S3 E14 - Joey is trying to hide from Ginger behind the coats, in Central Perk, and David can't hold the smile. It's hilarious 😂😂😂

[@darrenyukihiro]

In "The One With Monica's Boots", Phoebe tries to get Ross to get her Sting concert tickets by singing "Ross can". In the background, you can see Monica and Rachel smiling and laughing at her performance.

[@tmoore4075]

The fact Matthew Perry kept as straight of a face as he did when he smacked himself with the file cabinet drawer is amazing. Totally in character.

[@LoveMarshieCharlie]

Yessss I was always shocked to hear that this was not scripted, I bet it really hurt but he knew it was SO funny that he knew he had to keep going-- if he laughed then Jennifer would have broken too (she was always cute at hiding her laughter with her hands) and they wouldn't have been able to use the scene. This and Ross handing Chandler the lamp are my very favorite unscripted moments that were kept in the show!

[@ctgctg1]

Priceless.😂😂

[@KatMusic2009]

@@LoveMarshieCharlie not sure I believe that wasn't 'scripted' tbh. Surely, that was why the character was handcuffed to the filing cabinet in the first place. Plus they would have rehearsed the scene! The only way it wasn't planned would be that it happened in rehearsal, and was kept in!

When Matthew Perry said, "Oh, I'm sorry, we don't have your sheep, you also see Lisa Kudrow laughing. I think that's also my favorite line from him.

It's the Newton one for me

[@johnrussellpelt9091]

[@teslagrooms1165]

When Chandler says "I'm sorry, we don't have your sheep" it looks like Matthew Perry's looking over at the audience and is relieved they laughed.

[@Masterfighterx]

As Jennifer mentioned, it was like his life depended on a laugh.

[@wiebkke]

That’s probably what he did. He felt so insecure whenever others wouldn’t laugh at his jokes or bloopers :/ makes you really sad to think about that.

[@heidiquast4667]

I know Matthew Perry wanted to be remembered as someone who helped others first, not for his role as Chandler Bing. But I would argue that he helped people as Chandler and as Matthew. Making people laugh, helping them to decompress after a myriad of reasons for having had a bad day, is a gift. As was his ability to be relatable and humble and funny while bearing his soul. He will be remembered as a gift to the world who went back to the universe at the pinnacle of this life.

[@thenightporter]

Every minute of every day, there is someone in this world that is feeling sad/down/depressed and will watch a Friends episode on TV/streaming, or, like me, choose a DVD disc from all 10 seasons to watch to laugh and get our minds off of our troubles; sometines we'll pick a favorite -- usually it is one where we know Chandler has a great line ("what kind of scary ass clowns came to your birthday parties"/"was that place THE SUN?" /"yes, they do move them over when they measure you -- in PRISON!"

[@nnnnnnnnnnn7292]

​@@thenightporter Agreed! I also rewatch Friends for helping with depression. And love Matthew to bits. He was a tormented soul, a son of narcissistic parents, and almost became one himself. But he fought it, grew in his soul, overgrown the pain. He is a hero actually. Very few people are capable of facing the inner demons and holding on to the Sun. ☀️

[@rebecca8525]

Very true. I forget whether it was Perry or another cast member who was walking down the street a few days after 9/11 and a complete stranger hugged them, saying, "Watching Friends made me laugh for the first time after the terrorist attacks."

[@batgurrl]

This is actually the first Friends list I watched since his passing, these are hilarious but it’s sill bittersweet. Rest In Peace Matthew Perry💕

I'm surprised that the "blue blazer black" scene wasn't on here! They kept going after Matthew Perry messed up his line but when Monica says "you're stupid" you can tell she's trying so hard no to laugh.

[@socalamvs5971]

That’s a really good point. How is that not on here?! Matthew Perry messed up the line and Jennifer and Courtney ran with it.

[@nnnnnnnnnnn7292]

I didn't get it to be honest. 😅

[@rebecca8525]

I think it's because the line was about a businessman who later became the 45th president of the United States, and Mojo avoided mentioning his name so the comments wouldn't turn into a political dumpster fire.

[@fernandaabreu5625]

@@nnnnnnnnnnn7292 If I recall correctly, Matthew Perry was supposed to say "get my blue blazer back" but messed up saying black instead of back, yet the scene continued anyway and Courtney made fun of him saying "you're stupid", and it kept in the scene was if it was scripted. Something like that.

I’m glad she mentioned the aspect ratio thing. The show was shot on 16:9 film, but the sides were cropped for the standard definition 4:3 televisions of the time. So the remastering of the show for today’s viewing means a lot of things on the sides that we were never meant to seen, now can be.
