Fun Facts about Friends
《六人行》的豆知识
1.A few months before the first episode aired, the pilot was shown
to a test audience, who were less than impressed, scoring it a
mere 41 out of 100 and classifying it was "week".(译按:应为
"weak")
《六人行》第一季第一集公开播映之前几个月曾先试映,然而当时观众反应
并不热烈,平均评分只有41分,还被归类为「剧情贫弱」。
2.Lisa Kudrow played Ursula in the 11th episode of the sitcom "Mad
About You" way back in 1992. That was a whole two years before
the first episode of Friends.
丽莎库卓(Lisa Kudrow)早在1992年就在喜剧影集《为你疯狂》(Mad
About You)中客串饰演乌苏拉布菲(Ursula Buffay),比《六人行》早了
整整两年。(译按:和《六人行》一样,《为你疯狂》中的乌苏拉也是常常
忘记客人餐点的服务生!)
3.In early episodes of the sitcom, Joey and Chandler lived in
apartment 4, while Monica and Rachel lived in apartment 5. This
was later seen as a problem since 4 and 5 would typically be
ground floor apartments and it was known they lived several
stories up. In later episodes their apartment numbers were
changed to 19 and 20 respectfully.
Joey和Chandler原本住在四号,Monica和Rachel住在五号,但後来发现四
号和五号通常是在公寓的一楼,与剧情有出入,因此Joey和Chandler的房
间改成19号,Monica和Rachel的改成20号。(有人确切知道是在第几季的
时候改的吗?)
4.Before airing, the sitcom went through several title changes
before settling on the simple "Friends". Possible titles included
Friends Like These, Six of One, Across the Hall, Friends Like Us,
and Insomnia Cafe.
正式播映之前,剧名历经好几次更动,候选剧名有《Friends Like These》
、《Six of One》、《Across the Hall》、《Friends Like Us》和
《Insomnia Cafe》,最後才定案为《Friends》。
5.The very first episode was originally titled just "The Pilot",
but because every other episode began with the words "The One..."
it was later renamed to "The one where it all began". There was
however, one exception to the naming convention, and that was the
final episode which was aptly named "The Last One".
第一季第一集的剧名原本只有简单的「试播集」,但因为《六人行》其他
集的剧名都以"The One..."开头,所以後来改成"The one where it all
began"。整整十季中这种剧名惯例只有一次例外,就是完结篇那一集,叫
做"The Last One"
(译按:「试播集」在英文中叫做pilot,用来让电视公司评估这个影集能
否卖座、是否要正式发行,如果影集成功登上电视萤幕,试播集通常就是
影集的第一集。)
6.Gunther actor James Michael Tyler was a mere extra in the first
season. He earned his re-occurring role, because he was the only
one who could work the cappuccino machine. He wasn't even given
a name until season two.
饰演Gunther的演员詹姆斯麦可泰勒(James Michael Tyler)在第一季时
只是临时演员,但因为他是剧组中唯一会操作咖啡机的演员,因此争取到
这个角色。直到第二季他的名字才正式出现。
(题外话:我觉得Gunther的声音好有磁性)
7.The full names of the characters are...
六位主角的全名
Ross Eustace Geller
Chandler Muriel Bing
Joseph Francis Tribbiani Jr
Rachel Karen Green
Monica E. Geller (we never learn what the E stands for)
(剧中从来没有提到E到底是什麽的简写)
Phoebe Buffay (She never knew her middle name)
(Phoebe自己也不知道她的中间名是什麽)
(我超喜欢这句XD
Chandler: Handle is my middle name. Actually, it’s the middle
part of my first name.)
8.For a joke, in the opening episode of season 6, "The One After
Vegas", all the opening credits had the names changed to include
Arquette at the end. This was because after finishing season 5,
Courteney Cox married David Arquette and became Courteney Cox
Arquette.
因为第五季结束之後,柯特妮考克斯(Courteney Cox)与大卫阿奎特
(David Arquette)共结连理,冠上夫姓。为表祝福,第六季第一集「拉
斯维加斯之後」("The One After Vegas")片头曲时,所有演员也都冠
上阿奎特的姓。
9.In an act of life mirroring fiction, the coffee house "Central
Perk" became a reality in 2006 when Mojtaba Asadian, a
businessman from Iran registered the name to use on a new
franchise of coffee shops. The first of which was officially
opened by James Michael Tyler (Gunther) in Dubai.
剧中的中央咖啡馆在现实中成真了!2006年伊朗的阿沙迪恩(Mojtaba
Asadian)为他的咖啡连锁店注册了这个名字,第一家连锁店在杜拜开幕时
还邀请了詹姆斯麦可泰勒(Gunther的演员)来到现场。
10.Over 51 million people watched the first airing of the final
episode in the US. That made it the 4th most watched series
finale, behind three other sitcoms MASH, Cheers and Seinfeld.
《六人行》完结篇在美国首播时有超过五千一百万人共同观赏,是全美收
视第四多的影集完结篇,仅次於《外科医师》(MASH,1972-1983)、《欢
乐酒店》(Cheers,1982-1993)和《欢乐单身派对》(Seinfeld,1989-1998)
