The One With Ross's Library Book - S7-E7
Corrected entry: When Janice goes to Monica's apartment we see Joey arriving at his, but wasn't Joey already in, with Rachel making pancakes for him?
The One With The Flashback - S3-E6
Corrected entry: The English subtitles on the DVD state the last name of Barry is "Barber" - "Farber" is correct. (00:06:45)
Correction: That's a mistake made by the British subtitlers, not by the producers of the show.
Corrected entry: When Rachel hands her passport to the man at the airport, not only does the man read it upside down, but the picture on the passport is actually a picture of Monica from season 1.
Correction: This is not correct, it is a picture of Rachel from season 5-6.
The One With The Cake - S10-E4
Corrected entry: What has happened to Ross' tan? An average spray on tan lasts about a fortnight and, if he could wash it off, why didn't he just get rid of it immediately after the first time he is sprayed?
Correction: They don't say how much time passed between episodes. Just because the episode aired a week apart doesn't mean the events happen a week apart.
The One With Joey's New Brain - S7-E15
Corrected entry: When Ross is playing the bagpipes for the gang, Jennifer Aniston can't keep a straight face when Phoebe 'sings' along.
Correction: Why would she? It would be perfectly natural for Rachel to laugh but try to hide it in that situation. I see no mistake.
The One With Two Parties - S2-E22
Corrected entry: In the scene where Rachel is upset and hugging Ross, she mentions that on their family's boat on July 4th, her sister Karen would throw up over the side. Her sisters are Jill and Amy.
Correction: Rachel actually says "my sister Jill," so this is not a mistake.
The One With Phoebe's Wedding - S10-E12
Corrected entry: Orchids in Swedish is orkidéer, not lorkins. In fact, lorkins means nothing in Swedish.
Correction: It may just be that the Swedish guy is just mispronouncing 'orchids' with his Swedish accent.
The One With Phoebe's Dad - S2-E9
Corrected entry: When Phoebe is talking with her dad in Central Perk and he learns that her mom committed suicide years ago, he asks, "What about the girls?" He doesn't say anything, nor does Phoebe, about Frank, Jr., his son.
Correction: That's because Frank Jr. is his son with a different woman, who's still alive. Frank Jr. is Phoebe's half brother, remember. He's not worried about his son, only the girls, because they were left alone.
The One With The Ring - S6-E23
Corrected entry: When Phoebe accidentally allows Chandler's ring to be sold, she tells him that she overheard which restaurant the guy said he was taking his girlfriend to, so they can go find him and persuade him to exchange rings. However, in the previous scene we see that Phoebe was paying no attention at all to that guy - she was too busy trying on jewellery. She wasn't even within earshot of the guy, and we see from her reaction that she hadn't even noticed him at all before he left the store with the ring (during which time he doesn't say anything at all). (00:16:50)
Correction: She may have been trying on all the jewellery, but she would have certainly heard the guy say he was going to a certain restaurant with his girlfriend before he left. Obviously she then realised the ring the man bought was the one Chandler had his eye on so reacted.
The One With The Giant Poking Device - S3-E8
Corrected entry: When Monica and Rachel are banging their heads against the wall, you can see someone in the background by the bathroom when Rachel walks away towards the living room in pain while saying, "if it isn't a headboard, it isn't worth it."
Correction: That is Phoebe talking on the phone.
The One With The Invitation - S4-E21
Corrected entry: Phoebe shows Ross' invitation to everyone, stating "Ross let Ben address mine." The envelope has poor kid like handwriting. The address is a 4 line address and the invitation also has stamps on it. When the camera comes back to Phoebe, she's holding an envelope with just her name on it, with no stamps. When she puts down the envelope by her side, the 4 line address is back. (00:11:30)
Correction: Yes, there are two larger envelopes, but they are not meant to be the same envelope, it's wedding invitation etiquette. The actual invitation itself is inserted in the "inner envelope" with only Phoebe's name written on it (or as 'Phoebe and friend'), and this inner envelope is inserted in the "outside envelope" along with the reply card (in the small envelope), and it's the outside envelope which is stamped and addressed to Phoebe ("4 line address"). We even see Phoebe holding both larger envelopes while removing the reply card's small envelope, just as Monica says, "This is so amazing," and also see them when Rachel opens her own envelope.
