My top 3 are: -

  • Adam Goldberg as Eddie Menuek, classic commedy
  • Paget Brewster as Kathy, hottest and nicest bird ever on Friends
  • Chandler's boss, great dialogue "Bing!" "Doug!"

Good luck!

I think Christina Applegate also deserves a mention. She was good as Rachel's sister.., I thought they should have given her more appearances.

Good luck!

Bruce Willis was the father of one of Ross's girlfriends, wasn't she? The student? When did Greg Kinnear appear on the show and in what character?

P.S. I still like Eddie the freaky roommate. I thought he was one of the funniest guest characters of the series, and I loved the way Chandler's character played off of him -- "Oh he's gone now . . . he's . . . he's . . . he's standing in the window holding a head! He's standing in the window holding a head!!!!" Too funny!

"Bird"?

I believe the term was used in "The Ugliest Girl in Town" circa 1968 or so, where someone becomes a fashion model so he can see his girlfriend who is in England. The show was sort of the predecessor to "Bossom Buddies". Certainly the term "bird" is from Swinging Londo of the Sixties.

I'm quite familiar with the fact that "bird" means "female." My virtual arched eyebrow is at someone using such a sexist term.

You think that's sexist?? In a time, where men in movies refer to their girlfriends as bitches?

He was only one once but Brad Pitt was pretty funny

I know that's common in rap music, but I've never seen a movie where I heard that, at least not to my recollection.

Anyway, just because there are worse words out there, doesn't mean it's not a derogatory term. That's like me saying you shouldn't get mad when I call you a jerk because at least I'm not calling you a f*ckwit. (Not that I AM calling you a jerk, just making an example.)

Anyway. Back to regularly scheduled topical discussion...

Bird is sexist? Dude I'm a girl and I use it a lot of the time when refering to friends or girls I know.

Never really thought of it as insulting
