DD is back from uni and she's asked to watch the whole Friends series together over her holidays.
I honestly haven't watched any of them since the first time round, but the one scene that stuck in my mind is this one...

God, too many to choose from, but definitely a hilarious one, not one of the poignant or romantic scenes! Maybe when Chandler comes home to find Joey locked in a cupboard and all their furniture stolen!

Pivot.

Oh goodness there's loads, I think 'Pivot' is right up there though!
And the one where Gary Oldman is drunk and Joey is trying to get out for Monica and Chandler's wedding "Is that my arse?" 🤣

Strokethefurrywall · 13/12/2025 12:48

Oh man so many of them, but my funniest is when Ross is playing Celebrations on the bagpipes and Phoebe tries to join in - still cracks me up years later!
And when we learn that Ross was in fact Monica’s midnight mystery kisser and her first kiss ever.

I think my favourite is the one where no one is ready. Just the escalation of sitting on the chair, taking the cushions (or the essence) then the commando. Just brilliant
Also PIVOT, the holiday armadillo (my 12 yo was asking about Jewish holidays the other day and all he got back was me and DH quoting ross as the holiday armadillo), he's her lobster and MY EYES

The whole episode regarding “ The Europe Story” . So clever

You were my first kiss EVER?!

Bobje · 13/12/2025 13:08

Aww thanks you guys! These are bringing back so many memories!
Another that's come to mind is the countdown to the New Year and Ross and Monica do their routine on TV 😆

Ross being stuck in the leather trousers.

Ross in the spray tan booth

Ross being stuck in the leather trousers.

Which has just reminded me of

I WAS the pile of coats!

Joey finding out about Chandler and Monica.

grafittiartist · 13/12/2025 13:13

The one with the quiz where the girls lose the apartment is my favourite. Series 4.
and an early Valentine’s Day one- where Joey sets up Chandler with Janice. May be series 1 or 2.

Ahh my sweater, I’ve been looking for this for like a month!

The one where Ross had told his parents that chandler smoked weed 😂

Fantastic whole episode 🤣

RememberHowYouMadeMeCrazy · 13/12/2025 13:22

So many but I loved the whole episode where Rachel makes the trifle.

ConnieHeart · 13/12/2025 13:22

My favourite episode is The One Where Ross is Fine. Each storyline is comedy gold, from where Monica & Chandler visit a couple's house & Chandler tells their little boy he's adopted only he didn't know, to where Ross is cooking for Rachel, Joey & that woman he was dating & he gets very drunk and does the L.O.V.E. poem thing then carries the fajitas out with his bare hands. "That's gonna hurt tomorrow!"

PIVOT!!!
