Another hilarious season! July 21, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I absolutely love this show, and the 5th season is one of the funniest of this series. You'll laugh from start to finish of every single episode. My favorite episode of the whole season has to be The One Where Everybody Finds Out.
I've watched season 5 several times now, and I can't wait to buy season 6!!!
Friends Season 5 July 12, 2007 I love this season of Friends so finding it in a collection with a nother season was great! Thank you!
Another setdown, but not as bad. June 18, 2007 This season was just O.K. It definitely wasn't as good as season 4, but still had a lot of funny moments. My favorites included The one with Chandler's Work Laugh, The one where phoebe Hates PBS, and the One Where Rachel Smokes. These were all really funny and had good quality. B
Another enjoyable season May 5, 2007 We are into the heart of the Friends 9-season series, and it shows: the writing is as crisp as it gets, and the characters are still new enough that we don't get the repeating storylines that crop up unfortunately in later seasons. Even Phoebe's stories are interesting and semi-normal, in a Friends kind of way (i.e. a seemingly normal relationship with a cop gives rise to a number of nifty subplots such as the boys being scared in a ride-along). It's certainly a welcome relief from her demented Season 4 thread of giving birth to her brother's triplets.
However, the meat of the season is the development of the Chandler-Monica relationship. Much of the humour is driven by Monica's competitiveness and the universal thought that although Chandler is seen as making a great catch, Monica could "do better". For example, when Monica discovers Phoebe and her new beau have had a "rendezvous" in Central Park, Monica tries to talk Chandler into an even riskier adventure in a public restroom.
Finally, with the departure of Ugly Naked Guy, the show has finally lost all the silly go-to, cheap-laugh gimmicks that detracted from the re-watchability of the earliest seasons. It also leads to the funniest moment of the season: Ross and Ugly Naked Guy having tea together .... naked, of course! In fact, nudity abounds in this season, with Ross mistakingly getting a show from a naked Rachel dancing alone in her apartment, among others.
There is one interesting extra - an extended (~1 hour) look at filming the show including looks into the writer's room and tape of fans in the studio audience laughing it up with the warm-up comic. There is very little in addition to this one extra, though - a few Entertainment Tonight-like clips of the cast and crew in London, a couple commentaries (with almost no new information we don't already know from previous commentaries), etc. However, it is a pleasure to see the cast and the writers at their peaks, and the re-watchablility of this season is one of the highest of the series.
Say it right May 5, 2007 This is one of the best Friend Seasons ever. Jennifer Aniston once again shows everyone why she deserves her own series. Jennifer Aniston plays the character Rachal Green. Buy your Copy today.
