Double Trouble - S5-E19

Continuity mistake: When Furley enters The Apartment at the start of the party, the outside weather is crystal clear. Less than 2 minutes later, Furley tells "Austin" the fog is very heavy and the airport is closed down. Then upon opening the front door, tons of thick fog is all over outside. While fog can roll in very quickly, how could Furley even bring up the fog in the first place when it was not there at all when he walked in?

Double Trouble - S5-E19

Character mistake: When Jack tells Mr. Furley his brother is in town (before mentioning it was a "twin" brother who Jack made up), Mr. Furley gave a puzzled look and said "Your brother?" which appeared as if he didn't know Jack had a brother. However, in the previous season, Mr. Furley briefly met Jack's brother Lee, so he already should have known Jack had a brother (even if were to turn out to be a different brother).

Jack Tripper: And speaking of current events, did you read the big news in the paper this morning?
Chrissy: The May Company is having a huge sale on pantyhose.
Jack Tripper: Excuse me, Chrissy, that's not exactly a current event.
Chrissy: It is so, it's going on right now.

Show generally

Question: What is the picture of women on the walls of the set? Not the butterfly picture, the others.

Answer: I believe you are referring to the artwork of Alphonse Mucha. On the wall next to the front door was "Feather" (which is one half of "Primrose and Feather"). Above the telephone in early episodes was "Zodiac". Also seen through The Apartment was "Spring" and "Autumn".

Answer: Or, you may be referring to Tranquillo Cremona's High Life (A Piquant Conversation), which hangs above the side table.
