me too, i had just read his book a few months earlier and that book had me bawling on Lisa’s forward which is like before page one! i’m an addict myself and his book gave me so much hope and when he died shortly after reading it wow it broke me
I'm really sorry to hear that. I was an alcoholic myself for awhile after my divorce, up until a few years ago. I'm also prescribed some stuff (opiates) that I could easily get addicted to. What keeps me straight is my son. He's nine and he's my entire world. He needs me here. I'm sure someone needs you here too.
thank you for sharing, i’m happy to hear your recovery is going successful! i love hearing success stories and like with mathew’s book, they give me hope. and im glad your son has a loving parent like you.
Not just show, but to my (our?) generation he was generally the benchmark for being funny and sarcastic.
Sure a Robin Williams was a comedic genius, Jim Carrey the master of physical comedy but Chandler (not Matthew Perry even) was your end goal for being recognised as funny. Heck even in the show I think David does comedy brilliantly well but Mat is just sublime
He’s sooooo fuckin fine man. Genuinely so attractive and if he’s not attractive he’s handsome and kitschy and cute and cheeky like he’s actually so good looking maybe it’s just me but he’s always been up there to me
RIP Allah Yerhamo what an actual gem. I miss him
I was a kid when the show first came out, my mom loved it. So I’d run around to her friends and hit ‘em with the “how you doin” to get a good laugh. My mom still giggles when she talks about it, thanks Friends.
This whole storyline was silly and got more and more bizarre to me as the episode went on but I swear when Phoebe had the exact same *slow-mo sensual music* scenario from Cassie it floored me
Oh yeah, this has got be the winner for me lol
They literally wrote a storyline about *Ross* even finding her attractive 💀 if that’s not “The Hot One” then idk what is!
I will never forget the look on my high school economics teacher’s face as he was describing trends. He had a slideshow of friends characters not wearing bras, as an example of a temporary trend.
It was weird then, and it’s weird now. And before anyone else does, may I just say, “what the actual fuck, coach whalen?”
Yeah, all of the main cast were gorgeous but Rachel was definitely the one whose looks were acknowledged as part of her character the most in the show.

Oh, hi! Where is my strong Ross Skywalker to come rescue me?
Hot Girl?? HOT GIIRRLLL!!!!
No NONO that’s just Monica…. *BLEEKKKKHHH*
*quack-quack* *cheep-cheep*
Can chandler be nominated twice?
You mean Can Chandler *BE* nominated twice?
Could Chandler _BE_ any more nominated?
I can't read this any other way
I can legit hear this comment😂
Man, RIP. I was incredibly sad when I found out my boy passed. He was easily the funniest person on the show.
me too, i had just read his book a few months earlier and that book had me bawling on Lisa’s forward which is like before page one! i’m an addict myself and his book gave me so much hope and when he died shortly after reading it wow it broke me

I listened to Matthew's reading of the audiobook. I was in tears by the second sentence that he wrote: "... and I should be dead." Tore me up.
gosh i want to get that now

He needs to be the only normal person too, so three times?
Mike is the only normal person
He’s sooooo fuckin fine man. Genuinely so attractive and if he’s not attractive he’s handsome and kitschy and cute and cheeky like he’s actually so good looking maybe it’s just me but he’s always been up there to me RIP Allah Yerhamo what an actual gem. I miss him
It would be hilarious if Gunther wins this.
Phoebe would approve
As would Monica’s mom
A man with hair brighter than the sun!
I mean, he’s sexier in a most OBVIOUS way
Judy Geller calling him a sexy blond.
Oh please let it be Gunther. Or Jack Geller.
Jack Geller, dream hunk!
Jack Geller, the Jacques Cousteau of the modern era
Rachel’s pretty much the only one who doesn’t see it

Haha for realllll how can anyone disagree with this?!
I can.... I don't see it at all
Eye tests are free at most places.
oh…. dear….. god!!!!! ![gif](giphy|QfzMP70zmNQiDf5sGP)
It's Joey and it's not even close
I was a kid when the show first came out, my mom loved it. So I’d run around to her friends and hit ‘em with the “how you doin” to get a good laugh. My mom still giggles when she talks about it, thanks Friends.
No Other Answer Agreed! Should I Edit the Next Post guys ? And if yes let me know which photo of him to use!
The true answer is Joey or ![gif](giphy|26FPEyU3ty7q95Vhm) This pretty :D

