The writers said the reason they had Chandler and Monica keeping their relationship a secret for so long was to see how the viewers liked them as an actual couple. So, if for some reason people weren’t on board, they could end it with minimal drama within the friend group. They were originally only supposed to be a hookup, but the reaction the live audience gave to that first reveal in London made them rethink things. 😉
That makes sense. Ross and Rachel's relationship was beyond frustrating after the first breakup. They felt like a couple worth rooting for, to the on-again-off-again relationship that threw in a love triangle for no reason.
I love that scene between Rachel and Joey, "not talking" about Chandler and Monica. It's hilarious! Joey: Do you know something? Rachel: Do YOU know something? Joey: (sneers) You don't know... And my favorite part: Rachel: I will see if the thing that I think that I know is actually the thing that I think that I know! 🤣🤣🤣
Exactly! There is no chance Monica and Chandler didn't hear that scream, but for the sake of the plot we are just supposed to pretend that didn't happen lol
@asthajindal5275 the phone is on the same line as the one in Mon's bedroom, so if she picked up the phone while they were talking Rachel would hear their conversation. So in that situation they should have heard her. But it's the same as the Friends having private conversations in the kitchen while the others are sat near the TV ... just have to go with it that they don't hear it for the plots sake 😊
The One with the Resolutions is easily my favorite episode of the series. Chandler having to hold back the sarcastic comments is enough to make it great.
“Flying a jet? Better make it a spaceship, so you can get back to your home planet!” Line kills me every time, and his delivery 👌🏼Thanks for reacting to this series, it’s refreshing and nostalgic watching someone watch and enjoy the show for the first time!
I worked for an oil company for a while and the co-owner from Canada came to watch over our crew. He would say meanish things and laugh after every time, and I had to laugh with him. It got so ooolllldd.
Ross slapping himself is just the funniest thing to me. And I say that as someone who has punched myself in the boob whilst rolling up my sleeves multiple times 😂😂😂
17:50 - They mention the Meg Ryan / Tom Hanks movie You Got Mail (1998). It's based on the James Stewart movie The Shop Around The Corner (1940). I'd highly recommend the James Stewart version 👍
I don't think I ever laughed so much in a Friends episode as in the first one. Something about the writing and comedic timing there was just perfect xD
the writing is so good. the way everything ties together in unsuspecting ways, from beginning to end. having monica and chandler keeping it a secret and the ways in which each one finds out is so funny
I love how everyone always found Janice annoying and it took Ross a second to realize what was happening! The fact that he was annoying Janice (of all people) was just hilarious
The One With All The Resolutions is a toptier episode for me, the writing and tying in Rachel not gossiping with her finding out... Amazing! And the jokes with Ross are iconic😂 Top 3 episodes if not the #1 off of friends
Fun fact: When Ross slaps himself in the forehead while trying to pull the leather pants back on, that wasn't in the script. That was David Schwimmer accidentally doing it and the producers kept it in. Fun fact 2: When Doug tells a joke about "President Clinton and her husband Bill", the joke implies that the First Lady during the time the episode was made, Hillary Clinton, was actually making the presidential decisions.
Also, the "Dewey Cheetham and Howe" is also dubbed over as "Dickem, Stickem and Run" (or vice versa). I think the latter is used in DVDs whereas the other is for more TV friendly broadcasting 😊
I LOVE the leather pants episode where Rachel finds out!!! 😂😂😂 It's in my top five all-time favs of this show and always makes me laugh. ❤ I think all the stories between the characters are equally strong and made hilarious.
Poor Ross, man. 😂 She should have at least let him take a shower and let him borrow some pajama pants or something! Also - glad you're feeling better! I got it for the first time this January. Somehow avoided it all the way until this year. Was awful, but I'm glad I probably got a weaker version than when it was newer.
the whole Ross and his leather pants thing bothers me to the high heavens because JUST TELL HER! tell her you’re too hot, or that your pants won’t come back up! It could’ve been fine! 😂 I know it’s just a silly lil show but I’m mad! lol
These reactions are my favourite thing in the week at this point. As someone who's mum was obsessed with this show, I don't think I spent an hour of the week without it on a rerun. Someone reacting to Friends for the first time is gold, and your hilarious to watch Oscar! Love the Cocoa Couch!
I've never quite understood why Ross and Emily got divorced - they literally never saw each other after the ceremony, so why not just get it annulled???
Yay new episodes. Hope you a lot better now Oscar, no need to apologize ,your health comes first . Love you and your videos your reactions and commentary.
I don't know for sure but I read somewhere that Ross' hand slipping and hitting him in the face while trying to pull up the leather pants was unscripted and left in the episode. Nevertheless, the physical comedy is GOLD. Also David's delivery specifically on the word 'PASTE' is hilarious. I definitely did not expect Ross and Janice! Also I find it funny how she thinks that Chandler is still in Yemen. And as much as I love Janice, Chandler and Monica clearly make a better fit. Fun fact: Matthew Perry was actually really good at tennis and he became a top-ranked junior player in Canada.
6:41 yeah I used to wear my leather jacket I had one only,it was the only leather outfit I owned and I easily felt hot sweaty and it's weird cus I was sitting in a super cold auditorium,when I took of the jacket I felt cold like that's how hot a leather outfit can be but for me it was worse cus of my sensitive skin and excema,I only wore it if my excema on my arm was healed , it's a permanent skin condition. My body heat is always up
Always felt they sort of did Janis dirty here. While she’s whiny vocally, she’s not a whiny person. In fact her super upbeat nature is part of why she’s a lot to take.
Hey Oscar, so terribly sorry that you got Covid and glad to see your somewhat better now, i know it sometimes takes weeks even days to recover from a horrible sickness like that! but you show so much strength and resilence stilll getting the energy to post and be consistent, where if you were to slightly withdraw from a bit due to that i would fully understand! love your reactions as always, you are so bubbly and fun and i enjoy your reactions as always!! hope ur doing fabulous whenever u read this!!!
