This has been driving me crazy. I have seen every episode to my knowledge. I have watched reruns on many different networks and think some episodes are missing. Does anyone remember the episode when Mike's parents set up a helicopter trip, inviting his ex gf. He gets off the helicopter but I dont recall what happens after. This episode is never aired. Hoping someone remembers and doesn't think I'm making it up.

Mike?

not Joey, Ross or Chandler?

Yes Mike. The one Phoebe married

I don't remember this episode. There are a few episodes that have'nt been aired
during reruns lately:
1)The third season's "ski trip" episode that was the first episode after Rachel and Ross broke up.
2) The sixth season's "TOW Chandler Can't Cry."
3)The seventh season's "TOW All the Candy."

Nick at Nite already aired The One with All the Candy.

Nick at Nite skipped these episodes: reasons why:
- The One without the Ski Trip (most scenes include Chandler smoking)

- The One with Joey's Dirty Day (Chandler goes to strip club and mostly talk for women sexual fantasies)

- The One Where Rachel Smokes (most plot for Rachel smoking to join in crowd with coworkers that smoke)

- The One Where Chandler Can't Cry (Ursula is in pornographic movies under Phoebe's name)

- The One with the Stripper (Monica hires a stripper that turns out to be a hooker)

- The One with the Sharks (Chandler watching porn on TV)

- The One with Phoebe's Birthday Dinner (Chandler smokes addicting which Monica is against)

- and those specials like The One With All the Other Ones (but not all networks would air on syndication), this was clip show

For those episodes Nick at Nite did not want to air, just wanting to air episodes for user family friendly versions. Surely started in episode 3 The One with the Thumb, Chandler started smoking, but it's not severe, unlike later episodes as I posted. I'm not sure how was it different that Nick at Nite aired The One with Free Porn, as Chandler Can't Cry couldn't air because of porn issues for Phoebe/Ursula.

I never really found Friends to be that raunchy and I dont see why they dont air the episodes on Nick at Nite anyway. I mean if your saying Nick at Nite wants to be a little more family friendly towards certain episodes, fine, but how come those same episodes can be seen in syndication and sometimes at a much earlier time slot?

I don't know what you're saying but TBS aired all episodes and some edited, and I'm not sure why it was different with Nick at Nite.

update: TVLand was airing all episodes of Friends when i notice on schedule, commercial breaks broken into 3 parts, while Nick at Nite into 2 parts. I assumed once Friends is phased out Nick at Nite in future, it may be possible if tv land can air all those episodes. When or if nick at nite will make return of Friends, it may be tv land version. I heard that nick at nite friends expiration date is 2017, based on 2004 or 2005 acquisition notes. Not sure about george lopez though..

What I was trying to say is that Friends is on sometimes at 6 or 7pm ET and they show the episodes in full. Any raunchy parts are in, not edited out.

I hate how Nick at Nite chopped big edit.
For example in last episode, The Last One, after Phoebe suggests Ross to get past security, whole scenes for lining up ticket counter and Rachel trying to find boarding pass in her purse are edited out.

If anyone has watched Friends and know episodes, add some details scene of what Nick at Nite scenes chopped in which episode. If not, read script online and watch at same time and determine what scenes are edited out.

I know most episodes ending tag are out and replaced with nick at nite credits with nickelodeon advertisement on top.
