so here i've compiled my favorite ten episodes from friends. why? because i'm bored. and because i feel the desire to do this every time one of my favorite episodes airs on tbs or the wb. thank the lord for reruns! they're in no particular order except in the manner in which they originally aired. so uh, i guess they have a particular order.
[ post compliation: ] as tedious as this was... finding images, running searches for episode scripts... it was oh-so-worth-it. i'm making it a point that i'm aware of this so please refrain from leaving comments about how bored i must've been, or how much of a loser i am. anyway, i don't think i've ever laughed so hard with any blog post in the past... so i hope you guys enjoy reading this one as much as i did putting it together.
[01] 2.08 -- the one with the list. ross makes a list of pros and cons trying to decide between julie and rachel. the one where pheobe sings,
"there was a girl, we call her betty, and a guy let's call him neil. now i can't stress this point too strongly, this story isn't real. now our neil must decide, who will be the girl that he casts aside. will betty be the one he loves truly? or will it be the one who we'll call ju...loolie? he must decide, he must decide, even though i made him up, he must decide!"
it's also the one with what's probably my all-time favorite line in any episode,
"it's always been you, rach."
[02] 3.02 -- the one where no one's ready. when everyone's getting ready to go to ross' banquet. rachel's mad at ross - and he was willing to drink the fat: "i think this will be fine. okay, vanilla milkshake, just a vanilla milkshake, with chicken bits floating in it. cheers." and joey puts on all of chandler's clothes and starts to do lunges. "look at me! i'm chandler! could i be wearing any more clothes? maybe if i wasn't going commando..."
[03] 3.05 -- the one with frank jr. aka the one with the freebies. where everyone makes a list of five celebrities they get to sleep with despite being in a relationship. chandler convinces ross to take isabella rosselini off his list because of "geography" and she ends up coming into central perk so rachel says he can consider her an alternate and when monica asks, "rach, are you really going to let him do this?" she answers, "honey, he's about to go hit on isabella rosselini. i'm just sorry we don't got popcorn."
[04] 3.19 -- the one with the tiny t-shirt. this is probably one of my most favorite ross & rachel moments. when he insists on taking his favorite frankie say relax shirt back - and even puts it on to prove that it still fits (right) ... and at the end of the episode she gets a box of her things back, and inside - she finds the t-shirt.
[05] 4.07 -- the one where chandler crosses the line. aka the one with "the sound". this episode was on the other night and i laughed just as hard as i did the first million times i saw it. "c'mon, play that funky music white boy!"
"infinite time... time... time..."
[06] 5.23 -- the one in vegas. when ross sees rachel dancing naked in her apartment across the street and rushes over thinking she's doing it on purpose wanting sex. on the plane to vegas, she mentions something about not getting embarassed as easily as ross does so he draws a mustache on her face. upon landing in vegas, pheobe responds with, "what? did you go to a costume party? let me guess umm... pancho vila?"
[07] 6.17 -- the one with the unagi. finding screen captures for all these episodes were nearly impossible, but i did... 'cept for this one. i managed to find TWO... and now i'm tired of searching, so all y'all are just gonna hafta deal.
rachel: what? you wanna see me self-defend myself?! go over there and pretend you're a sexual predator! go on! i dare ya!!
ross: well, of course you can defend yourself from an attack you know is coming, that's not enough. look, i studied kara-tay for a long time, and there's a concept you should really be familiar with. it's what the japanese call... unagi.
rachel: isn't that a kind of sushi?
ross: no, it's a concept!
pheobe: yea it is! it is! it's a freshwater eel!
"ahh... salmon skin roll..."
which really isn't as funny unless you do it
with the two fingers to the temple thing.
omgosh, i'm laughing so hard
by myself right now.
[08] 7.06 -- the one with the nap partners. "DIE HARD!!"
joey: uh hey look uh, ross, look i think we need to talk about before.
ross: no! no we don't!
joey: yes we do! now look, that was the best nap i've ever had!
ross: i... i don't know know what you're talking about.
joey: come on! admit it! that was the best nap you've ever had!
ross: i've had better.
joey: okay! when?!
ross: all right! all right! it was the best nap ever!
joey: uh-huh!
ross: i've said it! okay?! but it's over joey!
joey: fine! do you want something to drink?
ross: sure, what do you got?
joey: warm milk and excedrin PM.
[09] 10.03 -- the one with ross' tan. after checking out his sister's legs... monica gives him the card to the spray-on tan place and ross says, "hey, i know where this place is! it used to be an x-rated video... florist."
"one mississippi, two mississippi, three mis..."
"i said count to five!"
"mississippilessly?!"
[10] 10.14 -- the one with princess consuela. where pheobe can't decide what she wants to do with her last name after marrying mike... and finds out that she can change her name to anything she wants, so she goes with miss princess consuela banana hammock. so mike retaliates with mr. crap bag.
[while leaving central perk]
mike: after you, miss banana hammock.
pheobe: thank you, mister bag.[woman enters and recognizes pheobe]
woman: oh hey, how are you?
pheobe: oh hi rita! good! [to mike] oh, rita's a massage client.
mike: oh, why don't you introduce me?
pheobe: er, rita, this is my husband.
mike: why don't you tell her my name?
pheobe: ok. this is my husband crap bag.
rita: crap bag?
mike: if you need an easy way to remember it, just think of a bag of crap.
"do you even know what a banana hammock is?"
"it's a funny word."
"it's a speedo."
