Article title

"The Last One" points to the TV series episode(s).

What many don't realize is that a sw product by the same name existed (see: http://www.presshere.com/html/pw8102.htm). I'd like to introduce a disambigution page and create an entry for the softare product, but I am not sure how to name/rename the pages.

"The_Last_One_(SW)" for the software program? What about the original one?

Thanks for input, I am not very experienced about this kind of decisions...

I totally agree. I am also unsure how your proposed structuring is done here in Wikipedia. BTW, another, perhaps better reference to The Last One (Software), is to the consultancy that originated it: http://www.tloconsultants.com/index.htm. --24.17.215.45 07:02, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

17/18 or 19/20?

On this page and the Season 10 template it counts what seem to be two clip compilations (rather than flashback episodes) as 17 & 18 but on both List of Friends episodes and the UK DVDs The Last One is listed as episodes 17 & 18, with no sign of these clip compilations. Which is correct? Timrollpickering 22:01, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ATHF!

there is also an episode of "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" with the same name, the final ep of the 2nd season ( http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/List_of_Aqua_Teen_Hunger_Force_episodes#Season_2:_2003 ). Elitist "Friends" fans, take note!

Anyone Does anyone know where tofind video of the special "The one before the last one?" It was a special that only aired once. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.169.179.158 (talk) 16:44, August 29, 2007 (UTC)

Don't add up

the number of viewers tuning in is different than the number on the main page of Friends--Baitt (talk) 00:09, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Joey's comment about purple wall

I removed it from the continuity errors. Come on, people -- Joey isn't the brightest person in the world. Even if Rachel had mentioned that the walls were purple, Joey could have forgotten or spaced out when she said it. A continuity error would be Joey making a point about the walls being purple and then later not knowing. As IMDB would put it: "Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers)". -- Jwinters | Talk 05:38, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I took this out in my last edit to this article:

Two different statements

The introduction in the article says: "Most scenes were filmed with a live studio audience, but the key scenes of the episode were filmed without an audience in order to avoid leaks of plot spoilers, and the cast were all sworn to secrecy."; But, in the Filming section, it's stated that "Although it was planned that some key scenes of the episode would be filmed without an audience in order to avoid leaks of plot spoilers, the producers decided not to worry about the issue and filmed it all in front of the live studio audience".

I just wanted to point this out, I did not correct it since I don't know which one's right. Hope someone who has the accurate info can correct.
