Through the course of a 10-year run, Friends has given uncountable moments to its fans. Be it Ross’ list, or Joey’s not sharing food moments, if fans started to make a list, it would go longer. But the beautiful thing about the show is that it also has amazingly great behind-the-scenes stories. One such story is about how an actor’s ignorance made him do something crazy involving Joey, Rachel, and Ross. And no, it is not at all about Joey’s feelings for Rachel.

The amount of fun fans feel while watching the show on the screen will be nothing after knowing about Matt LeBlanc’s distraction. Behind the scenes, there came a moment where the actor’s ignorance gave the viewers one of the most memorable scenes.

Which Friends scene was created by Matt LeBlanc’s distraction?

How much do you trust in Rachel’s cooking skills? Because of almost every Thanksgiving, Monica used to cook dinner for her friends and family. But there was one time she let Rachel cook the desert, English Trifle in season 6, episode 9. The Man With A Plan actor once appeared on The Graham Norton Show where he gave insights about the scene. As he shared, when they were filming the scene, Schwimmer had a huge chunk of trifle in his mouth.

As the director said, “cut“, Schwimmer threw it out on his plate. Interestingly, LeBlanc was not aware of what David did. And as they retook the shot, he took the desert off of Ross’ plate. While it tasted “like feet” to Ross, Joey found the desert “good“. The actual funny moment was that no one told anything to LeBlanc as they filmed the shot once again.

Afterward, when they watched the bloopers, the Top Gear actor got to know what had really happened. Unfortunately, by then it was way too late and there was nothing he could do, except for forgetting it ever happened. While this mistake of the actor created the funniest moment for the show, there was a plot line all these actors hated.

Which story did Matt LeBlanc, Jennifer Aniston, and David Schwimmer hate?

The sitcom gave the world some nicest love stories. However, at one point of time in the show, Joey starts to develop feelings for Rachel. Fortunately, they remained friends while Rachel and Ross ended up together. But did you know, Matt LeBlanc was not happy with his character ending up with Rachel, as revealed by David Crane in an interview with Vanity Fair?

As per Crane, LeBlanc clearly said, “It’s wrong. It’s like I want to be with my sister.” Though Crane agreed to what he said, yet he pushed the actors, including Aniston, to go ahead with the arc as they could not just “keep spinning the same plates.” Even fans of the show felt the same about this arc and believed Joey would not have dated Rachel because of his friendship with Ross. While the world is still swooning over the best Ross-Rachel moments, it also adores the bond between Joey and Rachel.

Watching the show with these behind-the-scenes moments makes it more amusing. What are your feelings about it? How did you feel about LeBlanc eating Schwimmer’s Trifle the way he did? Tell us in the comments below.
