Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the best seasons
Review: This is one of the best seasons with two of the greatest episodes ever. The One Hundreth is a classic and is a showcase for Lisa Kudrow's immense talent. She should have won a Emmy for this season, she was simply robbed this year. She was LOL funny and yet still tender and sweet at the end of the episode. The rest of the cast has great side stories such as Joey getting "KIDDNEY STONE".
The One Where Everyone Finds out has to be the best Friends episode of all time. All the characters (except for Ross) are given great comedic moments. This episode really is a farce and on of the best examples of it. Again Lisa Kudrow is halarious "My Eyes, My Eyes"!
One of the best things about Season 5 is that all the characters are given a story line they can ride without guest stars getting in the way Pheobe had the babies and the cop. Monica and Chandler had their relationship to deal with. Ross loses his job, marriage and apartment all at the same time and must deal with being single again, leading to some great dates. Rachel must deal with a new job and the Yeti. And Joey, well Joey never had to deal much with anything besides being Joey. Another classic episode is the One With all the Thanksgivings. Excellent.
As always this set has 4 discs with the basic fold out package.
I was not completley impressed with the extras. The Friends sets have never included alot. In this set you get Comentaries on the three episodes I have mentioned and two documentaries. The documentaries were quite good and very insitful. The comentaries were good but anyone more that a casual fan probally already knew all they said. All in all the second best season in Friends history.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Season five
Review: I think this is the best season. So much went on... Joey finding out about Chandler and Monica because of the hotel in Atlantic City calling Joey about the eyelash curler left in the hotel room and then Monica asks Rachel for one.

One of the funniest moments was:
'Atleast I got to see Donald Trump waiting by an elevator'
'Oh yeah at the Taj Mehal he has his own private elevator, a glass elevator, made by Otis Elevators, and they usually don't do glass'
'What kinds of things do you KNOW?'

anyway, its great to pull out on a rainy weekend
