Fun fact: Lisa Kudrow is really good at playing Ursula because she actually played her first! Ursula was a character on another NBC sitcom called Mad About You, which started airing before Friends in 1992 and was also set in New York. When Kudrow was later cast in Friends, the producers decided to make her the twin sister of her other character so that the two sitcoms could cross over with each other. As well as the characters crossing over, the blackout in Friends Season 1 was also canonically caused by a character in an episode of Mad About You - the two episodes aired on the same night!
Oh, and I also just thought of that one time when Helen Hunt comes into Central Perk and thinks Phoebe is Ursula. Gives it another layer* now learning about the crossover intentions.
@MichelleMerinoArt Yep! Both Helen Hunt and the friend she comes in with were playing their MAY characters and thought Phoebe was Ursula. They were surprised to see her and thought that she was working at Central Perk rather than Riff’s, the restaurant she works at in MAY. They then confirm (in their minds) that she’s ‘Ursula’ when Phoebe walks off without getting their orders, because Ursula was a notoriously bad/lazy waitress.
Starting watching this show when I was around 10...i didn't understand why they had a problem turning 30 as they were clearly so old already - now I'm turning 30 this year and totally get it
I started watching at about the same age and am turning 20 this month, and I remember thinking "lmao 29 is basically the same as 30, what's the big deal" but the milestone-phobia is real
Season 7 is probably the most “hang out” season of the series. There’s not a lot of drama or huge character developments. But there’s enough overall entertaining episodes to make it worthwhile.
@@christopherb501 I mean, it’s to me a weaker season than 2-6 and probably 8. Also, the show had established itself as having a good amount of relationship and career drama. So, I can understand being restless with a season like this.
I think I like it for that reason. It’s not he best season, but it’s nice to have a breather because the few seasons prior to this are wall to wall drama and the storylines move pretty rapidly, so it’s cool that they slowed things down for a bit.
As someone on the other side of 30 (and 40), my experience is that those milestone birthdays are a bigger deal in anticipation than they are in reality. I remember the day before my 30th birthday being super aware that it was the last day of my 20's. But then the next day came and I was just a day older. It's really not the big deal we can sometimes make it out to be. And as far as not being where we think we should be, or not having achieved what we wanted to, that's also a matter of framing. In Rachel's case, think of the life she imagined for herself before the series started. What she has now is soooooo much better than what she thought she wanted, and where she imagined she would be by this point. I'm a person who also hasn't achieved a lot of the basic milestones I just always assumed I would. But my life is full of so much richness that would have been beyond my imagination 20 years ago.
Jack Geller is actually a great dad to Monica. He always shows her compassion and love. However, Monica's mother is very critical of her. The reason for this can be found in the episode where Judy's mum dies. Apparently, her mum used to be very critical of her, so Judy just automatically passes that on to her own daughter. Doesn't excuse it though, but it is the reason.
It’s not fair that people try make out Jack is as bad as Judy but he has been an enabler, never checks Judy for how she treats Monica which isn’t great😕
Once you hit the halfway point in a decade, the second half seems to go by more quickly. So now you're on the downhill slide to 30. It's amazing how fast it all goes by. It doesn't feel like that when you're in the middle of it, but once you hit 40 it's like damn, how did I get here so fast? Life is far too short and so little of it is youthful. Take the time to appreciate where you are.
I was dreading turning 40 while working at a senior care facility, to all those great people i was a baby and was reminded of all the great things to come. Besides i dont think people remember their 20s and 30s right, versus where i am now and what i have those times were full of angst and unknowns.
Yeah, I personally am not much of a birthday person in general, it’s in a time of year where the weather is ideal at every part of the country and they jam plans anyway possible to fill of the month I was born in, so I had a few birthday parties but was turned down by some because plans were made. I also have to deal with a holiday celebration that week and other events, at the end I just want the month to be over. Was just thankful that I just went out to each with immediate family after dealing with the lockdowns in our country. Btw I feel like those lockdowns robbed us a few years!
