I love E7. I know Ross is coming a little strong with Rachel but I just find him adorable and funny (him mimicking Paolo always cracks me up 😂). And this is when Matthew Perry really got to shine with his comedic skills, especially since half of his lines are just him talking to himself. Someone made a video of Chandler's scenes without his thoughts to show how it could have easily become a psycho thriller (added with dark & gloomy lighting, music and zoom-ins which makes it even more creepy). Here: https://youtu.be/4OA-P_OkGO0?si=zj_53AGoTTwei1ys 🤣 Btw, Phoebe's full time job is a masseuse. Some people find the Nana storyline a bit weird because it's sad yet they're making jokes about it I like how they can make it funny without making fun of the situation, if you know what I mean. Judy, Monica and Ross's mum, is hilarious as a character but absolutely horrible to Monica. The fact that her mother was the same way yet she can't see that's exactly how she is with her own daughter is... It did seem like she kinda realised it at the end though. And I never got the gay vibe from Chandler either but for the time it isn't that offensive and even tasteful (though a little stereotypical). Fun facts: The blackout is the result of an event seen in the Mad About You episode "Pandora's Box" which starred Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe's twin sister Ursula. This is many of the cast members' favourite episode (particularly Matthew Perry). And old corded landline phones get its power through the phone lines so they are likely to work in a blackout. Paolo's lines translate into the following - When he introduces himself to the guys: "Hi guys, I just moved in and I live in the floor below this so I'll guess we'll see quite a lot of each other." When Rachel introduces Paolo to Phoebe: "Phoebe, you're gorgeous too! If you're all this beautiful I'll move right here!" When flirting with Rachel: "Look at the moon, look at the stars, look at everything that's beautiful." But I am not fluent in Italian and I just saw this online so please correct me if I'm wrong. Cosimo Fusco (Paolo) improvised almost every one of his lines as the directors told him to say whatever he wanted. It speaks to the actor's professionalism that he only said lines that were relevant to the situation. Also, apparently, what Joey mumbles to Chandler is "See if you can tell what kind of underwear she wears." 😂 Jill Goodacre WAS one of Victoria's Secret main models in the 80s and early 90s. She is married to singer and actor Harry Connick Jr. Another idea for the name of the coffeehouse was "Java Joe's", which was on the picture of Nana and her friends. Along with E2, David Schwimmer received his only Emmy nomination of the series for E7. Interesting fact: What happened to Nana is called Lazarus syndrome which is extremely rare but well-documented. There are a variety of reasons a human could medically die but spontaneously return to life. While some patients recover, it's also very common (like in the case of Nana) for the patients to experience a second and final death within hours, days or weeks. Goof? The Hanukkah menorah Joey brings in E7 only has 7 candles, but IRL it actually has 9. However, Joey is not Jewish so he wouldn't know the difference between the two.
