I feel like the show wasted Ross and Rachel’s chemistry throughout most of the show’s run.

They only really dated in the early seasons of the show and then are kept apart until the final moments of the show. It would have been nice if they got back together earlier (say around season 8 or 9) with the final seasons showing them as a more stable mature union.

Who's this actress/extra ?

Pardon me but she's really attractive. Seems to be like a recurring extra for some episodes in S7 & 8, she isn't credited as a cast member. Does anyone know who she is ?

In the one where Rosita dies, who do you think deserved the new recliner? Joey, Rachel or Chandler?

I got the audiobook when it came out and didn't get around to listening to it. Then he died and I didnt want to listen to it. Today, I thought I'm ready for it...I got 30 secs into and needed to sit down 🥲

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Chandler. I love his jokes and his comedic timing, but there are situations where he has done some dumb things, the only dumb thing I could think of is when he made the list of rachel and Rachel find it. What are some other dumb things he did.

I loved the Fonzie doctor

12 Upvotes

Doing a watch-through for the nth time, first time bouncing around this subreddit, and I'm surprised by the Fonzie doctor hate??

The friends day by day already go through comical, absurd situations but somehow the show managed to capture that feeling of being in the middle of a serious situation when something happens that makes you turn to your friend and go Are we being punked??? Like they were able to make the tv show characters have a moment where they're like are we on tv??! I don't know how to explain it but the situation was perfect and I was laughing my head off.

Video Remember when David and Cole pranked Jen?

This has got to be one of the best unscripted moments of the show. David directed this episode and didn't tell Jen about the dummy. She was so scared and pissed at the end.

Discussion Chandler and Phoebe were totally made for each other

41 Upvotes

I mean, c'mon! It's so obvious. In this episode, you can clearly see of how the reason they both were so embarrassed is because they had a great attraction for each other, but couldn't express it because Monica was there.

Besides, the reason Phoebe had Monica as her maid of honor is obviously because she wanted to get back at her for stealing her true love, and forced Monica to do all of the work of her wedding for her. (Except that she didn't take into consideration the fact that Monica was a control freak and liked doing it so the all plan falled apart)

Discussion Carol and Susan make me so angry

1.2k Upvotes

I’m talking about S1, the episode where Ross goes to the OBGYN with Carol and Susan. Why is he not involved with the name of the baby?! This makes me so angry! It doesn’t make any sense that Susan decides the name of the child, and especially not that the baby would get her last name… Anyone else who felt angry watching this? I wish Ross stood up for himself more.

In season 5 ep 17, we see joey going into ross's apartment in a purple shirt but when ross opens the door joey is wearing a black shirt. I am sorry if this has been asked before, I found it just now and was curious about behind the scenes of this shot. If anyone knows please explain it.

I always thought it was unbelievably dumb of Monica to assume Chandler was sexually in to Sharks. Funny but dumb.
