You guys know I love the show Friends. I've seen every episode multiple times- I watch it in syndication all the time... it's one of my absolute favorite things... and I've watched it forever pretty much.
The one episode that definitely stands out as the worst is The One With The Invitation. This is a flashback episode... I don't understand why they air flashback episodes in syndication. It's maybe a good thing to watch if someone is like "Ohh I've never seen Friends where do I start." But this one is just kind of cut together... badly.
It's all about Ross and Rachel's relationship... but I feel like the clips they use are too long and out of context... and there's not enough story in between for it to even feel like a regular episode of Friends. It's just not that good at all.
It also wouldn't be a great episode to show someone who hadn't watched Friends before because the clips don't have much context and they're confusing. I watched with my mom and grandmother who hadn't really seen Friends or they watched them a long time ago when they first aired... and they didn't really know what was going on. It explains that it took a while for Rachel to realize Ross liked her... but it doesn't really show why (Pablo) and it didn't really show... anything important like why Ross was angry at Rachel.
It's also just a lot to take in in 30 minutes... so it just doesn't really work that well... and of all the flashback episodes it's definitely the worst. So it's the worst of the worst and I just would recommend skipping this one.
Also the context of this episode because I forgot to mention that: Rachel gets an invitation for Emily and Ross's wedding. That's it... so yeah. That's it... nothing special.
Bye!
