A Definitive Ranking Of The 'Friends' Characters
NBC//Friends

"Friends" is one of those TV shows that are timeless, and universally relatable. There is something so familiar about the cast of friends, and after watching every episode countless times, I have to pay tribute to my absolute favorite characters, and provide explanations for the other characters I love, just not as much.

6. Phoebe.

She is, hands down, the quirkiest character in the friend group. I do love Phoebe, but there are so many cringey moments throughout the seasons that land her the #6 spot on my list. She also gets marks off for never ending up with Joey.

5. Ross.

It hurts me to rank Ross so low on this list, but I have such a love/hate relationship with him. He always cracks me up, and I can relate to his breakdowns, but he can be so annoying and obnoxious.

4. Joey.

Joey is just a little too ditzy for me. I know that Joey is supposed to be an oblivious character, which adds to his charm, but I don't have that much patience for him. He does have breakthrough moments where he is so sweet and genuine, and that is the Joey I love.

3. Rachel.

In the earlier seasons, I hated Rachel. I thought that she was such a snob, as her character was intended to be, and I was always annoyed at how she worked minimally to get what she wants. Throughout the seasons, Rachel grows into such an independent, hard-working woman, and I love her for that.

2. Monica.

Maybe I'm biased with this ranking, because I related to Monica so much. She does her thing, and doesn't let anyone give her shit for it. I love Monica, and how eccentric she can be. She is so organized and I aspire to be as prepared as her, all the time. Though she is so structured, it is so fun to see her let loose and have fun.

1. Chandler.

The number one spot goes to Chandler. He is so lovable and goofy, which makes him adorable. He's a genuinely nice guy, which makes him so easy to root for throughout the show. He is hilarious and witty, and I only aspire to have comebacks as solid as his.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
