*This is the second to last episode of the series.

Thus making it the second most important event in the history of Western civilization!

(Don't worry, I'll be watching)

(Me too)

das

I was going to say "Fortunately, this is the second to last episode of the series.", but I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings after all of the bitching that went on the past week.

I'll definately be watching

Watching here too.

Kind of a spoiler just by seeing:

Courtney Cox looks FAT

It was okay, better than the last couple in my opinion.

Courtney's pregnant, IIRC.

I didn't think this episode was all that great. I only LOL once (when Joey is about to jump off the building after saying goodbye to Rachel).

Okay, the credits gag with Phoebe kicking Joey in the crotch after stuffing his crotch with styro-peanuts was funny.

if courtney isn't pregnant, she looks like shit....that outfit was horrendous, but it did seem to be something that would hide a bun in the oven.

overall a decent show....looking forward to seeing how the Ross/Rachel thing ends up. I'm guessing she stays....

one question, i've missed the last couple of episodes - is emma going with Rachel or staying with ross?

Emma is supposed to be going with Rachel.

Yes, Courtney's pregnant

Joey getting on the ledge was probably the funniest gag of the last couple of seasons

Can't believe next week is it.

oh and for a spoiler for next week. (this was in one of the entertainment magazines regarding the show "Joey" and the question was asked if any of the stars would be making any guest appierences.

Joey was the only redeeming part of this ep. Loved it when he abruptly got on the ledge after Rachel said bye. And I had a good chuckle when they were hitting his bubble-wrapped head - then he takes it off and his head was ringing. Phoebe kicking him in his peanut-packed crotch was good, too.

I haven't been able stand Monica for years and this episode reinforced why.

joey is the reason i watch the show!

well.. actually i watch because corrie always does.. but joey makes it funny

the balcony scene was great.. same with the bubblewrap

corrie actually felt the need to explain the coin toss thing to me.. as if that wasnt a trick we use to pull all the time back when we were kids!

and yes, c. cox is pregnant.. and they had a hell of a time trying to cover it up

showing her pregnant would have really made an odd plot twist.. thats for sure!

Pregnant Courtney looks quite a bit like almost-fat Monica.

Joey was hilarious......I was laughing out loud when he was on the balcony



Other than that not a very good episode....I was hoping it would be a lot better....heres hoping to next week being a LOT better

When a big, wowser whiz-bang moment is intended to be a shock ending to an episode (in this particular case, "the big kiss") its dramatic impact was somewhat lessened by having seen it during every commercial break for the past four days.

And it still ended up seeming contrived.

I actually missed the show tonight can someone give me a recap.

The semester's over now... so I'll be sure to watch next week.

Rachel says goodbye to everyone in her own way individually, with the exception of Ross, and this pushes him over the edge and he blows up on her. Later Rachel to go Ross's apartment and she confesses that Ross means to much to her that she couldn't bear the thought of saying goodbye to him. After some angry confused looks, Ross kisses Rachel, and then Rachel kisses Ross.

Also, the pregnant girl who's giving her baby to the Chandlers moves to the city for the impending delivery of the baby. She's put up in a nice hotel, and she went to a movie with a relative, came back after all of the goodbyes, she complained about pains in her stomach and Monica and Phoebe realize that the girl is in labor, so the Chandlers and the girl race to the hospital, and leave Joey and Phoebe to do the rest of the packing up of stuff for the Chandlers.

And Joey gets kicked in the nuts.
