The One where the FRIENDS' cast reveals their personal favourite episodes

Dubbed one of the most popular sitcoms of all time, FRIENDS which was released in 1994 ran for two decades. With each season comprising over 20 episodes, it has given fans plenty of options to choose their personal favourite one. Although there are particular scenes that are hard to erase from the memory, some of which are still being used as comedic references, a few episodes have been etched in our brains.

It won't be farfetched to claim that it is the same with the six frequent visitors of the coffee house at Central Perk. Featuring Jennifer Aniston as Rachel Green, Courteney Cox as Monica Geller, Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe Buffay, Matt LeBlanc as Joey Tribbiani, Matthew Perry as Chandler Bing, and David Schwimmer as Ross Geller, the cast has talked about the one episode that would always remain a memorable one for them. Here is a list of the episodes that are a personal favourite of the FRIENDS' cast.

Actor Matt LeBlanc mirrored Joey's mischievous nature when he revealed that his favourite episode was the one where Ross got hit by a puck on the face. The episode showed the three musketeers of Central Perk going to a New York Rangers game to cheer Ross up which ended with him in the ER. According to Screen Rant, Matt revealed this during the 2016 FRIENDS reunion.

2. The One With The Prom Video

Although the FRIENDS are busy with their current adult lives in the hustle-bustle of New York City, they never forget to reminisce on the past, arguably awkward, teenage moments where Ross had a huge crush on Rachel.

5. The One With The Blackout
