Trivia
Debbie Mazar was actually pregnant during this episode.

Goofs
In The One with the Cheap Dress, Monica says that her wedding is on May 15th - which means that Rachel got pregnant in April, because she is about 5 to 6 weeks along at the time of the wedding, so she should give birth in January or early February. But she gives birth when it is hot outside, because she is complaining before she goes to the hospital how hot it is. She is pregnant for almost a full year.

Quotes
Judy Geller: [Judy is pressuring Ross to marry Rachel] This isn't just some girl you picked up in a bar and... humped. A child should have a family.
Dr. Ross Geller: Mom, you know what? I can't deal with this right now. I'm sorry...
Judy Geller: Just think about it. If you don't, I'll talk more about humping.

Typical later season episode

I know where the laugh is supposed to be...it just ain't funny. I don't know why the audience is laughing that hard...I mean, other than they "have to".

I was much younger and and not terribly aware of what happens to sitcoms in later seasons. I think this was the first show that I had started watching that I got to see it from interesting new show...to really really good in first few years...to wait, why isn't it as funny as it once was? I tended to see this pattern repeat with so many shows...Frasier, Wings, It's Always Sunny, Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, The Office, etc etc.

Typical junk food filler show. Not the best meal you'll ever have...but hey...we have to eat SOMETHING.