"I guess that's 2 out of 3" and Joey's face when she says it gets me every time 😂😂😂😂 In general I don't like Ross as a character but David Schwimmer's physical comedy is hilarious, especially in the bathroom with his leather pants 😂😂😂😂
Really happy that you are feeling better! Health should always come first. I've been looking forward to the reaction to these episodes! Ross and his leather pants always cracks me up! 😅
I used to hate Friend 15 years ago due to my young age, but decided to watch it with your reactions and this show is hilarious! I'm looking forward to your reactions every week! You are amazing!
So happy to learn in this video that your a year younger then me I'm 26 and your 25 yay 😄👏🏻, also it's cute seeing Phoebe at 17:30 hang out and chatting with Dick the Duck and Little Yasmine the Rooster 🥰🐓🦆🤣
The legendary 'leather pants' episode 😂 Oh, and if you're looking for another sitcom to react to, try IT Crowd if you haven't seen it already. It's brilliant, but pretty short.
5:32 Ross actually looks great in those pants. But man leather or any hot material I like it be great to wear it looks cool and nice but I have excema and ocd so yeah when I see people wear leather, polyester,jeans, anything tight or revealing or hot type material I feel uncomfortable and wish I could be able to feel comfortable in those materials , I wonder how others can feel comfortable. My skin very sensitive to everything basically everything plus living In Dubai does not help
R.i.p Matthew perry he will be remembered by all the people that knew him and never forgotten rest in peace Matthew perry a fantastic actor and a good guy that got tookin far 2 soon. But always be in our hearts.
Ross and his leather pants always have me crying laughing. The sheer panic in his voice is visceral and I love Schwimmer’s acting
One of the funniest moments in the whole series 🤣
I totally agree 😂👍
"They're still not coming on man!" sounds so pained, it's hilarious!~ XD
and this face slap😂
09:38 He smacking himself in the face
The slow reveal of Monica and Chandler is so much fun.
And we haven't got to the best yet!!!!
it's so funny. first the whole thing with joey being blamed for stuff, then him and rachel messing with them lol
The writers said the reason they had Chandler and Monica keeping their relationship a secret for so long was to see how the viewers liked them as an actual couple. So, if for some reason people weren’t on board, they could end it with minimal drama within the friend group.
They were originally only supposed to be a hookup, but the reaction the live audience gave to that first reveal in London made them rethink things. 😉
That makes sense. Ross and Rachel's relationship was beyond frustrating after the first breakup. They felt like a couple worth rooting for, to the on-again-off-again relationship that threw in a love triangle for no reason.
"The One With All the Resolutions" is one of my top favorite cold opens. Joey can truly be a genius when given the right assignment. ;)
Same, but it can't top the Cold Opening with Robin Williams.
David is SUCH a good actor of physical comedy, the leather pants get me EVERY TIME.
The other highly underrated actor in physical comedy that starred in a contemporary NBC sitcom was also named David. Coincidence?
I love how the little face slap Ross does was actually real and they kept it in looool made for such a good moment.
Wait REALLY??? I thought David did that on purpose
I love that scene between Rachel and Joey, "not talking" about Chandler and Monica. It's hilarious!
Joey: Do you know something?
Rachel: Do YOU know something?
Joey: (sneers) You don't know...
And my favorite part:
Rachel: I will see if the thing that I think that I know is actually the thing that I think that I know!
🤣🤣🤣
*gasp* YOU KNOW!
As someone who hates watching awkward situations this episode with the leather pants is almost physically painful haha
I know! I do ALWAYS fast forward!
OMG i thought it's just meee😭
16:50 "At least Chandler didn't sound like a bird" 😂😂😂😂
What I always thought was kinda funny about Rachel finding out,
If you look closely, she technically screamed, THEN hung up the phone. 😆
Exactly! There is no chance Monica and Chandler didn't hear that scream, but for the sake of the plot we are just supposed to pretend that didn't happen lol
I thought it was a pre-recorded message or something. that explains it.
@asthajindal5275 the phone is on the same line as the one in Mon's bedroom, so if she picked up the phone while they were talking Rachel would hear their conversation. So in that situation they should have heard her. But it's the same as the Friends having private conversations in the kitchen while the others are sat near the TV ... just have to go with it that they don't hear it for the plots sake 😊
The One with the Resolutions is easily my favorite episode of the series. Chandler having to hold back the sarcastic comments is enough to make it great.
I honestly look forward to your friends reaction each week, so excited to watch this one!!
“Flying a jet? Better make it a spaceship, so you can get back to your home planet!” Line kills me every time, and his delivery 👌🏼Thanks for reacting to this series, it’s refreshing and nostalgic watching someone watch and enjoy the show for the first time!
Can't wait until next Monday. It's gonna have one of my favorite episodes of all time.
Same!!!
Me too!
2:16 1999 was the year I graduated college! You're making me feel old! Lol.😂
The situations Ross constantly finds himself with are out of this world hilarious
I worked for an oil company for a while and the co-owner from Canada came to watch over our crew. He would say meanish things and laugh after every time, and I had to laugh with him. It got so ooolllldd.
Ross slapping himself is just the funniest thing to me. And I say that as someone who has punched myself in the boob whilst rolling up my sleeves multiple times 😂😂😂
speaking as someone who's once been elbowed in the boob.. ouch!! 😂
really appreciate this comment because i do that ALL the time lmao
The leather pants scene is one of the best scenes ever 😂
17:50 - They mention the Meg Ryan / Tom Hanks movie You Got Mail (1998).
It's based on the James Stewart movie The Shop Around The Corner (1940).
I'd highly recommend the James Stewart version 👍
13:01 this scene is sooo brilliant!!🤣
Sorry you were sick! Hope you feel well rested❤
The episode where everyone finds out is PERFECTION on good writing. One of my favorites of the series! Have fun 😊
26:43 Technically, Ross already owes Chandler a pass from kissing Chandler’s mom back in season 1. In theory, it should even out.
I love Rachel's reaction when she finds out.
Tu tá em todo video de friends
I don't think I ever laughed so much in a Friends episode as in the first one. Something about the writing and comedic timing there was just perfect xD

