Movie Reviews of The Best of Friends Collection (Vols. 1-4)

Movie Review: Great Collection
Summary: 5 Stars

If you love "Friends," and most people do, you need to get this collection. If you do not plan on buying every season of the show, then this collection has twenty of the most popular (and pivotal) episodes in the series with all their original footage, some of which had been edited out for TV. Even if you do plan on buying all the season sets, it will be awhile before they all get here, so this is a good collection to tide you over until they do. The format of the DVD's is great. You can play all of the episodes at once without have to go back to the menu after each episode, or you can watch one at a time. There are also some cool special features - a behind-the-scenes special and a feature on the trip to London. Here are episodes you will get on each volume, along with my personal grade on each (scale of 1 to 5):

Volume 1:
"Pilot" (3) Not my favorite episodes, but this is where it all started.

"The One with the Two Parts" (4) Joey dates Phoebe's twin sister; Monica and Rachel go out with two doctors (George Clooney and Noah Wyle).

"The One with All the Poker" (4) The girls want to play poker with the guys.

"The One Where Ross Finds Out" (3) Rachel leaves a drunken message for Ross, telling him that she is over him, leaving Ross confused.

"The One with the Prom Video" (4) Joey buys Chandler a friendship bracelet; Ross and Rachel finally get together.

Volume 2:
"The One Where No One's Ready" (5) Ross is giving a speech at a dinner and has trouble trying to get everyone ready to go. One of my personal favorites.

"The One with the Embryo's" (4) Phoebe decides to have her brother's baby; Rachel and Monica lose a bet and have to trade apartments with Joey and Chandler.

"The One with Ross's Wedding" (4) Everyone goes to London for Ross's wedding.

"The One with All the Thanksgivings" (5) My favorite holiday episode. Everyone remembers their worst Thanksgivings.

"The One Where Everybody Finds Out" (5) Phoebe finds out about Monica and Chandler.

Volume 3:
"The One with the Blackout" (3) There's a blackout in the city; Chandler gets trapped in an ATM vestibule with Jill Goodacre; Rachel meets Paulo when Ross is just about to make his move.

"The One with the Candy Hearts" (3) Chandler goes on a blind date that turns out to be Janice, and they get back together on Valentine's Day.

"The One Where Ross and Rachel...You Know" (3) Ross and Rachel go on their first date.

"The One with the Football" (3) Monica's and Ross's competitive natures come out when they play football on Thanksgiving.

"The One That Could Have Been" (4) The gang wonders what their lives would be like if they had done things differently. One full hour of Fat Monica and a whole new opening credit sequence.

Volume 4:
"The One with Chandler in a Box" (5) Another great Thanksgiving episode. Joey makes Chandler sit in a box to make up for stealing his girlfriend.

"The One Hundredth" (4) Phoebe gives birth to triplets.

"The One with All the Resolutions" (5) Everyone makes New Years' Resolutions.

"The One Where Ross Got High" (5) Yet another great Thanksgiving episode. One of my all-time favorite scenes was toward the end when everyone lets out all their frustrations to the Gellar parents.

"The One with the Proposal" (4) Tom Selleck shows up as Monica's ex-boyfriend just as Chandler is about to propose.

I might have chosen a few episodes differently, but overall this is a great collection. Even when I think I am sick of seeing certain episodes, I find that I can still watch them. A scene will always come along that just cracks me up. These shows never get old.
