Okay.
Now, we have some questions.
Before we get into it,
let's check in post reaction with our friends feeling.
Friend,
how are you feeling?
This is a fun block and I'm feeling fine.
I'm feeling,
you know, mirthful,
full of joy.
I'm feeling a little bit,
catharsed emotionally speaking.
We had some emotionally
resonant moments.
I love what I've realized over so much
time is that I do
have love in my heart for when
they get Joey on these like
multi-episode things where he's like
it is fascinating
to me to think back and I'm sure a rewatch
will show me all the ways in which Joey is a terrible
friend as well as everybody else.
But Joey like trying to
dance around and keep people's secrets
or Joey trying to like do the right thing
over multiple episodes or whatever, dealing with a problem is like always something I tend to
enjoy very much. And so, yeah, him and Rachel and him and Ross and all the sort of, you know,
outing of that truth was very just kind of nice and was a nice nuance. And it was one of those ways
in which, you know, everybody says like, oh, you know, the deeper and the later you get into the
show's catalog, the more stuff leans into the situational aspects of the comedy rather than
the character aspects of the comedy.
you know which is natural over decades or over nearly a decade um but yeah i really like that
and then some fun you know interstitial bits in between oh yeah um but yeah is this is a fun
block how are you feeling i'm feeling great there's been a lot of really fun bits over the course
of this block and some fun guest star appearances namely one mr alec baldwin yeah let's look a
Yeah, let's look up some stuff about Mr. Alec Baldwin.
Okay, so this isn't too far ahead of 30 Rock, but you are like four-ish years out.
If 30 Rock premieres in 2006, yeah, this is like slightly ahead of that.
Yeah, okay, slowly ahead of that.
So, okay, oh, yeah, 2006.
I thought it was 2006.
We're like four years ahead of that.
Yeah, yeah, so not crazy removed, but like still a little, a little ways off.
Okay.
This did strike me as like, this isn't quite TV fully full.
like sitcom Baldwin yet but this is probably like a significant step along the way toward that yeah and you know he he's killing it you it's funny because some of these actors we've seen feel like actors who are accustomed to being either on stage or in film who bring a natural groundedness to the friend set and there's other actors like alec Baldwin who very much play into the livelier sitcom aspects and I really appreciate that.
appreciate that. I feel like Winona Ryder did that. Yeah. Gary Olman did that for sure.
It's acting, very fun. Yeah. I felt like kind of in that more grounded camp would probably be like a Sean Penn, like a Brad Pitt. Yeah. But yeah, I think it's still fun.
Seeing the different array of guest stars. And it was a very odd little transition there from the guy who was following Phoebe everywhere who like he just so happened to be in the same place that she was.
was they didn't explicitly state that he was a stalker, but it certainly felt that way.
Yeah.
Just to get us to the Alec Baldwin dating brief storyline.
So that was fun.
And, uh, yeah, I, I really felt for Joey in this block as well, you know, holding these
feelings in to the other friends finding out, to the cliffhanger with Ross finding out,
to then him finally telling Rachel and then the way they handled that rejection scene.
I was like, okay, this was a nice little, you.
you know, momentary, not even possibility, but, but emotional arc for our friends and seeing
how they do conflict repair and then the humor that comes out of that. It was, it was great.
Oh, oh, A1 sauce.
A1 stuff. And I, I really appreciated it. And yeah, also the birthing video stuff was great. The
bath salt stuff was great. Oh my God. Chandler and the baths. Yes. And his,
and his boat to make it manly. Yes. Love all of that. Got to make it manly.
He got to make it manly.
No, we're no taking no sissy baths around here.
Ross or Rachel baby names.
I'll take a bath.
Bats are great.
Yes, it's been too long.
I want to take a bath.
Yeah, man.
Get them bubbles going.
Get that, you know, candle, whatever.
Get your freaking music.
Get your book out.
Whatever you got.
Yeah, get your wine.
Yeah, serious.
We live in an enlightened time where men are allowed to pamper themselves.
Exactly.
God, the massage therapist.
That's right.
Monica, I had Monica going to Phoebe.
finally and making all that noise.
Yep.
Making all that suggestive noise.
The locked closet.
Yeah, that's right.
Oh, my goodness.
The baby.
I like that we get, you know,
this little random babies kicking moments.
That was cute.
I can't tell with this arc.
And I've,
I've heard, you know,
it said that it's,
I've heard some friends tell me.
It's kind of a joke,
a meme of sorts in the show.
