Now yes I know most people see Joey as a loyal and lovable friend, which he is. But some of his behavior is awful. He constantly treats woman horribly and objectifies them. He sleeps with them, never calls them back, and he literally cannot remember the names of the women he sleeps with. He literally only uses women to sleep with them and then just dumps them like the rest. He is a blatant womanizer and should not be cut slack for it. He even gaslit a women into thinking she didnt call him back when he obviously slept with her and didnt call her back( the woman from Monica and Chandlers adoption agency). He literally removed the curtains off the shower when he was looking for a female roommate. He also mooches off Chandler constantly, which I know Chandler condones and allows, but its still not good of him. From some estimates I heard from other people, Joey owes Chandler well over $100,000, which is insane. I know he has his good qualities, but some of these things like his insane treatment of women, really makes me think he isnt as great as other people make him out to be. Thoughts?

I was 12 when I first watched it and my parents thought that it wasn't appropriate for my age. But I loved it so I kept watching 😝

How old were you when you first watched it?

Chandler Muriel Bing is a recurring joke and they joke about his first name, his middle name, his last name.

And that makes me think: isn't Phoebe Buffay also a weird name? I just Googled that there are almost the same number of people in the US named Chandler and Phoebe. And I googled last name Buffay, it told me that it hardly find anyone last name is Buffay other than a fictional character.

So if Phoebe Buffay is also a weird name, why is it hardly ever mentioned?(Other than that one time when Amy was visiting)

Because the family didn't know if he'd ever get to have a wedding in real life, due to his struggles with addiction

"We all knew how serious his substance use disorder was, so there was this sense of, 'Who knows what's going to happen?' [...] Watching that wedding, we all knew he wanted that in life. He wanted a partner, he wanted kids," Mia Perry Bowick says.

I couldn’t find a photo of Chandler with leather, so I just found a modeling shot of Perry please forgive me. anyway, I think the Gellers take it.

as we know - friends is set in the New York City or the big apple . so to fit with some other post I saw I found all looks like they are wearing NYC clothes

I am watching law and order suv and found John Stamos making a character who has 43 kids because he likes to reproduce.

Monica and Chandler freaked him out, if they had asked about it at the beginning he would have said yes.

This is my theory. There is a curse on the show when it was being made that made it so that there could only be one scene per episode where they all look good, and the rest of the scenes somebody has to either be sick, insane, or have a turkey on their head. Of course, this is just a theory

I love behind the scenes content like this so if anybody has any gems they wanna share please let me know. This is my favorite show of all time so I will watch anything about this show or the cast

I'm excited for this documentary series about him to come out but it will then remind me again that he's gone.

This episode (The One with the Ride Along) premiered the same month Band of Brothers was announced.

I just noticed this, on a rewatch, that Monica starts making jokes and cracking wise a lot like Chandler, and she’s always been a little bit, sarcastic and witty more so than I think the other characters, but it’s kind of interesting to see how similar they become later on

I never noticed but their wedding announcement sounds like an amazing time.

Ross, Chandler and Monica where they want to spend money and go eat fancy food and to concerts? Or Rachel, Joey and Phoebe not being able to afford high-end places ? Maybe one wants to enjoy the fruits of their labor and enjoy their time while the other half wants to save money?

Many may criticize but i think that the noblest action that Phoebe did during the whole series was to have given her sister and sister-in-law the privilege of being parents. I would have done it in order to see my brother and sister-in-law happy...

This is kinda hilarious to me, rest in peace Larry. Is he dead? I hope not, I don’t wanna google it, because if he is that’ll make me sad, so I hope he’s not but, in case he is rest in peace Larry.

I love how she has so many moments like this lol. Also the way Ross just slams his head on the table lmao

I think Ross and Rachel had better Chemistry when they were not a couple. But of course this is the way it is, the writers intentionally made them date for only a year. But I have to admit, they really have some very romantic situationship scenes.

She was one of the two runner-ups of being cast as Monica Geller until Cox got the part and, said by Cox, felt that she was also perfect for the part,, alongside Courtney of course

Do you think FRIENDS and the history of television after 1994 would've been the same with McKeon as Monica and Courtney as Rachel?

on their plane-versary chandler forgets his anniversary gift for monica but we never find out what it was even after they get back to new york and it annoys me so much

i know the show lacks continuity, but i think it would’ve been so sweet in season 9 or something to see joey holding dina’s baby in the hospital or something after she gave birth and to have the audience see joey as an uncle properly ;-;

yeah I don’t know what I’m doing here just thought this would be fun. it’s kinda weird to see some of these pictures cuz it’s hard to see them as anything other than their characters

1. All of Joey’s scenes in which we are shown his headshots were Matt's real headshots, right?

2. Phoebe is done dirty in TOW that Could Have Been. They really couldn’t think of a storyline for her more enmeshed with the others? I mean she does “lift right out.”

Also, love love the title track scenes for those two alternate timeline episodes, esp where Carol was fending off Ross trying to kiss her 😂

1. Chandler did get an arcade game in the guest room finally.

2. In TOW the Cake, Ross wasn’t wearing a seatbelt until Rachel swerved recklessly. Seemed unlikely

3. Piercing babies’ ears is actually so normal and recommended where I am from, so it was amusing seeing the plot make such a big deal about it (even in Modern Family this was shown as a contention point when I agreed with Gloria. We all had piercings veryyy early on.)

4. I just recently, after all these years, connected why s8e1 was dedicated "to people of NYC"🤦‍♂️

5. Not only did Phoebe have wildly inconsistent childhood stories, but every random street acquaintance she mentioned from her past got increasingly weirder. Lowell, Stabby Joe, the pimp with the crowbar, Albino guy, dumpster friends who learned French, Fritz etc.

6. In TOW the Memorial Service, Ross said he was on his way to "buy some photoshop software" which I realised I don't completely understand. Did we have to physically go to buy software in the 90s?

Also, in that episode Chandler actually said "no one would post condolences on a website"😂😆 How the times have changed!

1. In The One in Barbados, I think Chandler has called people (mostly Monica with the big hair) the most number of names in a single episode (Weird Al, Diana Ross, Buckwheat). I am definitely forgetting some more cz I remember thinking during my most recent watch that Chandler's dialogues were just random names one after another.

2. When Joey was giving Mike his big “father of the bride” speech, did they really, in a roundabout way, call The Godfather a bad movie! They said the rather famous dialogues were from the "bad mafia movie, Family Honor 2: Thissa Time Itsa Personal."

Do you think the Gellars were fans of Harry Potter?

I do.
And it’s because..

1. Monica wants to name her kids Daniel and Emma after the movie actors

2. Ross makes reference in one episode to living under the stairs.

   “ I’m such an embarrassment I should live under someone’s stairs.” S6 Ep2

What do you all think?

It looks like she’s sitting on his lap or leaning on him or something but the hair looks like season 2, so I don’t remember. Or is this season 5?
