Lippman Errata - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

sinatrastar · 11-07-2003, 08:49 PM

In the episode The Letter there is the scene where Lippman is telling the story about his friend's daughter the artist and the Baltimore cap incident. In the story Lippman says "her daughter gives the tickets away" instead of "his" daughter since he was talking about his male friends' daughter. I gotta check a script on that, but Im sure he got it wrong.

A blooper perhaps?

Maestro · 11-07-2003, 08:55 PM

The scripts (on the internet) don't always confirm some of those details.
Your prob right.
Here's seinology's script, looks like they say "her" & his at the other parts.

LIPPMAN

into phone)...yeah, yeah. But she wouldn't take the cap off? (beat) But didn't she know they were the owner's seats? (beat) Aw, that's unbelievable. (beat) Yeah. Okay. Alright Lenny, thanks again. Take care. (hangs up the phone, and then, to Elaine) That was Lenny West, my accountant, who is a hell of a guy. And he handles the Yankees too; it's his biggest account. So every once in a while they throw him a couple of seats and last weekend he gave them to his daughter. She's an artist, by the way. Anyway, her daughter gives 'em to some friends, you know. One of her friends shows up wearing a Baltimore cap! (beat) You're from Baltimore, right?

Not a funny blooper, more of a sinatra needs to get a life and not watch this show so closely blooper.

Where's Dick Clark and Ed McMahon when you need 'em.

Maestro · 11-08-2003, 07:56 PM

sinatrastar, I saw it last night, he does say "her" daughter when he should say "his."

Not sure how you caught that, it flows pretty well with the mess-up... good eye

I think Lippman is a good character.

sinatrastar · 11-08-2003, 08:03 PM

Yes - Serious yet funny. You never knew if he was leading Elaine on or really knew that was her in the photo.

Maestro · 11-10-2003, 01:15 PM

I never understood this one, it also sounds wrong.
154 The Millennium.
K & Newmy establish that their parties are planned for New Year's Eve, 1999.
But at the end of the ep, J & Newman have this convo, seems their parties would have been early, not late////???
blooper????:

J: By the way Newman, I'm just curious. When you booked the hotel, did you book it for the millennium New Year?

NEWMAN: (smug) As a matter of fact, I did.

J: Oh, that's interesting, because as everyone knows, since there was no year zero, the millennium doesn't begin until the year two-thousand and one. Which would make your party, one year late, and thus, quite lame.

Does my explanation in the other thread make any sense?
