Privacy NoticeFriends may have aired its final episode two decades ago, but the iconic sitcom still holds a special place in fans’ hearts. The show, which ran from 1994 to 2004, spanned ten seasons and a whopping 236 episodes, earning its place as one of the most beloved US sitcoms in TV history. However, it wasn’t without its hiccups. Eagle-eyed viewers have spotted several ‘major inconsistencies’ throughout the series, with some mistakes recurring across multiple episodes. One social media user, known as @eugeneTV, has highlighted three blunders that have left fans gobsmacked. Door Numbers First up is the fluctuating door numbers. Initially, the numbers were low, but when it was pointed out that this didn’t make sense for characters living on an upper floor, they were adjusted.

In a TikTok video that’s racked up more than 300 likes, the bloke explains: “The same apartments are seen throughout the series, but the numbers seem to change back and forth, even though the friends never change apartments.” “At the beginning, Monica’s apartment is five and Chandler’s (Matthew Perry) is four.

Another gaffe relates to the ever-changing view from Monica and Rachel’s (Courtney Cox and Jennifer Aniston) apartment window. Fans noticed that the scenery outside their window would inexplicably switch from a brick wall to a cityscape.

And since they never moved, this just doesn’t make any sense.” No Ben?

The One With Ross’s Wedding aired in season 4, episodes 23 and 24, where Ross (David Schwimmer) married posh Brit Emily (Helen Baxendale) get married in London. Apparently: “Everyone except for a very pregnant Phoebe was present for the wedding” – apart from his son Ben, from his first marriage with Carol. Fans had theories about why this happened. “Some fans believe that this is due to losing visitation rights, many others believe that this was just a mistake on the writer’s part,” the Friends fan claimed. TikTok users were left stunned by the errors as they took to the comments to give their opinion. One user said: “If these are the biggest inconsistencies then it is clear how good the show was,” while another added: “Carol didn’t go. She probably didn’t want Ben to go alone. Ross would’ve been too busy to entertain him. Chandler was too busy boning Monica. And Joey…?”Story SavedYou can find this story in  My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
