The only thing remotely good in that episode was Rachel in that dress. Other than that, the episode was horrible.

The best thing I loved about it was the black screen from 7:15 to 7:28. Yep, great episode. Good job local affiliate!!

that happened to you, too? I don't think the St. Louis station was out that long, but still, wtf?

to Rachel's dress

I actually liked the scene w/ Ross and Mike, particularly when Mike answered Ross's phone, that was pretty funny. and Joey and Chandler are still good together after all of these years.

Mine was also black out but not quite as long. It was from about 8:12 - 8:20, so about 3-5 minutes was commercials I'm sure. I also want to vote to see her more in that dress. Hell, I just as soon see her naked everything week.

Next week sounds pretty good: THE ONE WITH CHRISTMAS IN TULSA
Spoiler:
HO-HO-OKLAHOMA! -- When Chandler has to spend Christmas working on a deadline project in Tulsa, Monica suspects the worst when she discovers that he will be working with a beautiful co-worker (guest star Selma Blair, "Legally Blond") -- who was once the runnerup to Miss Oklahoma. Meanwhile, while toiling in Tulsa, Chandler recalls some of the more embarrassing moments from previous holidays shared with his "Friends."

Rachels dress was great. Phoebe talking to Mike on the phone was good, and the Mike and Ross stuff was decent.

The 10-15 second "black screen of death" happened in Boston too. Must have been the national feed?

Anyway, pretty standard episode. A couple of chuckles, but nothing great.

I didn't notice any black out. I might have missed the very beginning, or not have paid attention, but everything seemed fine for me.

It was an average episode. I can almost remember what it was like when "Must See TV" was actually "Must See"...

i got the blackout for about 4 or 5 minutes. I think most of it was during commercial break though. I didn't think it was a very funny episode. The part with ross and mike was funny at first, but got old quickly.

I got to see it a few hours earlier before it was on NBC. No blackouts for me.

No blackout for me. Got to see the dress in all of its glory for all of the time it was on the screen

This episode solidified this thought for me. If they do a spinoff for Joey, they have to have Chandler or somebody like that to play off of him. Joey is just so much better that way.

That dress reminded me of a better episode when she went to a restaurant wearing a slip

No blackout in DC - was some digital breakup at one point.

Ok episode, but really only had two laugh out loud moments for me:

When Phoebe was imitating Rachel
When Joey conked himself with the bat

Thus advancing my theory that Phoebe and Joey are the two best characters on the show.

ROSS sucks! They have SO run out of stupid ***** for him to do that they NOW have an episode where he SITS AROUND BORED for the whole show. I vote they get rid of Ross and replace him with Paul Rudd's Mike for the remainder of the series!
