The One Where Emma Cries - S9-E2

Revealing mistake: When Emma starts crying and Rachel picks her up, look at how much the baby is moving when she takes it out of the cot. In the next shot it's suddenly only moving it's head, and very slowly at that. This is because it's a robot - and it's very obvious. (00:06:10)

The One With the List - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When Monica goes to the mockolate interview, at one point she says "abso...lutely." While she is saying this, the mockolate packet is in her hands, but when the shot changes, the packet is on the table. (00:06:10)

The One With Joey's New Brain - S7-E15

Continuity mistake: When Chandler, Ross and Monica are in Central Perk discussing playing bagpipes, and Ross says, "Decide whatever you want," he is gesturing with his right hand up and with an open book in his left hand. When the camera angle changes, the book is closed and is now in his right hand. (00:15:30)

The One Where Rachel Has a Baby, part 2 - S8-E24

Audio problem: As the nurse comes back from wrapping the new baby, we hear her say "Here she is," yet her mouth doesn't move to the words she is apparently saying. Even though her mouth is only visible during the "she is", she's not saying the words. Then she mouths some sort of "oh", but nothing is heard. (00:09:00)

Kathy: So, what did you do today?
Chandler: Well, I had an appointment to get my hair cut...
Kathy: Oh, it looks great!
Chandler: ...and then it got cancelled.

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.
