Friends (TV Series) The One Where Ross and Rachel... You Know (1996) User Reviews

Another Classic Episode

[slightlymad22 · 10/10 · 11 December 2014]

Another classic episode of "Friends" which has now returned to form in great style. This is the episode in which Joey and Chandler acquire the leather armchairs in which they spend most of their time living together watching TV. It's also the first appearance of Tom Selleck as Dr Richard Burke Monica's love interest.

Plot In A Paragraph: Feeling flush with money from his 'Days Of Our Lives' gig as Dr Drake Ramorey, Joey splashes out on a big screen TV and two Lazy Boy leather chairs for Chandler and himself. However once they sit down, they never get back up. Meanwhile Monica has a job catering for an old friend of her Mam and Dad Dr Richard Burke (Tom Selleck) and Ross and Rachel struggle to move things to the next level when she keeps getting the giggles.

I love this episode. If I was making a collection of the best episodes, this one would feature on it.

Ages amazingly well!

I watched this in my late 20's so I'm biased, for sure. But rewatching now, it is still funny, and a lot is happening in this episode. Two new romances, one from within the group and the other with Tom Selleck!!! They're all really good actors! They're friendship off camera definitely helped with that. And they're all young and beautiful 😏 I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it!

The One Where Ross and Rachel... You Know

[Lady_Targaryen · 8/10 · 6 May 2008]

Joey, who is now receiving a lot of money from DAYS OF OUR LIVES, buys new furniture (two armchairs and a big screen TV) for his and chandler's house.

Monica gets a job to work in Richard's house. Richard is a doctor and her parents friend. He is also 20 years older then her. At first, he doesn't recognize Monica, since she is thin and beautiful,later he stays surprised of how much she changed. They eventually start to feel attracted to each other and make out.

Ross and Rachel have their first night of love together in the museum. ( And we see a very funny scene when they suddenly wake up in the next day!)

The One Where Ross and Rachel... You Know

[ComedyFan2010 · 8/10 · 20 June 2011]

In this episode we see the beginning of Ross's and Rachel's relationship. It is pretty awkward in the beginning, and Rachel can't stop laughing when they are kissing. But Ross saves it with the romantic night in the museum. What I like about it is how there are romantic moments but they don't get too much to make it boring, there is always something brought in for the laughter.

Chandler and Joey get their chairs so they can watch TV with feet up and don't want to get out of them again. It is a funny Chandler/Joey thing for the background story in the episode and shows a great chemistry between their characters

And there is the beginning of relationship between Monica and Richard that already predicts lots of funny moments in the future

I like the bit where they don't want to get out of their chairs. Lots of funny jokes here.
