Joey buying only the V volume of the encyclopedia

This, on the other hand, is a more realistic depiction of Joey's relative lack of intelligence compared to the other friends and the frustration it causes him. It also subtly shows that Joey has a great knack for memorization (he IS an actor after all) because he's able to recall vivisection and the vas deferens like it's nothing. Perhaps my favorite exchange between Joey and Penn Gillette's character is when he asks Joey if he's ever had a hard time following a conversation, and it goes through a montage of him feeling left out of a conversation. Then it cuts back and Penn's character says, "You haven't said anything for about two minutes," indicating that Joey was recalling those memories in real time, which is great.

Ross without the laugh track

It was kind of wild to witness the slow demise of the laugh track in sitcoms (are there any sitcoms that still use them?), but they honestly never bothered me. I guess it's just because I grew up with them and got used to them. I think people try to use these "sitcoms without the laugh track" videos to "prove" that something isn't actually funny, but I feel like the Friends examples actually hold up fine without it.

The plot to Shutter Speed

I didn't even realize the movie Joey went to Las Vegas to shoot actually had a name until I had to look up what Shutter Speed was. I also learned that the wrestler Sting starred in a movie called Shutter Speed with Daisy Fuentes, and it sadly isn't the same as the plot of the Friends version, which reads like an episode of "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" instead of an actual movie. Of course, we don't get any follow-up to what happens after Joey's character finds out that Betsy's been dead for ten years, which is a shame.
