1. David Schwimmer directed 10 episodes of friends (he's also a director, he's directed many other tv shows as well) these are:
the one on the last night (the one where Chandler and Monica move in together) S06E06 1999
the one with Rachel's assistant (the one where Rachel has a crush on tag) S07E04 2000
the one with ross's library book (the one where ross writes a book and he guards the paleontology section) S07E07 2000
the one with all the candy (the one where all the neighbors love Monica's holiday candy) S07E09 2000
the one with the truth about London (the one where chandler finds out Monica actually wanted joey) S07E016 2000
the one with the red sweater (the one where everyone finds out the father of Rachel's baby) S08E02 2001
the one where joey dates Rachel (the one where Joey and Rachel try to date) S08E012 2001
the one with the stripper (the one where chandler finds out Monica had a secret bachelorette party) S08E08 2001
the one with Pheobe's birthday dinner (the one where pheobe is having dinner with her friends to celebrate her birthday but everyone is late due to a series of events) S09E05 2003
2. courtney cox was the only one of the six friends who hasnt received an emmy award, i find this completely absurd. courtney has done such an amazing job playing monica. but she did find get a golden globe nomination for "cougar town which probably made her feel better. i mean i don't understand why, she CAN act, she's a great actor. she's done an amazing job in emotional scenes. she really did deserve more. but nevertheless, she has been nominated for an emmy in 2021 after the friends reunion, and the reunion itself has been nominated for 14 emmys. 
3. ross was 29 for 3 seasons, apparently ross says he's 29 is season three, four and five Well, that isn’t possible because we have seen 3 Christmas & Thanksgiving celebrations in these seasons, then how come Ross didn’t grow up? and there's another thing, ross doesnt have a single birthday date. when ross was in a conversation with gunther he says that his birthday was somewhere in december, but when in a conversation with joey he says his birthday is on october 18th
4. courtney's pregnancy was hidden in season 10 of friends, courtney gave birth in 2004 (when friends was still going on) but they couldnt write it into the show because monica couldnt have kids, she wore baggy clothes and coverd up. i read in a book that courtney was actuallty pregnant through season 10 but she didnt look pregnant in the show. but then i also saw pictures of her and jen sitting on the freinds couch. in which i could see the baby bump. (that and i watched a youtube video: https://youtu.be/XHQdfwcfCt4
and courtney and david were really trying to have a baby. and she has had 7 miscarriages, and i have got to say she is a storng and wonderful woman. she also had a miscarraige the day rachel gave birth to emma. and she was happy in the episode. but in reality she was very sad. but she pulled it together and did a wonderful job, i couldnt even tell she was sad, not even a little bit. and this is truly one of the things that proves courtney as an amazing actor.
5. lisa kudrow didnt knwo how to play guitar and she hated playing it. so after a few lessons she gave up learning and then smelly cat was born, which is an amazing song by the way. lisa was good though and the way she plays her guitar is really good. but hearing that lisa didnt like playing guitar definetly surprised me, because i always thought lisa was the one who was like her character among everyone the most but turns out she's the least like her character! and lisa liked the character rachel played by jennifer aniston
6. friends was filmed in front of a live audience (exept for cliffhangers) its like to see if the jokes and the material and storyline works. and do you guys remember the laughs in funny scenes, well some of them were real! not all of them are from live audience because well, honestly (before im about to say this remeber I LOVE FRIENDS) not all of friends jokes are funny, some of them are kind of funny and some arent and some are completely hilarious, and the other thing is that, in friends there's a joke every 2 minutes, and youre tired of laughing from a completely hilarious joke and when a kind of funny joke comes on, you just cant laugh
7. many people, including lisa kudrow thought chandler was gay, Kudrow said that she was surprised to hear Perry’s interpretation of Chandler at the first table read because when she first read the script, she thought Chandler was supposed to be gay. and she wasnt the only one, many fans thought chandler was gay and i thought chandler was gay too! but in 1997 david crane told entertainment weekly that he wasnt gay.
8. at the 10th season everyone in the friends cast were receiving 1 million dollars, and they were the first tv cast to negotiate as a group, during the first season each cast member were receiving 22,000 dollars During the first season, each cast member was receiving around $22,000 per episode. But by the second season, each actor had a slightly different salary. In 1997, all six cast members refused to work until they all earned an equal salary of $100,000 per episode. This was big news. “Stars of hit shows often threaten to boycott their series in pursuit of higher salaries," The New York Times reported.
9. Ursula was also a character on a tv show called "mad about you" when she was cast on friends, accoring to lisa it was the producers of friends who decided to adress this and say they're twin sisters. she went on to play ursula in eight episdoes of friends as well, and the one thing that i cant beleive is that, i can't beleive mad about you let lisa play ursula in friends too. i thought this was illegal. and i guess most of you might agree, urssula migtht be the worst character on friends.
10. the apartment numbers changed during the series, monica's door had the number 5 on it but the producers realised that it didnt make any sense because monica and chandler live on the 3rd floor and it was later it was changed to 20, chandler's apartment was also chnged from 4 to 19, i notcied the number on monica's door before they changed it and thought it didnt make any sense. but then later i saw that it was changed to 20.
anyway thats it for this blog! i hope you guys liked it, i loved writing it. and comment down below if you guys want a part 3. and also comment down below what you guys think about friends, and i'll see you guys in the next one ciao!
