    June Gable, who plays the nurse in "The One with the Birth," is the same woman who has the recurring role of Estelle Leonard, Joey's agent. As the series aired in 1994-95, the character had not been shown yet; perhaps the writers gave her the part due to Estelle being chopped out of episode 6.

    This is very clearly listed under the particular episode. Always check the episode guide first, as it supplies great information.

    In TOW The Late Thanksgiving when Ross says: 'Come in my butt is surprisingly hairy!'
    Is he talking about Monica or Chandler??

    And in TOW The Fertility Test: I dont get what this means?
    Charlie: First, I have to see the Met!
    Joey: Okay, let me stop you right there, the Mets suck. You wanna see the Yankees!
    Charlie: No not the Mets, the Met..singular.
    Joey: Which one, they all suck!
    Charlie: The museum.
    Joey: I don't think so.

    In TOW The Late Thanksgiving you missed the first part of the quote...
    Ross : Wha...? Oh sure, now they lock it, but when they're having sex on the couch, its like: "Come on in, my butt is surprisingly hairy".
    and hes talking about walking in on Monica and Chandler and one of them has a hairy butt

    In TOW The Fertility Test Charlie wants to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art but Joey thinks that she is talking about the baseball team the New York Mets. Did that help?

    Maybe I'm not explaining properly. 1) I saw the first part, but it was implied that one of them had the hairy butt, but I didnt get which of the two
    2) Why does Joey say: 'I dont think so'

    I don't know why Joey says "I don't think so," he was just confused as normal...He thought Charlie was confused.

    The butt thing--it could have been Monica or Chandler.

    The commentary says exactly when they stopped taping with the audience....I don't totally remember...but I think it was before we found out Monica wasn't the one pregnant. SO, the audience would have thought that Monica was pregnant when they went home from the taping.

    It was just a rumor. It is not going to happen.

    I was wondering if anyone knew the song that was played in the background for the commercial for Phoebe's wedding episode (I'm not talking about he Beatle song either I'm pretty sure it was released around the same time the episode aired). I also think they played it at the end of the episode. If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm not sure about the commercial, but the only songs used in the episode were:

    "Can't Help Falling in Love" by George Weiss, Hugo Peretti, and Luigi Creatore. It was sang by Elvis Presley in the movie Blue Hawaii.

    and "Here, There, Everywhere" by Paul McCartney, recorded by The Beatles.

    I would think Chandler, since women rarely have even remotely hairy butts

    In the opening credit sequence during one of the earlier seasons, there is a clip of Chandler jumping into Joey's arms. This clip was never used in an episode. The productions staff didn't want it to go to waste so it was used in the credits. Does anyone know what episode it was cut from?
