The King of Queens

Queasy Rider - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: Doug falls off the bike at one point and shouts that he has had enough. He opens the door and if you look carefully a stage light and boom mic are reflected in the glass. Slo-mo may help but is not essential for spotting the mistake. (00:15:25)

Female Problems - S2-E2

Revealing mistake: During the scene when Doug is "out with the boys" driving in Spence's car, you can tell they are actually in a studio using a green-screen because the stage lights reflecting off the car don't move. (00:36:00 - 00:36:35)

The Minister

Doug Out - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: When Doug and the rest are at a ballgame, the man sitting behind them is eating a hot dog. Actually he's pretending to eat, it never shows any bite marks and the guy is pretending to chew it.

Doug Out - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: When Doug is running from security at the Mets game, there is one shot of Doug running from right in front of him, and the background is the game. In this shot, the background is very fake.

Frozen Pop - S2-E15

Revealing mistake: When Doug goes out to scrape frost off the car, we can see he casts 2 shadows from different stage lights as he comes down the steps as well as on the hood of the car. (00:01:00)

The Minister

Big Dougie - S2-E21

Revealing mistake: When Doug is jogging in the marathon he is casting three shadows in different directions. Also, the female jogger behind him appears to be in good shape but is still jogging as dramatically slow as Doug. (00:19:20)

Whine Country - S2-E25

Revealing mistake: After Doug successfully trades vacation days with Roger, it cuts to Doug's IPS truck stopping in traffic. The next few shots were filmed on the streets at Sony Pictures Studios lot. In the shot of the IPS truck's side-view mirror (as the RV approaches), note the signs on the building read "Keaton Building" and "Sound Department Courtyard." After the flashback, another building sign reads "Durante Building." These buildings are located at the north side of the studio in Culver City, CA. (00:03:20)

Do Rico - S3-E1

Revealing mistake: At the start, when Arthur returns the book to Carrie then asks if she'd like to jot down his musings, we can see through the back door's window, and the backyard set's foliage pattern wallpaper is falling off the backdrop. It's visible later as well. (00:02:45)

Strike One - S3-E5

Revealing mistake: In the kitchen, when Doug tells Carrie he knows the strike will end in 1 or 2 weeks tops because he's a Union Member, the blue shelves/cabinet on the wall behind Doug are positioned properly. Then, when Carrie asks him what the strike issues are, watch as the blue shelves move sideways behind Doug (this wall with blue shelves/cabinet is hinged to provide camera access). (00:13:00)

Super Grover

Swim Neighbors - S3-E22

Revealing mistake: When Carrie leans on the fence to hide from the Saskeys, the fence moves. Fair enough Carrie is not a professional carpenter and has put the fence up in an afternoon. However, Tim, explains that the fence is not likely to fall due to how well Carrie has built it. (00:06:00)

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.