But, like, because, you know,
when, like, Phoebe was pregnant,
it seemed like Lisa Cudrow had gotten pregnant.
I cannot tell.
with Jennifer Anderson, it seems like this is more of a plot point than like a thing they needed to work around.
No, 100%. Yeah. And I looked it up and Jennifer Anderson does not have any kids. So obviously she's never been pregnant.
Yeah. And then yeah, and and Rachel like moving in with Ross like as a, you know, sometimes in the later parts of the show it feels like we've gotten away from the periods where like I remember for the first half especially we'd have like in our little six episodes.
bursts here like you'd get that be enough time to get most of an arc and a lot of times it would
kind of line up that way yeah um and so this batch kind of had that because you have you know the end
of rachel and joey living together them going through the whole like you should probably move in
with ross because ross is missing out on a lot of these crucial moments and then that you know
then goes into enhancing joey's feelings for rachel because he's probably missing her that much
more like that was that's kind of a cool like yeah arc over this uh
Yeah, and that whole thing about Joey being mistaken for the father and Ross being.
That was a moment.
I think they've done good nuances here.
They've even had opportunities where like Ross might normally, I don't know, give into his lesser instincts and make things worse.
But they kind of avoided some of that.
Yeah.
But yeah, the birthing video was pretty wild.
And the resolution on that they go through and they see the end of it.
It's beautiful and blah, blah, blah.
That's nice.
Mona
fascinating developments
him breaking into her place
to get the shirt
is crazy
that was wild
and they found
a very charmingly
sitcom way out of that
the toll for breaking
and entering
and she comes in and she's like
look I know I love you too
but we can't
and I'm like okay fine
okay that is very much
something written on the page
that a character you must say and you know
the way that scene ended was
hilarious not realistic but
very entertaining yeah
I'm sure this has happened once
in the history of human kind
yeah so anything's possible
yeah like I those are instances
where I'm like lull but also
you know it's a charming facet
of a sitcom Joey bumming the dog out
also very funny
and then yeah the Ross
Joey Rachel
feelings unlocking and stuff
like that the british man with the cheese house that was fun yeah that was a one-off that felt like
if they wanted you could have extended that but you know i'm i'm cool with the purposes of what it
served for this episode yeah i was like this guy looks familiar but and then the the the
the this sucks to be that guy with the disturbing man as wikipedia calls him because
because at first you're like oh this is kind of like a just like a normal quirky looking
dude and then you're like no they they cast him because he very quickly starts to look like a
creep no he i got creep vibes immediately and then
then they were like oh yeah he smiled he i was like that's what we're going with
because the way they framed his framed it was like he seems like he's watching her
and yeah as you could catch it's good media literacy yeah and i was like ah
that was weird but you know we could we dropped that very quickly so you know good for phoebe
i love the the rachel having to invent the crazy work problem
Selling the baby.
Selling the baby and then having Joey go in to confront the guy
and then having them be like,
we need to make this go away.
We need to have,
yeah,
like a little HR meeting to just show that we never implied that like,
I love that because it's like true to life.
You see why she would be worried about this,
but then you're like,
true to life.
I bet the company would be like,
look,
this is ridiculous,
but we just have to like absolve ourselves of any liability.
Over our ass.
Yes.
It's so funny.
I love that.
And that guy who pops up as her boss, like every once in a while to just always be in an awkward position with Rachel is like a funny, again, sitcom thing where I'm like, oh, that's got to be fun when you get the friends call.
Yeah.
Do we still think tags her assistant?
We just never.
Soft screen.
Yeah.
Like I.
We never addressed it if they broke up.
I would love it if they just put him in the background of an episode and just like never tell us explicitly.
But it's like, oh, if you look, he's actually out there.
Like, I would love that.
And then he just gets, yeah, he's never acknowledged.
But he's there.
He's just always off screen.
Yeah, that'd be fun.
Like Simon and Bridgerton season two.
Yes, IP.
But yeah, Parker.
Not RIP, just gone.
But yes, Parker was a very fun, interesting character to say the least.
Also, there's a little note here, a little detail pooh that I guess in the episode where Parker first appears that there was a shot of the Twin Towers being visible about six minutes into the episode.
I did not catch that.
