They all have good fashion. Anyone cool now is just recreating the fashion from then!

Can't remember if I've said it before in this thread, but Friends is the ultimate comfort show as far as I'm concerned. You can throw on basically any episode (except maybe the clipshow and "What if?" episodes) and immediately know exactly where you are in the context of the overall story based on how each character interacts with another. That's strong, dedicated writing. I can understand why it's not everyone's bag, and some of the jokes really haven't aged well, but if you're at home in the middle of the day and there's nothing else you fancy doing, turning over to Comedy Central for a couple of Friends episodes makes an hour feel like an instant. In my view, that's a real strength, especially for comedy shows.
Is that really your view or did you pinch it from someone else?
I can assure you, it's mine.Is that really your view or did you pinch it from someone else?
I watch an episode on the way to work every morning. Always good to start the day with a laugh.
Spot on!
The one where Ross and Rachel takes a break
Love this show.

That is @Spoony's favourite episode.The one where Ross and Rachel take a break
Love this show.
Think season 5 was the worst, especially that finale with the hand twin thing, my God, what was that all about!
But I love the show, very consistently funny and some good story lines

Great feel good show.
Can't beat Friends, that show just never gets too old.
Best show ever. They were all hilarious.
It's timeless.
Just recently started on this again. Perfect thing to put on when I just want to switch off. Oh, and it’s been about twenty years since I saw my first episode, and Rachel is still GOAT.
I always liked the bits featuring Joey's acting career.
Drake Ramoray ?
There was something about Joseph Stalin, too if my memory isn't connecting wrong.
And Freud.
Chandler tricked Joey into using the stage name Joseph Stalin.
I must have been through the entire series a dozen times over the years and I don’t remember this episode.
The one with all the resolutions is freaking hilarious. Rachel discovers Monica and Chandler's relationship.
This show is great!

Don't know if a new thread exists, but the 25th anniversary of the show is coming up in a few days.
Just saw this on verge and found it pretty funny :
Google ‘Phoebe Buffay’ and she’ll sing Smelly Cat to celebrate 25 years of Friends

There are easter eggs for all the other characters as well.

- Phoebe Buffay - Smelly Cat song
- Ross Geller - pivot joke
- Joey Tribbiani - pizza takes over your screen
- Chandler Bing – a chick and a duck appear
- Rachel Green – you’ll find The Rachel haircut
- Monica Geller - obsessive cleanliness will kick in
Havent read it, but saw online if you google: "Friends Glossary" it will give some terms from the show.
Ross, Joey and Phoebe are the best ones
The best one is the one with the holiday card
I strongly believe there is a friend quote for just about any situation.
I must have watched each episode 10 to 20 times. My absolute favourite show of all time.
Oh and prime monica shits on prime rachel

I’d like to see that episode.
Me too. Theres probably a parody on pornhub
Supposedly it's not an episode, the whole cast are just going to be sat together doing a Q&A.
Imagine getting paid $3 million for that.
Didn't they do that a couple of years back ?
I'm guessing that they will be in character to an extent. One of those look back episodes with about 15 minutes of new scenes of them as middle aged folk awkwardly cramming in updates on what's happened to their character over the last 15 years and getting in jokes about Monica's OCD, Joey being a manwhore, Phoebe being a kook, Chandler awkwardly making jokes, Rachel and Ross being Rachel and Ross and Gunther still looking 60.
Sounds brilliant!
Damn Hectic!
I know it’s probably quite low brow but I genuinely think it’s the greatest TV show of all time. As others have said, you can put on any episode and it’s instant comfort food. I’m going through quite a hard time at the moment with some mental health stuff and watching just a single episode of Friends makes me forget all that. Surely that’s what the best entertainment does?
I should add that I am also watching the remastered HD Baywatch on Prime so my bar may not be that high! Haha.

It’s easy watch perfection.
They are probably just testing whether or not people care about their "current" life, so the Q and A theme whilst in character is effectively market research. Positive response = new series of friends. They'd all be nuts to turn it down, they'd instantly become the biggest tv stars in the world again and make an insane amount of money.
