The One Where No One Proposes

[ComedyFan2010 · 9/10 · 5 September 2011]

This is a great start of a new season. First of all we have the whole proposal confusion. Rachel and Phoebe talking is pretty funny because Rachel thinks that Phoebe knows that Joey "proposed" while Phoebe believes that it was Ross.

Then the conversation of Ross and Phoebe is absolutely hilarious. Ross absolutely cannot believe how Rachel has the ring on. David Schwimmer is so great in this scene! And Ross even for a moment believes that he might have proposed

And Jack Geller is a great addition to this episode. I love how walks in on Monica and Chandler and then tries to teach her how to become pregnant

Very Funny episode where everything is a mess

The One After Rachel Has Her Baby...

[taylorkingston · 10/10 · 19 October 2014]

This episode is so funny. Just the idea of it. Rachel thinking Joey proposed by didn't actually propose.

In this episode, Rachel has just given birth to her beautiful baby girl, Emma. She thought Joey had proposed, but it turns out he didn't. But she says yes, so Joey goes along with it, for a while. When Ross comes to actually propose to Rachel, she tells him about her engagement to Joey. Ross is furious at Joey. Come on man, it's not his fault. He went to pick up the ring and Rachel misunderstood. Eventually Joey tells Rachel the truth, and she feels so stupid and silly for even thinking that he was proposing. I mean, just after she had another mans child. I mean, it would be cute and Joey does love her, but still. Meanwhile, Monica and Chandler decide to start trying to have a baby. They even try whilst at the hospital. And Jack, Monica's Dad, sort of walks in on it. How awkward.

Overall, I give this episode a 10 out of 10.

Proposal Misunderstandings

[vivianla · 30 December 2020]

Rachel accepts and slips on the ring from Joey. Ross comes in and Joey awkwardly dances his way out. There is a bunch of one-sided conversations amongst the group and broken telephone. This leads to misunderstandings of wedding proposals. Joey hilariously is aroused by breastfeeding. The black nurse comes in and suggests massaging the breast and does so. When the baby latches on finally Joey says wow that baby is going to town! Ross is shocked in the end to learn how the misunderstandings came to be and that Rachel accepted Joey as her fiance.

Joey steals this series 9 opener

[studioAT · 6/10 · 3 August 2017]

After more contract negotiations over the summer the cast of 'Friends' returned for this 9th series, which is only right seeing as lots of plots were left unresolved and the mass fan return to the show in its 8th year showed that there was still life in the sitcom yet.

Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer give great performances, as the mystery of who proposed and who didn't is unravelled. Matt Le Blanc though still manages to be the funniest character in the show, adding more and more layers to Joey.

Lisa Kudrow is seriously underused, and sadly I didn't find the Monica/Chandler story line that funny, other than some of the Jack Geller lines delivered with aplomb by guest star Elliot Gould.

A good start to series 9

Dumbest. Episode. Ever.

[stirlingneeley · 2/10 · 25 June 2021]

Better suited to be an episode of 'The Three Stooges' or 'Laurel and Hardy'. While I'm sure the intent was to make humor over a series of mistakes and misunderstandings, instead it comes across as ridiculous and farcical. Not up to the usual writing standards for the show.
