Birthday bloopers (2 bloopers)
1. TOW George Stephanopolous + TOW Five Steaks and an Eggplant +
TOW Joey's New Girlfriend
In TOW George Stephanopolous, Ross says that his birthday was seven
months ago. The show aired at 25 October, so this means that his birthday
was in March. However, in TOW Joey's New Girlfriend Ross tells Gunther
that is birthday is in December. In another episode, TOW Five Steaks and an
Eggplant, the gang is throwing Ross a birthday party. This was in October.
So ... his birthday is in October, March and December? ...
2. TOW Nana Dies Twice + TOW the Two Parts
In TOW Nana Dies Twice Rachel said she thought chandler was gay until
Phoebe's birthday party when he spent all day looking at her breasts. This
was the 8th episode of the first season, and don't forget that Rachel only
met Phoebe in the first episodes of that season. In that same season, in
episode 117 (TOW the Two Parts) it is Phoebe's birthday again. How could
she have 2 birthday in only 17 episodes? ...
Acting bloopers (4 bloopers)
1. TOW the Stoned Guy
Chandler refers to the WENUS as the "Weekly Estimated Net Usage
Systems". However the line was really supposed to be "Weekly Estimated
Net Usage Statistics". (thanx to Shainna)
2. TOW Mr heckles dies
After joey and chandler have been talking in mr hackles appartment, as
chandler leaves he says "see you matt" but it sounds so much like "man"
that they kept it in. listen out for it you my have to go through it a couple of
time but he does say it. Just after joey starts questioning his speach. (thanx
to Heather)
3. TOW Five Steaks and an Eggplant
At the end, Joey was supposed to jump to the phone and say "Bob
here!", but he missed the phone and fell. The blooper was so good so the
producers decided to keep it there.
4. The One With Phoebe's Uterus
When Chandler says "Donald Trump wants his blue blazer black", I'm
sure that must be a blooper, but they left it in cause the other guys reacted
so well. The only reason i think this is because there's no need for the bit
that follows, and the original line "wants his blue blazer back" would have
been the intended joke. (thanx to Neil)
Plotline bloopers (32 bloopers)
1. TOW the Pilot + The One With the Sonogram at the End
In the pilot ep we see Rachel come in from running out on her wedding
etc. but not once, throughout, do we see a ring on her finger
(engagement...per se) however, in the 2nd ep Rachel is upset over losing
the ring & she "had it on" & ends up losing it in the lasagna. Ok. Where was
the ring in the pilot episode??? (thanx to Lisa)
2. TOW George Stephanopoulos + TOW Eddie Won't Go
Monica finds out that Phoebe slept with Jason Hurley a couple of hours
after he and Monica broke up, and in TOW Eddie Won't Go she finds it out
again, and again she seems surprised.
3. TOW the Butt
Rachel is excited for seeing Joey's play, and we learn it's the first time
she sees him in a play because Chandler says: "You can always spot
someone who's never seen one of his plays before". But after the play Joey
says that at least this play's better than the one with the trolls, and
everyone say "that's right", including Rachel. But how could she know if she
hasn't seen him act before???
4. TOW the East German Laundry Detergent + TOW George
Stephanopoulos
Monica says to Angela that her brother didn't tell her when he lost his
virginity, but earlier, in TOW George Stephanopoulos, Monica even knew the
exact date when Ross and Carol did it for the first time, which was Ross's
first time.
5. TOW Nana Dies Twice + TOW the Flashback
Joey says that he didn't think Chandler was gay the first time they met,
but in TOW the Flashback it shows that Joey thought Chandler was gay, but
never told him.
6. TOW The Dozen Lasagnas
The lasagnas contain meat, but Phoebe, a vegetarian, was eating one
later. (thanx to Shainna)
7. TOW The Dozen Lasagnas + TOW All the Kips
Chandler says his old roommate Kip left the appartment when he got
married, but in TOW All the Kips, it's hinted that Kip left after he and Monica
broke up and he got phased out.
8. TOW the Boobies
Joey´s father asks for Ross wife. Joey´s father seems to know the gang,
including Ross before he discovered Carol was lesbian. But Joey met Ross
when he discovered that. How is that possible? Did Joey's father met Ross
before his son? (thanx to GIL IRURITA)
9. TOW Underdog Gets Away
When they all go outside to see the underdog, neither Rachel nor
Monica take the keys and actually LOCK the door, yet it's locked when they
came back. This could happen if you can't open the door from outside
except with keys. However, in every other Friends episodes, everyone pops
in the appartment without having keys ...... Also, wouldn't they always want
to lock the door, it is NY ....
10. TOW Ross Finds Out + TOW The List
We learn that Monica had a cat while she was younger (Ross and Julie
are picking up his old cat toys). But in the next episode, TOW The List,
Monica is asked if she is allergic to something and she says "cat hair". How
can she be allergic to cat hair and have a cat at the same time? ...
