Friends is so good that it is not terribly surprising that they have topped itself. Matt LeBlanc is so funny with that loveable comic charm. Friends has even managed to create a cliffhanger as huge as the Dynasty/Dallas years and given we won't see Friends because of the Olympics, they should change it from "must-see tv" to "can't wait to see tv".

EMMYS all around.

This episode has to be better than 812 in my opinion(which was mostly drama)! It was so hilarious! Phoebe likes Joey...she wanted him to look under her top...making believe it was something she always does...but maybe she's trying to get close to him. Rachel didn't show any "love" signs when she was with Joey. She just missed him as a roommate. Joey was so depressing to watch. The dog was a cutie!

Chandler's expressions were hilarious during the video. And Ross saying "the red one" was even funnier. Well...i think there's going to be a 9th season...it would be REALLY foolish for them to end it when they are at the top of their games!

This eppy was halarious!! My favorite lines of the eppy have to be "Rachel look" (Chandler) "What, did her ass explode!" (Rachel) and "Screw you guys, you don't have to do this" (Rachel to Monica and Chandler when they mention how beautiful the experience is). I laughed so hard I fell on the floor. The whole birthing video story was one of the funniest stories this season!! :o)

Definately! I was truly amazed. I actually sat for a few seconds after the show ended and thought..."wow...8 years and its better than ever..." Do you notice the funniest episodes are the "video" ones in this season(oh and TOW the Rumour) ? TOW the Videotape and TOW the Birthing Video...interesting...

I know they can't keep up this kind of incredible pace forever, but when will this end. ITA that this is the best season ever for FRIENDS.

On Fri, 8 Feb 2002, Filmkr27 stated this considered view. Waking from my doze, I hastily scrawled -

We may have to wait a while to see new episodes, but at least we avoid mid-season breaks!

What?? Is this a cliffhanger of more than just a week? Are we not gonna see a new ep next week??

That would be brilliant on the network's part; MURDER for us viewers!!!

Ohhhhhhhhh (and I'm answering my own post here......)----the OLYMPICS! That's right!! So it really IS a cliffhanger! :(

When will the next new episode air?

In three weeks, the olympics end Feb. 24th.

I'm making a guess/bet that the next new episode will have 35 million viewers since the last one was 29 right?

That's quite a lot of viewers, but I think you might be right. The "who shot JR" cliffhanger was the first real cliffhanger, and won something like 85 million views IIRC, and of course, virtually everyone was talking about that cliffhanger all summer long--on talk-shows, in the news. It was incredible.

They won't have time to hype Friends as much, given the short hang of three weeks, but it will surely bring in very good numbers.

Back in the 80's night-time soap operas became the new rage. There was "Dallas", the first I believe, followed most prominently by "Dynasty" and "Knot's Landing". JR Ewing ( Larry Hagman who played Tony Nelson on "I Dream of Jeanie") was the most prominent character from "Dallas". His character was the prime protagonist of the show, and people loved to hate him. In the season finale one year, someone shot JR, but nobody knew who. We had to wait until the new season the following fall to find out.

Now the disclaimers: I divulge this information without implying that *I* ever watched the show. Any assumption that I might be old enough to recall such details of Dallas or the other shows mentioned above is unsubstantiated. Furthermore, the rumor that I might recall original episodes of Gunsmoke airing in B&W are not acknowledged or implied.

That comment made me laugh so much...are you in good spirit cause someone took you up on that bet you were talking about last week?

Uh oh Dennis, senility has set in. Which bet was that? I hope I "got some" out of it, although I probably wouldn't remember it. Wait, no . . . THAT I *would* remember it happens so seldom.

David, I didn't want to refer to the bet in detail cause it's kind of a spoiler so read a couple lines down what I meant.. People that do not want to read the spoiler, please do not go any further please.

I was referring to the bet you mentioned you would make regarding Mona. You had said that you would bet that she would be gone in the next ep and you were right. I was just being silly and asking if anyone took you up on your bet offer regarding Mona's departure. Hope you remember it now David...lol

Ah yes, it all comes flooding back now. Although I got the departure of Mona right, my stock picks haven't done as well.

You don't suppose we might see Mona again in the future do you? Or did Ross really mess it up that badly? What am I saying? I'm an R&R fan. Still, I enjoyed the character while she was on.

No I don't think we will see her again but I didn't think we would see her again after the first ep of the season either. Now that the writers have 24 more episodes, nobody knows what they will do about R&R...They might keep them apart from a while so if it's not Mona, I'm pretty sure some other gal will show up and be Ross's gf.
