The One with the Boobies
ComedyFan201010 June 2011
Warning: Spoilers
In this episode we get to know more parents. This time Joey's. His father cheating on his mother upsets Joey and he wonders if he will be like too. Which is interesting to see how Joey's character changed later. In the first seasons he was thinking more about such things

We also get a preview of Chandler's dad when he says that if he turns out like his parents he will be either an "alcoholic blonde chasing 20 year old boys or like his mom"

While the cheating dad thing wasn't too funny, the episode was definitely good thanks to the whole boobies story, and Phoebe's analytical boyfriend who I really wish would have appeared in more episodes, but I guess they couldn't have done much more with it

The ending cracked me up xD. Monica surely wished she didn't seen it.

My Favourite Episode Of Season One
slightlymad2223 November 2014
After meeting both Ross and Monica's parents and then Chandlers mother earlier in the first season, it's Joeys turn to have his parents turn up.

Plot In A Paragraph: Joey's Dad is in town and a secret is revealed that troubles Joey. Pheobe is dating a psychiatrist who managed to upset almost the entire group by analysing them. And Rachel is furious when Chandler accidentally sees her boobs.

My favourite episode of the first season so far. The whole "tit for tat" running joke was very funny.

We also see some serious bonding when they share a bed.

I enjoyed Fisher Stevens as Roger, Pheobe's boyfriend. And really feel they could have kept him round a bit longer. Robert Costanzo is fun as Joey's Dad, Lee Garlington was OK as Ronnie and Brenda Vaccaro as fine as Gloria Tribbiani.

Joey stays disappointed when he discovers that his father is having an affair with a woman called Ronni( the pet mortician!). He then tries to convince his father to break up with her, since he thinks he is not respecting his mother.

The One With Parenting
devashishparnami6 February 2018
Warning: Spoilers
This is an absolutely amazing episode with Joey acting like a father to his father. Some dialogues are just to hilarious. Phoebe is dating this psychologist or someone who makes everyone's life analyses and makes them feel bad about themselves. Joey's father comes to visit him and their scenes are just too too amazing. There is even an uncalled revenge for the private parts which keeps becoming more funny incident by incident.

The One With The Mistress...
taylorkingston23 July 2015
Warning: Spoilers
I really love this episode. It's so funny and entertaining. I think it's one of my all-time favorite Season 1 episodes.

In this episode, Joey discovers that his Dad has a mistress, and has been with her for years. He is even more shocked when he finds out that his Mother knew. How horrible is that? By the way, they're still married. Meanwhile, Chandler accidentally walks in on Rachel when she is changing, and catches a glimpse of her breasts, hence the title of the episode, "The One With The Boobies". So, she tries to even the score, but instead of walking in on Chandler in the shower, she accidentally walks in on Joey in the shower. And Phoebe starts dating a shrink, which annoys the gang, since he is saying very hurtful, but true things about their personalities.

Best part of the episode: When Chandler says "boobies".

Worst part of the episode: Ross.

Overall I give this episode a 10 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Freaking Ridonkulous.

Comes out hot! Then fizzle
jpapanone22 July 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I usually start off with a 7 rating...and either go up or down from there.

Unless there are other things I factor in.

So....starts off strong with Rachel's boobies.

1st scene with Fisher Steven's, solid.

Then Joey's dad shows up at coffee shop...solid.

Back at Joey's apartment....fine.

Monica's apartment. What? What?!

Some fun stuff.

Oh look...it's the woman we ordered.

So...this starts off good....then sort of slows down.

So if it started off at 7, then got to 8....it came back down to 7.

Misogynist BS
lynpalmer122 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The very idea of a woman happy her husband has been having an affair for 6 years because it means he's nicer to her Is misogynistic B.S. in the real world she would have kicked his ass to the curb years ago, unless she was totally lacking in self respect.