I'm 31 (will be 32 in February) and I have no goals or plans (or plah as Phoebe would say) and have no idea what I'm doing. I haven't even been able to work or finish school because of my poor mental health (and physical tbh). Not to get even more deep but Phoebe's storyline in E13 hits hard because I've been where the Earl character was. I actually tried several times. I know they had to make it funny too but I like how they still weren't just making insensitive jokes and were actually quite respectful, since this is a very serious topic. Fortunately I have people in my life that do care but not all of them understand how hard it is. Sometimes just getting out of bed is extremely difficult. But back to the show and that storyline actually. I love when Phoebe shows her compassion and empathy. At least in the earlier seasons she was what is called an empath, and we still get a glimpse of that, like in E13. It's been established her mum did indeed kill herself (the one who raised her, not her birthmother). But there's a slight continuity error because Phoebe doesn't know her birth year or middle name since her mum died when she was so young. However, it has been said many times that her mum died when she was a teenager so it's very unrealistic that she wouldn't know by that age. All of their ages are inconsistent in E14 and throughout the show though. I completely agree with everything you said about Ross as well. Everyone has both good and bad sides to them. (Sidenote: I'm always reminded of Harry Potter and both Dumbledore & Sirius telling Harry that everyone has good and bad to them but what matters is which we choose to follow). But if you are able to care about other people and have empathy you're a good person. Ross's ego IS huge (a lot thanks to his and Monica's parents) but he can put that aside when he needs/wants to and just be a good brother/friend. Chandler is also a good friend. Fun fact: Earl is played by Jason Alexander who indeed was in Seinfeld. He also appeared on the show Malcolm in the Middle as a character who coincidentally sold toner over the phone. Funny story: Rosita was a fake name I gave myself when I was younger and I didn't remember where I got it from until I watched E13 a few years ago and was like "is that where I got it from?" 🤣
I always looked forward to my 30's. In your 20's your still "a kid" and when you hit 40, you have a midlife crisis so I figured your 30's should be your golden years. But I didn't count on was my mom dying when I was 29 and turning my whole world around. I spent most of my 30's just trying to survive.
I also love that Chandler is the only one that didn’t go crazy over turning 30. Despite his sarcasm and his tendency to make jokes out of everything, I’ve always thought that he’s the most grounded character of the group. That shows even more in the last season, but no spoilers 🙊
Not trying to be that person, but the amount of "plot holes" in that 30 episode is insane, Rachel was already 28 in season 3 the 3RD SEASON and only in season 7 she turns 30, Joey was supposed to be younger than Chandler and be the youngest one, be now he's older than Chandler and everyone else except for Phoebe, Ross spent 4 seasons being 29 years old and only in season 5 he turned 30, and he was really sad and depressed because of the divorce with Emily and being evicted and losing his job(remember how he was on a rampage in that season losing his mind everytime) but here he looks so happy turning 30 and buying a sports car(????)also Monica and Chandler are already together in these flashbacks of them all turning 30, while they were still hiding their relationship when the rest of the friends were supposed to be 30, I love friends but there's a lot of errors that mak
This episode actually retcons Rachel's age from the first season, which is implied to be 26. However, I think this is a retcon that makes more sense, because it now means that she was 24 in the first season, which fits her character better. Here's what I mean: it's pretty well established that Rachel was on the same path as her mother: "I went from my father's house, to the sorority house, to my husband's house!" It makes more sense that Rachel would get married very soon after college, plus this episode confirms that she would need to know her future husband for a year before getting engaged, and that she would need a year to plan the wedding. So if she graduated at 22, that'd be more than enough time to meet Barry and arrange their wedding.
I remember the birthday episode made me dread turning 30. I've been in a panic of "in another 30 years I'll be 60! I hate this!" Basically having a Joey crisis 😂. I'm 32 now and honestly I'm feeling ok. Aside from back pains and feeling dead inside from work and problems of the world, I don't feel all that old.
I’m 29 and I still live in the delusional world where I convince myself that everyone on TH-cam is older than me… and then you go and say you’re 25 and suddenly I’m staring off into the middle distance and realising that I’m now in the same position as the Friends. Fun times! Great reaction as always!
I had no issues turning 30. Like, none.. I don't even remember how that looked like. It was just a regular birthday. But now I am 41 and when I turned 40 last year, my God... that was rough. lol
I actually never understood the big deal about becoming 30. I decided long ago not to conform to society's expectations about marrige and motherhood, so it didn't bother me. I am as old as I feel. 😉
I totally understand how you can relate to the aging thing. I'm 26 (going to be 27 in February ahhhh!) and at times I feel kinda weird about it. Sometimes, I feel like I'm not where I should be, but I remind myself how happy I am now and how proud I am of my growth. I also have luckily found my life partner, so one really important thing for me is accomplished. We plan on having children within the next 3ish years and are getting married in August 2025. :) Anyways, thanks for sharing your experience. I, and I'm sure others, can relate, and I hope that you are proud of yourself, too! :D Thanks for brightening my days with your content. :)
I always thought Monica was her father’s favorite though. It’s implied he was not very present before because well, old times, he was working while the mom stayed at home (and they are pretty well off, considering). The mom definitely projects her own mom-daughter issues to Monica and favors Ross. The dad goes along often enough, but there has been cute scenes between him and Monica and I feel he has a soft spot for her. At the top of my head, when she has insomnia after she breaks up with Richard, he goes there to check on her and she finally sleeps after he tells her Richard was devastated, and he stays there and covers her. He calls her Harmonica, which is sweet, and seemed to be an average if not a bit absent dad, which is usual, especially in the 70s and 80s. Not paying for the wedding I think it was more the mom’s influence in her thinking Monica would never marry.
