Forget Me Not - S8-E18

Character mistake: Janet is waiting for Larry to deliver her new car and states to Jack that this is her very first car. But 5 episodes earlier in S8-E13 "Itching for Trouble" when Moose asks if they had a football that needed air, Janet says no, but one of the tires on her car are low.

Suggested correction: It could have been a quick comeback line as a joke. The way Janet was even saying it sounded that way. Also, technically speaking, she did have a car in the past. The trio had bought Roper's Car for a very short time (from an earlier episode) before Roper bought it back from them. Janet never physically drove it but at that time, she was ⅓ owner of it so technically she had a car before.

Yes, I always thought it was a quick comeback.

Friends and Lovers (1) - S8-E21

Character mistake: In S5-E15 "In Like Larry", Larry gives Cindy and Janet gifts to thank them for letting him live with them, so Janet gives him a kiss. Larry also kisses both Janet and Terri on the lips at the end of S7-E6 "Opening Night" after showing them Greek dancing. However, in this episode Janet kisses Larry at her wedding, to which Larry says "Janet, that's the first time you've ever kissed me."

Grandma Jack - S8-E7

Character mistake: Jack says to Larry (upon finding out "Grandma" Tripper won the contest), "You want me to dress as a woman?" as if he never did that before and thought the whole idea was crazy - but earlier in the series he dressed as Chrissy in full drag so he's not new to the idea like he made it sound. Larry also dressed as a woman in an earlier episode as well (just for the record).

Mate for Each Other - S6-E26

Trivia: In the episode where Janet asks Jack if she's a bad kisser, take a look at Janet when he kisses her. Jack unexpectedly slip Janet his tongue (which surprises the audience as well) and that throws Janet off and shocks her. Her surprised face is not acting, and was really surprised he did that. You'll also notice that when they part, she can't keep a straight face.

Suggested correction: This does not happen, their kiss is closed and for 2 seconds and Janet doesn't ask about her kissing. She says before the kiss when they have few mishaps trying to kiss before the final kiss that no-one has ever picked her kissing before and his response was, "Just shut up and kiss me!" She responds, "Okay fine!" Then they kiss, mouth closed just lips.

Question: In the second episode Chrissy's mother comes to visit. In future episodes her father comes to visit - who is an actual "father" (i.e. priest). Aren't priests forbidden to be married?

ckbyers

Answer: He's not a Catholic priest. He's a pastor, with the title Reverend, at a community church who chooses to wear a clerical collar. Some people still address pastors as "Father" though. I'm not sure of his religious denomination, but most pastors can marry.

Bishop73

Answer: Yes Pastors can marry... I was asking for Priests since his collar appears to be that of a Catholic descent.

Some protestant pastors wear the clerical collar as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clerical_collar.