I don't, I didn't explicitly catch it.
wonder if I like subconsciously because I'm so used to seeing it and we've seen so much of the show takes
place pre 9-9-11 and yeah we're watching it removed from there so there are times where I have to
remind myself where we are in time and yada yada but yeah like and and too I mean they have
throughout the season I've noticed because you guys have pointed out like the different little
tributes to the New York firefighters and all sorts of just you know like city pride
little emblems they've placed it's interesting because especially too this is right in the thick
of the time where they were removing the Twin Towers from everything
which is which is fast I'm not going to get too deep
but it is fascinating that we did that because like
you know trigger warning
has become such like a laughing topic
but like that's the OG trigger
we remove this piece of history
yeah removed something from the timeline
to not trigger people which is like which makes total sense
but it's also just fascinating yeah do you remember
the like I guess one of the original posters for Spider-Man too
was like the lens with the twin towers in his eyes
I was like, wow, that trailer that they, you can get it now, but like they took it down or they took it out of circulation where he catches the helicopter between the Twin Towers.
That's right.
Which, again, craziness.
Because, yeah, it was a weird time because it's like you get it.
On the one hand, you get it.
And on the other hand, you're like, well, we don't need to take them out of stuff that they're already in because it's also a tribute.
But, you know, that was a whole other conversation.
It's an interesting thing.
It's an interesting thing.
But, you know what else is interesting?
What it would be interesting.
What the Royal Rejects want to know about.
Yes.
Yes, it is.
So without further ado, let's find out what our friend are saying over there.
Awesome Joe movie reviews.
Happy awesome friends day.
Happy awesome friends day to you, dog.
Happy awesome Joe day.
This love story between Joey and Rachel was never really my favorite.
But what a strange.
What is strange is Rachel and Joey actually make more.
sense together than she did with Ross.
What do you guys think?
Thanks and keep staying awesome.
Awesome.
How you feel, man.
What do you think about that?
Yeah.
Like, I can't disagree in the sense that like this feels like a thing to do later on in this show.
But at the same time, at the point we're at, it is interesting and it is character-driven.
So I, and I like what they've done with it.
So, like, I like it.
I can get why it's maybe not your favorite.
And certainly as of now, I wouldn't say it's like one of the top romances of the show,
largely because it's about why it can't work thus far.
But I do kind of think it's fun, your observation that like, you know,
it's the whole opposites versus similarities thing.
It's like Rachel and Joey actually, in a lot of ways, do make sense together.
And you see them hanging out and you see what their personalities are like and what kind of walk of society.
like Joey and Rachel are similar in some capacities
in terms of like being
young adults like out there in the city and stuff
except you know Rachel is much more like used to high class living
and Joey is you know struggling and whatnot.
So like I don't know I think there's a lot with Ross
where it's like yeah it's the chemistry of the friction of the opposites and stuff
but Joey does make a lot of sense and you know I can imagine a different
I think that's part of it is like it makes more sense on paper, which is why it's more interesting that they go with Ross and Rachel.
Yeah.
You know, but yeah, what do you think?
Yeah, I think if the show never took that route, it could have been a thing.
But also the fact that Rachel and Joey were living together and they built a closer friendship.
I can arguably say that Joey and Rachel had a stronger friendship than Ross and Rachel ever did.
And yeah, it would have been.
It's certainly interesting to see what fun situations could be mind from that.
But I think what we have already established in the history of Ross and Rachel with him,
like pining off to her for years and stuff, I think that in of itself makes for a overall
more interesting and dynamic sort of relationship to see play out over the course of the seasons
because of how different they are.
Yeah.
And it's something that was established within the first couple of seasons.
So I can't say that narratively wouldn't have been interesting to then see, you know, what the three of them trying to traverse that dynamic would have been like.
But I also can appreciate the narrative courage to play with an unrequited love story will also.
So seeing how they can weave in and out of that and how their friends would respond from a place of love and maturity in the face of dealing with something that is ideally inconvenient for everybody at the time of it happening.
You know, Ross being really mature about letting his friend get his shot, Joey being upfront about the fact that he feels this way.
Rachel still loving him in spite of the fact of his confession and trying to want to repair that
relationship. I thought it was all very well handled. So, you know, I can appreciate the show for
taking a swing like that and yeah, how they moved through it. So ultimately, I think it all
worked out for the best. Here, here. Nikki Sonrisa, happy Friends Day, Jaron. Happy Friends Day to you.
Happy Friends Day, Nikki. There's some discourse in the Friends.
fandom about how Monica's character is suffering from character assassination.
Interesting.
Particularly beginning in season eight and the one where the secret closet is an episode
the one with, sorry, the secret closet is an episode that folks point to when arguing this.
What's your opinion on this?
Personally, I think Monica was probably always like this, but since she's been with Chandler,
she feels safe enough to show that side of herself.
