Season 3 Trivia

  • Episode 05 - Goof (continuity error): When Keith explains why he can't attend David's concert it is because he has work until 9 (and the concert is at 7:30). The next day, his shift end time has changed to 11.
  • Episode 13 - Goof (continuity error): When Claire is dancing with baby Maya after Ruth and George's wedding, Maya is wearing shoes/naked feet in no logical sequence.

  • Episode 11 - The only episode to include a death in the middle of the episode as well as in the opening teaser (multiple unrelated deaths resulted in a busy funeral schedule).
