How many inconsistencies can you think of?

1) Darnell says he's in his 30s, and the actor is 36 at the time, one season after it's revealed that warden appeared in an adult film recorded in Darnell's apartment, apparently in the '80s. Unless Darnell was a few years older than the actor and/or he met the warden in the late '80s, Darnell is too young for this to have occurred.

2) Adding to #1, Darnell is later revealed to have been a frequently deployed secret agent from a young age, so how did he have an apartment with someone and have such big hair?

3) Catalina's journey to Camden is told twice, taking place both around the turn of the millennium when Earl & Joy were already married and around the time Earl & Joy got married. Maybe the events in Y2K take place immediately after Earl & Joy get married, but the timeline is muddled.

4) Earl has his El Camino when he seduces a Camdenite woman but he only gets the car after he meets/marries Joy, and it's never even hinted that Earl ever cheated on Joy.

5) If Camden's such a small town, then how had Earl & Randy never been in the Crab Shack as stated in a flashback in The Frank Factor?. According to the final episode, Earl was there for the previous Halloween party and though very drunk, he remembered being there and what costume he wore.

6) How did Ernie's Crab Shack remain open for years after it's owner disappeared? Employees could have been paid in cash, but who wrote checks to pay bills, taxes, etc?

7) The two-part episode of Inside Probe about Ernie's disappearance could not air until after Darnell left the witness protection program because he was featured in it and his cover was quickly blown when he appeared on Estrada or Nada, and yet two episodes of Cops with him in it aired multiple times with no concern about his cover being blown.

8) Earl's dad considered a date in 1989 to be significant because that's when Earl moved out even though Earl moved back in at least once and lived there 10 years later.