The One with the Dozen Lasagnas - S1-E12
Corrected entry: At the end, Phoebe and Monica are sitting at the table eating the meat lasagna. Phoebe would not eat this as she is a vegetarian. (00:21:35)
Correction: Early on in the episode, Monica suggested vegetarians can scrape. It is possible that Phoebe is doing exactly that. Also, two episodes later ("The One with the Candy Hearts"), it is revealed that Phoebe, in fact, does enjoy meat, as long as no-one tells her it is meat she is eating. She is poor and has never been able to afford meat.
The One With Five Steaks and an Eggplant - S2-E5
Corrected entry: When the whole group is eating dinner, Ross miscalculates what everyone owes. At first, he states "Everyone owes 28 bucks." He assumes all six people will chip in, so he was starting from a total of $168. Ross then decides, "Monica shouldn't have to pay" (since it's her birthday), so he instead divides the total by five to get each person's individual amount owed. He can be heard saying, "So... five of us is... $33.50 a piece." $33.50 is incorrect. He should have arrived at a figure of $33.60, ten cents higher per person, because $168 divided by 5 is $33.60. (00:10:05)
Correction: So Ross rounded to the nearest half-dollar. That's not a mistake.
Corrected entry: The first version of Central Perk's logo, seen from season 1, presents a perspective error on the right top corner of the left cup of coffee. Some seasons later, the logo receives a tiny correction in the same area, that makes the perspective "OK" to the eye. The cup line straightens up, and the steam is brought a little closer to the ribbon containing the name.
The One Where Eddie Won't Go - S2-E19
Corrected entry: Rachel says that Phoebe slept with Jason Hurley one hour after they broke up. Monica seems surprised by this even though she already found out that Phoebe slept with him right after he and Monica broke up in "TOW George Stephanopalous". (00:14:30)
Correction: The understanding is misconstrued. Monica knew that Phoebe had slept with him (ergo The One with George Stephanopoulos); the surprise comes from the fact that she had slept with him only one hour following their breakup. This is not a continuity mistake but a misunderstanding of meaning.
The One With Ross's Denial - S6-E3
Corrected entry: In the scene where Rachel asks Phoebe if she can live with her Phoebe claims to have a roommate called Denise. However in a previous episode 'The one in Vegas part 1' Rachel and Phoebe are talking about walking around the apartment naked and Rachel says "you live on your own" to which Phoebe agrees saying "Yeah, why do you think it takes me so long to answer the door".
The One Where Ross And Rachel Take A Break - S3-E15
Corrected entry: In the one where Rachel and Ross take a break, Rachel suggests that she and Ross take a break from dating each other. However, in later episodes she denies that they were ever on a break in the first place.
The One with Mrs. Bing - S1-E11
Corrected entry: In this episode when Joey is talking about his mother he mentions that she gave birth to 7 children. But Joey has 7 sisters which means that including him she gave birth to 8.
Correction: Joey probably forgot to count himself, remember, he's not that bright.
The One Where Chandler Can't Cry - S6-E14
Corrected entry: Phoebe says that she cried for three days after seeing Bambi, although on the 3rd day her mother killed herself so she was partly crying for that. Back in season 2: "The One Where Old Yeller Dies", she finds that her mother would never let her see the ending of sad movies so it seems unlikely that she would let her watch a film like Bambi.
Correction: Phoebe's mother was busy planning her suicide, so she wasn't really likely to be checking what films her children were watching.
Correction: The death of Bambi's mother happens quite a bit before the end, so Phoebe's mother may not have realised that that moment in the film happened so early on, and accidentally let her see it.
The One With The Embryos - S4-E12
Corrected entry: When the Gynaecologist says we insert 5 embryos for a 25% chance one will attach. Wouldn't one in five be a 20% chance?
Correction: That's not how the statistics work. There's no guarantee that any embryos will attach at all - presumably the odds of any one embryo attaching is 5%, so adding 5 makes the odds 25%. It has to be a balance between ensuring a vaguely decent chance of a viable pregnancy vs. the risk of having multiple babies. For example if they inserted 20 embryos to potentially "guarantee" at least one would attach, at least statistically, the odds would be much much higher of say 5 of them attaching, which would cause great complications for the mother and indeed the fetuses, not all of which would likely survive.
Correction: We don't know how much time has passed. Joey might have stepped out for whatever reason.
