The One with the Dozen Lasagnas - S1-E12

Continuity mistake: When Rachel is talking with Phoebe about Paolo,. she unrolls some kitchen paper and uses it as a tissue. Initially she's holding two torn halves attached to the roll, then when saying "He's a pig" it goes to a whole sheet not attached to any others, then when she sits down it's a whole sheet attached to the roll again. Plus when Phoebe sits too, in some shots the paper is on the table, in others it's not. (00:15:20)

Visible crew/equipment: When Ross is on the balcony trying to comfort Rachel after she has split up with Paolo, we see a couple of shots from the balcony looking into Monica's apartment. If you look at the top of the screen you can see where the walls of the set end, and all the stage lights hanging from the ceiling of the studio. (00:18:35)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: The show sent a crew to New York to film the clothes being thrown from the same building that is used in establishing shots. In a wide-screen version of the episode, the clothes can be seen being thrown out a window (although in the episode the clothes are supposedly thrown off a balcony).

Other mistake: At the end, Monica is playing as red, but we see the blue team score on the foosball table. However, Monica states that she scored and beat Joey and Chandler again. A previous correction says to look closely as the red team scores, That correction is completely invalid as the player in goal is red. Why would Monica score in her own goal? And Also the blue players can be seen to spin. (00:22:10)

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.
