Queasy Rider - S2-E1

Revealing mistake: When Doug comes into the garage the first time, if you look through the garage door, at the end of the fence is a very noticeable crease running vertically. This shows the outside is a fake. (00:06:55)

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)

Super Grover

Two Thirty - S4-E24

Plot hole: In this episode Arthur scams Deacon and several other parents for phony piano lessons because he doesn't actually know how to play the piano. However, earlier in the series (Art House episode, S1 - E24) we learn that Arthur can play the piano when he temporarily moves out and after his house warming party Doug says to Carrie, "Who knew Arthur could play the piano like that?"

Show generally

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.
