The One with the Blackout (season 1, episode 7)

Mistake Revealing: When Chandler is choking on the gum, you can see it is still in the left side of his mouth in a huge lump.

Mistake Continuity: Rachel takes the cat to apartment number 8 and Mr. Heckles opens the door. However, in this episode, the girls' apartment is labeled number 5 which means that number 8 is above them. In later episodes, Mr. Heckles always says that the noisy girls upstairs are keeping him from doing things. [It makes a bit more sense later on in the series when Monica and Rachel's appartment changes to number 20, which is when Mr Heckles starts to complain about the noise (although in the flash back episode when Phoebe is still living with Monica it seems apparent that they actually know Mr Heckles, which Phoebe shows no sign of when she and Rachel are looking for the owner of the cat).]

Mistake Revealing: When Phoebe says something like, "Look, the last candle is about to go out", she starts counting down, saying "-47,-48..." and you can see Monica looking at the candle. But there is a light source behind her (it can't be a candle because she is looking at the last candle).

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Joey is standing with candelight over Ross' neck, the candle is full length, but in the next shot it's only half length.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of the episode when Chandler watches Jill leave the bank, his face is pressed up against the centre of the glass door. In the next shot his face is leaning on the metal edge around the glass.

Mistake Continuity: After the light come back on and Ross is holding his heart after he sees Rachel kissing Paulo, in the next shot when Joey starts speaking to him his hand is by his side.

Mistake Continuity: At the end of the episode, as Chandler turns to the security camera, he is stood right next to the door. In the next shot he has jumped about 2 feet away from the door instantly.

Mistake Revealing: When Rachel first meets Paolo she's looking for the cat in candlelight, holding the candle in front of her. You can see her shadow on the wall, as well as the shadow of the candle, revealing that the light is not coming from the candle.

Mistake Continuity: At the start of the scene where the group disclose the weirdest place they've had sex is, Monica has her hands together on her lap. In the next shot, they are underneath her legs.
