The Moistmaker freakout

One of Ross's best comedic bits and worthy of the memetic status it has achieved over the years. Gotta be honest, I kinda sympathize with Ross here despite his outsized reaction. He's recently divorced from Emily, so he's in a bad place. He even says that the Moistmaker sandwich was the only thing he had to look forward to in life at the time. However, the thing that would've set me off like Ross is the sheer glee his boss seems to take in admitting he stole his sandwich and the additional audacity of saying he threw most of it away, to boot. Total jerk move.

Why Ross, the largest friend, does not simply eat the other five

Well, Lrrr, it's because Ross isn't actually the largest Friend. That would be Joey, which is why that joke doesn't really land for me (you can argue Ross is the tallest, I guess, but he's definitely not the "alpha male" of the group). He probably wouldn't be able to take Monica based on all indications of her surprising strength either. Now I wouldn't put it past Joey to eat the other five if it came down to it.

Top 5 Worst Episodes

I said in the opening post I didn't want to simply rank episodes...! Plus, I don't know what I'd say are the worst episodes off of the top of my head, so let's see what the worst ranked episodes are on IMDB. Hmm...Looks like it's all clip shows. I guess people really don't like those, but I get it since they're kinda lazy by design. Probably the biggest travesty of these clip shows doesn't actually take place in the episode itself. In The One with the Vows, Chandler supposedly writes these hilarious vows, but when the wedding gets here, he doesn't use them. It's a shame we never got to hear them!

The lowest rated episode that isn't a clip show is The One with the Donor, and I'd probably agree that's one of the worst. Chandler and Monica grilling John Stamos's character Zack on his entire family history to see if he'd be a good sperm donor is awkward more often in a bad way than a good way.

Pivot!
PIVOT!

Another great Ross meme and something anyone can relate to if you've ever had to carry bulky furniture up a flight of stairs. It's probably for the best that Rachel couldn't find Joey to help and had to bring Chandler along instead because he's great here, too. He nearly gets thrown over the railing as the couch rolls over top of him, and he counters Ross's PIVOT chant with a SHUT UP retort. Also, at some point, you gotta bite the bullet and pay for the store's movers to carry the couch, man. It's money well spent.

Chandler's roommate Eddie

Perhaps the creepiest and most discomforting character in the series, but in a good way, at least for me. Chandler plays off of Eddie so well. Probably my favorite interaction is when Chandler wakes up to find Eddie watching him and yells at him to move out. Eddie's incredulous response of, "What about all the other nights when you didn't see me, huh?" like Chandler shouldn't be bothered by it is fantastic.

The theme song

One of my all-time favorite television theme songs, it just fits the show so well. It's super catchy, too. I'm always disappointed when I'm watching the episode and it has the abridged title sequence instead of the full version. Some channels who run the show in syndication skip it entirely by putting it in a small window at the bottom of the screen, which I guess is meant to save time so they can play more of the episode. That just means your commercial breaks are too long!
