The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate

And that's how the greatest comedy of TV started! It has been 12 years since the very first episode but it has continued with the same spirit till the very last season. Because that's where "Friends" is based: on quotes. Extraordinary situations are taking place among six friends who will never leave from our hearts: Let's say a big thanks to Rachel, Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler and Phoebe!!! In our first meet, we see how Rachel dumps a guy (in the church, how ... (understand), Monica's search for the "perfect guy" (there is no perfect guy, why all you women are obsessed with that???), and how your marriage can be ruined when the partner of your life discovers that she's a lesbian. Till we meet Joey, Phoebe and Chandler in the next episodes... ENJOY FRIENDS!

First episode with a few info about so much things ; now we know a glance about every character, Joey the actor, Chandler the funny guy, Monica the one with missed up relationships, Phoebe the simple one, Ross the man who has hard time facing a divorce and Rachel the girl who has uncertain decisions and she is just started to be independent; shall we have much fun with the gang? let's see.

This is what started the iconic TV series that has lasted 10 years & stuck with loyal fans for 20 years. This what you would want in a first episode. It showed every character, plot & typical jokes that would stay with the show for all the seasons such as : Phoebe's singing, Joey's acting, Ross & Rachel, Chandler's sarcasm. It didn't leave the fans feeling underwhelmed, it is one of the best premiere's of all time. MVP : Rachel Quote : Ross: You know, you probably didn't know this, but back in high school, I had a major crush on you. Rachel: I knew. Ross: You did. Oh... I always figured you just thought I was Monica's geeky older brother. Rachel: I did.

This pilot episode manages to present a clear and competent structure of the series that would last 10 years and that would be a major phenomena in the history of world television. All characters can bring their characteristics that would last throughout the series. Manias Monica , style silkworm cricket Phoebe , Ross and his loving insecurity , the power of Don Juan 's Joey , the mess of Chandler and Rachel preppy charm of the hardworking . The episode , and present the main characters , has as its central line adaptation of Ross and Rachel after the end of their romantic relationships, despite happen for different reasons , and the relationship Monica with Paul , the wine guy . With a longer duration than the following episodes , this pilot is worth being seen and revised .

I have to say, I think the new IMDb format for television shows is fantastic insofar that you can comment on individual episodes! (The rest of the format I will simply say is less pleasing, but hopefully bugs will be tweaked with later on down the road.) Anyway, this was the very first episode of "Friends" (the pilot), in which Monica gets a roommate, Rachel. Rachel was old friends with Monica and Monica's brother Ross. Ross had feelings for Rachel and is put in an awkward position when she returns.

As far as this episode compares to later ones - it's flat. The cast isn't confident - Jennifer Aniston in particular looks like she just stepped off the bus for Hollywood and is totally lost.

However, it is a fine setup for the series and any "Friends" fan will certainly derive some type of nostalgic entertainment from it!