And also the 6 or 7 easy bake ovens he mentions, i can't imagine the mom being all for that. He probably bought those for her. Plus she seemed to have as many, if not more, boxes than Ross in the garage as well. And we know most of Ross' boxes probably were the awards and plaques he talks about. And with the dynamic in this episode it really does look like Monica could be dad's favorite and little Ross felt like he had to be good at school and everything to have some attention from him (hence why he reads his report card when he feels like his dad is focusing on Monica instead of him)
People like to talk about 40 being the bad birthday, but I absolutely fell apart at 30, wondering what the hell I was doing with my life. By the time I got to 40 I was like, "eh, you know... whatever."
When I turned 30, my younger brother gave me a card with a grumpy-faced umpire on the cover... when you open the card, it reads, "Game over. You're old." 😆🤣 Thanks, bro.
30 didn't bother me really at all... I'm hitting 40 in January and have suddenly become aware of all the things i haven't accomplished... but at the same time, i could make a sizable list of all the things i have accomplished that i never eat thought to dream of. The trick is to be happy as happy as you can in the life you didn't necessarily know you wanted.
At 3:52 I love Chandler too he could've been an awesome detective in another life 😂💕🕵🏻♀👍🏻. Plus at 17:21 your 25 and I am 26 it still creeps up on us to hit our 30s 😬
It is funny how perspectives change. I remember the first time watching the 30's episode in my early twenties I totally got the general worries and the issue between Rachel and Tag. But now I am beyond that age I can't understand how people can be upset of turning 30. People of 30 years old are kids to me now as much as people of 25 years old.
Exactly, it’s all individual cases, not necessarily just an age thing. That’s why I pointed out that the age gap wasn’t the problem, it was just that Tag wasn’t at a place in his life maturity-wise that Rachel was wanting.
@@thecocoacouch Yeah, maturity not always comes with age and viceversa and It is relvant that your partner and you are in the same page. Unfortunately, that happens with friends too. Friendships tend to change because pleople are in different maturity places.
I got curious after you pondered the cost of the porsche -- Google says anywhere between $60,000 and $290,000, depending on the model. OUCH. (And yay for Monica! Lol)
That guy from that other sitcom....is Jason Alexander, who plays George Costanza on Seinfeld. Which is another show you should react to. It's friggin hilarious.
I'm a little confused on why you forgot that Phoebe's mom killed herself. She's brought it up quite often. Also Chandler didn't buy Joey the chair. He used his own.
Not Oscar forgetting about Phoebe's mom. 💀
U forgot Phoebe's mom had committed suicide when she was a child!?? She mentions that in every one of her dialogue in every episode until s6😭😭
and every single time he's surprised I've noticed lmao
She’s mentioned it like 10 times up until this episode 😂.
Also, he thinks Chandler bought Joey a new chair too. C'mon man. Attention to detail.
@@aLittleBitter. Ikr..Monica literally said she's happy the Barcalounger's gone!
Don’t know how you can miss that lol 😂

They always say Monica is the freakishly strong one, but darn it Rachel has to be strong too to just break Rosita like that 🤣
I remember when 30 seemed so old... good times. But 40 is much worse.... way more depressing
Why? Just why? What possibly could happen in 40 that it's worse?
Forties are the best years. you are young enough and wise enough to really enjoy life.

"My chair heals itself."

Just out of curiosity 😁 In this season Matthew and Jen were 33, David and Matt were 34, Courtney was 36 and Lisa was 37.
aww I was 34 and he was 26 it just about worked because he was mature by that age, we're now engaged.

