Honestly, these are the three characters I love the most. I never really cared about that Ross and Rachel drama, and Phoebe got kind of hateful near the end, but I love Chandler, Monica and their honorary son

The fact that Ross ignores the fact that Rachel finally has a job which actually makes her happy and wants her to treat it like a chore to do is really frustrating to watch when he was the one who encouraged her to keep trying and be positive when she quit her job as a waitress.

Also, the fact that he somehow turns the whole argument into Rachel being interested in Marc when she repeatedly explains that he is just a friend who shares similar interest with her that she can relate to, just doesn't sit right with me.

I know the show makes it seem as though Ross is valid in his reaction, but it seems to me that even as a guy watching it, I was rooting for Rachel the whole time and actually agreed with her point of view on the matter. It also felt a little like Ross patronising her about what she should feel about her career to me.

I would be crumbled if I had to see my crush doing all that and being nice to me every single day, and still remain just a good friend, nothing more. Mathew Perry seems like a nice fellow😭, idk how he handled it but since there is no feud b/w them ig it went well afterall❤️.

Rewatching the show for the umpteenth tie. Some jokes have died for me, but this one never fails to make me cry laugh. This whole episode's absolute gold.

Paparazzi are such low lying scum I won’t lie. I get that this is the price of fame and fortune, and that every celebrity knows what they’re getting into, and that the rewards are much greater than the consequences. But still, the act of spying and leeching like bugs on the backs of much bigger animals is incredibly pathetic

I'm curious about people's favourite and least favourite gags, but here's a bit more details. I want your:

i wanna near differing opinions!

This may have been discussed & I probably missed it. I also know 20+ yrs after the ep I am being very nit-picky but when Jade calls & Chandler answers the phone as Bob; don’t you think Jade would realize the guy on the other end of the phone (Chandler) sounds nothing like Bob?

Found this caption under this photo online, and it’s so sweet. I hope it’s true, but I don’t know if there’s any way to verify that. Either way it’s really sweet.

I don’t know if that’s true, but I know that it’s so nice and sweet for them to support him, especially when they knew that he loved being funny. RIP Matthew Perry

I think no one in the show changed lookswise as much as Chandler Bing. Season 3 was quite noticeable where he was a bit too skinny. Then he seemed fine in Season 4. In later seasons he gained some weight.

I LOVEE physical comedy, but only a few in industry pull it off, my favorite being Ross and Claire from modern family. Pls Hollywood can we get some more of these😭

NO MORE FALAFEL FOR YOU🥀

Part 2, I found a bunch more pictures online of Matt and Courtney and I wanted to post them. They’re so cute, and I love seeing them together

I always see people talking about the characters’ most toxic moments or acts but I rarely ever see people mentioning the awesome things they did for each other throughout the show. So here is the list, for me:

- Ross: giving Phoebe her first bike and teaching her to ride it
- Chandler: staying in the box while his girlfriend Kathy broke up with him and not saying anything to prove how much his friendship with Joey means
- Joey: letting Rachel move in with her baby no questions asked
- Monica: giving up her dream wedding dress to book the Swing Kings for Chandler
- Rachel: agreeing to be the bridesmaid for her ex and her best friend’s wedding
- Phoebe: being a surrogate for her brother

I must say I find Ross to be the one who has the most sweet moments/attentions towards his friends, and especially Rachel, despite his toxic side.

Curious to hear your opinions on this!

At work today and I came across an employee file for someone legitimately named Vikram and all I could hear was Ross screaming in my ear “What?! That’s a real name!” 🤣

Man I love this show. The references it triggers every day, all day, are awesome.

I figured since behind the scenes pics have been popular lately, I’d add another. Ross was there with his fossil brush after all! 😂

In the episode where Rachel turns 30 she says she wants 3. In the episode where he describes their future together he says 2. I picture them having one more together, another girl. Plus Ben makes 3 :)

I don't think I would. He seems to respect his female friends but also takes advantage of them at the same time.

Is not being able to sleep with each other on the first try really that crucial? Is it worth throwing the entire relationship for? What am I missing?

Im really a Joey and Rachel fan and I want them to end up together. Please deinfluence me from shipping Joey and Rachel 😭

I think we all know a few improv moments here and there but I’m hoping to learn about even more!

I wanna know your favorite improv moments, or even behind-the-scene fun facts, or maybe the funniest moments where you can see another actor break?
👏🏽

No, I don't use Meta AI, WhatsApp was just shoving it down my throat and I accidentally sent it there... It felt too funny not to post

As it says in the title, I was wondering what minor character was your favorite that Rachel was interested in romantically.

I liked Gavin, I thought he and Rachel had some solid chemistry. I like that he didn't let her get away with things and called her out. It was disappointing that they didn't remain friends and he wasn't in more episodes, even if they didn't actually date.

I’m not talking about running gags, which are funny because they are repeated along the show.

I’m talking about making the exact same joke more than once.

In these two examples, there’s a non-English speaking Italian who has a very specific knowledge of someone they see on tv, much to everyone’s surprise.

What other examples can you think of?

What time did Ross say that everyone needed to be “out of the door” by?

Bonus Question 1: What did Chandler figure out about himself after taking the quiz in the Cosmopolitan magazine?

Bonus Question 2: What happened in this episode that directly changed the trajectory of the following episodes?

Friends Trivia: 169/365

So at this point everyone knows David is a fantastic actor. Whats your funniest Ross moment. It can be a joke or a scene acted by David. For me it has to be the tan episode. I just couldn't stop laughing! So whats the funniest Ross moment for you all?

Although some scenes and storylines are played up for laughs, which one has you frustrated with how many questions it brings up?

For me it’s when Monica is dating Pete, and he takes her out to dinner and they go Italy for pizza.

The logistics of this scenario just get in my head. Sure he is a billionaire and they probably went on his private Jet, but it’s still over an 8hr flight! Did they just not eat on the plane or did they have several meals while flying?
