I Noticed Something In "The Best Laid Plans"... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

If you watch carefully, you'll notice that during the scene where Chrissy goes to wake Jack up after he spent the night sleeping on the couch, he starts to move his right leg, but says that it has fallen asleep. However, the leg that he bangs against the table, then begins to massage is his left leg.

I thought that was kind of funny. Maybe John forgot which leg he started out using, lol. They could've done that scene in several takes and he forgot which one he started out with, so he just picked one and ran with it.

Just an observation, lol.

Hey, he's only human, just like everyone else. Also, I noticed in the episode of ' The Fast' , why is it that 'Janet' didn't bet with 'Jack' herself to see if she had more willpower than him. Why did she volenteer 'Chrissy' automatically? To me, that just goes to show you that 'Janet' didn't have any willpower at all herself.
Also, I noticed that in the episode of ' Jack's Double date' where he had to go with Mr. Furley to the Regal Beagel, when he said to the girls, 'Care to make a little roomate wager'? He said it as 'woommate' if you listen closely you can hear it. It's rather funny.

I noticed that as well. When I first noticed it, I thought that I wasn't paying attention and that I was thinking wrong, but now that you're pointing it out, I realize that I was indeed correct.

Jack and Janet's bet in "The Fast" was always something that would bother me whenever I watched the episode. I made a thread about this a while back, and PrettyinPink55 and I seemed to have come to a conclusion...if it were a bet between Jack and Janet it wouldn't be as comedic because we all know that Janet would of been very stubborn. On the other hand, if Jack had a bet with Chrissy, it would be much more comedic because Chrissy would be more vulnerable, whereas Janet would definitely be persistant about the bet. Here is the link to the thread: http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/...+janet%27s+bet

As for the "woomate wager" scene, I think this was done on purpose. I have always noticed it, but I always thought that it was purposely done since Jack said "wager" right after saying "woomate". Both words ("woomate" is not an actual word, but you get my point) begin with a W, giving a repeated W sound, aliteration.
