I know TGG is full of bloopers but I thought the fans should know. Who knows? Maybe this could be a thread for TGG Bloopers.

In one episode, Rose wanted a cat (not sure which episode) but Dorothy reminded Rose she was allergic.
But in the episode that tells how the girls first met, Rose is looking at the rent ads on a billboard and she's HOLDING A CAT (Mr. Peepers)
How can she be allergic to cats if she's holding one and not sneezing her head off?

There was also the episode where she is reminded she is allergic to cats, where she is addicted to those pills and she thinks she needs to take them and lies to the girls saying "It's the anniversary of my beloved cat fluffy" and then Dorothy says "Rose, your allergic".

I see where they could have screwed up

Yep. I remember that one.

There was even an episode where she talked about her cat Lindstrom Lindstrom.
Another episode she talked about the cat she had when her children were little, Mr. McTavish.
Rose wasn't allergic to cats obviously, but for some reason; that episode, the writers had Dorothy say that.

My only guess is that they didn't bother to watch past episodes.

I have an idea that whomever was in charge of continuity on TGG was on drugs! I think there were four different versions of Dorothy's prom...

1) Stan took her and got her pregnant
2) A popular boy asked her (Hal Linden guest-starred) he showed up looking like a bum and Sophia sent him away
3) Her brother (or some relative) took her
4) She never went

An issue that always bothered me was that they used Harold Gould as Myles and then in earlier episodes as Arnie.....! Rose dated them both, but they were the same actor! What, did they think we wouldnt remember that it was the same guy?

MavFan92 · 04-24-2008, 10:19 PM

They also used the same actor twice another time that I can recall - he played Rose's date, Isaac Q. Newton AND a friend/neighbor who was a doctor married to Rita Moreno.

Yes that same actor played Isaac Q. Newton and the Doctor in the episode "Empty nest" i think.

There is an ep where Rose is telling her story about the Juggling Herring and they shot one out of the cannon. There is a mayonaise jar behind her that disappears and then reappears a couple times.

The one that bothers ME the most is Blanche's children!

In one episode she says she'll give Dorothy one of her sons and she names them: Biff, Doug, Skippy (who has asthma!) - then she says she's had FOUR kids

But in two other separate episodes she talks about her daughters or they guest appear--Janet and Rebecca!

Three boys plus two girls does not equal four children!

Another that bothered me was who the son was that Dorothy and Stan conceived that caused them to get married. It was supposed to be Michael (I guess, Kate does not appear to be 40 when she gets married in the first season), but when Michael wants to marry Lorraine he is only 28 - and since Dorothy and Stan were married 38 years, that doesn't add up.

The last one I've noticed is how long the girls lived together. The show was on for seven years, and in the last episode Dorothy says "What can you say about seven years?"--but in the first season when they go to that counselor because they aren't getting along they say they've already lived together for two--that would mean they lived together for nine years.

I try to think of the bloopers like in the Simpsons -- just because the episodes don't string together exactly, doesn't mean this wasn't the best show ever on television!! (GG, not the Simpsons obviously!)

Here's a good one:

I was watching the EP "The Housekeeper" , with marguerite as the maid they hired. A scene showed dorothy out on the lanai barbecueing, but you can clearly see no propane tank on the barbecue. lol. Must be a magic grill!

Blanche also mentioned another son she had named Matthew.
