Summary: The Best of Friends, is defenitely the Best!
Review: I only recently started watching 'Friends', and I was greatful for this DVD, because it allowed me to watch some of the older episodes, as well as flash back episodes which helped me put all of the jokes together. Not only did this collection document the shows story lines develop, but it also documented how much the show itself developed. In the beginning it was truly a show about nothing, now, it has elaborate themes, jokes and inside jokes which only the seasoned 'Friends' watchers can enjoy. Buying this insures that you get the episodes you know and love forever. It also insures that you get a good quality filming of it.

Pilot- A wonderful intro to 'Friends'. It gives a flavor of all that Friends is. 1. Rachel has a dilemma after running out on her wedding. 2. Monica has boyfriend trouble, 3. Ross has a hysterical crisis after a divorce. It has all three of the kinds of plots and story lines you can expect from friends.

The One with the Two Parts- A delightful hour about virtually nothing. An hour of pure laughs and hysteria! No 'Friends' fan can go without this one!

The One with all the Poker- The name speaks for itself...another very funny one!

The One Where Ross Finds Out- Amazing! Hysterical! Just watch it!

The One with the Prom Video- One of the most serious shows in the group, but still, hysterical.

The One Where No One's Ready- Another classic example of the Friends about nothing, a true classic.

The One With the Embryos- A 'Friends' classic. Who can forget the famous bet between Monica/Rachel and Joey/Chandler? Miss Chanadaler Bong suggests you see it.

The One With Ross's Wedding- Obviously a must-see!

The One With All the Thanksgivings- A wonderful flash back episode of things you knew and didn't know!

The One Where Everybody Finds Out- One of my favorite all time friends. Everybody Finds out is in reference to Monica and Chandler, and it is hysterical!

I hope this review helps in pursuading you to buy this wonderful, useful product.

Summary: A MUST For All "Friends" Fans!!
Review: If you are a fan of the hit TV show, "Friends", you must have this set, on either VHS or DVD. The DVD does give you a clearer picture than even the TV show could give you, but both formats have the same thing. Each epiosde has little snippets from the show that have never been seen before, which makes the episodes even funnier. I am a fan of volume 2 because my favorite is "The One With The Embryos" (or, as I call it, "The One With The Game Show"). Volume 1 has a few I don't particularly care for, such as the pilot (or First episode) and "The One With Two Parts" where we meet Phoebe's (Lisa Kudrow)sister, Ursula (also played by Kudrow).The other cast members (Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer, and especially Matthew Perry), are just funny and brilliant. Other episodes include "The One Where No One's Ready" , "The One Where Everyone Finds Out"(both Vol. 2), "The One With All The Poker", and "The One With The Prom Video" (both Vol. 1). Long live the Friends, my favorite comedy of ALL-TIME!!

Summary: A must have for Friends fans!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: irresistible comedy
Review: FRIENDS is one of the most loved and successful sitcoms ever made and its not hard to see why. A talented ensemble cast, great recurring characters and flawless scripts and direction all come together to create one fabulous series!

Jennifer Aniston (Rachel), Courteney Cox Arquette (Monica), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe), Matt Le Blanc (Joey), Matthew Perry (Chandler) and David Schwimmer (Ross), all add pathos and charm to their portrayals of six singles friends who help each other through the pitfalls and anguish of being single in New York City.

There's Monica and Ross's parents (Elliot Gould and Christina Pickles), Rachel's mother (Marlo Thomas), irritating ex-girlfriend-of-Chandler Janice (Maggie Wheeler), Ross's lesbian ex-wife Carol (Jane Sibbert), and the list goes on...........

Every single episode of FRIENDS has been released on video in Australia, each season has a 6-video set, 4 eps on each tape.

The series holds up beautifully with repeat viewings, and there's always something you pick up that you did not notice before.

Marta Kauffman and David Crane have to be commended for creating the endearing, wickedly comical FRIENDS.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Thesen Kick A**
Review: All the people who have said that these are a rip off are not true friends fans. i own every friends episode from series 1-6 and have already pre-ordered series 7 which for the time-being i have recorded. but all ive ever wanted were best of's and best of ross and racheal videos. i have even tried creating my own but it takes a lot of time and effort. however i dont have tto bother with this because its all here. the only thing i would say is the best of ross and racheal video should include more like the one in vegas were they get married or sries 7 episode 1 where they kiss AGAIN!! keep em coming warner and release them in the uk as they will sell BIG!! 10/10

Summary: What? They're planning the entire season release???
Review: Well, that sort of irks me, but still, this dvd set is very funny. The best part to me, as an audiophile, is that the series has been remastered in dolby digital (although 5.0, not 5.1). My only complaint is the whole deleted scenes claim. I have NO idea which scenes were in the original and which ones were not. i wish they'd give you some sort of clue, whether it be an extra in the dvd or a pop up icon (like the rabbit in the matrix) to let you know.

If you like friends and you don't want to wait for the season releases, pick this up. It's fun to watch.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: If you are a "Friends" fan like me, DON'T BUY THIS!
Review: When I first heard the they were having these couple episodes of the on DVD, I was very happy. I pre-ordered the set. But then I heard the news that Warner Brothers just released this set as a test to see if people would actually buy them. Knowing now that the DVDs were successful, they are going to begin releasing the show in seasons later this year. Instead of having to settle for the supposed 10 best episodes, you will be able to enjoy the series as a whole. So, don't waste money now with these, because in a few months us "Friends" fans will finally get what all of the "X-Files" and "Sopranos" people already have, the complete release.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's good
