From what you guys have shown already, I think it is indeed a Gottlieb Tropic Isle.
And I apologize for not having a better pic of it. It was a smartphone snap of paused DVD playback, and unfortunately my tower PC is down right now so I was unable to do an actual DVD rip for a clearer pic of that scene.
BTW, that episode also features a pre-Happy Days Tom Bosley as a womanizing businessman (!).

Quoted from ImNotNorm:Friends - 'The one with the flashback'
Sorry about the bad glare on the tv.

"Five Easy Pieces" (1970) - Got 3 of the 5 pictured:
Far Left: Cover Girl (Gottlieb, 1962)
Middle: Lucky Strike (Williams, 1965; I -think- its ball-in-play score reel is on that backglass, if not then it's the Bowl-A-Strike AAB)
Far Right: North Star (Gottlieb, 1964)
I'll let you all ID the other two...

Quoted from dirkdiggler:Not sure if it's been mentioned yet but I recently watched one of my favorite movies when I was a kid, Porky's. There's a Buccaneer and another pin beside it in the whore house and what looks to be a nip it later in the flick.
Quoted from dirkdiggler:[quoted image]
Think the unnamed one is Big Shot (Gottlieb, 1974).

Two separate pin scenes from Boogie Nights (1997) ...
First one shows a Stardust (Williams, 1971) and an Aladdin's Castle (Bally, 1976). The second scene has a side view of a Big Strike (Williams, 1966).
20200829_222058[2].jpg20200829_222507[2].jpg
Added over 4 years ago: EDIT: Turns out the Big Strike is actually its replay sibling Hot Line. There's a backbox closeup of it later in the film that I somehow missed...

Quoted from schudel5:Knight Rider. Episode 417 "Knight of a Thousand Devils" glimpse of a Stern Flight 2000 at around the 25 minute mark.
I happen to have another one of Flight 2000 (Stern, 1980): The film Terms Of Endearment (1983) has the briefest view of this pin in the hotel lobby's arcade room (only 3-4 film frames; this pic's the most visible one of the game).

Quoted from Hammer3246:WKRP, no idea what machines, just loved the show.

Lucky Seven (Williams, 1978), Pinball Pool (Gottlieb, 1979) in the background.
Probably my favorite '70s sitcom!
Quoted from girloveswaffles:Picture of Lucky Seven cabinet for reference:[quoted image]
now the question is is it a EM or a SS?
As I recall the episode doesn't show the backbox at all, only the cabinet left side.

Quoted from sunnRAT:Bally Nitro Groundshaker? Not 100% sure though.
Edit: Nope, its not Nitro. Heres another screenshot. [quoted image]
Quoted from TopMoose:Could it be Aladdin’s Castle?
Possibly Bobby Orr Power Play (Bally, 1978)? I see digital displays.
To the right of that one I'm calling Duotron (Gottlieb, 1974).
Quoted from illawarra92:Magnatron, the 4 player version
It's only showing two (2) lit score reel displays in Game Over mode, Magnotron would have all four lit. Plus from a distance it looks like the bolder lettering for the "DUOTRON" game name on the BG, Mag's lettering is more condensed for space and has nowhere near that much illuminated yellow.
Compare these two vids (beware - first one's loud!!)
Quoted from PinMonk:Do you know what episode this was, or even a clue of what it was about? That way I can attach the season and episode number.
"The Conspirators" (S7E05, 5/13/1978). It aired on MeTV recently.
FWIW, besides the Monte Carlo, there's also a 4 Square (Gottlieb, 1971) and a Flying Carpet (Gottlieb, 1972) in the same scene.

Quoted from girloveswaffles:Okay, So I can see the Nordamatic Champion and the Williams Winner, but I'm not sure about the other one. Is it a Gottlieb High Hand?
Top Hand (Gottlieb, 1973), the Italian version of Capt. Card (AAB of High Hand).

This was an interesting find; I was watching a vintage 1967 Championship Bowling film print on YouTube that still had its original commercials, and up comes this pinball-themed Schaefer beer commercial featuring a re-themed Double Action (Gottlieb, 1958) that "plays music" (that I'm assuming was Schaefer's jingle at the time).

Here's the commercial clip itself (the brief close-up of the flippers at the 38:14 mark gives away the actual game) ...

The first feature film from director Richard Linklater (Dazed And Confused); came out in 1988. He's the one playing FP. I believe it's an extra on Linklater's Slacker Criterion Blu-ray.
Quoted from ourdave76:Can anyone identify this pin from the 2007 film Blades of Glory at the 1:08:40 mark

Looks like Circus (Bally, 1973) to me.

Quoted from kingpinman:Don't know the one next to Hollywood
I would say Top Score (Gottlieb, 1975) except the bottom front of the backbox frame doesn't match up.
Quoted from pinwiztom:one on far left might be BLY Knockout
as it looks like boxing gloves on the front of the CAB
Yes, Knockout (Bally, 1975).

A Star Is Born (1976 Streisand/Kristofferson version) ...
* Camelot (Bally, 1970) with ultra-gaudy cabinet paint and/or papering, even on the coin door + legs
* Suspense (Williams, 1969)
* Hit And Run Base-Ball (Williams, 1970)
The driving game on the far left -- same cab alteration as Camelot -- is a Chicago Coin Speedway.
There's also a coin-op Computer Quiz trivia game in the room (not shown).

Quoted from gdonovan:Williams Magic City or Magic Town, can't make it out. 1967
Looks like Magic City from the wording, plus there's no white Balls To Play indicator that MT has at its top backglass edge.
MC's ball lights are along the right edge with a red Ball In Play square above them that's visible here (it's a white Previous Hi-Score space on MT).

Quoted from pinball2020:The pinball machine in the music video called Greatness is a "Huncho" machine. It is a retheme to tie in I would think with Rapper Quavo (Quavious Keyate Marshall “Quavo”,) and his name was Huncho in the Migos (If I got this right ).
[quoted image]
It appears to be a re-themed Quick Draw (Gottlieb, 1975) from the playfield layout.

Quoted from ourdave76:The movie Runaway Nightmare, 1982. Only shows side cabinet, what pin is this?
[quoted image]
It's either the replay Drop-A-Card or add-a-ball
Pop-A-Card (Gottlieb, 1971/1972 respectively).
(The 1971 Card King was the export version for Italy, same cab art.)

Pin is in the back of a garage.
I don't know which game it is, thinking Gottlieb in the 60s.

Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:It looks familiar, but can't seem to recall. At first I was thinking Diamond Jack / King of Diamonds, but it's a different diamond paint scheme.
Quoted from Mopar:I'm thinking I have that game in storage (or if Replay, the AAB version),
but I can't recall the title..
#top-card (Gottlieb, 1974).
AAB is Royal Pair, exported to Italy.
Quoted from pinball2020:The Continental Season 1 Episode 2 at 58 minutes 02 seconds in.[quoted image]

Quoted from Snickers45:Second comes from Star 80 (1983) at the Playboy Mansion, Eric Roberts playing a Bally's Strikes and Spares, Black Knight on the background. The one on the foreground is a Tri-Zone. Not sure the one next to Black Knight.

Quoted from o-din:Ah yes, Walter Matthau as the drunk in Earthquake. Classic!
Matthau made a deal with the producer that he'd do this cameo without compensation only if he was credited in the film as "Walter Matuschanskayasky." 
(No, that's not Matthau's real name despite years of rumors to the contrary.)
