Chandler has a lot of difficulties to take pictures

[Lady_Targaryen · 7/10 · 13 March 2009]

Chandler and Monica are going to take wedding pictures to put in the newspaper. Chandler is a terrible model, and all the pictures he takes looks bad. Phoebe gives them the idea of taking pictures with a professional photographer, but not even that helps Chandler to look better in the pictures. (He looks a retarded! Its so funny!)

The Friends tell Rachel that she cannot go out with Tag,spite of the fact she still wants him. (Rachel doesn't let any other woman from her work to be close to Tag or to invite him to go out.) When Rachel asks Joey to go out with Tag to show him the city, she stays angry with Joey, because he introduced Tag to a lot of women.

Phoebe has a date with a divorced and beautiful guy named Kyle, but she asks Ross to date Kyle's ex wife, Whitney. Ross starts to enjoy Whitney company for real, but Phoebe alerts him that she is crazy and he should be careful.

The One Where Phoebe And Ross Date A Divorcing Couple...

[taylorkingston · 10/10 · 3 April 2015]

I really love this episode. It's one of my all-time favorite episodes from Season 7 and from the entire series.

In this episode, Monica and Chandler get a photo taken for a newspaper, announcing their engagement. But Chandler can't smile or even look okay in a photo. In the end, Joey steps in and takes the photo with Monica. Phoebe meets a man and they start dating. Ross meets a woman and they start dating. Only to find out that the people they're dating are divorcing each other. They become tangled in the fights only to have the couple go back to each other. And Joey teaches Tag how to pick up women, which annoys the hell out of Rachel.

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

The One with the Engagement Picture

[ComedyFan2010 · 6/10 · 19 August 2011]

The story with Rachel and Tag continues and it seems to be so bad, there is really nothing interesting about it. Her jealousy just seems very annoying and there is nothing that makes one laugh. Maybe just one moment when Tag says "How you doing". Plus it seems to me that they are trying to make Chandler lamer. Probably to make it look as if Monica is so much better than him.

The whole story with the picture was boring and bad as well. And how they ended it was stupid as well. So Monica posted a picture of her and Joey, because to her matters what people think of the picture she is on, selfish and nasty as usual

The whole idea of Phoebe and Ross dating a broken up couple and fighting for them was not too bad but there wasn't much dine with it

Very Unpleasant Episode

[cwg2005a · 3/10 · 19 December 2022]

In this episode, Rachel tries to manipulate her assistant into not dating, Phoebe tries to manipulate Ross into not dating a specific woman, Ross insults his girlfriend's ex, Monica pushes Chandler into doing something he clearly has not desire to do, and, overall, it just was not fun or pleasant to watch. Whoever wrote it decided to show the mean-spiritedness and smallness of each character.

I would avoid this one, actually; in addition to what I just said, it also does not move the marriage narrative in any meaningful direction, does not engage any new relationships for the other singles, and just sort of lays there, formless.

Terrible

[puzgolac · 1/10 · 9 July 2023]

I thought there were laws against child labor in America, so I was very surprised to see that they hired a five year old to write the script for this episode. Because only a preschool child would think that making stupid faces is the pinnacle of comedy. And so, the main "plot" of this episode is that Chandler makes a stupid face when he has his picture taken. Oh, how incredibly hilarious! And what shouldn't have even been a single scene in any decent sitcom is dragged on and on and on throughout the episode. It just makes you feel second hand embarrassment.

Rachel is still terrible and her dumb plot arc involving her assistant is even lamer that when it started.

This episode is one of the lowest points of this show.

Poor Matthew Perry. He looks so frail here, almost like he is being guided through his storyline by Courtney Cox.

It's not a bad episode, but not an overly good one either.

Photos and Jealousy

[vivianla · 24 December 2020]

Rachel wants Tag to herself. She asks Joey to take him out after a woman tells her she is hoping tonight something will happen between them. Tag comes back saying he got twenty women's numbers.

Rachel tells Joey she had a crush on him when she first met him.

Monica is photogenic but Chandler looks awkward.

Instead of having Chandler in the engagement photo Monica took it with Joey. Monica says wow they look good together imagine how good looking our kids would be. Joey replies we don't have to imagine.
