Inspired by Niamh's Best Ending Thread. I thought we should have an appreciation thread for one of the greatest shows of our generation.

Loved the episode where Chandler hooking up with one of Joey's sisters and he cant remember which one loool
''oh would you JUST PLEASE!!''

[Roy Mars III]

Chandler was easily the best character. what a guy

[Lee.]

I'll never ever get bored watching re-runs of Friends!

Can't even think what my favourite episode is.. but I'm sure it would involve Ross :lovedup:

[Ramsay]

Ross is my favourite, was pretty boring in the first few seasons but towards the end when he starts going crazy is the greatest thing ever :love:

[Ramsay]

Major shampoo explosion!!

Hahaha.. yeah, like when his boss eats his sandwich! :laugh:

[Kate!]

:worship:

I love all the characters, Ross got funnier and funnier as time went by.

Loved the episode where Joey had got together with Rachel, and Ross invited them and Charlie round for dinner :laugh:

When he realised he was holding a red hot plate/dish!!

[Ramsay]

Yeah watched those before
When Joey keeps tripping over :laugh:

[MTVN]

Yeah Ross is probably the only character who got a lot better as the show went on, he was easily the best by the end

[Jake.]

Sill an amazing show, seasons 3,4,5,6 and 8 were brilliant.

[Kate!]

This... :D

[King Gizzard]

I know people genuinley dislike it, but sometimes I think it's a case of ''everyone loves it so I'll just go against the crowd and be cool''

...but I really really love it

Favourite: Ross
Person I'd care least about not being on the show: Monica

[King Gizzard]

It doesn't feel the same on Comedy Central, and it doesn't feel right watching it on dvd..I miss e4

[King Gizzard]

9BaOXDobBPw

the best

Yeah, Monica is probably my least favourite too.

[Glenn.]

The DVDs are better. They're uncut episodes on the DVDs.

[King Gizzard]

Possibly Rachel too, she's a bit overrated

[Ramsay]

Yeah E4 was terrible when they were edit the episodes it was awful..dunno if Comedy Central do it too..But i know E4 do it with How I Met Your Mother and I can see why people would hate the show if only watching it on E4 as all the best jokes are edited out :(

[Lee.]

My order of preference;

Ross

[Ramsay]

same

[Roy Mars III]

same same

[MTVN]

I think they made Joey a bit too stupid by the end, that episode where he's learning French is just stupid

[Locke.]

Ross
Chandler
Joey
Rachel
The other 2

Monica just wasn't really funny and started to ruin Chandler a bit towards the end, and Phoebe is just overrated. Ross is loved on here but he is always everyones least favourite character that I speak to

[Doogle]

Rachel
Ross
Chandler
Phoebe
Joey/Monica

Every character goes downhill by the end of the series for me except Rachel, she's the only one who's character develops well and she's my favourite. Been watching season 3 the past few weeks again, it's fantastic. Monica is awful at the end and ruins Chandler a bit, and Joey is so stupid it's painful to watch. Ross improves loads but I think he loses it by the end.

[Glenn.]

I watched a Friends THS and I never realised Matthew Perry suffered with drink and drugs? When you watch sons earlier ones he's really really skinny.


Also the six main cast members were paid $1m an episode for the tenth season :eek:

[Raph]

Chandler
Joey
Phoebe
Rachel

Get out Raph

[Doogle]

:joker:

[Shaun]

wish they'd ended it with the season Monica and Chandler got married... wouldn't have had to have witnessed Chandler have the life drained from him, Joey's whole "oh i suddenly like rachel" fiasco and 5 years of just awful television

[Shaun]

oh and

1) Chandler
2) Ross
3) Phoebe
4) Rachel
5) Joey
worst character ever on television) Monica

[AnnieK]

By far my favourite ever show.
1) chandler
2) phoebe
3) ross
4) joey
5) Monica
They did make joey really stupid by the end...he was cool for the first few seasons. Still love it now...so long after it ended. Am glad they have not milked it and made a movie...just don't think it would've worked

[Doogle]

:worship:

There were some classic parts like Rachel's pregnancy (she was fantastic that season) but the other characters got annoying and season 9/10 were appalling compared to the early ones. It was just dragged out for the predictable Ross/Rachel reunion. The finale was flawless though so I'm not complaining.

[Marc]

The Rachel Joey thing was awful. And awkward to watch

[mizzy25]

i loved all of friends ive seen them all like 20 times and im going thru them again on the dvd boxset. il never ever get sick of watching friends. fave episode was ross and the leather trousers. pure class.

[Jake.]

Season 8 was far more fresh than season 7. It was like a return to form, but 9 and 10 just went backwards down a hill imo. And Monica was a great character in seasons 2/3/4, but just became annoying.

5 years? You mean 3 lol?

Precisely.

Season 7 was horrific and relied on guest stars only. The only amazing ones were the holiday armadillo (which isn't even that good) and the wedding episode until Rachel stole their thunder at the end with her pregnancy cliffhanger.

Season 9 started good until Rachel suddenly liked Joey back, which was out of character

Can we all agree the best cliffhanger was Ross and Emily's wedding though :worship:

Tag, wtf was that about? It had its moments but overall 7 was pretty poor. The first few episodes of 8 were fantastic with the 'whos the daddy' episodes and just is general 8>7. And yes, to this day the bit when he says Rachel shocks me.

Completey agree - I watched it again on Sunday and it still manages to bring a tear to my eye....loved it

I agree they did make a couple of seasons too many but I still love every one

Did anyone watch Joey? What did you make of it?

[Ramsay]

Joey > Friends

The final scene was done so perfectly, always makes me cry

And I've never seen Joey, I didn't know it existed until recently :joker:

[Marsh.]

I remember I enjoyed One Where They're Up All Night from season 7. The whole thing with Phoebe and the smoke alarm was funny.

But you could give Lisa Kudrow a phonebook to read from and I would find her hilarious.

Beat me to it, that was one of the more enjoyable ones. A poll with all of the seasons should be included :D
