Just found out the 'Friends' fountain intro took over 100 tries to film

I was watching a behind the scenes thing on YouTube (you know, the kind you fall into at 2 AM). They said they had to do the opening credits bit with the fountain like 102 times because of the water and the timing. That's a whole day just for a 30 second clip! It makes you think about all the weird little things that go into making a show. What's the most surprising 'making of' fact you've heard about a show you love?

Honestly, that seems like a pretty normal amount of takes for something that tricky.

Yeah, I was just reading about how many tries it takes to get a complex shot right. Some directors will do dozens for just one scene.
