Default Actual Facts about who the funniest characters were in FRIENDS
So

1. Chandler Bing

2. Ross

3. Joey

4. Monika

5. Rachel

6 Phoebe

Im pretty sure that is a universal factoid?

I will report anyone who says that Phoebe is funniest because that is a problem you have with humour and it should not be inflicted on members

Joey was funny initially but they dumbed him down far too much and made him seem really thick by the end.

Chandler was hilarious all the way through.

I do love them all....Monica was probably my least fave, she was just shouty....but then at times she was funny too.

Right forget it, I can't choose

Sorry but Lisa Kudrow is one of the strongest comedy performers and is certainly not last.

Boring Ross is.

…Chandler/Phoebe might be a joint first, they’re so close…but I’m going to say Phoebe as top because of her song lyrics and because when she laughs…..

Phoebe
Chandler
Joey
Monica
Rachel
Ross

I see no actual facts in the OP, only conjecture.

Here is a scientific data analysis with some facts in it.
https://theartandscienceofdata.wordp...niest-friends/

Based on lines given, what percent were funny... the correct order is:

Chandler
Joey
Phoebe
Rachel
Monica
Ross

They all have their moments and it changed over the years. For example, Ross hit his peak in the middle seasons - was not funny at all in the earlier seasons, and TBQFH was a risk to himself and the public by the end. Joey likewise was one of the funniest for ALMOST the whole run but they made him FAR too dumb for the last 3 or 4. Monica was more annoying than funny by the end, too, and similar to Ross peaked in the "middle" seasons.

ALSO

It depends on who they're with. Some characters play better off each other than others.

I dunno. I refuse to make a list. But roughly by "halves", top half Chandler/Joey/Phoebe and bottom half Monica/Ross/Rachel.

In terms of the "playing off each other" mentioned above, Chandler and Janice's interactions are easily some of the best in the early seasons. Joey's reactions to Janice in that mix as well .
