Friends 4/4
Best clip show ever! Seriously, Joey is the funniest actor on the show. This clip show had a lot of his good spots and the plot itself was good.

i can't not watch tv.
clip shows suck cuz they are basically a rerun in a nice package. they usually do show a lot of the best scenes from reruns but they are still basically a rerun when you were expecting a new episode

I understand that they are reruns kinda, but, to use your word, i like it in the "nice package" of the best scenes.

Usually, I don't like clip shows (cheap reason to air a new episode IMO). However, this was one of the better ones I've seen. 
The whole gay segment was hilarious!

I don't like clip shows either. That's me. And I took your advice and turned the tv off and read until ER came on.

As to tonight's ep - normally I agree that clip shows are a cop out. Unless I'm expecting some sort of retrospective show, I find clip shows to be wholly unsatisfying since I was expecting all new material. That being said - tonights ep was funny and well done, and the best "filler" show I've seen in a long while.

It must've taken a whole 15 minutes to write this episode. Absolute laziness. Oh well, at least it featured Joey.
FYI: The complete first season of Friends comes out on April 30. I'd suggest preordering the set early so you don't have to pay some outrageous price.

Can someone give me a synopsis of the non-clip part of the show?
Honk!

Spoiler:
Overall I enjoyed it - was it just me or were some of the clips FROM old episodes but were deleted scenes? I don't remember Ross, Joey and Chandler playing in the fort with Chandler dresses as a prarie girl...

As a rule I enjoy clip shows, as I seldom watch re-runs, and joey is a good one to base a clip show on so props to the producers.
I do agree however that clip shows are a cop-out on the part of the writers..

When Ross moved in with them, I think that was the scene that played over the end credits.
