One of the best.
garfieldfan_x30 October 2012
This episode follows 3 Stories. Chandler- trying to get rid of Janice. This is one of chandlers best episodes in the series. Its super funny the issues that arise when he tries to break up with her. Ross- rugby. Ross tries to prove he's tough by playing rugby. Absolutely hilarious. Monica- trying to figure out the light switch. This one I was less fond of. I get that she's obsessive, but aside from something joey does, its not that funny in this episode. This storyline is the only reason I didn't give the episode a 10. The other 3 characters just supported the 3 main stories and were very funny. Overall One of the best episodes barring the Monica story. 9/10.

The One with All the Rugby

This is a pretty amusing episode. I loved Chandler and Janice! How he was trying to get rid of her and ended up going to Yemen. When she was with him at the airport with the address (Yemen str. in Yemen) and he ended up having to actually go to Yemen. This was just too great. I was only a bit upset that he didn't like her so much anymore. Would be great if they continued dating because more Janice on the should would be better. She is a great character

Ross playing Rugby was a good storyas well. Ross trying to go "Red Ross", and how he was jumping into the crowd. I also liked how they were watching rugby on TV and Ross said he will be the guy on the side and that guy ended up being run over.

The usual

Great episode aside from the cringing voice of Helen Baxendale. As a Brit I find her weird deep then light voice embarrassing. Did the producers owe someone in the UK a favour? We have so many better suited actresses for this role. No wonder she was written out.

The One Where Chandler Goes To Yemen

Chandler goes to get his nails done with Rachel and they bump into Janice at the nail studio. Janice is divorced and Chandler goes out with her even though he finds her very annoying. Emily's English friends invite Ross to play rugby with them and Ross says yes to impress Emily. Chandler can't break up with Janice so he tells her he is being transferred to Yemen the following day. Unfortunately, Janice helps Chandler pack and goes to the airport with him. Chandler has to buy a ticket to Yemen. Ross is playing rugby and he isn't tough enough for the game but enjoys himself despite his injuries once he is able to hurt the other players as well. Chandler actually leaves for Yemen.

Red Ross

This is a fun episode, and one that allows Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer to play to their respective strengths.

It's always nice to have Maggie Wheeler back as Janice, and although it feels a bit of a rehash for Chandler to struggle to try to break up with her, the Yemen spin on it makes it very funny. The interaction between Matt Le Blanc and Wheeler was also good.

Ross playing rugby in order to try to impress Emily also makes for an interesting story line, with Schwimmer showing what a good physical comedian he is.

A good episode from the fourth series of the much loved show.

Rugby, OCD, Yemen

Chandler goes with Rachel to get their nails done. There, he meets Janice again after remembering how her nails look.

I love Jennifer's coat with the fur and her crossbody black bag and the second bag over it. She wears two shoulder bags.

Ross walks in the dark with the girl and she wonders about the NYC danger stories. Ross is invited to Rugby.

Chandler ends up packing to keep up with the lie and buys a ticket to Yemen. Janice follow him all the way.
