In season 4 of Friends, Monica got stung by a jellyfish, Ross, as well as playing rugby to impress his British girlfriend Emily, picks up his keyboard again and Chandler felt so guilty about kissing Kathy that he lived in a box until Joey forgave him. Season 4 first aired in 1997 and, like all TV shows, has its own share of continuity errors if you look close enough.
The current plans for a reunion have been put on hold, but until then, let's take a look back at 10 continuity errors you may have missed the first time around.
10 Chandler's Hair
In the finale of season 3, 'The One At The Beach', Chandler's hair is very short and dark brown while he and Joey are talking to Ross to help him with his relationship problems involving Rachel and Bonnie.
However, in the first episode of season 4, 'The One With The Jellyfish', despite taking place straight after the season 3 finale, Chandler's hair is much longer and slightly lighter. It would not have been able to grow this much in the amount of time between the events of the Season 3 finale and the Season 4 premiere.
9 Chandler's Cuffs
In episode 3, 'The One With The Cuffs', Chandler is dating Rachel's boss Joanna, and to stop him from leaving her office, she handcuffs him to her chair. When Rachel finds him, she lets him go but then re-cuffs him to the filing cabinet when she realizes that Joanna will know that it was Rachel who let him go.
When Chandler and Rachel are arguing about Chandler's freedom he has one hand pointing at Rachel and one hand free. In the next shot, Chandler goes to open the office door but has to drop the pants that he is holding to do so, but he wasn't holding any, to begin with.
8 Dirty Girl
In episode 6 'The One With The Dirty Girl', Ross is horrified to find out that his date, Cheryl, lives in the messiest apartment he has ever been in, with old clothes and food filling the room. While Ross and Cheryl are kissing in her apartment Ross manages to cover his left hand on chocolate sauce that's on one of her jackets.
However, in the very next scene, Ross's hand is completely clean despite hardly being able to wipe his hand on anything. Ross goes on to kill a rat that is crawling around inside an open crisp packet on her table.
7 Phoebe's Guitar
In episode 7, 'The One Where Chandler Crosses The Line', fans first heard of Ross's "sound" as he reveals that he used to play the keyboard in college. Ross, Monica, and Phoebe are sitting in Monica's apartment where Phoebe persuades Ross to go and get his keyboard to showcase his talents.
In the first part of the conversation, Phoebe is sitting with her guitar on her lap, in the next scene when she says "play that funky music white boy", she has no guitar, then when Ross gets up to go and get his keyboard, we can see Phoebe sitting with her guitar again.
6 Edge Of The Set Part 1
In episode 8, 'The One With Chandler In A Box', Chandler, after kissing Joey's girlfriend Kathy, decides to show Joey how much their friendship means to him by sitting in a small closed box and is told not to talk.
When Kathy sees that her involvement is tearing Joey and Chandler apart she goes to Monica's to end it with Chandler. The camera switches between Monica and Kathy and every time the camera is on Kathy, the edge of the set is visible to the right side of Rachel's bedroom.
5 Ross's Cookies
In episode 12 'The One With The Embryos', the gang is in Monica's apartment and Chandler and Joey bet $10 that they can predict what Monica and Rachel have in their shopping bag. Just before this, Ross can be seen eating cookies and after taking a bite, tells everyone that they do not taste nice.
In one shot he puts the half-eaten cookie back in the box and in the very next shot, he can be seen putting the cookie back in the box a second time.
4 Charlton Heston
In episode 14, 'The One With Joey's Dirty Day', Joey arrives on the set of his movie with Charlton Heston without showering so he breaks into Heston's dressing room to take a shower. When Heston confronts him, he misunderstands Joey and says that every actor in their lifetime thinks they "stink". Regardless, Heston makes it clear that Joey should never break into his dressing room and points towards Joey's face.
In one shot, Heston is using his left hand, his rand hand in the next shot, then back to his left hand in the last shot.
3 Rachel & Monica Hugging
In episode 19, 'The One With All The Haste', after they lost their apartment to Joey and Chandler in a bet, Rachel and Monica try to win their apartment back from them by taking part in Phoebe's version of a quiz.
They gain five points by saying Monica's favorite thing about trees and they hug in celebration in one shot, then in the following shot, from a slightly different angle, you can see them reacting and hugging again.
2 Writing On The Wall
In episode 20, 'The One With All The Wedding Dresses', Monica tries on Emily's wedding dress which sparks her obsession with marriage. In once scene, Rachel is in Joey and Chandler's apartment telling them how she doesn't think Ross and Emily will go through with the marriage.
On the customizable board in Joey and Chandler's apartment at the beginning of this scene, the words "get out" are written, however, in the very next shot the word "poop" is written on the board despite no one changing it.
1 Edge of the set Part 2
In episode 22, 'The One With The Worst Best Man Ever', Joey accuses a hooker he sleeps with of stealing Ross' engagement ring. Later in the episode, they discover the duck has swallowed the ring and take it to the vet to get it removed.
While Joey is reminiscing over his and Chandler's time with the duck there is shot with Chandler sitting in the boat and the duck swimming in a bucket of water. When the duck is visible, the edge of the set and a member of the crew can easily be seen to the right side of the duck.
