  So they're showing series 10 of Friends here in Korea, 3 times a week. As I said before, the first episode was shite (although I failed to mention Chandler's reference to Buckwheat (AKA Mike Shitter, which slightly redeemed it). The second episode ruled though, with Chandler and Monica visiting Phoebe's friends who had adopted, and Chandler inadvertently spilling the beans.
Emma's birthday episode kicked arse too, but was followed by the wankest episode ever (even worse than those 'random clip' ones they like to throw together, the cheap bastards). Reasons for this: Christina Applegate is shit. I hate her. You should too. And don't start the "But Dan, she's foxy" argument with me either. So is practically every other bird who goes on the show, and they manage to be funny. Worst character ever. Worst writing ever. She was on the show before and was nothing special, but here they crank her bitchiness and irresponsibility up to 11 to give us the illusion we're watching something new and funny. Fact: the writers think you're stupid. She really wouldn't be so bad if we hadn't seen her character acted and written much better before. Reese Witherspoon - better looking and funnier. Are we really expected to believe she thought Ross was a falafel seller?
This dumbass story takes up about 2/3 of the episode. Mike proposing to Phoebe (actually pretty funny) was treated like an afterthought. Joey, Monica and Chandler might as well not have been in it, save the funniest moment of the episode, when they're talking about Joey's reference letter for the adoption agency: Monica: It doesn't make any sense. Joey: Of course it does. It's smart! I used a thesaurus! Chandler: On every word? Joey: Yep. Monica: All right, what was this sentance, originally? Joey: Oh. "They're warm, nice people with big hearts.
" Chandler: And that became, "They're humid, pre-possessing homosapiens with full-sized aortic pumps? " Fortunately, the best moment in Friends, maybe ever, came in the next episode. Can't remember for the life in me what the episode was about (I think Greg Kinnear was in it), but ladies and gentlemen, I give you.... Ichiban: Lipstick for men!!