What is your psychological analysis, Professor Alexander?
I feel like Monica's been pretty consistent,
and I feel like over the course of the show,
they've really defined her as the character that is the most.
So what's the word I'm looking for?
She really seeks approval while also simultaneously really wanting to be in control
with a sense of order.
And independence.
And independence, yes.
And I think that the way that the show has treated her throughout these years has felt fairly
consistent.
She's the one who has the OCD, who is good at cooking, who is super enthusiastic.
And I feel like for her to have something that is a source of shame for her, that is
her own version of mess, that is hidden from the rest of the friends.
and but is organized in her own sort of way.
It is, I guess, an initial viewing or not even, yeah, I guess initial viewing, it feels
unexpected, but also makes sense for who she is.
I'm like, yeah, I'm sure over the course of the year she's been there, she's acquired a lot
of stuff and not enough place to put it anywhere.
But if you were to put it somewhere, having it in a way where you've had your own
little tucked away version of hoarding.
I'm like, yeah, sure.
I can see that from Monica.
Why not?
Everything else about her still feels very consistent.
Yeah, I think that Chandler probably has changed the most.
Yeah.
I would say that.
He's matured the most.
But Monica feels pretty much the same to me.
What about you?
Yeah, I mean, like there are things over time.
It's interesting to point to this episode.
because I get why.
I wonder if there have been moments over time
where Monica has had responses to things
or they've found little plot lines.
And I'm trying to think of a good example.
But there are moments, most notably, perhaps,
during their wedding, where I was like,
I feel like Monica would have slightly more specific feelings
about any number of things.
And that kind of felt like there were just many plot lines
and time constraints that kept it
so that we didn't do much of that conflict.
I don't know.
Like, it's interesting because I think that, yeah, this stage in the game, they're doing
slightly more interesting stuff with other characters.
Like, I think Monica and Chandler right now are kind of doing couple stuff, which is fun,
which is fine.
I like watching them together.
I like watching them with the group.
That's tricky because, like, this, I think it really is a, it's a good, like, fulcrum point
for this argument.
I can see it.
It's like, if you already have noted moments where Monty, you know,
Monica would have behaved differently in the past or been more particular.
It's usually coming down to that.
It's like her being unparticular about something or un-controlling of something or un-like or allowing of disorganization.
That whole thing where she like follows the maid he hires around, you know, feels like a very Monica thing to do.
So like when there are situations, them, you know, being forced to redo all the CDs feels like something Monica would care about.
And it's like that granular thing.
So, like, part of me feels like it is funny.
I see what they're getting at to be like, ah, this neat freak who is known for being so particular and, you know, needs things a certain way, has this closet that is a mess.
But even to them, this mess is in a specific order and there's like an ADD brain person as a neurodivergent person.
I get that feeling for sure.
100%.
Same time.
Like, yeah, I'm like, was that always the thing?
I think it's the additional execution around it.
I think like there's enough other stuff that's not as tight in the characterization as before,
and it's just not really accounted for.
So it does feel a little bit like, oh, is that really a choice Monica would make?
But like, I don't know.
They haven't done anything to me that, like, so betrays her to the point where it's, like, big distracting.
But I can kind of get an inkling for why people might feel this way.
and I do think that like Monica plot lines
I like again I like Monica and Chandler together
and there have been some highlights of their recent threads
and stuff like that
but yeah I mean like my favorite Monica plots
have not been like a lot of the super recent ones
so I can kind of get how maybe they have been boiled down
more to again situations it's like give them a game
it feels like kind of what they're doing with Monica and Chandler
at the moment is like give them a yeah thing to do uh and i don't know yeah it's it's interesting
i'd have to reflect a bit more on this i don't i don't feel i'm not sitting here feeling uh as
strongly but again we don't have the totality of it in the time removal yeah this is true yeah
it's like i can feel it like with chanler it feels more like oh this character has grown
which is why he's a bit different now whereas so much of that has come through monica's
influence whereas i don't feel like certain ways in which
she's maybe more loose now have like been motivated by Chandler or something like that like so I don't know
it's interesting I would say it's it's more loose and less defined than before by comparison to certain
other characters but I'll be kind of having an eye on that too as we continue along uh because yeah
they're not really the drivers of like super consequential stuff at the moment um and I don't know like
her meeting that guy that Phoebe brings around
and then having the whole soulmates,
like I don't believe in soulmates
and, you know, like the cheese house
that would be so hard to clean.
