Friends has had so many famous guest stars on the show that there's too many to count. What's your favorite guest star? Just curious.

Mine most recently would probably be Brad Pitt in the S8 Thanksgiving episode, he was hilarious pretending to hate his real-life wife Jennifer Aniston. Bruce Willis and Reese Witherspoon (both S6) also come to mind. Tom Selleck (S2) also was great. There are many others which I can't think of right now.

P.S. Of course, the funniest (and most annoying) not-so-famous guest star has to be woman playing "Oh-my-god" Janice (what's her name?). She pops up when you least expect it, most recently in the very good S8 finale.

Hi Frank,

Winona Ryder was great! As an ex-college-friend she had a crush on Rachel and she and Rachel shared a kiss on college. A very funny episode. :-)

One of my favourites, too. But also the short appearance of Billy Crystal and Robin Williams in the "Central Perk".

Nah I didnt like Brad Pitt in that episode I thought he was really wooden as a comedy actor. Tom Selleck was good and of course Janice I also thought Noah Wyle an George Clooney were good.

Isn't Brad Pitt wooden as *any* kind of actor?

I liked Tom Selleck; I thought he and Courteney Cox actually had more screen chemistry than she does with Matthew Perry. I also thought Witherspoon was very good.

Overdosed on Teletubbies, [email] thought it'd be a good idea to post this:

uuuuhh, we'll have none of that while I'm around here :) Go watch Fight Club, then tell me he is a wooden actor. Of course Edward Norton owns that film, but Pitt's performance is brilliant as well

Christine Taylor (Bonnie in 324 and 325) And Janice off course :)

Donna My opinions might have changed, but not the fact that I am right.

I thought the Gary Oldham spot was good. Bruce Willis is always good on the show.

My nominee for the worst guest star would be the Sean Penn episode. I've always enjoyed Sean in a movie but I thought his part in the Friends show (as Ursala's boyfriend) was poorly written and didn't give him much to do.

Maggie Wheeler, I think.

Janice is of course the all-time winner, but let's not forget Marcel. I guess Ursula, Ugly Naked Guy, and Mr Heckles don't count.

I would have to go with Reese Witherspoon, Hank Azaria and Brad Pitt. All of them were hilarious.

Chrissie Hynde - the part where she sings Smelly Cat with Pheobe is really funny

Yeah, but I much prefer the lovely mood piece, where she sings "Angel of the Morning", while Rachel sadly looks out of the window at a quiet Phoebe sitting on the kerb, counting what few dollars she has earned.

I liked Julia Roberts in one of the earlier seasons! The one where she left Chandler with nothing but her panties on at a restaurants toillet!
