No way. He had some great lines.

Agree, he (& Joey) were the best characters and had the best lines imo. Especially when they were 'roomies'.

Chandler: "All right, look if you absolutely have to tell her the truth, at least wait until the timing's right. And that's what deathbeds are for."

C: "Ah, I got her machine."
joey: "Her answering machine?"
C: "No, no, interestingly enough her leaf blower picked up!"

One of my favourite ever sitcom lines.

A brilliant double act, no doubt.

Two of my favourites:

[Rachel gets a Dr. Seuss book, Oh, the Places You'll Go!, from Joey.]

Joey: That book got me through some tough times.
Melanie: [admiringly] There is a little child inside this man.
Chandler: Yes — the doctors say if they remove it, he'll die.

And...

[Joey suggests a tailor to Chandler.]

Joey: He did my first suit when I was 15. No, wait... 16. No... 'scuse me, 15. Alright, when was 1990?
Chandler: Okay. You have to stop the Q-tip when there's resistance!

Laughing out loud Didn't it turn out that Joey had been felt up by his tailor? As Chandler found out, I believe.

"Isn't that how they make pants?"
Ross: Yes, yes it is . . . In PRISON!!

Friends at it's very best.

hahaha Yeah, brilliant.

Joey trying to look like a 19 year old.

Joey: Am I 19 or what?

Chandler: On a scale of 1 to 10. 10 being the dumbest a person can look, yes you are definitely 19.

You guys know there's going to be a Friends film yep?

The show jumped the shark a bit with the 'Joey luvs Rachel' storyline, but picked up in the last series with one of the best sitcom episodes around - slapstick on a par with that Only Fools and Horses clip that they keep showing where Del Boy falls through the bar.

No, cool. Let's hope they haven't left it too late.

Actually, there isn't. It was denied by reps or something.

:(

The thing is when I watch Friends now it's beginning to look dated. Whereas Frazier still stands the test of time. And this is coming from someone who was and still am, a Friends fan.

I don't know perhaps I've OD on it.

'ate it

Aaron as a BSG bigwig it is your professional duty to watch all 77 series you haven't yet seen by midnight Sunday

and a three-page essay would be nice

Yeah, but this isn't the ASG or the WSG.

Although I do follow the WSG.

But that's another thing entirely.

Ah, point taken.

Is there a WSG?

Welsh Sitcom Guide? Gavin and Stacey etc?
