Visible crew/equipment: When the Conners' friends come over and say "Hey Jailbird!" to Dan, a microphone can be seen coming down and going back up in the top left corner.
Revealing mistake: When Dan calls Becky, there is a shot of her and Mark in their Minneapolis apartment. This is the exact same set that is used later for Darlene's Chicago apartment when she goes to college. The fireplace shape and style, the wallpaper, position of the bathroom door, and the windows are exactly the same. The only difference is that the Darlene version looks shabbier.
Revealing mistake: After Charlotte picks out a dress with Roseanne in the kitchen, and she tells Darlene that she should also go to the prom, she runs from the kitchen like she is going home, but she is running between the kitchen and outside wall of laundry room. (00:08:00)
Visible crew/equipment: While Darlene is at the jail to post bail for Dan, when she says, "I guess I should prepare you for all the things that have changed," the boom mic casts a shadow on the wall, at the right side of the screen. (00:04:25)
Other mistake: After the crazy guy threatened Roseanne when she was working alone at the Lunch Box, Dan wanted to teach her and Jackie how to use a gun for protection. Dan seems to have forgotten that Jackie was a cop for the Lanford Police Force and already is trained in firearms use. He regularly saw her in uniform with a sidearm.
Halloween IV - S5-E7
Plot hole: Just before Roseanne arrives at the Lodge Halloween party, Fischer is holding a small object in his hand that he slightly adjusts to a certain position. Roseanne then arrives dressed as Lady Liberty. When she raises her torch and asks someone for a light, Fischer immediately flicks on the cigarette lighter that he was already conveniently holding and ready to ignite for no apparent reason.
Answer: Yes she was. When Laurie Metcalf, who played Jackie, became pregnant during the series, her pregnancy was written into the storyline; her pregnant belly is real. At the end of the episode where Jackie gives birth, there is a photo of Laurie Metcalf in the hospital just after she had her baby.
