Chandler and Joey are roommates. Monica and Rachel live across the hall. Phoebe and Monica used to be roommates. Ross and Monica are siblings and Chandler and Ross were college roommates. It was on for 10 seasons.

Chandler and Monica get married. Ross and Rachel end up together.

These are much funnier in context. The show is hilarious. Should check it out.

Chandler was always my favorite. Reruns on FOX in the afternoon during dinner, every night. RIP Ms. Chanandler Bong

It still doesn't seem real that Matthew Perry is gone. I loved his sarcasm and self-depricating humor. What is going on is that Chandler was secretly dating Monica and Joey was friends with him and trying to help keep the secret. A lot of awkward and funny situations arose due to that secret. Those were not the funniest scenes. I still can't forget when Phoebe got a monkey, and when she was trying to show rock star Chrissy Hynde how to sing.😅

The elevator pitch for Friends was, "It's about the time in your life when your friends are like your family." It's had the staying power it has had for a reason. It's not a highbrow sitcom, but it is very well cast, smartly written, and endearing. It's the epitome of TV comfort food. I think both of those things are why people are so particularly sad to hear about Matthew Perry. It hits right in a lot of people's comfort/happy place. And also, it is well known that the cast of this show are those found family level of friends among each other. (They famously renegotiated their contracts together and equally when the show became famous.) So, we know that the real-life counterparts of our TV "friends" just suffered a loss as big as it would be for the fictional characters, which makes it seem a bit more personal or "real" than just hearing about any other celebrity death. But if you wanted a mainstream sitcom to react to, it would be a good choice.

In some ways it's very similar to Seinfeld, which was on at the same time.

Well done. Even though the clips are a bit out of context;' some of the basic humor still holds up. It was the characterizations, all of their interactions, and the ridiculous situations that they all found themselves in. The writing was super crisp and smart. Never gets old. Watched the episodes 20 some years ago and still catch random reruns when I can. Each episode has a crazy story line, but loads of other story lines weave in and out, throughout the 10 years of the show.

I've seen most episodes several times and absolutely love the show, but those clips are so much better with more context. I think you'd find them a lot funnier if you knew things that led up to those moments. It's definitely worth diving into.

We can't really explain to you what's going on in each scene or else it'll spoil it for you! You must watch this show, c'mon, You'll love it as much as we do, I promise!

Dude, just give up and binge watch them all. You'll get it AND laugh yourself silly.

For context: There were 236 episodes of Friends in total. Friends was a force when it was on the air from 1994 to 2004. It was a top 10 show for NBC every year, averaging 25 million viewers a week, and was the No. 1 comedy for six consecutive years.

“Oh my God!” Janice has a um unique laugh and is generally seen as annoying by everyone. She’s a reoccurring character and Chandler’s ex actually who we meet for the first time in the same episode he dumps her in… for the first time.

@@3DJapan Funny, and yes it feels that way, but clearly he doesn't dump her in the episode where she goes out with Ross (and there were others). Lol :)

Classic and you’re correct, this humor can span generations.

Matthew Perry is my favorite friend. I still can't believe he's gone. I cried so much when I found out he died. I love friends. I think I've watched every episode a hundred times.

Lmao, the first clip already got me. He was dating Monica at the time so he kissed her to say goodbye but then realized he did it in front of everyone and then claimed it was because of "Europe" that he had to kiss everyone before saying goodbye. Rachel calls him out on it afterwards. Phoebe was mad at Ross because of a dream she had about him lol. I wish they showed that part because that was the funny part of the whole segment. Surprised Kabir isn't in with the Friends knowledge lol. My wife and I use quotes from it relatively often as jargon when making jokes with friends. Matthew Perry honestly helped an entire generation mold around his dry, witty, sarcastic humor of which I still love.

Friends has some truly hilarious moments. These weren't even the funniest to me, lol. They were pretty good tho. Still, if there are more videos like this, you might wanna do another reaction to it so you can get a little more context. It really is super funny. It's a good way to honor Matthew Perry's memory too. Happy Halloween, Kabir!! 🎃👻😈

RIP Matthew Perry!

I remember watching the show when it originally aired. I'd watch it with my brother, the show is hysterical, I have the collection on dvd. It's gonna be hard to watch knowing Matthew passed away. His character Chandler was awesome. Matthew was incredible he really showed what a great actor and his talent for being a jokester. Fun fact, he was allowed in the writers room, so he could get his own jokes on the show. He will never be forgotten, still shocked and saddened he's gone.

