Precedent Nixin' - S6-E19

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Doug's father is shutting off the alarm, he does not enter 2965. We know this is the proper code, because it is Doug's birthday, and it worked when he entered it. It looks like he maybe enters 1459.

Precedent Nixin' - S6-E19

Character mistake: Doug claims to be a Pisces, however during this episode when entering his birthday into the alarm system to disarm it he calls out 2-9-69 which shows he would be an Aquarius.

Foe: Pa - S6-E20

Audio problem: When the can of Fanta falls over, the sound of drink pouring out is a clear overdub and you can't see any Fanta though you should be able to. (00:00:20)

Foe: Pa - S6-E20

Continuity mistake: Carrie says that she "didn't go" to college because Arthur felt that she would be abandoning him. He points out that her mother had just died.

Tank Heaven - S6-E21

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Danny has just taken the "nucleus" nacho chip, after Carrie walks in, the chip in Danny's hand keeps changing between shots, then disappears altogether almost instantly and his arms are folded when he begins his next line. (00:02:30 - 00:03:25)

Show generally

Question: Does anyone know if Carrie and Doug had a baby on the show? And also was it just me, or was Carrie pregnant in real life in one season, and they did not write it into the show, or did she just gain a lot of weight?

Answer: To answer the question directly. Carrie and Doug do not have a biological child during the show's main run. In season 3 or 4 finale (cant remember which) Carrie has a miscarriage. Later on in the show they find out Carrie has 1 working ovary. Thus reducing the chance of them conceiving. By the final season, they couple agree to adopt from China and go to collect their child in the show's final episode. While on the flight back from China it's revealed that Carrie is once again pregnant. However the last scene of the show is a flash forward showing that Carrie goes full term with that child and they are struggling with both kids.

Answer: Leah Remini was not pregnant in real life at the time of the series finale in 2007. Her daughter was born in summer 2004 and it was obvious she gained weight and wore larger clothes during that season. So no, her real pregnancy was not written into the show.

Answer: They did have a baby in the series finale. They actually adopted a baby from China, and then at the same time they found out she was pregnant. She was pregnant in real life, but they just covered her up, as much as they could, during the filming of the show.
