Continuity Errors

SO I was rewatching old eps in between Sundays in an effort to make the time go by faster and it made me see/realise/remember all the continuity errors that have bugged me along the way...

I'll start:

in 1.11 when we hear how Bette and Tina got together, Alice says something about how, she and Bette had broken up and were now in a best friends kind of place

BUT in 3.07 When Bette asks Alice if she remembers the aria, Alice says it was their 3rd date and Bette broke up with her after because she had a met a straight girl she could fall in love with.

Does anyone else have any?

507

Ok, I'll do another. A lot of people have commented on this in the forums already.

We recently (sorry can't remember which ep) saw rehearsals for the Bev/Nina ovulating scene and it was clear that Gretchen (nina) did not know what she was doing (I think she even said so)

But in 507, Tina says they are going to release a statement saying Gretchen is the only lesbian on the cast?

Continuity on the L Word

On the subject of that scene, the better question is how did jenny even know about the encounter? If you go back and see the pilot, (when that scene aired), jenny was getting into town THAT MORNING!!! I doubt very seriously that Tina or Bette told jenny about it!

Huh?

When you put "continuity" and "The L Word" close to each other in a sentence or paragraph, my brain caves in and fairies drop dead everywhere. Those two things go together like bleach and ammonia.

By that I mean, perfectly. :)

The L word and Continuity? What!?

as much as i love the l word, it really is the most inconsistant T v programme ever. when in any other programme have main characters just disappeared? and they all happen to know each others business even the characters who have just came into the show.

 

but thats why im addicted you never no what the hell is going on or whats going to happen

Just this whole ex-girlfriend becoming best friend things i mean its you and your ex, me and my ex its really my idea of some kind of nightmare lesbian dinner party. - Bette, TLW

season 1

shane's old hooker buddy is staying with her, and she catches him going thru her bags for money.  he claims he was just looking for a smoke.  she says, 'you know all those no smoking and smoking kills women signs all over my house?  i don't smoke.  you know i don't smoke'

 i can't even imagine shane not smoking.  in every other episode she's a chimney.  a gorgeous, smouldering chimney... but a chimney nonetheless.

papi?

this isn't exactly a continuity error but even though papi wasn't necessarily my favorite character...it was so random how she just disappeared this season with NO explanation whatsoever. she just rode off into the sunset. maybe she apparated to hogwarts.