Top 3 episodes if not the #1 off of friends
So glad you’re enjoying it!! Each season does truly get better especially these next 2 seasons!
Fun fact: When Ross slaps himself in the forehead while trying to pull the leather pants back on, that wasn't in the script. That was David Schwimmer accidentally doing it and the producers kept it in.

HILARIOUS REACTION TO THIS COUPLE OF EPISODES I can't put into words how much I enjoyed it
I check for Friends reactions from Cocoa Couch so often I'm here at 19 mins lol
Poor Ross, man. 😂 She should have at least let him take a shower and let him borrow some pajama pants or something! Also - glad you're feeling better! I got it for the first time this January. Somehow avoided it all the way until this year. Was awful, but I'm glad I probably got a weaker version than when it was newer.
Everyones reactions to their relationship are the best!
the whole Ross and his leather pants thing bothers me to the high heavens because JUST TELL HER! tell her you’re too hot, or that your pants won’t come back up! It could’ve been fine! 😂 I know it’s just a silly lil show but I’m mad! lol

Awww i knew something was going on but i thought you were on vacation so that's why you didn't post as often! Get well soon!💕
20:04 Well, that was a delayed reaction. 😂
I'm glad you're feeling better after feeling sick, please go easy on yourself!
I love all of Janice's cameos. It's especially great because you just don't see them coming!
I'm glad you're feeling a bit better! love watching these reactions!
I've never quite understood why Ross and Emily got divorced - they literally never saw each other after the ceremony, so why not just get it annulled???
So sorry to hear about the Covid! I hope you're feeling much better now.
I always love anyone's Janice reactions!
9:28 "dude why you're listening to joey?" HONESTLY
3:48 Technically, Chandlers resolution was to not make fun of his friends so he could've made fun of the name.
11:33 Ross's quote about the year is quoted every January 2nd. I love it 😂
Yay new episodes.
Hope you a lot better now Oscar, no need to apologize ,your health comes first .
Love you and your videos your reactions and commentary.