I was also saddened to hear he'd passed away. He gave us years of joy. I watch so many shows these days with stars who've already passed, so I don't think I'll struggle to continue watching Friends, but it's weird. Matthew Perry was only a year older than me, and my Dad just passed away a few months ago, and this year feels so surreal to me. I will be glad to move on to 2024.

Friends along with Three's Company and Married With Children are shows you have to watch before you die. They are true works of comedic art!

RIP Mattew Perry... When they were casting the actors of Friends, he was casted on another show. He helped some actors get ready to audition for the role Chandler in Friends but non of them were picked, until he auditioned himself & was casted. Everyone who worked with him talked about how he always wanted to make others laugh

It's much funnier when seen in context. Those who've seen the show know what was going on around these clips. But to someone who never watched, they don't get the full effect. Seinfeld is like that too

It was part of Must See Thursday TV. The humor and situations still hold up nearly 20 years after it ended.

One of the season's story lines was that Chandler and Monica were secretly dating because they were afraid what Ross (Monica's brother) reaction would be. This was like the 7th or 8th season of the series.

I was in high school when it came out. Chandlers character was always my favorite. I will always remember Matthew Perry for his role as Carol Seavers boyfriend Sandy, in Growing Pains. Rest well Matthew.

man there were many waaaaaay funnier scenes than in this compilation. R.I.P. Matthew Perry

Definitely a series worth watchng. Iconic!

Monica and Rachel live together. Joey and Chandler live together. Monica and Ross are brother and sister. Phoebe is their friend.

Rachel went to high school with Monica and Ross had a crush on her. Chandler was Ross’s college roommate. Technically Phoebe and Joey are relative outsiders: Monica’s ex-roommate in the apartment who secretly moved out because Monica’s too hard to live with and the dim guy who winds up being Chandler’s roommate in his apartment.

So much back story to those scenes that out of context wouldn't be the same and not able to portray how funny those moments really were.

I still watch this everyday. It's on for hours! I love it.❤

You can't really appreciate Friends or get why it was so beloved by just watching a few out of context clips. This show ran for 10 years, and it was an ongoing, complex storyline. Think of it as a very long, very awesome "slow burn". We loved it so much because every single character was real to us. We experienced every moment along with them. They were like family to us. My best advice if you want to truly experience this wonderful show is to start at the very beginning. 😊💖

I think for these scenes to be truly appreciated, you have to have background information and context. Knowing that is what makes them so funny - so I recommend you watch the show, from season 1 - it's worth it 😁

Funny show. I can frequently relate different life events (not mine) to a “Friends” episode. You really need to see to show to appreciate these clips.

One of the best shows. Definitely recommend!

Best show ever! Highly recommend!

I ❤ that you did this.

I can’t believe you’ve never watched Friends. It’s really funny, you should give it a go.

Brits didn’t get Friends? Aussie here, I’ve watched repeat after repeat of Friends for years and still never get sick of the show. It’s Brilliant. And the sad recent passing of Mathew Perry, aka (Chandler Bing in the show) was such a shock and heartbreaking 💔

Oh please do the shows! I love Friends

I grew up with Friends..it's been in my life ever since, I always watch when I want to laugh or when I'm feeling a bit down...I am absolutely devastated by the death of Matthew...it honestly feels like a friend has died😔

I think it’s worth a watch through on your channel, 2-3 eps at a time

Kabir, have you ever watched “Coupling”? It’s like a raunchier UK Friends. That one guy from Pirates of the Caribbean played Steve on the show.

5:23 Secret time: I was on the coffee shop set once and we weren't supposed to touch anything but I leaned on this green chair.

The first scene was Monica and Chandler were dating and didn't want the group to know yet. Chandler kissed all 3 to cover his tracks 😂

In that first clip, he was dating the girl with black hair, Monica, but nobody else knew it, and he realized he just kissed her in front of the other 2 girls, so he had to play it off.

I highly recommend you watch this from the beginning. It was an amazing show!

You should react to the full episodes 😁😁

Loved the show Friends... RIP Matthew Perry 😢

Great sitcom! RIP Matthew Perry

Do you remember the show “coupling” that was the British version of this show. Not exactly the same, but they came out about the same time.

