Friends

Correction: I have studied this scene very well and every time that Ross' hands are in view, you can see the magazine, "Busty Ladies", in his hands.

Show generally

Corrected entry: In an episode shortly after Rachel and Ross break up, Rachel makes reference to the fact that she is like Kip, yet she would never have met Kip because by the time she joined the group, Joey was already Chandler's roommate.

Correction: She could have heard the others talk about Kip, and compared herself to the mental image she had of this (to her) unknown person.

Twotall

Correction: It may be a long shot but it could happen. Not a mistake.

Ssiscool

Correction: We have no evidence of Monica and Chandler painting the wardrobe, so they wouldn't have found them.

Brad

The One With The Triplets - S5-E3

Corrected entry: Monica tells Chandler she is not going to go on the date with the man nurse. As she is walking away, Chandler is going to do a dance and she says don't do the dance. The dance she is referring to is the one he does where he hears that Monica is with someone who is the best sex she's ever had. How can she know about this dance if the first time she sees it isn't until the following episode?

Correction: Easy - Chandler probably does this dance all the time, and she knows him well enough to know that he does it when he wants to celebrate something.

Correction: Phoebe got the drink, and it is in scene all the time.

Ssiscool

Correction: There is a shot of phoebe and you can just make out Joey pulling the drink towards him. then it cuts to Phoebe and the drink is in front of Joey.

Ssiscool

Correction: She picks it up again as she moves to sit down then puts it down.

Ssiscool

Correction: The egg is in Ross's jacket pocket, not his hand. That is why Ross and Chandler awkwardly move off in kind of hug.

Stephen Cooney

The One with the Boobies - S1-E13

Corrected entry: In the coffee house when Joey's dad asks Ross "How's the wife?" he moves his head and makes a groaning sound. His lips do not visibly move, and there is no other indication that he made this noise. It also sounds strange and misplaced in the shot if you listen to it in surround sound, implying it was dubbed in afterwards. (00:04:10)

David Mercier

Correction: The sound that Ross makes is perfectly possible as his mouth is slightly open. You don't need to move your lips to groan.

Dwarf

Show generally

Corrected entry: In early seasons in Chandler and Joey's apartment, there is a shelf between the fridge and the wall. In later seasons the shelf has disapeared and the whole kitchen has shifted so the fridge is against the wall.

Correction: It is not unreasonable for something to disappear throughout 10 years. The kitchen area and equipment changes slightly, but not unreasonably given the timeframe, and it's not like they'd mention buying a new oven, etc. in the show.

Ssiscool

Correction: Subtitle mistakes on the dvd are not mistakes made by the show. They are DVD production mistakes.

Dwarf

Correction: How is this a mistake?

Ssiscool

Correction: There is no shadow.

Ssiscool

The One With The Birth Mother - S10-E9

Corrected entry: Joey can read Phoebe's mind! Joey asks for the phone number of Phoebe's friend. Phoebe gives Joey a pen. He writes the name of the girlfriend on his hand and gives the pen back. Phoebe never tells him the phone number. A couple of scenes later, Joey is having dinner with that girl.

Correction: Obviously time has passed since the first scene, Therefore it is very likely Pheobe could have given it Joey after she noticed the mistake or vice versa.

Ssiscool

Correction: No, their finger movements match the sound completely.

Correction: Rachel answers just in time and the answer is wrong so there was no time for a new question.

Ssiscool

Correction: The door hasn't been cut, it's the mirror that's hanging on the door. You see this when Monica switches walls with Phoebe. You also can see Phoebe pausing to look in the mirror.

Correction: Having just watched this episode, I can say that Ross starts to step down, camera cuts, then back to Ross and he's on the road.

Ssiscool

Correction: You can wear a bra and breastfeed. Many nursing bras even cover almost the entire breast while allowing a very small opening for latching.

The One With The Jellyfish - S4-E1

Question: When Ross and Rachel are fighting, Chandler hides behind the door and bursts out saying, "I knew it!" When Rachel says, "It's not that common, it doesn't happen to every guy, and it is a big deal!" is this just a Chandler moment or is there another joke I have missed?

Answer: The statements that she's contradicting (that it is common, it happens to every guy, and it's not a big deal), are the things that a woman commonly says to a man who is suffering from erectile difficulty, typically to assuage his bruised ego. However, most men do not believe that these statements are true, as evidenced by Chandler's outburst. He's so caught up in the proof that women are lying about it that he gives himself away.
