Editorial Reviews

With the exception of Joey (Matt LeBlanc), each of the Friends tangled with tying the knot at one point in the series. Now four episodes of memorable nuptials (and near-nups) are captured in this collection, another in the themed series targeted at fans unwilling to shell out for a complete-season boxed set. As with the other collections in this series, the disc contains the same special features as in existing Friends DVDs, including extra footage never aired on TV and episode commentary from the show's executive producers. But for anyone who already owns the complete seasons, there's nothing new here.

Four episodes doesn't seem like a lot, and as with The One With All the Babies collection, the wedding theme is a bit stretched. One of the episodes doesn't even show a wedding: "The One in Vegas" (season five) in which Monica (Courteney Cox) and Chandler (Matthew Perry) ponder a spur-of-the-moment altar sprint but are stopped when Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) burst in married instead. Most of the episodes were season-finale cliffhangers: Ross' season-four London wedding to Emily (Helen Baxendale) that culminated in his blurting the wrong name during the vows; and Monica and Chandler's calamity-filled event from season seven, in which Chandler gets cold feet and everyone mistakenly believes Monica is pregnant. Their union is most poignant, being they're the only two Friends to wed each other during the series. But the honor of most romantic ceremony still goes to "The One With Phoebe's Wedding" (season 10) in which Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) marries boyfriend Mike (Paul Rudd) outdoors in the street after a blizzard. Yes, that sounds uncomfortable, but only on TV, folks--only on TV. --Ellen A. Kim

5.0 out of 5 stars Why not?, June 29, 2006

By	Ash - See all my reviews

In answer to a previous review - some people prefer to buy the 'themed' episodes. People who might not want to spend money on seasons for a show that are on several channels in syndication, can buy their favorite episodes (if that happens to be weddings). For instance - I won't be buying the seasons for Roseanne, since I can see it several times a day, but I am looking forward to the Halloween episodes that are coming out because they were among my favorites. It's a matter of what one wants to spend money on.

5.0 out of 5 stars They Need The One With All The Thanksgivings!, November 15, 2007

By	Danielle Turchiano (Van Nuys, CA United States) - See all my reviews

I own all of the 10 seasons of "Friends" on DVD, so I can't justify buying the collections, too-- well, not unless it's "The One With All The Thanksgivings" because I play the episodes back to back every year while cooking, and it'd just be easier not to have to constantly switch discs. But I will say that if you never really got into the show while it was on NBC, these collections are a great way to do it because you can sample some of the funniest moments from throughout the years.