I actually never understood the big deal about becoming 30. I decided long ago not to conform to society's expectations about marrige and motherhood, so it didn't bother me. I am as old as I feel. 😉
Ross trying to get out of his parking space = me when I lived in Chicago. 😆🤣 If I could even FIND a parking space, that is. 😉

I was treated like monica as the kid that was always left out, that really follows you forever, I still struggle with it even now on my forties
"That other sitcom" aka SEINFELD..you Have to watch it.
They should have done an entire episode Monica's 30th birthday instead of Rachel's
People like to talk about 40 being the bad birthday, but I absolutely fell apart at 30, wondering what the hell I was doing with my life. By the time I got to 40 I was like, "eh, you know... whatever."
True. But now that I'm in my 40s, I'm really dreading my 50th birthday.
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎄! This made my birthday so much better! Thank you so much for making us smile ❤😊
When I turned 30, my younger brother gave me a card with a grumpy-faced umpire on the cover... when you open the card, it reads, "Game over. You're old." 😆🤣 Thanks, bro.
Wait wait wait wait, let's give our Oscar the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he was thinking of Phoebe's birth mother...
How could you forget about Phoebe’s backstory with her mom? Her mom unaliving herself is a major plot point for Phoebe’s character.
Rachel turning 30, Tag being concerned about turning 25, that seems like a Padme / Anakin relationship age-gap if I've ever seen one.
It's crazy to think (after the 30 episode) that FRIENDS ended 20 years ago.
Whenever I see a reaction from you pop up on my feed it lifts my mood
30 didn't bother me really at all...

It is funny how perspectives change. I remember the first time watching the 30's episode in my early twenties I totally got the general worries and the issue between Rachel and Tag. But now I am beyond that age I can't understand how people can be upset of turning 30. People of 30 years old are kids to me now as much as people of 25 years old.
Exactly, it’s all individual cases, not necessarily just an age thing. That’s why I pointed out that the age gap wasn’t the problem, it was just that Tag wasn’t at a place in his life maturity-wise that Rachel was wanting.
@@thecocoacouch Yeah, maturity not always comes with age and viceversa and It is relvant that your partner and you are in the same page. Unfortunately, that happens with friends too. Friendships tend to change because pleople are in different maturity places.
Happy holidays 💚
Don't worry, bro. Turning 30 is just another day
Hey, don't let your 30s scare you, its just a number
On my 30th birthday, I remember having back pain or something and I stopped and said “it’s starting.” 😆
It’s all downhill now. 😆
I just realized that at the end of the first episode Rachel is sitting in Joey’s lap
I turn 35 on Wednesday and I wanted to be where Rachel wants to be by the time she's 35.... That didn't go as planned lol
I got curious after you pondered the cost of the porsche -- Google says anywhere between $60,000 and $290,000, depending on the model. OUCH. (And yay for Monica! Lol)
5:22 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m dying!!!
You want something big to happen? Be careful what you wish for. 🤗
That guy from that other sitcom....is Jason Alexander, who plays George Costanza on Seinfeld. Which is another show you should react to. It's friggin hilarious.
Yes, so good and no one reacts to it
Yeah, that’s Jason Alexander from Seinfeld, and you NEED to react to it when you finish Friends! (Please?) 😂
I'm a little confused on why you forgot that Phoebe's mom killed herself. She's brought it up quite often. Also Chandler didn't buy Joey the chair. He used his own.
please react to how I met your mother!
I’m scare of turning 20, can’t even imagine how it will be when I hit 30
30 was nothing, too many decades ago for me to try to remember.
Luckily for those of us in our 30's, we still look like we're in our 20's, and the 20 year olds already look like they're in their 30's...
Hmm, speak for yourself 🤣 too many people in their 30’s look like they be on the pipe lmao
I found 25 worse than 30. I mean, come on. 1/4 century? That sounds horrible.
29 is the worst age. A whole year worrying about 30. After that it's all just .. Meh, so what.
fun birthday episode
I like you man, you're a good person!
turning 30 next year 😢
bro has no brain... how did he forget that Phoebes mom killed herself
George from Seinfeld!
Meh... I'm 40 in two months. - w -
10:54 you forgot it😐😐😐😐
Been waiting for this video ❤
25? Dear god......
Am I the only one who's waiting for my 30 when I'm still 27 ?)))
Well I turn 30 some months ago. I feel the same as last year and the same as 3 years ago😂
It's not that big deal honestly. 😂😂
Super funny
Yay! Refreshing paid off!
Another 2 of my favorite episodes ❤
Please forgive me if I’m wrong but, are you ok?
Dude, your lips look purple, unless it’s just my TV🤷🏼
