Character mistake: In this season we see Doug smoking cigars and cigarettes. However in S2 E1 Queasy Rider, Doug is shown to absolutely detest the smell and taste of smoke from these. It is highly unlikely that he would then take up smoking.

Genres: Comedy
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?"
Doug Heffernan: Hey, Deac, let me ask you, do you think Carrie's gained weight?
Deacon Palmer: Say what?
Doug Heffernan: Carrie, my wife, do you think she's gained a little weight, a couple pounds, maybe?
Deacon Palmer: I don't know. Every time I see her she's blocked by you.
Trivia: In many episodes when Doug is hurt, startled, angry etc., he will yell "Yuspa." Cathy Yuspa is one of the two writers on the show.
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.
