The One With The Embryos - S4-E12
Continuity mistake: When the friends are talking about the contest to prove who knows each other better, Monica says to Joey "Are you scared?" and Rachel has her arms crossed. Joey says "No" and in the next shot of Rachel she is crossing them again. (00:05:00)
The One With Joey's Porsche - S6-E5
Factual error: Phoebe discovers that one of the babies has wandered away, and finds the baby inside the open drawer. Yeah, no. These babies aren't even walking yet, much less are they able to lift themselves up past the height of their own bodies and launch themselves into a drawer.
The One With Phoebe's Birthday Dinner - S9-E5
Factual error: The restaurant refuses to take anyone's orders until they're all seated, which means that the group is sitting, occupying a table, without earning any revenue for the restaurant. There isn't a restaurant in NYC that would have such a policy, since it basically guarantees that a table becomes a revenue vacuum. (It also makes for very unhappy customers, but that doesn't qualify it as a factual error, since some restaurants might be actually stupid enough to not care about their return customers).
The One Where Joey Speaks French - S10-E13
Other mistake: When Chandler, Monica and Erika arrive back at the apartment after sightseeing, Chandler enters the apartment from the left (past where their apartment door is) rather than from the right, as if he came up the stairs. He obviously is entering from the stage and didn't take the time or cue to appear to enter from the direction of the stairs.
The One With Joey's Porsche - S6-E5
Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Phoebe knocks over the vase, after she says, "Well, that's just the way things go" and turns around to face the babies again, you can see a crew member coming out of Rachel's room. When Phoebe starts looking for the missing baby, the shadow of the crew member is visible on the right of the screen as the baby is placed in the drawer. (00:15:30)
The One With Joey's Big Break - S5-E22
Audio problem: At the very end when Ross hits Rachel's stomach twice the sound doesn't match his actions. (00:21:00)
The One With The Rumor - S8-E9
Continuity mistake: After Will has arrived and Chandler says, "I'm watching the game but I'm not deaf," you can see Will in the background with his hands on his hips. When the camera switches to just Will and Monica, Will suddenly has two wine glasses in his hands. (00:06:20)
The One With The Stripper - S8-E8
Continuity mistake: At the end of this episode, before the credits, Monica is giving a striptease for Chandler. Notice how the crown on his head changes position. Look at the coloured circles on this crown. (00:19:10)
The One In Barbados, part 2 - S9-E24
Character mistake: When Monica and Mike are playing table tennis, Monica puts her hand on the table and looses the point. Mike then does the same thing. Surely Monica, of all people would notice that as it would have given her the point. We also see her looking at Mike at the time. (00:33:40 - 00:39:25)
The One Where Estelle Dies - S10-E15
Revealing mistake: When Chandler and Monica are at the door of the house you can see that it is a fake background behind Chandler. (00:09:35)
The One with Two Parts: Part 1 - S1-E16
Continuity mistake: When Chandler is playing with the toy in his office, his right hand moves between shots. (00:09:35)
The One Where Chandler Doesn't Like Dogs - S7-E8
Deliberate mistake: Monica sees the dog on her settee from Ross's apartment, which wouldn't be possible from the angle as Ross's place is lower than Monica's. (00:04:50)
The One Where Rosita Dies - S7-E13
Continuity mistake: In this episode we seemingly understand why Ross and Monica's parents favor Ross. In one scene at Monica's apartment Ross says that it is because their parents thought Judy was barren. This would make sense except that in TOW Rachel's Book, Jack and Judy tell Monica and Chandler that they had to get married because Judy was pregnant. Judy was using a diaphragm as birth control and Jack's dog ate it. It doesn't make sense that Judy would use a diaphragm if she thought she was barren. This was not news to Monica since she said she had heard the story about the dog eating her mother's diaphragm at her 5th grade Halloween party. (00:04:15)
The One Where Estelle Dies - S10-E15
Continuity mistake: The second time Ross visits Mr. Zelner, he hands him a pterodactyl egg replica. The hole in the egg switches between the top or bottom, depending on the shot. (00:14:40)
The One With The Flashback - S3-E6
Continuity mistake: Phoebe and Ross are in the soon to be closed bar sitting on the pool table. He clears it of everything, but a few seconds later he stops making out because the "damn balls are in the way" and somehow magics up a handful of snooker balls. If you look closely when he's clearing the table, there are two dark balls at the side which he studiously ignores, and which Lisa Kudrow then surreptitiously grabs and takes onto the table with her so David Schwimmer can grab them later. (00:19:35)
The One With The Lottery - S9-E18
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Joey and Phoebe are holding the lucky bone, which they have to break and make a wish, look at Joey's thumb; the location of it changes between shots. (00:05:40)
The One With All The Kissing - S5-E2
Continuity mistake: When Phoebe says she is going to "pack her ass off" she walks toward the coffee house door, and they cut to a quick shot of Joey then back to the wide shot with the door, and Phoebe has disappeared. She did not have time to make it to the door and out. (Widescreen version). (00:15:50)
The One With The Jellyfish - S4-E1
Continuity mistake: Phoebe and her mother are in her mother's house at the beach. Phoebe has just found out that Phoebe senior is her real mother. Have a look at Phoebe's mother in this episode and the last episode of series 3 (The One At The Beach). Her hair is a lot shorter in series 4 even though no time has passed in the storyline. (00:03:35)
Continuity mistake: When Monica tells Joey and Ross she is not pregnant, her hand goes to her chest, then down to her side, and then back to her chest. (00:02:10)
The One With The Truth About London - S7-E16
Continuity mistake: In the flashback to London, the dress Monica is wearing is not the same one that she is wearing in the original episode, TOW Ross's wedding, although one can see that they tried to make it look similar. (00:16:20)
Answer: Usually by the seventh night of Hanukkah you don't know what to get the other person, and you will probably resort to getting the other person something insignificant. Chandler is basically saying that the pen is a stupid gift.
