What is the time-line of the series?
The following is the best that can be managed: December 22, 1989 • Paul and Jamie meet at a news-stand a Sunday evening [1.11]. They meet again in Fran’s (NOT Jamie’s) office the very next day, in the afternoon. December 28, 1989 • The first time Paul ends up at Jamie’s apartment at 142 West 81st Street [2.2]. February 14, 1991 • Jamie gets her promotion to Regional VP (Fran’s job). Fran quits her job to spend time with Mark and Ryan. Paul and Jamie move into their new apartment at 12th Street & Fifth Avenue [2.16]. April, 1992 • Paul and Jamie get married, 5 months prior to the series premiere [1.1]. The month is confirmed in the Wedding episode [3.13]. The date is still in question; see section 3.3.
