Actually, my family and I tried the "name all the states in 6 minutes" game after seeing this episode, and even as someone who can say with confidence that they do, in fact, know all 50 states, the pressure of the time limit does make it tough to make sure you got them all, especially if you're just listing states at random as they come to mind and not in any discernible order. As an added challenge, we also did "name all 50 state capitals." Yes, I am a nerd, but why else would I be here if I weren't? Cavedweller2000 posted... Chandler's dramatic weight loss from the last episode of season 6 to the first episode of season 7 considering both episodes were set the same night No one's appearance changed more from season to season than Chandler's. It'd almost be funny if it weren't the result of Matthew Perry's addictions, so I get why none of the characters ever draw attention to it. It was kind of tough watching him in the Friends reunion because it doesn't seem like he's aged well (although he said his speech problems were the result of some dental work he had done shortly before it was taped or something like that). This is a particularly jarring example though because, as you said, the first episode of season 7 is the direct aftermath of the season 6 finale. _PandaMaster_ posted... Unagi This was a great self-contained gag. If I've watched this episode recently, I'll probably find myself imitating the "fingers to temple" gesture Ross does every time he says "Unagi." I did it right now, and perhaps you did, too, as you recalled it...! I've never had unagi before, but I'm not a big sushi guy. The best part of this episode might actually be the end where Ross asks the self-defense coach how to escape from his moves so he can attack his ex-wife, and Ross plays it completely straight despite the guy clearly thinking he's unhinged. Aecioo posted... the forever Friends vs Seinfeld debate I get why these two are often compared since they're the two biggest sitcoms of the '90s, but I don't feel like they're all that similar other than both being sitcoms. The appeal of the two shows is different. Seinfeld popularized the "It's funny because all the main characters are terrible people" subgenre of sitcom, and there's very little drama or heartwarming moments. Friends is more of a feel-good type of sitcom, where you root for the characters and you find satisfaction in their triumphs and their growth over the course of the show. I love both shows, but I'd side with Friends overall. It's a show I always find myself coming back to, for one reason or another. Current rankings: How You Doin?
