View Full Version : What was the first Friends episode you saw?
Friendsfan#555 05-15-2004, 07:13 PM What was the first friends episode you ever watched?
Mine was the TOW Ross' New Girlfriend. My sister got the second season DVD and I decided to sit down and watch one episode and I ended up watching half the season that night.
"The One With The Butt" (original NBC airing)
Dean Winchester 05-15-2004, 08:39 PM the pilot on it's original airing
Nanny Fine 05-16-2004, 12:08 PM The Pilot on it's original air date, first thing in 1994. I've been with this show from the beginning.
Janet McFarland 05-16-2004, 05:37 PM The first one I saw was TOW Rachel's Baby Shower.
Joker85 05-16-2004, 07:56 PM The pilot, first run. This is one of the few sitcoms I've watched since the beginning.
zuco74 05-17-2004, 05:36 PM The first one I saw was TW Where No One's Ready....
Was my first time really sitting down and watching friends and I thought then and still do now, that this is one thier funniest episodes...
Needless to say I was hooked after that...
:)
peter may 05-18-2004, 03:46 PM mine was "the one with the Ick Factor" way back in 1995 -- I love that episode!
McFly121 05-28-2004, 06:08 PM The pilot, which I thought was atrocious. I tried three more eps and gave up. Then a year goes by and there's all this buzz, tv guide, magazines, entertainment shows, the big premiere of season 2 with Ross getting off the plane. So I'm like ok I'll give them one more shot. It was the ep where Chandler blows it, Joey is a giving lover, and Rachel goes to the airport. Thought it was hilarious, the show had really improved. Since then top-notch. But still in watching the season 1 eps I missed, I can't stand them. The writing just wasn't there for me...yet.

I am very stubborn when it comes to new shows. I usually think they're going to be stupid and not going to last. So I didn't watch Friends from the beginning. A friend of mine told me it was pretty good but that still didn't convince me. Then when George Clooney & Noah Wyle were going to appear on it, being a fan of George, I watched this episode-The One With Two Parts. I thought the exchange between Monica as Rachel and Rachel as Monica when they were telling the guys about each other was hilarious!! I just knew they had to put that in the clip show. So since then, I've been watching it.
Chambers 05-31-2004, 02:32 PM I watched the pilot in the original airing too. I'm also skeptical when it comes to new shows, and I thought the pilot was just OK. But then I tuned in the following week...and the week after that ...and then I was hooked. Eventually, I lost interest in the show but still watched ocassionally. I did miss the finale, however. I don't think I've ever seen a sitcom's finale in the original airing. I always manage to miss them.

ultimatetvfan 07-16-2004, 08:08 PM I'm not sure what the episode is called but it is one when Ross has one of the guys post it on the internet that he died to get people to notice him. Then they have a fake party and Ross hides in the bathroom and then comes out.
Superstar 07-17-2004, 05:38 AM That episode from season 9 (I can't remember what its called either)
I can't really remember my first episode...it was probably about season 3 or 4
CarJackSnyder 07-18-2004, 01:18 PM The first episode I saw was TOW No Ones Ready!! This is now one of my favorite episodes!! :D :) :D :)
Ohio8 08-17-2004, 10:07 PM I moved to Cleveland on Sep. 10, 1994, and I didn't get cable installed right away -- I think -- so I might've missed the pilot, and possibly the second one as well.
rossnrach4ever 08-18-2004, 02:30 PM I can't remember the first but i remember when i saw the guys..i thought Matthew Perry was hot...wasn't that excited about matt leblanc because i saw him on married with children as a dumb Italian guy..hmm and i thought the guy with the monkey was a total nerd...boy has my opinion changed...that guy with the monkey is my favorite...yes you guessed ross..what a difference ten years makes.
mad4mad 10-16-2004, 05:34 PM TOW Chandler Doesn't Like Dogs
Season 7 but it still feels like Ive been watching it forever bc Ive seen every one
barwars 10-17-2004, 10:53 PM "The Pilot"
when it first aired on TBS.
I was interested at first, but soon lost all desire to watch it.
It became one of my least favorite shows.
Then, I watch the finale on NBC, and really started to like, I bought Seasons 1 and 2 immediately, bought Season 3 a few weeks ago, and bought Season 4 today.
It's now one of my favorites.
slackermonkey 10-17-2004, 11:43 PM "TOW The Boobies."
It's since become my favorite sitcom ever.
Chambers 10-18-2004, 04:20 PM The pilot when it first aired in the UK.
I knew didn't think it was a great show, but the more I watched, the more I realized how funny it was.
Jason16 10-29-2004, 06:04 PM The first episode i saw was
"The one where Ross cant flirt" season 5
I saw this episode for the time on TBS when i was on holiday in Jamaica.
MrsRitter 02-04-2006, 11:09 PM i do not remmeber the first one i watched...when it started i was onlt 3 so maybe thats why....i remember watching the one where joey goes.."you have 2 new messages, please pass the apple pie" because my brother always used to say it after that..like when we came home from somewhere and we would check the answering machine and somebody in my family would always say it. that it the first thing i remember from friends.
Johnny S 02-05-2006, 10:54 AM I had seen random episodes in syndication, not sure which one I saw first. Then when it was released on DVD I bought it, and the rest is history. It is now my #1 show of all time!
harsan_09 01-04-2007, 08:38 PM I saw TOW Rachel is Late when I was about seven, but I don't really think that counts. When I really discovered the show it was a few years after it ended. I was thirteen and I went to a friend's house. My friend had borrowed the fifth season DVDs from her cousin, and my real first episode was The One in Vegas. I have now seen every single episode at least twice, and seasons three, five, and eight countless times. One of my closest friends owns all the seasons (she got the whole thing off eBay for pretty cheap), and another friend has Friends SceneIt (that's a fun game). It's my favorite show ever, and I :heart: it!
Classicshowsgurl15 01-04-2007, 10:11 PM I don't remember what the first episode I saw was because I would only watch it sometimes in reruns and I never saw it originally because I was only 3 when it started.Then I started watching it all the time this past summer. So I think I might have seen TOW the Proposal or TOW the Cop pretty early.
Duke100 01-08-2007, 01:38 PM That episode from season 9 (I can't remember what its called either)
I can't really remember my first episode...it was probably about season 3 or 4
i think you're talking about "the one with the memorial service"
I had always loved the Friends theme song, so I decided to listen to it, then change the channel. But as soon as the credits were over, the show started and nothing else was on TV, so I decided to watch. (I will never regret that decision!)
It was either "The One Where They All Turn Thirty" or "The One Hundreth" but I'm pretty sure it's "Thirty"
CourteneyFan4ever 05-01-2007, 04:05 AM the first episode i ever saw was TOW all the weddingdresses, i loved Monica right from the start! but well i already knew her from the movie Scream before i even knew she played in Friends too!
Scoobiedoo30 05-01-2007, 12:55 PM the first episode in season 3
