I really enjoyed this episode, Bruce Willis was excelant. I probably would have enjoyed it more if i wasn't half asleep cause of all thosse cough drops I had! I had colds!

Ok there was 3 Main storylines. One was Joey wanting to get put up on the wall of fame at the dry cleaners. Two was Monica making reservations at this musuem just in case. Last, was Ross going up to the cabin with elizabeth when Paul and Rachel ended up there.

Ok the first story with Joey, wasn't that great. It was ok. Better than the twin story. He went to the dry cleaners to see if the guy would put his picture up and he said no because he thought his show was offensive to .... <after viewing the tape> because they were always the bad guys. So he decided to try to butter him up again by bringing lots of clothes to be dry cleaned, and found the women there could get his pic up there too. So he was hitting on her. She put his pic there and he came in and saw SOB written on it. He asked why and the guy said because he went out with his wife. Then Joey realized that the girl was his wife, and Joey and Phoebe ran out of there!

Two, I really enjoyed this storyline with C&M this week. I thought Monica was being so sweet and sensetive, we haven't seen her being like this in awhile. Also, the shocker at the end! If I didn't hear about the ring on this ng, it would have been more of one!

Monica went to a Musuem with Rachel and Pheobe and found out that they had weddings there, and it was really beautiful. So Rachel said why not put her name on it just in case because there is a 2 year waiting list. So they finally convinced Monica to do this. Then the women from the musuem calls their house when Monica isn't home and Chandler finds out that she made reservations for their wedding and flips. When Monica came home Chandler said that she shouldn't make plans for something that hasn't been asked or that he hasn't gotten a chance to ask yet, and runs out. Monica hears the message on the machine and finds out that Chandler found out about the wedding reservations, and gets really worried. She knows how he flips out about this stuff and feels bad about making him feel pressured. She looks for him all over but can't find him. Then he comes home and she tells him that she doesn't mean to pressure him and it means nothing, he says do you really mean that, and that he is happy that she does. He says he just isnt ready. THEN, Monica leaves, and Pheobe bursts out of the room and says did she buy it. He says yes, I can't believe I'm going to ask her to marry me!

He said that so sweetly it made me want to cry! But me being all dead inside today....can't show any emotions at all, I'm a vegetable I swear!

Then the third storyline was really funny also. Paul forbid Ross from seeing Elizabeth and threatened to turn him in to the University if he did. But Ross and Elizabeth go up to the cabin anyway. While Elizabeth is going to get condoms Paul and Rachel come in, and Ross hides. Rachel sees him under the couch and deverts Paul a few times to get Ross hidden better. (sorry cutting this short cause its..11:17) Then Ross ends up seeing Paul talking to himself in the mirror! That scene was hilarious! Paul ends up catcing Ross trying to go out the window and says tahts it now he's going to turn him in. But then Ross says I'm just like you I still have it, (and the other stuff) and does the same dance that Paul did. Paul relizes and all of the sudden becomes his buddy!

That was hilarious! I thought BW was great in this episode!!

All for now, ~Act

Yeah, I thought BW was pretty good in this one. I've gone back to watching Moonlighting on cable this past week, and I noticed how free he used to be on TV, and then I remembered how awkward he looked last week. This week he seemed really at ease. It's been a long time since I had enjoyed a Ross story line, but last night was great. It reminded me of the comedy of errors on a Frasier episode, or something.

I was a bit tired of the C&M story line, but this is good because it shows that there is some movement. I know there is some question as to how the end game will play out (contract negotiations, etc.), but at least the writers are moving forward. I was surprised to see how easily and quickly Chandler gave in. I would have expected it to be a little more awkward for a few episodes, but I guess they have to finish it up in May. It was nice to see Monica concerned about his feelings.

I agree, Joey's story line was pretty thin, but at least the rest of the episode held up. In all, it was one of the better ones I have seen in a while.

It's right up there with last week. This is one of the best C&M storylines in a while, since TOW Chandler can't cry. Even though I really liked last weeks. For once we got to see some of their conflicts with living with each other that I've been waiting for, I wonder if they have been reading the ng.

I hope they have been reading the NG. Then maybe MP will lose some weight, CCA will gain some weight, etc...

Seriously, though, I think they should focus more on the living together situation. It's really convenient how they move in together, but you don't see any of the adjustment that either has to make. Remember when Joey moved out, they really focused on the emotional problems of how much Joey missed Chandler, especially when he got fired. But here, it's just like they moved in and, "Whoa...whoa...life's going on like normal!" There isn't even any residual animosity by Rachel after being ousted. I know if my roommate did that to me, no matter how happy I was for him, I'd still be pretty upset.

they showed that a little bit in TO on the last night, but they could have shown it more in other episodes. They finally showed what was going on in the daily life of Monica and chandler living together in 621. We got something at least. But then people complain when we do get that stuff.. so.. But they could have showed more with Rachel and Joey..

Considering Rachel sort of moved herself in at the beginning.... 6 years ago.. it was only fair that when and if Monica got together with someone the flat was hers...... I understand it was unfair on Rachel.. but she and Phoebe living together was quite funny.. and you can't have roomates for ever.. people need to settle down, start becomming middle aged etc etc...... the whole gang must be at least 31 when season 6 is over. Apart from Ross (whose situation was not how he planned at all) the others are still acting almost like they'd just left university into their first job.... these people want marriage and kids right ? Monica certainly wants both, and I think Rahel would like too. I'm not sure about Phoebe.. she never really expresses much about it.. and since Gary she hasn;t really had anyone... (apart from Joey whose wild ways will need to be slightly tammed for any long standing relationship)

oh by the way.. has Joey ever had a relationship that has lasted more than four episodes ??

ActiviaHelena

What about what's her name...argh TO he was with in TOW the routine..his roomate.

I can't think of her name right now.

Well it was before the show started, but he did go out with a woman called Angela Delveccio for three years.

On Mon, 8 May 2000, Scott Andrew stated this considered view. Waking from my doze, I hastily scrawled -

Knowing Joey, I doubt that was the ONLY girl he was seeing during that time though!