You have to watch the show to understand what's going on and YES you have to start with the very first episode and watch them in order

You should watch this show. Look up clips off Janice and you will see 😂. It’s an amazing show and actually got me thru a lot of depression. I have tons of friends memorabilia and have watch all 10 seasons more times than I can count. Many big celebrities guest star like Bruce Willis and Denise Richard’s to name a few. Very much worth the watch. I cried when I found out he past. Like many ppl have said they have never mourned like this for someone they never met. I’m in the middle of reading his book. He was looking forward to his book tour which unfortunately won’t happen now.

Rip Matthew he will be missed for everything he did and made me want to be more funny

In later seasons, Monica and Chandler were seeing one another but didn't want the others to know.

Friends was the best Sit-Com ever created. You should give it a try. Matthew Perry was my favorite. May he rest in peace.

Even the theme song was big.

A great show, but you need to see all of the episodes.😊

My poor youth 😂😂

You should react to Friends!!!

No no no........now you need to just start reacting to the whole series!!!

I think you'd really like friends and I feel like your analysis would be interesting if you ever did decide to watch it ☺️

Definitely dive into FRIENDS!! Its hilarious! Those clips were barely a taste.

Pivot! Pivot! Pivot!

In the first scene, Chandler and Monica were hiding that they were dating, so when he slipped and kissed Monica, he kissed Rachel and Pheobe to play it off…

R.I.P Matthew Perry ❤😢

I always thought that, "Friends" was a "rip-off" of "Seinfield" but then Friends got super popular. Anyway, I loved the show.

So, most of them live in the same apartment building

0:55 At this point he was with Monica but it was a secret and he slipped up by kissing her so he was trying to cover it up.

Every clip is confusing af without context lol

They were trying to hide the relationship between Monica and Chandler.

I don't think these were the best intro clips to watch. How about react to the pilot, and if you like that, continue watching the show? It's wonderful and evolves over time as the audience knows all the characters better over the years. :) Oh, and thanks for reacting to it, Kabir! RIP Matthew Perry. You will be missed.

Just watch the show!!!

Kabir, my wife has watched Coronation Street for 30 + years.

Part of the appeal is how close and connected the actors - i.e., the real people, not just the characters - became right away. They advocated for each other, including during contract negotiations to ensure they all made the same amount of money per episode. I was going out and having way too much fun to watch the show when it was airing, but I've seen it all since. Don't miss the blooper reels. Absolutely hilarious. Unpopular opinion, but the only thing that never resonated for me was the Chandler/Monica love connection. You can't put two of the most neurotic characters together.

They don't all live in the same apartment the guys live in one apartment across hall are the girls

Do the show!

Aw this is gonna be sad today

You've got to know their characters.

RIP Matthew Perry. He was the best

RIP Matthew Perry.

Monica and chandler sneaking around (b4 everyone found out) was my favorite part of the whole series, poor Joey got done dirty😂😂😂, they were my 2 fave out of the 6 friends, Ross and Rachel were my least favorite especially when they started dating, but thats for another day😅

They live in the same apartment building.

R.I.P. Chandler Bing 💔

So many store lines going on it would be difficult to watch clips and make sense of them without knowing the background of the shows.

Ah the memories. Chandler Bing aka Matthew Perry RIP.

Janice is Chandler's on again off again gf, whose laugh sounds a dolphin's laugh

I'm still hurt he's gone

your missing out man

ok Joey and Chandelier live across the hall from monica and rachel phebe lives with her Grandmother Ross lives in another apt Monica and Ross are brother and sister you would have to get season one to understand what happened ,,,,,,,,,,,,

The show was inspired Buy another show called living singles

I never enjoyed Friends but his death was a bit hard.

There's a lot funnier moments then these highly recommend watching Chandlers best moments or Joey's

You really need some context to fully sppreciate most of these clips, if you've never seen the show alot of it will go straight over your head

Some of this makes no sence if yoy hace not watched it. I think for funny stuff look at chandler, joey or phoebes stuff as they are funny. Or look and joey and chandler. Or js watch it

A lot of these you really need to watch the show to understand what is going on. Great reaction though.

Too bad it bit off Living Single, HARD

You never seen Friends?? Really?? You missing out.

A lot of these clips would have been funnier with more context

Never understood why this was so popular. Silly people's silly problems.

These clips don’t really work without the context

I can tell you that these are NOT the funniest moments in Friends ! Maybe you should watch it, you will spend a nice journey 😉

Virtually everything here, you need context for or it won't make any sense.
