes in and takes her seat. A shot then shows the muffin as half-eaten again, even though no one has touched it.

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.

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)

Three Valentines - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: At the end of the scene Niles opens the apartment door and waves his arm; the little white cloth is thrown and lands under him as he faints and hits the floor. Eddie heads for the couch and the shot shows the white cloth on the floor in the hall outside the apartment door. (00:11:20)

When a Man Loves Two Women - S6-E21

Continuity mistake: Niles is trying to convince Frasier to play squash - he has his hands on the back of Frasier's chair. Cassandra comes out of the kitchen and we see one of Niles' hands on Frasier's shoulder. In the next shot, both hands are back on the chair, even though there was no time for this to happen naturally. (00:02:35)

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.

Dial M For Martin - S6-E3

Continuity mistake: Eddie has been playing on Niles' couch, and the pillows are all over the place and there are a couple of other things on there as well. After Marty's chair arrives, Niles says to Frasier, "You have to take him back now," and suddenly the couch is all tidied up, with the pillows at the ends. A couple of shots go by and suddenly the couch is a mess again.

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.
