Kenny the copy guy

and turning up at the second interview with her mouth full of ink, I'd forgotten about that one sorry, but in any case she still seems to be the most suited of the group to give interview tips, which is not saying much considering what she was up against

It should've been Rachel who had successfully climbed the corporate ladder going from being a waitress in S2 to having her own office and a PA in S7 but she probably had some Ross related drama to attend to in that episode

She actually says she's good with parents in general, meaning she knows how to behave in the company of civilised people whatever their social status, I wouldn't say my parents rich or stuffy but if the first time I turned up home with my wife she had talked about having sailor sex with me, punched my dad and puked in a cupboard they wouldn't of encouraged me to pursue the relationship. I've said it before but something that bugs me is that a few episodes earlier they had Phoebe coaching Chandler for a job interview. Maybe the writers were trying to imply that Phoebe was an alcoholic who was generally OK in the mornings but you couldn't count on her being presentable after 6 pm

I completely agree on this, I believe the writers wanted to prove that Monica and Ross had a very close relationship and apart from siblings they were also friends but they were far too open about their sex lives in front of each other, much more than I would be in front of any of my female (or even male) friends never mind my sister. I think they realized about this and it seemed to improve in later seasons, I think the penny dropped after having Monica get excited imagining her brother having sex in the TOWT free porn as early on in the next season they seemed to lampshade this with Danny and his sister, after that things seem to be more normal, with things like Ross freaking out when he sees Monica and Chandler kissing or being made unconformable when Monica bursts into the room asking Chandler to have sex with him when she's trying to conceive. However, they still had incest jokes played for laughs, topping them with Ross mistakenly kissing fat Monica, which was come to think of it an act of genius on the writers part considering that the people who like incest jokes would probably also find fat shaming funny.

I'm re watching season 2 right now and must say I hate how Chandler and Joey are made to act like 5 year olds when Carol breastfeeds in front of them in TOWT breast milk

The whole setting was too outlandish, for starters I seem to remember CCTV cameras being commonplace in public spaces in the mid nineties so by doing it in the planetarium or in a display would've entailed putting on an avant la lettre webcam show for the security guard that night. However I do think Ross and Rachel had the worst work ethics out of all the friends, off the top of my head apart from the museum incident between them they; harassed colleagues for a sandwich, slept with a student, hired somebody for his looks and proceeded to have an affair with him while being his boss, lied to her boss about having an affair with Calvin Klein, falsely accused her boss about trying to buy her baby and used stolen museum property to bribe said boss to give Rachel her job back.

Having a throng of people hanging around a maternity ward was one of those sitcom tropes, in real life labor lasts hours/days and new mothers aren't usually that keen to make small talk with a bunch of family members/in-laws/friends/neighbors/work colleagues the moment after they've given birth

By being Italian he was automatically supposed to be exotic and glamorous. This is one of those instances in which we are reminded that Friends happened in an alternative universe in which foreigners were a rare thing in NYC during the nineties and Italians settled in Manhattan neither speak or understand a word of English

And that this jealousy is so inconsistent, neither seem to care about the other going out with Tag, Mona, Joshua, Danny or Charly. Also I would've liked to see more of Gavin, he was definitely much a better suit for Rachel than Joey was and they wouldn't of had to dumb Rachel down to make it believable, thinking of how they made her chuckle at "homo" makes me cringe.

You're completely right, guess it's time to re-watch the first couple of season's Phoebe would be at the bottom of my list and Chandler and Rachel at the top, I have trouble deciding where to put the other three, it depends a lot on the season and episode. Judging from the sounds she makes one wonders what kind of "massage" she'd been getting

Not really the same job, he worked for the same company but was promoted, he started working in a cubicle and ended up in a corner office with a view and a personal assistant, even if he had been promoted internally he must have been interviewed at some point, of course Doug was his boss for a few years during this period and he seemed like the type of guy not to be put off by poo jokes. Nothing beats splitting hairs about a side story of an episode of a show that ended fifteen years ago!

The fact that they had Phoebe coaching him has always annoyed me as she had been repeatedly shown to be socially inept, what kind of person would take her advice on this front? Probably those who are prone to make scatological jokes in an interview.... Let's completely forget that by that point Chandler had a more than a decade long successful career in the corporate world and he had probably nailed a few interviews along the way.

Hi, long time lurker and first time poster wanting to share a thought about the Ross-Rachel breakup. Not only was Ross a total jerk towards Rachel after she started working but the "let's take a break from us" line from Rachel was something she spurted out in the heat of a discussion and the mature thing for Ross would've been to leave, let things cool down and resume the conversation later to see if she really felt that way, instead he took it as a license to go and sleep with whoever he fancied. I do however think Ross was right about Mark's intentions as he was trying sabotage Rachel's relationship in a passive aggressive way and inviting himself over to Rachel's in the middle of what he should've known was a bad fight and raising his voice when he knew Ross was on the phone was really creepy move. This is not however an excuse for him not trusting his girlfriend to not jump into bed with any man that's attracted to her. Also, jumping into bed with the first girl you meet is not what normal men, however immature, do the night their heart get's broken, I am a man, I've had my heart broken and wanting revenge sex only comes after a few weeks of crying...
