What's weird is how we don't see Frank Jnr at Phoebe's wedding, I guess the excuse was the blizzard.

Another episode I'm really fond of is when Ross is trying to get everyone to hurry up and get ready ,when he's doing a important speech/ event or something. And Chandler & Joey are fighting over the chair like little kids :joker: .

Another reason I really like this episode....is because it was when I discovered friends ,and it was the first episode I saw :love: lol .

Oh and that episode where I think it's Rachel goes to see Ross when he's giving a lecture and he's speaking with a "British" accent :laugh:

Can you even watch it now ??

It was sad of course,but I still enjoy watching friends...as it's nostalgic & funny . And there's a few famous faces in different TV shows & movies ...who have passed ,but by watching these things...I guess it's keeping their memories alive.

When Robin Williams died for e.g ,all I wanted to do was rewatch Mrs Doubfire & Jumanji :love: .

Tbh sometimes I feel that way aswell, like when Patrick Swayze passed. But Dirty Dancing & Ghost are some of my favourite movies, Ghost now has that added poignancy though.

One which always springs to mind is the one where nobody can sleep. Phoebe and the smoke alarm get me every time.

…yeah, same…the Rachel/Ross thing probably became the least interesting/entertainingthing of the series for me…I loved Monica but Phoebe was always my favourite female character from the start…

…Giovanni Ribisi who played Frank junior is the lead character in a series called Sneaky Pete, which I watched not that long ago….he and the series are both excellent, I’d recommend if you haven’t seen it…

I saw the first season ages ago, I did like it but I think there was only 1 season out at that time and I just forgot about it! He was in something I watched recently too, Contraband

…I don’t think I’ve seen Contraband so I’ll check that out …is it a dramatised series…?…or actual border control…

…ahhh, I thought it was a series and the only series that was coming up with that name was like a documentary/follow the Mexican border control, type one…:laugh:..

Never seen a single episode.

MTVN 09-01-2025 04:11 PM

The goat episode will always be the one where they play the game to switch apartments

I love a lot of the later episodes which Ross carries as well - the sandwich, the leather pants, his fake tan. There were some great episodes with him and Mona too like when she finds out Ross got Rachel pregnant and when he's trying to retrieve his 'salmon' jumper

The apartment switches is one of my faves as is Ross’ sandwich.

MTVN 09-01-2025 04:18 PM

Also when they all find out about Chandler and Monica which is another great Ross moment

The most unjustly maligned character, she was treated dirty by Ross and the crew

She was a bit up herself though. But yeah Ross didn't have a leg to stand on.

I didn't think the show was as good overall after Monica and Chandler moved in together, although there was still a lot of great episodes.
