Friends’
response to 9/11
“On
the TV series Friends,
in episode 8x03 ("The One Where
Rachel Tells..."), Chandler and Monica could not get on their
flight for their honeymoon because Chandler joked about bombing in the airport.
After the attacks, the story was rewritten and re-shot.” This shows that they
were seeing and responding to major events and changes in American society at
the time – to the point where they re-wrote and shot a large part of an
episode. This could suggest that it is highly likely that it has been more
subtly impacted by other events and changes – such as the place of women in
society.
