Do you have a good eye? Can you spot them in certain episodes?


I have only gathered a few errors - minor, but annoying... (except the second one was funny)


1) In Season 2; episode, "Agents In America, Part III" -

Daphne has just presented Bebe Glazer with a "tasty" dog biscuit...Daphne then exits and briefly shows her walking rather quickly to her bedroom - the camera slowly pans to Frasier and Martin... but when it goes back to Bebe - Daphne is halfway to her room...she was almost there when she FIRST started walking to IT!

Long hallway?
Did she grab a bottle of sherry on the way?
Perhaps Daphne stopped to give Bebe a rude gesture!

Or it could have been an editing mistake *gasps*


This next one was minor - I noticed it last night: (barely tips the scale)

2) Season 8; Episode, "And the Dish Ran Away With the Spoon, Part 2" -

Beware of projectile spit

Niles and Daphne are having this romantic evening planned by Frasier on the rooftop of Elliot Bay Towers...

Daphne: Looks like we're having that first date after all.
Niles: You went to so much trouble!

After Niles said "trouble" - spit flew out of his mouth. (I put the scene on slow motion and followed the spit, leaping from his mouth and going down to his lapel and jump back up into his plate of food)

I found this funny because in the movie bloopers to "Down With Love" - David Hyde Pierce couldn't get through one of his lines because he had too much spit in his mouth! :lol:


3)Season 9; "Wheels Of Fortune"

This is something I spotted during Hurricane Jeanne:

Frasier stands up while Blaine Sternin (Michael Keaton) is preaching and goes, "Baaaaaaah!!!" Right after he did that, Kelsey Grammer starts to laugh, but then gets back into the "seriousness" of his lines.


That is all for now:) If you have any to add, feel free!

Heres one that kills me.


There is an episode where Frasier tells a Jewish woman that he is Jewish, and then Martin tells him that all he has to do to seem Jewish is answer a question with a question. So you know, Frasier is doing all sorts of things to act Jewish, as if he isnt used to being around Jews.


...yeah, Lilith is Jewish...so you know, Frasier should have a good idea.


That is only kind of a continuity error, not completely, but it still annoyed me, and I hadnt had any opprotunity to bitch about it :P

Or I have, I just forgot that I did, and as such am doing so again.

Maybe Lilith wasn't a practicing Jew during their marriage, so he wouldn't know as much.

I've only ever noticed one mistake. When Frasier and his Dad are talking you can see a bag of chips on the side table between them. As you go from sceen to sceen the bag moves from laying down to being at a more 45% angle. I watched that scene a ton of times before I ever noticed it.

I have watched a lot of different sereis and caught continuity errors in many of them. However the show that I have watched in which the errors seem to be the most numorous and most odvious is the "Flintstones"! What do other folks think of that observation?
