First time posting guys, but figured this has been eating at me long enough - wanted to see if anyone else caught this...The B roll shots of the house shows a front stoop with a narrow walk up and a front door with three window panes in the middle/top section. When it cuts to actual shots of inside the house, the front door has one big, gigantic stained glass type window. The garage only has one door but in the B roll, there are two doors, and on various occations (IE doug/deacon win the money, have to spend it all, homeless guy on Thanksgiving, etc) they show everyone out fron on a huge porch area, when again, clearly in the intro, there is no room at all for them all to stand. I love the show, but these mistakes have been EVERY EPISODE for SEVEN SEASONS. What gives?

Yes, Kevin and Michael Whithorn have addressed that before and they basically don't have any desire to re-do what's been done already. And nothing will ever be as bad as the snaffu in "Restaurant Row" when Arthur's Civil War videos gift from PBS just magically changes to a totally different box right there on the kitchen stove. Sometimes I think they just want to see if we're observant at all.

Oh....why did you spell McButterpants wrong?

Yeah, they really don't care about continuity of any form on this show.
