Line 44:
** Courteney Cox originally auditioned for the part of Rachel.
** James Michael Tyler was supposed to be just another extra on the set. However, he was recruited to be a recurring character in the coffeehouse because he was the only extra who knew how to operate a cappuccino machine.
** Joey and Monica were originally supposed to be the main couple focused on over the course of series rather than Ross and Rachel. A couple of episodes seem to have a few nods to this, such as Joey mistakenly thinking that Monica is flirting with him in "The One with the Flashback", and Monica revealing that she'd originally wanted to have sex with Joey right before getting together with Chandler in "The One with the Truth About London". There are also a few hints of this in "The Pilot", as Monica and Joey quibble with each other quite a bit more than they would during the remainder of the series.
** The producers supposedly approached [[REM]], then [[They Might Be Giants]], to perform the show's (already written) theme tune "I'll Be There For You". The Rembrandts were their third choice.
** The main relationship was not going to be Ross and Rachel, but instead Joey and Monica.
