You'd have to be the biggest joke snob not to have laughed multiple times during this episode. The character work and comedic chops were spot on in this one. The dialogue was full of wit and subtle humor and actually funny jokes. You can tell the writers didn't worry too much about moving the various arcs forward, and chose to focus on the scene work. My favorite was Phoebe and Joey kickin it in the kitchen while they hatched their plan. Also, the guest stars had great chemistry with the main characters. Lovitz was a great casting choice! Whole episode was thoroughly entertaining and is possibly one of my favorites of the entire series.

As a bisexual person, I have to disagree with the below reviewers. They kind of missed one of the main points of this episode which was to show how sexuality is a spectrum and the dialogue surrounding it (at the time). Many people and even gays didn't fully understand bisexuality - that doesn't automatically make them phobic (some definitely are though) So of course that dialogue is presented from the pov of these straight women. Carrie even talks about gender and constructs...though I agree that as a sex columnist, her character should've been the one to be less fazed by all of this. It is however established that she mostly just poses questions in her column, so it's not super realistic. And of course the creators and some of the writers of this show were part of the growing LGBTQ community. Think about that for a minute. The whole point was literally to show bisexuality.
