A few nights ago I was watching the episode where Miles has to leave when he finds out about the Cheeseman and asks Rose to go with him. She refuses because she won't be able to keep in contact with the girls or even let them know where she and Miles will be hiding out, so he leaves alone. In the very next episode we see Rose going out on a date with Ray and she says something like "Miles is in Europe with school kids!".
Then of course there is Dorothy suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in 2 episodes, then after that she's back to her usual fit and healthy self. With something like the illness she was suffering I don't think it would miraculously disappear. Oh, and then Blanche getting her pacemaker fitted...they said they were getting rid of the microwave but in episodes after that it's still there
There are PLENTY more inconsistencies, can you think of any?

Oh, boy. We did this before, but I'm sure MANY of us have noticed some of those (endearing inconsistencies). I started the topic last time, and several folks pointed out a few I missed:
--Sophia has 'perfect' hearing in one ep. and then brags about being able to hear a bird fart in Lauderdale if she turns her hearing aid up to 10!
One of my faves that I mentioned before but its one of the more GLARING ones: Why did Stan and Dorothy's kids seems so relatively YOUNG? If Dorothy was pregnant with Kate when they got married, Kate should be ABOUT 40 when we first meet her, and clearly she's younger--all the more glaring, cause Rose's kids looked "the right age" and Blanche at least had a grandchild we saw!
***********
I don't know if it's just me, but in a couple of the episodes, different actors played different family members. Did anyone else notice this? I can remember at one point Rose's kids being played by different actors and possibly Dorothy having a boyfriend played by Miles. I also remember two different actors playing Blanche's daughter Rebecca if I'm not mistaken. Even if I have gotten the names/people mixed up, I'm sure you guys have noticed that it's not always the same actors playing the girls' family members!! Weeeeeeird!

Oh yeah, that was the weirdest of them all because the first Rebecca had a weight problem and was pretty obese, yet the second Rebecca was slim and not one mention was made about how she must have suddenly gone on a crash diet and become a fitness freak, lol!

I also remember Dorothy, on many occasions, saying that she slept with Stan because he said he was going to war and would probably never see eachother again so she did it as part of the war effort, lol! Then, I remember in a much later episode, she said that she was unconscious the whole time and that Stan must have "slipped me something", with Sophia replying with something like "Evidently"

One time Rose dated a guy who also played Miles, but he had a different name. Im not sure if that was w/ the witness protection thing and Miles had his name changed or what...anybody remember what Im talking about? Where Rose and Miles' dude went on a cruise together.....
**********
I noticed that sometimes Dorothy's an English teacher and sometimes a history one. I know she's a substitute teacher but in my opinion that's an inconsistency
**********
I remember thinking that it was odd that Dorothy's sister, Gloria, and Dorothy' children, and Stan, for that matter,didn't attend the funeral for Dorothy's brother Phil. Also, Dorothy keeps threatening to send Sophia back to Shady Pines, but what about the episode where Sophia is accused of starting the fire that burned Shady Pines down to the ground? Will Sophia live among the ruins?
**********
Also Phils children ages and existince change every episode!
**********
In one episode the girls get Rose a dog that they call Jake and she starts with the "Rusty" story and mentions having a cat and then in the episode where Rose is addicted to those pills, we hear Dorothy say "You never had cats Rose. you're allergic"
**********
Another one, related to cats, is from the episode Blanche Delivers in which Sophia tells Dorothy why she named her Pussycat. She said "I love pussycats and I love you!" but in an earlier season episode where Dorothy's lesbian friend Jean falls for Rose, Sophia says "Personally I'd rather live with a lesbian than a cat, unless a lesbian sheds, that I dunno!".
Also I noticed in the episode Ebbtides Revenge, where Dorothy's brother Phil dies, she tells Rose she's nervous about having to give a eulogy and she asks Rose if she ever had to give one and she never mentioned the time that the she had to give a eulogy at her Aunts funeral. I know they didn't make it because of storms as they were flying out there, but surely Dorothy remembered that time?!
