- “The One Where Everybody Finds Out” (Season 5, Episode 14) “They don’t know that we know they know we know.” You could easily switch up this episode of “The One With the Embryos” because they’re just so darn funny.
- “The One With The Embryos” (Season 4, Episode 12) This episode is an instant classic and one of my go-to episodes when I really need a good laugh. The guys and girls take competition a little too far when they agree to some Ross-led trivia.
- “The One Where Ross Got High” (Season 6, Episode 9) This is easily my favorite Thanksgiving episode and one that I watch multiple times every year. This year, Monica has entrusted Rachel with making the dessert, but it doesn’t go to plan as Rachel makes half an English Trifle and half a Shepherd’s pie.
- “The One Where No One’s Ready” (Season 3, Episode 2) This is one of the more underrated episodes of the series, which finds everyone attempting to get ready for one of Ross’ work functions.

Season 1, Episode 1 This is where it all started, so it's only natural that your binge-watch would start here too. Plus, it holds up as a great sitcom pilot. "And I just want a million dollars!"
Season 1, Episode 7 This episode features everything that was so great about early Friends— a big ensemble episode, Phoebe's (Lisa Kudrow) songs, angsty Ross (David Schwimmer) — and adds in Chandler (Matthew Perry) off on perhaps the greatest solo side plot of the show's entire run. "Gum would be perfection."
Season 1, Episode 18 A personal favorite, this episode combines some of the best one-liners ("The fifth dentist caved and now they're all recommending Trident?" and "Phoebe just threw away two jacks because they didn't look happy") with some great stuff between Ross and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston), back when people were still super into Ross and Rach...
Season 1, Episode 24 Friends definitely knew how to do cliffhangers and Rachel rushing to the airport to greet Ross after finding out he has feelings for her, only to see him kissing another woman was one of the best.
Season 2, Episode 1 The opening scene where Rachel breaks it to the gang about Julie (Lauren Tom) is some of Aniston's funniest work in all 10 seasons. "Isn't that just kick-you-in-the-crotch, spit-on-your-neck fantastic?" There are also two really solid side plots — Phoebe cutting Monica's hair to look like Dudley Moore instead of Demi Moore and J...
Season 2, Episode 7 Early Friendswrote really great stuff for Aniston and Schwimmer, not least of which is when Ross gets Rachel's drunken answering machine message where she tells him she's over him. "Over me? When were you... under me?"
Season 2, Episode 14 Again with the Ross-Rachel stuff, but it was just so good in the early seasons! This one also introduced the great use of flashbacks on the show. "He's her lobster!"
Season 3, Episode 2 Bottle episodes can sometimes force TV shows to do some of their best work because the stories are contained, there are no recurring characters or guest stars to muddy things up and the writers are able to just drill the show down to its most basic elements. This is one of the greatest bottle episodes in sitcom TV history.
Season 3, Episode 9 Another personal favorite, this is the episode that launched Friends'string of excellent Thanksgiving fare. Sure, Season 1 had the one where Underdog got away, but then Season 2 skipped Thanksgiving. This is the one that started the wonderful Turkey Day tradition.
Season 3, Episode 13 This one is on here mostly because it features one of the best C-plots of the entire series when Rachel and Joe read each other's favorite books, Little Women and The Shining, respectively. "Do you want to put the book in the freezer?"

- "The One After Ross Says Rachel" (Season 5, Episode 1)
- "The One With the Blackout" (Season 1, Episode 7)
- The One Where Ross Got High. This episode from Season 6 was one of Friends' classic Thanksgiving episodes. When Jack and Judy Geller join them for the celebration, Monica tells Chandler she still hasn't told them about their relationship.
- The One With The Jellyfish. Season 4 was filled with Ross and Rachel drama. In the first episode of the season, Ross's new girlfriend Bonnie gets on Rachel's bad side, and Phoebe meets her real biological mother.
- The One With All The Kissing. Season 5 was great for many reasons. For example, Ross's many attempts to recover from the "I take thee, Rachel" fiasco with his new wife, Emily.
- The One With The Football. This episode is another Thanksgiving gem and probably one of the show's most iconic holiday episodes. Here audiences get that first-rate sibling rivalry between Monica and Ross while on a game of football.