My favorite episode is coming “MY EYES MY EYES”
My Monday is happy & bright now. 🌞
I love your facial expressions 😍 Such a good reactor. Thank you.
I’m glad you’re feeling better! We appreciate you still uploading even though you were sick!!❤❤

The Resolutions episode is one of my favorites. Though Season 5 have a lot of my favorites.
Glad u r feeling better.
Yessss let's goooo ! Hope you feel better from COVID 🦋
6:41 yeah I used to wear my leather jacket I had one only,it was the only leather outfit I owned and I easily felt hot sweaty and it's weird cus I was sitting in a super cold auditorium,when I took of the jacket I felt cold like that's how hot a leather outfit can be but for me it was worse cus of my sensitive skin and excema,I only wore it if my excema on my arm was healed , it's a permanent skin condition.
My body heat is always up
watching you react to one of my favorite shows is the highlight of my week.
Hope you're feeling better and Friends managed to lift your spirits 🤗
and oh my gosh they changed the punchline of chandler's bosses joke! in the US it's Dickem Stickem and Run.
Hope you are feeling better 🙏🏻
I am loving your journey, and I have been DYING for you to get to episode 14 of Season 5 and we're almost there!!!
Btw I watched your reaction to Janice a few times. So funny and you took a few seconds for it to register. 😂
OH. MY. GAWD!
I was literally waiting on your page for this! thank you! Hope you feel better soon 💜
Always felt they sort of did Janis dirty here. While she’s whiny vocally, she’s not a whiny person. In fact her super upbeat nature is part of why she’s a lot to take.
Your expression when Janice first walked into Joey and Chandler's apartment was perfection. 😄🤣❤
No. Gum is perfection.
@@TheRetroGuy2000 🤣🤣🤣 Well said.
Next week we get THE episode! Glad you're feeling better Oscar.
Hey Oscar, so terribly sorry that you got Covid and glad to see your somewhat better now, i know it sometimes takes weeks even days to recover from a horrible sickness like that! but you show so much strength and resilence stilll getting the energy to post and be consistent, where if you were to slightly withdraw from a bit due to that i would fully understand! love your reactions as always, you are so bubbly and fun and i enjoy your reactions as always!! hope ur doing fabulous whenever u read this!!!

I LOVE YOUR REACTIONS, SOOOOO PURE ❤
"I guess that's 2 out of 3" and Joey's face when she says it gets me every time 😂😂😂😂
In general I don't like Ross as a character but David Schwimmer's physical comedy is hilarious, especially in the bathroom with his leather pants 😂😂😂😂
Really happy that you are feeling better! Health should always come first. I've been looking forward to the reaction to these episodes! Ross and his leather pants always cracks me up! 😅
These next couple of episodes r some of my fav in the show. The first one in this vid and one in like 3 or 4 eps.
Thanks, Oscar! ☕ Joe Regalbuto and Kevin Bright directed these two.
Can't wait for next week and one of my favorite episodes!
Monica so cute with camera thing 😊❤
I used to hate Friend 15 years ago due to my young age, but decided to watch it with your reactions and this show is hilarious! I'm looking forward to your reactions every week! You are amazing!

Get better soon Oscar and feel better and sorry 2 hear that.

So happy to learn in this video that your a year younger then me I'm 26 and your 25 yay 😄👏🏻, also it's cute seeing Phoebe at 17:30 hang out and chatting with Dick the Duck and Little Yasmine the Rooster 🥰🐓🦆🤣
I’ve spent the last two weeks watching these reactions and I’m so bummed out that I’m caught up now 🤣😭
The legendary 'leather pants' episode 😂 Oh, and if you're looking for another sitcom to react to, try IT Crowd if you haven't seen it already. It's brilliant, but pretty short.
5:32 Ross actually looks great in those pants.

My skin very sensitive to everything basically everything plus living In Dubai does not help
I just remembered Chandler was with Joey's sister too. Ursula next?
20:05😲 Oh My God!!!!
I love how much Joey hates Janice 😂
So sad that no one ever gets the fraggle rock part of Chandler's bit anymore. It makes me howl every time I hear it.
It does make me feel old that the joke makes me laugh. It’s a gem.
So glad you are feeling better. I hope it's all past you now. 😊
Can’t waiiit for you to keep watching!!!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂😂
yess the best episode is coming up 😄
Can't wait for Episode 14 reaction..... arguably the BEST Friends episode.....
Glad you’re feeling better.😁
This is legit in my top 5 episodes 😂
Glad you're getting better.
Glad! you're doing better.
R.i.p Matthew perry he will be remembered by all the people that knew him and never forgotten rest in peace Matthew perry a fantastic actor and a good guy that got tookin far 2 soon. But always be in our hearts.