Also...Another thing on Monica being allergic to cat hair...She pets
Phoebe's "mom", but claims to have itchy eyes and a runny nose when
Rachel's HAIRLESS cat is 6 ft. from her (thanx to Shainna)
11. TOW Dr. Remoray Dies
Ross asks Rachel who she has slept with...in which she includes Ross in
her list. Yet, Ross say, "Come on, you know everyone I've been with. All,
both of them." Yet there were three people he was spelt with, Carol (1),
Julie (2), and Rachel (3). (thanx to Angela)
12. TOW the Bullies
When ross says to monica that their dad knows someone she can call for
a job, phoebe says that that was the 3rd sign today but she says she passed
a buffet (1) they were serving franks (2) and there was a spinning chicken
(3) so ross talking about their dad would be #4. (thanx to Fuzzybunny22)
13. TOW the Metaphorical Tunnel + TOW the Dollhouse
Rachel agrees with the fact that when a man says "I'll call you", he
usually doesn't call. However, in TOW the Dollhouse, Chandler says he told
Joanne he'll call her but wasn't going to do it, and then Monica asks Rachel
if it never happened to her, that a guy said he'll call but didn't, and Rachel
said "they always called", like she didn't know that guys don't mean it.
14. TOW The Flashback
in the begining Janice asks the FRIENDS "Who of the six of you has
slept with who of the six of you?" To which Ross replies "If sorry the
answer would be none of us." This episode takes place after TOW Ross and
Rachel . . . You Know and a while after Ross and Rachel have been together.
So why did Ross say that nobody has slept together when him and Rachel
have already done it? (thanx to Angela)
15. TOW the Jam + TOW Mrs. Bing
We learn that Joey has 7 sisters, yet in TOW Mrs. Bing, Joey asks Ross
(about his own mother), "you think it's easy giving birth to seven children?"
... So how many sisters DOES Joey have, 6 or 7?
16. I don't know if you would consider this a blooper, but it has always
confused me. In most of the episodes including the one with the prom
video, and the one with the lady after Ross' monkey, it seems as though
Rachel and Monica were best friends in highschool. They seemed
inseperable. However, (I can't remember the exact episode) when Rachel
and Monica run into each other at the coffee house where Rachel is with her
screaming friends, they acted like mere acquantinces. Monica seemed like
she couldn't really stand Rachel. Saying something about "Bet you $10, I'll
never see her again." If there were so close in school, wouldn't they have
been happier to see each other? Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but it's
always confused me a bit. (thanx to Eric Smith)
17. TOW Chandler Crosses The Line + TO That Could Have Been
In TOW Chandler Crosses The Line, and Ross play the keyboards to
Chandler, Rachel, Phoebe and Monica, he says: "I’ve never played my stuff
for anyone before, so it’s important that-that you understand it’s about
communicating very private emotions.", but in TO That Could Have Been,
when Ross and Rachel are in Central Perk, Ross tells her that the last time
they saw each other was: "at Sean McMahon’s party. I played you one of my
songs, y’know Interplanetary Courtship Ritual." So, did Ross have play or
not for other people before? (thanx to Lizse)
18. TOW Chandler in a box + TOW Ross can't flirt
Chandler tells Kathy that Joey knows only "bad words" in Italian but
then in TOW Ross can't flirt, Joey is talking Italian with he's grandmother
(and I guess he's not saying bad words to her....) (thanx to Eliana Avitzour)
19. TOW The Embryos + TOW Mr. Heckles dies
In the episode where Mr. Heckles dies, Ross is trying to convince
Phoebe that evolution exists. Ross says to Phoebe its a known fact like
gravity. Then Phoebe replies "don't even get me started on gravity." In a
later episode when Frank and his wife have their eggs and sperm implanted
in Phoebe, she says she is just going to let gravity take it's coarse...I
thought she didn't believe in gravity.
20. TOW Nana Dies Twice + TOW the flashback
Rachel mentioned that she thought Chandler was gay when she first met
him. If she thought he was gay at first, why did she have this "meaningless
sex" fantasy about him later in the car in TOW the flashback? (thanx to
Nina)
21. TOW the worst best man ever + TOW Chandler can't cry
At the end, Ross, Joey and Chandler all get choked up when Ross
decides to make them both his best man. However in TOW Chandler can't
cry, Joey says Chandler is "dead inside". If he was why would he start to cry
when Ross makes him one of his best man? (thanx to Melika Perry)
22. TOW Ross Moves In
Rachel tells Monica she doesn't go for guys right after they get divorced.
Has anyone forgot Joshua? He was just getting a divorce when Rachel
desperately wanted to go out with him.
23. TOW All the Resolutions
Phoebe tells Joey that she doesn't know the actual names of the chords
played in the guitar. However, in the episode, T.O.W. the baby on the bus,
Phoebe clearly insinuates to Stephanie, the professional guitar player, that
she knows Am and D. (thanx to caio)
24. TOW Chandler In a Box + TOW Joey's Big Break
When Rachel goes with Monica to the eye doctor they are conversing
about how cute the on-call doctor is. Rachel says the comment "So cute I'm
thinking about jamming this pen in my eye!" However, in TOW Joey's Big
Break, Rachel has a problem with things coming near her eye (and with
good reason!), and then Ross starts explaining about her having this weird
thing with her eye. Since Ross seemed to be the only one who knew about
it, someone could easily assume she had told him about it when they were
together. TOW Chandler In A Box happened after they broke up though, so
did she develop a weird eye phobia and only told Ross some time after this
ep., or did she just temporarily forget?
