Friends 2/26

Daytripper · 02-26-04, 08:00 PM

Now that's what I'm talking about. Best "Friends" in years. It's almost like the clock was turned back.

Crap bag

The scenes with Joey and The Bings at their new house were funny.

Didn't care for the Ross/Rachel stuff again.

mrcoaster · 02-26-04, 09:17 PM

Yeah, that was definitely one of the funnier eps I've seen in a while. Joey's stuff was good and I couldn't stop laughing at "Crap Bag."

SuperJim88 · 02-26-04, 10:05 PM

It's interesting that NBC didn't run the promo with "guest starring, Dakota Fanning!!"

thegame370 · 02-26-04, 10:18 PM

Well i know Joey isnt too smart but sometimes they make his character seem incredibly moronic. I think the past 2-3 episodes he hasnt been the least bit funny and surprisingly whenever hes on screen, the laugh meter drops a few.
The rest was cool tho, and u gotta love that Dakota Fanning, she did better acting than everyone in that episode!

Achtung · 02-26-04, 10:20 PM

Pleasant surprise to see Dakota, she did a great job. "Crap bag" was hilarious too.

Joey: Eww, I'm not gonna convince him to do that!

fumanstan · 02-26-04, 10:50 PM

Whose Dakota Fanning?

Crap Bag was the funniest thing i've heard in a long time.

TabascoKid · 02-26-04, 10:56 PM

Definitely the best Friends in quite some time. I laughed my head off at Crap Bag and Princess Consuela BananaHammock

It's 7 years ago! Chandler's time machine worked!

I was literally on the floor when Chandler said that. If they can keep it at this level upto the finale, this is an awesome way to say farewell.

I loved Princes whatever-it-was Banana Hanger

He is 55 years old. Younger tha Arnold who is 57.

"You KNOW I'm afraid of little girl ghosts!"

Funny episode. I love Mike's droll sense of humor, it's best when he's reacting to the insanity of others.

"Gunther! Six glasses!"
"You want ME to join you?"
"Oh, I thought Joey was here. Five glasses will be fine."

Even the audience was like awwww.

I'm not sure, but I don't think it's even legal to fire someone just because they're interviewing for another job. I may be wrong.

Princess Consuela Bananahammock.

emachine12 · 02-27-04, 02:26 AM

What amazed in this episode is that they not only referenced 7 years ago...

But when Chandler and Monica were engaged, they talked about buying a home WITH A ROOM FOR JOEY.

And now with the series ending...Chandler and Monica are buying a home WITH A ROOM FOR JOEY!

I also loved:

"You do know what a banana hammock is? A speedo."

She got fired for not being a "team player". I guess he basically explained why she wasn't on the same page as everyone else. Which basically was getting canned for interviewing but there's nothing she can do about it.

Chew · 02-27-04, 06:52 AM

Good grief did Spiner look old.

I certainly hope the spin-off fleshes out Joey more. Lately, all of his jokes have come from his stupidity. That's not going to fly for long when he's the center of the show.

Michael Corvin · 02-27-04, 07:58 AM

Not much to say that hasn't already been said.

"A little heads up would have been nice!"

Strafe · 02-27-04, 08:11 AM

"There was a little girl who lived here but she DIED 30 years ago"

I knew that was coming but I still think it was clever.

This was a GREAT episode of Friends! Probably the best I've seen in 3 years or so.

I think this calls for a bottle of Israel's finest!!

Jray · 02-27-04, 08:59 AM

I agree with everything said - this episode was hilarious. That little girl was quite a good actor. What else are we supposed to know her from? I've never heard that name before.

The first time I heard Bananahammock I was

Patman · 02-27-04, 09:02 AM

I was hoping Phoebe's hubby would have used "bananafofana" for his new last name.
