I had no idea Lisa kudrow was on cheers, and Matthew Perry was on 902.0, but they both did pretty good from the small clips that I’ve seen. Aniston was on quantum leap too.

Discussion The reason I love Chandler and Monica so much

26 Upvotes

Every time I started a rerun, I always began from s4 finale or s5 premiere because I love Monica and Chandler so much.

It's really hard to see a relationship like this on screen. They don't have dramatic on-and-off. It's not a prince charming history. It's not "you have to overcome all the difficulties to get your Mr. Right" type of relationship. As in Monica's words "I think that we fell in love and we work hard at our relationship. Some days we work really hard. "

Their relationship is so real, to a level that you cannot believe this is a "sit-com" romance. Yes they have a dramatic beginning, but I suppose a lot of relationships have a kinda dramatic beginning. And they tried, they were very careful, they cared until they were sure about each other.

Also, when you think about these two characters, they have almost opposite traits. Chandler is afraid of commitment because his parents divorced, but his parents still love him very much, and he didn't need to compete for his parents' love because he is the only child. On the other hand, Monica's parents have a passionate and stable relationship for decades, which makes Monica crazy about marriage and babies. But her parents favor Ross, her mom downgraded her, so she had to compete for everything in her life, and she got OCD. Monica gave out her unconditional love to Chandler and always supported him, so Chandler felt safe to commit, he felt safe to say I love you. And Chandler is willing to change for Monica's OCD and lose to her. They are perfect for each other. You wouldn't realize that until you look back at their relationship. Even before London, they just fit, you know they can stay.

And looking back to S1-4, I feel like they are always in a situationship. They flirt, they cuddle, they hold hands, they comfort each other, they seek safety toward each other, they share secrets, they share everything. They are always there for each other.

Words fail me, I don't have enough words to describe how much I love Mondler. They are just so good, so romantic, so sweet.

Discussion Out of pocket plot line

2 Upvotes

It really bothers me that when going through the process of Monica and Chandler getting Joey to officiate their wedding, Phoebe casually says something to the extent of "imagine he found out who you actually wanted to hookup with that night" revealing that Monica wanted Chandlers best friend Joey, and Chandler wasnt even a thought process just a backup fling. Firstly as a man, i think due to awkwardness and embarrassment i would end it right there instead of just getting over it, and multiple friendships would be ruined for life. Secondly how is Phoebe not in trouble or held accountable even one bit?? Nobody says "Phoebe how could u say that, look what you've done" 😂. I just think its glazed over, for such a severe mental exchange

Rewatching the show for the millionth time (and first time as a Reddit user!)

Rachel is incredibly unlikeable in this episode, to the point it borders on freaking gross how much she wants to go in-between Ross and Emily. However, why is it the thing that is bothering me the most being that the fashion-forward person of the show, took a giant ass bag from New York to London and didn’t think to pack a freaking presentable outfit for the wedding of one of her best friends? She is so gross.

An example is during Season 9 and episode 15 when Ross and Phoebe are getting mugged and Ross says “I knew you be my death Phoebe Buffay. “

Does not have to be their actual correct name can include there alias.

Found this really old clip of Cox’s first episode doing family ties, it’s kind of funny how she was nervous about the audience reactions, but when she went out to do friends, she got like 10 years of experience with it so that’s kind of cool

(When Ross and Rachel come back from the pediatrician and are talking to Monica and Chandler)

It looks like two babies in the stroller?

Or is it just a baby and a blanket?

I know they used twins for Emma so maybe they were both in the stroller.

Discussion What’s an out-of-character line or action that you think was made just for a joke setup?

Post image
2.0k Upvotes

One that comes to mine for me is this one, where Rachel has sold her hairless cat to Gunther and Monica mistakes a raw chicken for it. It’s a funny joke, but ultimately very unrealistic that Rachel would have been defrosting a chicken…there are many other jokes throughout the series of Rachel either being a terrible cook or not cooking at all (in the episode where Ross and Rachel lock themselves out of their apartment and Emma is inside, Rachel is wondering if she left the stove on and Ross says something like “you haven’t cooked since 1995”).

Another is Monica’s messy hall closet, while funny it just feels outside of the realm of possibility.

Any other out of character moments used for a setup?

Continuing the series, which of the Gellers did Chandler like more before him and Monica got together? Him and Ross were college roommates, right, but he also had a pretty deep connection with Monica, so who would you say we’re closer?

Discussion The sweetest moment of the show

Thumbnail

269 Upvotes

I can watch Chandler and Monica fell in love and got married over and over again and again. These moments are just so sweet, they are just perfect for each other.

And it's just my opinion, but I think Ross and Rachel had more chemistry when they weren't a couple, especially after they broke up. It always gave me kind of a "Before Sunset" vibe.(I know it's a 22-year-old movie, but I will cap it Jesse and Celine met again in Paris in 9 years after they first met in Vienna in "Before Sunrise", and Jesse was married, Celine also got a boyfriend. They are both not sure how the other one feels and if they still had feelings, so they kept testing the water and they are so afraid to confess.)

Like the time when Ross couldn't find Emily, and Rachel told him she still loved him, and Ross just said"The thing is I am married." they suddenly realized something, but they just let it slip. And when they are getting divorced, Rachel said, "I did those things because I was in love with you." Ross replied "Yeah! Right! ... You're right. That's very different." and Rachel suddenly realized something.

Maybe it's just these moments that Rachel and Ross would still have chemistry.

What do you think is the sweetest moment of the show?
