Combine Friends S9 Ep23/24

"Friends" The One in Barbados (TV Episode 2003) - IMDb

"Friends" The One in Barbados (TV Episode 2003) - IMDb

These two episodes should be combined into one. It is a two-parts 50-minutes episode. At the moment the title is doubled up, the running time is both 50 minutes and the cast list is not accurate. Some actors appeared only in one part are listed in both parts. 

To separate one episode into two parts, the first part must have an ending credit. I can't find this ending credit either in DVD or Blu-ray. And from what I see what on the IMDb database now, I'm pretty sure there is no such ending credit.

Here is the ending credit (from No. 7 onward excluding 6 main casts) in Blu-ray.

I understand it will be a major job to combine episodes and I'm happy to have further discussion with the staff. Thanks.

IMDb titles are supposed to reflect episodes as they originally aired. I see they both have an airdate of 15May2003, so I imagine they ran back-to-back that night.

Here's a wiki site with cast differences:

https://friends.fandom.com/wiki/The_One_In_Barbados,_Part_1

https://friends.fandom.com/wiki/The_One_In_Barbados,_Part_2

I didn't compare this with what IMDb has.

If IMDb policy is to keep them separate, then the titles should be augmented to state Part 1 and Part 2. Right now they are the same.

@bderoes​ It is aired back-to-back on that night. I just cannot find anywhere of the ending credit for the first part. If there is no ending credit, it should not be kept as a separate episode. It should be combined with the second part. Fandom is not very reliable source, do you have by any chance the screenshot?

@sammypan​ Hi!

Where you able to find evidence of them having or not separate ending credits?

Thanks!

@Bethanny​ Hi Bethanny I've provided the link of ending credit in my post: https://imgur.com/a/xkGKu2l. It is the combined ending credit for both parts. I cannot find anywhere with the first part ending credit. Thanks.
