O.K., great episode. Best one in the last two years in fact. And I have been extremely disappointed in this and last season. So, thumbs up here. I can only hope the last five episodes are this good. A few observations. Would have been nice if they brushed off the fake snow off people's heads during the wedding after it stopped snowing (heh). And speaking of heads, I can't tell you how I much I hate Jennifer Anniston's hair. The way she's always moving the right side of those bangs out of her eye. Just distracting and annoying. Minor gripe of course. Still find her cute

I really enjoyed it. Ross is without a doubt the funniest character on the show. I loved the reaction to his not being in the wedding "It's a wedding...I HAVE to be in it!" hahahaha....

I must be in the minority, but I didn't care for this episode at all. I don't know what it is...but this show has run its course as far as I'm concerned.

I'll have to agree. Monica continues to grow more and more annoying. Chandler has gone from being hysterical to just m'eh.

At first, I was looking forward to a Joey spin-off. The last couple episodes have me changing my mind.

I'll be there for the end, but I'm glad it's ending.

Loved it. Hilarious ep.

If I didn't like the show, I wouldn't watch it.

I'm really sorry it's ending.

It was just too forced. They rarely mention the wedding and then after a nearly 2 month hitaus have a bachelorette party for Phoebe and then the next episode she getting married and everything has been planned for without any setup?

It was ok. I liked last weeks more.

A few funny lines from the guys but that was about it.

Courteney Cox is really starting to show.

Agreed. Last week's was a great episode - easily the best this year. Tonight's was very boring from start to finish. Not many funny moments and it felt like they forced the emotional moment on us. We hardly know the new husband (Mike? I don't even remember his name - that's an obvious indication) and didn't see the relationship grow. It was a forced way to end the storyline of one of the characters.

Well, while I'll agree this show has run it's course, and should have ended a couple of years ago, tonight's episode was classic "Friends" compared to anything shown in the last two seasons IMO.

Yeah, it's not like he's been in a ton of episodes, with episodes about things like meeting his parents and moving in with Phoebe.

Oh wait...there has been a ton of episodes with him. Strange you can't remember his name.

I thought it was a great episode. I was LMAO.

Anyone know the song that was playing while Phoebe walked down the aisle? It sounded familiar. (And no, it wasn't the Wedding March, although they did play a little of that at the end of the episode)

I think it was Elvis's "Can't Help Falling in Love with You" or whatever the title is.

It was actually "Here, There and Everywhere" by the Beatles. Good arrangement too. I liked last week's better, but this ep had its moments. Hated the way they wrote Monica's character. I mean, THAT was very UN-"Friend"ly if you know what I mean.

This may have been the first episode of "Friends" I've seen without a single laugh. Not even a smile. I hated them all tonight.

Just so everyone can be happy, "Can't Help Falling in Love" was playing when the wedding party walked down the aisle; when Phoebe walked down the aisle, they played "Here, There and Everywhere."

It's a little late for the show to jump the shark, since it's already slated to end in a few episodes.

"Thanks for the honeymoon advice, not like that was uncomfortable."

While I enjoyed the ep, it wasn't the best. Monica's obsessive compulsive behavior is grating. I'm really starting to think she's over the top.

"Are you still crying about your damn baby?"

the only thing I liked about the episode was the actual wedding setting.

It was perfect for Phoebe totally her.

Perfect.

It was a nice wedding. But that's all the nice stuff that I can say about this episode.
