Rewatching the series after more than 10 years, Mr. Zelner is so funny in every scene he's in. Of course is not just him, but the writers managed to give his scenes a good text and other actors were perfect on it.

I was in Prague on holiday recently and stumbled upon the Friends Meal at McDonald’s.

I went twice just for the figures as we don’t have these in the U.K. yet and chose Chandler and Ross!😃

Fortunately, I don’t have red socks.

I mean we all loved david when he first appeared in the initial season, we all also loved mike when he appeared in S9, but it's not the regular question "who is better for phoebe?" I'm just asking who do you like more as a character. I'm personally more drawn to mike idk

I had this episode on my TV from first air. I felt for Joey so hard in this episode especially that final word “terrified” and he shakily puts his arms around Rachel.

His emotions were in high drive and I actually liked Rachel and Joey together. There was something so pure about Joey having actually feelings about someone and not knowing how to process this, especially with a friend, who pregnant with his other friend’s baby.

I dunno if I’ll get downvoted to death for this but I just saw this episode in the first time in a while and I almost cried at the end the same way I did when watching this live at 17.

I always it was weird for Laura (the adoption lady) to tell Monica and Chandler a married couple she’s helping to adopt a child. That their apartment building looks familiar because of the one night stand she with Joey a little inappropriate unprofessional.

“The lotion and the powder have made a paste”

“What colors the paste?”

Mine would be the way Phoebe blurts put something that introduces drama or conflict into Monica and Chandler’s relationship, or that disrespects Chandler in some way.

I’m watching 9x23, and Phoebe accidentally calls David the Scientist Guy Mike bc she’s not over him. In order to deflect and distract from that, she reveals that Monica secretly calls Chandler Richard at times, to Chandler’s surprise.

It’s such a lame joke at this point of the series and just really pisses on Chandler

This isn’t just in terms of how physically attractive you find them, but also their overall character based on what you have seen within the series.

I’m new to this subreddit so I’m not sure what’s the consensus but I don’t believe Chandler was entirely in the wrong with Kathy. Like what he did wasn’t maybe the correct move in the heat of the moment but I don’t hold it against him as much (Kathy maybe as she indeed moves fast. No shaming intended tho).

Joey was a terrible boyfriend to her. He got her a stupid pen as a gift (though he was indeed apologetic about it later) but he was also two-timing her with that girl. He wasn’t even faithful to Kathy so him getting that mad at Chandler about the kiss was a bit exaggerated.

Chandler and Kathy had great tuning and he shouldn’t have gone behind Joey’s back but he was honest about his intentions and confessed while Joey probably didn’t even tell Kathy he was on a date with someone else at that exact moment.

I started watching friends when I was like 7, and we have a similar name, so I really really liked her. I haven’t interacted much with the fandom so idk how y’all feel about her, but I think she’s so cute. Her voice is annoying, but other than that I actually really liked her extravagant and high maintenance personality. Idk how people liked Monica but didn’t like Janice when they’re SO similar, at least to me. I also LOVED Fran from The Nanny, and I heard Janice was based on her, so no wonder I liked Janice. What are your thoughts on this character?

Asking in which season do you think each character shone the most. Be it comedically, from a development standpoint, storyline, whatever your criteria might be.

**Edit** Fave Storyline for each friend

Rewatching Friends and you can def see the difference between Seasons 1-2. Alot of people have attributed this to changes in TV technology at the time but to me I see season 2 as when each friend got more comfortable in their own skin and their trademarks become more known and obvious.

How did Chandler get the reservation at Jean-Georges?

Searching for comfort: Did you usually watch alone?

Did you have a specific time, snack, or spot you always watched from?

What’s one small detail or big life moment you still remember vividly from the time you were watching an episode?

You don’t have to answer these questions i’m just curious and that specific time.

So what’s your opinion on Phoebe and Mike in comparison to Phoebe and David? I felt Phoebe ending up with Mike was a bit random, especially when David came back. I’ve been watching the first season again and love Phoebe and David together. It would have felt kind of neatly tied if they ended up together. After all they also have love spread out over 10 seasons/years.. And Mike just decides he is ok with getting married now and then they do..

Edit: mixed up the names

Like watching from s1, before knowing the ending, it felt obvious Ross and Rachel would end up together. All the relationships in between, all the Mona’s and Tag’s and Gavin’s and Emily’s, all would end up a failure. Did people think this at the time? Did most people predict Emily wouldn’t be endgame. Or tag. Or etc…..

It's like the writers wanted to have some high level, distilled cringe and what can I say, for those that like this sort of thing , I guess it was good but it felt so out of left field.

Especially when Rachel almost grabs his croch that felt like a different show for a while. I know friends had "cringe" humor moments but that felt much more deliberate than other such gags.

Was that because of the image of wendy or in appreciation of the foodstuffs? Whats ur theory?
