Ten seasons is a long time, especially when it comes to Friends, one of the most famous series in history that still has millions of viewers today. Friends is that safe place to always return to or that trusted friend with whom you know you can laugh and cry. Sometimes at the same time.
This is certainly a record-breaking series. It was the first production in which the salaries of male and female leads were equal, in 10 seasons and 236 episodesmanaged to get specialized pages like Metacritic or IMDB to always rate its episodes above 7 out of 10.
Although you can always watch it again to remember the best moments, if you want to do a quick marathon, here is what you need 10 most special chapters of one of the most watched series in history that still continues to gain viewers.

They use her image, but they put the voice of another girl, who sings better, but whose image they don’t want to imitate “Smelly Cat”. Chandler doesn’t know how to get rid of Eddie and they all end the episode singing the song together.
Unagui’s (6×17)

This episode features the most iconic kiss of the series. Despite Ross dating Julie, after a small argument, Rachael confesses that she still loves him. With the cafeteria closed and the rain in the background, they share a kiss that brings the couple back together.
The one after the “I do” (8×01)
Friends
Season 8 starts off strong with one of the most iconic episodes. Monica denies being pregnant and then Phoebe finds out who really is pregnant, but Rachel doesn’t want to tell her that Ross is the father until he knows.
Monica also discovers that Rachel is pregnant while Ross tries to impress a girl. In the end, Rachel takes the pregnancy test again and discovers that she is pregnant.
The One of All Thanksgivings (5×8)
There was no way we could miss a Thanksgiving episode, and while there are many to choose from, this one is definitely the best. After dinner, everyone starts to reminisce about their worst Thanksgivings. Joey remembers the time he ended up with his head stuck inside a turkey.
In 1987, a fat Monica meets Chandler for the first time and he accidentally insults her. The following year, a much more attractive Monica tries to get back at him, but accidentally ends up cutting off his toe.
Back in the present, Chandler is angry with Monica for not telling him the truth. So she puts a turkey on her head to make Chandler laugh and forgive her. All of this ends unintentionally with the couple’s first “I love you.”
Friends: The Reunion
HBO
Ok, it’s not a chapter per se. But it’s been many years waiting for a reunion and seeing them return to their apartments, laughing while remembering the game for which they exchanged apartments or listening to them talk about how they felt in those years, well deserves a special mention for this series that lasted 10 years and is still very much alive.