(thanx to RachelKGreene)
25. TOW Ross' Denial
Monica was soooo concerned about Chandler's lounger not
matching....Has no one informed her that NONE of her kitchen chairs
match?! (thanx to Shainna)
26. TO That Could Have Been
When Ross introduces Chandler and Rachel, he says, "and you
remember my friend Chandler." But how could Chandler and Rachel ever
met if Chandler didn't even meet Ross until college, and the last time Ross
knew Rachel was in high school?
This is interesting (and funny at the same time): this is a dispute I had
with Andrew on this blooper. It took a couple of emails and it was so funny
that I decided to share it with you:
Andrew: In reply to the blooper In TO That Could Have Been, when Ross
introduces Chandler and Rachel, he says, "and you remember my friend
Chandler." But how could Chandler and Rachel ever met if Chandler didn't
even meet Ross until college, and the last time Ross knew Rachel was in
high school?" - the last statement is incorrect. Ross did meet Rachel after
high school, he ran into her at various Thanksgiving holidays - where
Chandler was also present (TOW All The Thanksgivings).
Me: Now it's my turn to dispute your dispute ... In TO That Could Have
Been, Ross says the last time they saw each other was in high school,
meaning all the thanksgivings we saw were actually flashbacks from the
"reality", but in this episode, the reality is different, therefore there were no
thanksgivings as we saw them, and Chandler didn't meet Rachel.
Andrew: I was re-watching the episode again the other day and I
noticed that Ros doesn't actually say in the alternate reality that the last
time they saw each other was in high school - he says the last time they
met was "1987, the day after Christmas, at Sean McMahon's party". He says
this in Central Perk when Monica and Rachel are greeting each other. In
TOW All The Thanksgivings the first Thanksgiving flashback is set in 1987 at
the latest (the 1st isn't dated in the episode but the 2nd is in 1988), which
predates the last time they met in the alternate reality by a month or so -
which means that Chandler could well have met Rachel either at that
Thanksgiving or at the Boxing Day party, if Ross had taken him to either...
but even if it's not explicitly mentioned that he did, it's not ruled out either.
27. TOW Chandler Can't Cry
Everyone's watching "Bambi" and Phoebe says, "I cried for three days
with that one. But on the 3rd day, my Mom killed herself, so I was partly
crying for that," or something to that effect. But in "TOW Old Yeller Dies,"
from a few seasons ago, the whole episode was built around the fact that
Phoebe's Mom used to turn off sad movies before the sad parts, so Phoebe
had never seen anything sad in a movie. So why would Phoebe have ever
seen "Bambi"?? (thanx to Kim Allen)
28. TOW Rachel smokes + TOW the two parties
Rachel tells her friends (who smoke) that her dad is a doctor and always
told her horror stories.....about ghosts and goblins who supported the
princesses right to smoke. (she was going to say horror stories about
people who had smoking problems)....yet in TOW the two parties, Rachels
dad sent Ross to get his ciggarettes. Does he or does he not smoke? (thanx
to Andrea)
29. The entire time Ross was going out with Elizabeth, the gang teased
them about the age difference including Monica. However no one seemed to
remember when Monica dated and bedded "Young Ethan" who turned out to
be a senior in High school. (thanx to Melika)
30. TOW Rachel's book
Chandler and Monica are talking about their future and Chandler talks
about how many kids their gonna have and how they are going to have a
cat. Monica loves the idea but says "when you were talkin’ about our future
you said cat, but you meant dog right." and Chandler says yes. But a few
weeks later at Thanksgiving when Pheobe asks if she can keep the dog she
found, Monica says no because Chandler is allergic. Why would she suggest
getting a dog instead of a cat if he's allergic. Did she find out after? (thanx
to Melika)
Also: In another episode phoebe asks chandler and monica to look after
three puppies, to which monica and chandler agree. She then says "I dont
mean puppies I mean frank and alice's kids" So chandler sounds fine to look
after puppies. So what is it with Chandler and dogs?? (thanx to Rebecca
Townsend)
31. TOW the Proposal (part 1) + TOW in Vegas (part 1)
Do you remember when Monica meets Richard without a Mustache? A
long time after that, in TOW the Proposal (part 1), Monica sees Richard at
the restaurant and remarks "I see you let your mustache grow out". Now,
that would have been right if it wasn't for one little thing. In the end of the
fifth season, before the gang goes to Las Vegas (TOW in Vegas part 1),
when Monica is telling Phoebe about her "grabbing a bite" with Richard, she
refers to him as tall guy, with a mustache.
? So Monica already knew
Richard had let his mustache grow again. BIG ERROR!!! (thanx to caio)
32. TOW the Chicken Pox + season 7
In TOW the Chicken Pox, Monica told Richard she had to sleep on the
left side of the bed, however, in season 7 she is seen sleeping on the right
side of the bed, a number of times.
