my OCD on TV

Don't you hate the way that sitcom writers or producers make changes in their shows and expect the viewing public not to notice? I was just watching a rerun of Seinfeld (the one where Jerry cheats on his barber), and Newman went into Jerry's bathroom to try to get a sample of hair for the barber to prove the cheating. The bathtub, in this scene, is immediately next to the sink, parallel with the wall that has the door in it.

HOWEVER, in the episode where Kramer tries to get Jerry to show him how he showers, since Kramer takes too much time in the shower and wants to trim down his routine, Jerry stands in the shower fully clothed, and the shower is on the adjacent wall, perpendicular to the wall that has the door in it.

Just like on the pilot episodes of shows... which wouldn't be a big deal, except that they rerun them and it's all weird.

On the first episode of the Cosby Show, there are only four kids -- Denise is the oldest (then Theo, Vanessa, and Rudy). In fact, at one point, Claire even says, "Why do we have four children?" And I think Cliff answers, "Because we didn't want five." As you well know, the actual show had five kids in it... they brought Sondra in later, saying that she'd been away at Princeton.

Similarly, in the first episode of the King of Queens, Carrie has a sister, who is played by the girl who played Vanessa's friend on the Cosby show, a token white friend who began a drinking game when Vanessa and her friends got drunk and who went with Vanessa and friends to see the Wretched in Baltimore on one of the funniest episodes ever. Anyway, the sister is in a couple of episodes and essentially disappears for all other episodes, never to be mentioned again... not to mention that Carrie is nice and friendly in the pilot, completely opposite of her entire schtick later in the show.

Anyway, just one of many inconsistencies that annoy those with OCD like me... They could at least acknowledge said differences!