Like there are things about that plot line
I almost think could have been paid off
more richly, you know,
because it's, it is like she meets somebody
who's very much like her
and they are a great example of a relationship
that thrives on the, you know,
contrast chemistry.
Yeah.
You know.
Yeah, I don't know.
I'm fascinated by this.
And we'll just keep on,
keeping on engaging it
it. I can see though like what your head cannon is like I'm kind of inclined toward that the
idea that yeah, this has always been I would believe that someone who's as much of a neat freak
and yeah, who lives in the city. And even though this apartment is huge for anybody's, you know,
young people's standards, there's only so much space and they have been living here a long time.
So I think you're right. It's like, you know, you have an overflow room or a storage closet.
No. Or something. Even if you are a neat freak.
I think it's hilarious. I want to go back. It's like, has that door always been there?
there and we just never addressed it this entire time which is funny and and too i'm like that's
another thing where i'm like well how do you pay that off because it's been here for so long and
and i'm like well it's kind of in character so like that's a nice choice on this other hand i'm
like part of me is like man if it had been something crazier to give us like a weirder development
than like a very understandable development like i don't know there's a there's a little bit
it's a schrodinger's closet it would have been a fun thing if like they it had been a running
joke from the beginning of the show like what's in that closet and monica's like don't touch
shit yeah that would have a maybe an episode where you think you find out like it's a dream
it's like it's like it's like super weird with it like it's an alternate dimension yeah yeah yeah
and then you wake up absurd with it yeah yeah then or you treat it like um like pulp fiction
like you see them looking into it but you never actually see what's in there that would have been
fun yeah but yeah in uh yeah just a gold light yeah the tarantino trunk light yes in another
life though but yeah i think monica's largely
The same, who knows, maybe she can drastically change the next two seasons.
And if he does, we'll call it out.
Yeah.
So thanks, Nikki, for bringing it to our attention.
We're going to look now.
Yeah.
Jay rushed in to ask a question on that question is, what is your favorite Alec Baldwin performance there?
Oh, golly.
Favorite Alec Baldwin performance?
The boss baby.
The boss baby is honestly hard to beat.
How could she possibly be the boss?
the boss baby, Alec Baldwin.
I mean, golly.
I've not seen the part in a very long time.
So I didn't even know he's in that.
Yeah, he's in that.
There's so many freaking Baldwin.
My favorite performance is Rust.
I'm joking.
For the gallows.
I'm joking.
And straight for the gallows.
I forgot he played himself in a Starzborn.
I mean, I know a lot of people would throw out Jack Donagie.
very, very, very fun to watch him in that mode.
And sitcom Baldwin is a great, you know, unlockable character for sure.
I mean, you know, I feel like I'm scrolling his IMDB page partly because I feel like
I probably have a better answer, like hidden in here.
I do like him and Gina Davis a ton in Beetlejuice and I think the one thing.
Oh, yes, he's great in Beetlejuice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he's in, and that's kind of, at the point in time where I associate him more as just a guy,
you know, rather than like, oh, shit, that's.
Alec Baldwin.
So, you know, even though he was
certainly prominent then. But like, that was
something watching Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice that I really
missed was the energy that the both
of them brought, but largely him as well,
you know, brought. And so I think he is great
in that movie.
Doing the thing.
And I'm looking at names. And I mean,
Hunt for Red October is a movie
that I grew up with. I need to watch that one.
And, uh, and yeah, it's like a Jack
Ryan. It's a Jack, early Jack
Ryan's got a Sean Connery in as
like a submarine movie and alec baldwin i remember that's one that i've seen but not in a long enough
time to be like that's a favorite but i do remember him always being like really gripping and
he's like the lead of that movie so like you know i would shout out hunt for red october for sure
um yeah man i guess i guess beetle juice would be it for me then beetlesuice and the boss baby
Hey man, that's
The boss baby
Spinoff crossover movie
The boss baby won an academy or was at least nominated for an academy award
If the Royal Tenenbaum counts he's the narrator and he's you know very distinct
I mean the the Alec Baldwin narration circa Wes Anderson is very distinct
I did not know he appeared on an episode of Johnny Bravo or that he narrated Thomas and friends
I didn't know that either.
Yeah, that's pretty crazy.
I remember him as Dennis.
That was fine.
Dennis, I changed my answer because he and I've referenced it.
He grows the mustache because he's so manly.
Yes.
And then they sing now that we're men.
Now that we're men.
Now that we're men.
They have become our friends.
Now that we're men.
Yeah, he's on the Simpsons too a couple times.
Yeah, SpongeBob.
