The Story Behind Phoebe’s Reincarnated Mom
via friends.wikia.com
In season 4, episode 2, Phoebe becomes convinced that her mother has been reincarnated as a cat. This is not so weird for Phoebe, who is generally pretty loopy. But even then, it’s a bit of a stretch.
Well, as it turns out, Marta Kauffman wrote the episode shortly after her own mother had died. In an interview with the writers, they admit that had that not been the case, the plot would have been shot down at the table read, but those being the circumstances, they all guiltily accepted and it turned out to be quite a good episode of the show.
