The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate - S1-E1

Audio problem: The camera cuts briefly to Chandler as the friends are discussing Monica's love life. During this very brief time, you can see Phoebe's mouth moving but there is no audio of her voice, and Monica's voice is heard talking in the background instead. (00:01:10)

The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate - S1-E1

Audio problem: When Phoebe says "I just don't want her to go through what I went through with Carl" the camera cuts to Chandler's reaction. When you look at the bottom Phoebe's mouth is moving even though she's not speaking. (00:01:39)

The One with the Thumb - S1-E3

Audio problem: When Monica is first seen in the kitchen complaining about taking a guy home, the other chef is cutting some items up. However, the audio of the knife clicking as it hits the board is overdubbed. (00:08:00)

The One with the Blackout - S1-E7

Audio problem: When Phoebe is counting down to the last candle burning out you can see Joey blowing out the candle, but the sound of his blow is only heard a second later after he sits back. (00:22:50)

Suggested correction: You don't see Joey sit back. You see him blow the candle out and the screen just goes completely black. The audio is in sync too.

The One with the Dozen Lasagnas - S1-E12

Audio problem: The very last line of the episode (Monica saying "and I'm gone") is an overlay. (00:22:40)

Mistakes

The One With The Birth Mother - S10-E9

Visible crew/equipment: When Joey's telling Phoebe about having been at a nice restaurant with his date and how she took fries off his plate, in the shots facing Joey in the restaurant we can see the end of the set wall, with a 2x4 framed plywood board and a heavy duty extension cord hanging there.

Quotes

The One With Ross's Teeth - S6-E8

Monica: What happened to your teeth?
Ross: I whitened them.
Chandler: Really?
Ross: Yeah, what... What do you think?
Monica: Well, uh, I think I shouldn't look directly at them.
Ross: Come on, seriously.
Monica: Ross, they're really, really, really white!
Chandler: Yeah, what was wrong with your old... Human teeth?
Ross: Well, I did leave the gel on a little longer than it said to.
Monica: How much longer?
Ross: Uh, uh... A day.
Monica: Ross, you know that tonight is your date with Hillary?
Ross: I know! That's why I did it! Come on, are they really that bad?
Chandler: No. No, no, no, you'll be fine. Hilary's blind, right?
Monica: She will be after tonight.

Trivia

Trivia: The Magna-doodle on the door in the boys apartment has a different picture on it every episode. There is usually some tenuous connection between the picture and the plot of the episode.

Questions

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.
