The 20 Best 'Friends' Episodes

"Friends"is arguably one of the best shows ever on television. The Award-winning show has everything: laughter, heart, fantastically relatable characters, and originality. Everyone who has watched this show has ended up wanting to be a part of it. While "Friends" stayed consistently top-notch through all 10 seasons that it aired, some episodes stood out above the rest. Here is my list of what are, in my opinion, the two best episodes from each season:

Season 1

Episode 1: Pilot/The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate

"Welcome to the real world. It sucks. You're gonna love it."

Episode 18: The One with All the Poker

"Your money is mine, Green." "Your fly is open, Geller."

Season 2

Episode 5: The One with the Prom Video

The wonderful first time we got to see Monica in her fat phase. Courtney Cox rocks the fat suit.

Episode 7: The One Where Ross Finds Out

As important as the 'pivotal' moment when Ross discovers Rachel's feelings for him is, my favorite part of this episode is Monica making Chandler work out with her.

Season 3

Episode 6: The One with the Flashback

A fun glimpse into the lives of the six friends a year before Rachel moved in with Monica.

Episode 21: The One with the Chick and the Duck

So many great Chandler/Joey moments in this one.

Season 4

Episode 1: The One with the Jellyfish

"She's my friend and she needed help! If I had to, I'd pee on any one of you!"

Episode 12: The One with the Embryos

"Actually, it's Miss Chanandler Bong."

Season 5

Episode 8: The One with All the Thanksgivings

Chandler and Ross's outfits make this episode so special, plus the glimpse into the first interactions between Monica and Chandler.

Episode 14: The One Where Everybody Finds Out

"They don't know we know they know we know!"

Season 6

Episode 9: The One Where Ross Got High

"...That's a lot of information to get in 30 seconds." This episode features the best of Monica and Ross's parents, plus highlights their brother/sister dynamic in a hilarious way.

Episode 10: The One with the Routine

The gif really says it all here.

Season 7

Episode 3: The One with Phoebe’s Cookies

"Who names their boat 'Coast Guard,' anyway?"

Episode 10: The One with the Holiday Armadillo

"What are you doing here...weird turtle man?"

Season 8

Episode 4: The One with the Videotape

All the damage caused by the magic story made up by "Ken Adams."

Episode 6: The One with the Rumor

Brad Pitt's cameo as Rachel's former classmate Will and founder of the "I Hate Rachel Club" while he was married to Jennifer Aniston is possibly the best guest star in all 10 seasons of the show.

Season 9

Episode 3: The One with the Pediatrician

The best blind date to ever exist.

Episode 13: The One Where Monica Sings

Monica being Monica. Plus, Joey's eyebrows.

Season 10

Episode 12: The One with Phoebe’s Wedding

"When I was growing up, I didn't have a normal mom and dad, or a regular family like everybody else. And I always knew that something was missing. But now I'm standing here today knowing that I have everything that I'm ever gonna need. You are my family." Tears.

Episode 14: The One with Princess Consuela

Phoebe learns you can change your name to anything you want, but maybe shouldn't.

Plus essentially every two-part season finale, especially Season 5: The One in Vegas, Season 7: The One with Chandler and Monica’s Wedding, and Season 9: The One in Barbados. So basically every important wedding and trip.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
