Educating Doug - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: During both driving scenes, the street lights in the background do not fade away in the distance to indicate they are actually driving forward. When Doug, Carrie and Arthur are pulled over waiting for Spence (and again when waiting for Arthur at Dairy Queen), lights scroll over the car and the sound of a passing vehicle can be heard but no car is seen to pass by or drive away in the distance. (00:07:45)

The Minister

Fight Schlub - S8-E22

Continuity mistake: In the episode where Priority Plus is mentioned, after the Priority Plus driver has got Doug Out of the drive through, he gives Doug a lift in his truck. In some shots there is a window on the side of the street. In the window there is no Priority Plus truck visible.

Queasy Rider - S2-E1

Audio problem: When Doug enters the kitchen wearing his leather jacket and tells Carrie he just got in from riding the bike, you can see the bike parked just outside the kitchen window in the backyard. If that was true it would have been heard from inside the kitchen, as motorcycles are quite loud. (00:11:35 - 00:12:15)

The Minister

Show generally

Continuity mistake: From outside shots of Coopers, there are no garbage bins or newspaper boxes in front of the pub. From inside shots, several bins can be seen just outside the glass doors.

Roamin' Holiday - S2-E10

Other mistake: Carrie describes Susie as "one of her best friends." Earlier in this same season, the episode "Female Problems" was about her not having friends anymore. In fact, in that episode, she spent a whole evening calling any former friend that she could think of. She told Doug that they all had babies, hated her, or she hated them.

Fight Schlub - S8-E22

Visible crew/equipment: Doug, Deacon, and Danny are at their lockers towards the end of the episode, and Deacon says, "Me and Danny gotta do another half shift tonight." Camera cuts, and a boom mic can be seen at the top of the screen.

Brace Yourself - S9-E6

Visible crew/equipment: When Doug and Carrie are talking about the sketch of Carrie on the fridge and Doug says, "Man, he's got some skills" (talking about Major), a boom mic is visible at the top of the screen.

White Collar - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: Deacon states on a few occasions in this episode that him and Doug started at around the same time at IPS. However, in later episodes it's revealed Deacon is senior to Doug by quite a bit in flashbacks to how Doug got his job. (00:10:00)

Question: Has Carrie's sister, Sara, ever been mentioned again after the first few episodes, and why was she taken off?

Answer: Sara hasn't been mentioned in later episodes, and it suggested in later episodes that she never existed, and that Carrie is an only child. Kevin James stated that the producers couldn't think of an good plots to use with Sara, so they left her out.