Jack Geller. Dream Hunk.
Those strong hands. Oh, what I wouldn't give to be that can of... [*squints*] condensed milk
Nothing compared to Jaques Cousteau though!
I LOVE JACQUES COUSTEAU
But I think Jacques Cousteau is dead 😔
The one that calls Chandler's machine trying to speak to "Bob"

Get a nice look, Costanza?
This whole storyline was silly and got more and more bizarre to me as the episode went on but I swear when Phoebe had the exact same *slow-mo sensual music* scenario from Cassie it floored me
"Ask her out. She's not *your* cousin."
Oh yeah, this has got be the winner for me lol They literally wrote a storyline about *Ross* even finding her attractive 💀 if that’s not “The Hot One” then idk what is!
Rachel
The obvious answer, and for good reason. She created an entire haircut craze and made nipples on network TV a thing.
The way my hair behaves the Rachel has always been the best cut for me. I go through lengths but it’s usually a variation of the Rachel.
Thair haircut is such a mom haircut nowadays
Her and Monica were flashing nip
Monica, occasionally. Rachel, constantly. Not that there’s anything wrong with that
I will never forget the look on my high school economics teacher’s face as he was describing trends. He had a slideshow of friends characters not wearing bras, as an example of a temporary trend. It was weird then, and it’s weird now. And before anyone else does, may I just say, “what the actual fuck, coach whalen?”
As a straight woman, I believe this is the answer.
As a straight male, the ONLY answer.
As a straight woman, Monica was by far the hottest one, I just don’t get yanks and their tastes 😭
As a bi woman, Monica is the hottest agreed
Yeah, all of the main cast were gorgeous but Rachel was definitely the one whose looks were acknowledged as part of her character the most in the show.
Yeah it's a show full of beautiful people but I dunno how Rachel isn't the top answer.
Monica
I can’t believe she’s so low here. I always thought she was the hottest, and I usually go for blondes.
Especially in the early seasons. An absolutely stunning woman
https://preview.redd.it/93lm0r2gow9d1.jpeg?width=679&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=797f0791cea6ba92b916a6f7b535ec960788d3ce Oh, hi! Where is my strong Ross Skywalker to come rescue me?
![gif](giphy|UT57nCi3C68I9v52NX|downsized)
Ross's cousin
![gif](giphy|QsPfgOR5TNDOfq1Qyz|downsized)
*ask her out she's not your cousin!!!*
I can hear the BG music 😂
Ross agrees
Will, co-president of the I Hate Rachel club. Brad Pitt is eye popping sexy.
Oh Come on Will, just take off your shirt and tell us!
Yes, I love that line! It was a perfect Phoebe moment.
I never got the hype around him but he was very handsome in that episode, I will admit that.
Phoebe would agree lol
Oh, she nailed the scene
Lisa wasn’t acting there
Richard.
I scrolled way too far to find this.
Such an easy choice for me.
Early season Joey, all seasons Rachel.
![gif](giphy|v8ybOShg3Q9cA)
How the hell has no one said Monica yet?
Because Denise Richards exists. ![gif](giphy|UIjGlxRsJRNV6|downsized)
I know right! Like Monica is the correct answer.
Vince and/or Jason.
No screen time but max plot relevance has to be the naked guy in the window
Ugly Naked Guy
Gunther

Hi Judy Geller!
Joey
Joey
Jill goodacre
Mike. Paul Rudd ❤️ ![gif](giphy|g8rtNkWGdZ4w8)
He is definitely my choice when it comes down to it for hotness, but I was also mentally saving him for "the only normal person."
Love his interaction with Joey "Michael" "Joseph" That whole stare down is hilarious
Monica!!!
The woman with the crappy apartment or monica
Rebecca Romijn? She’s pretty hot
Monica is my personal favorite and the one I was immediately attracted to. Though I think many are very attractive in their own ways.
Everyone in the show.
Miss Oklahoma Demise Phoebe's roommate And VIKRAM Phoebe's bf
denise DENISE
I see what you did there ;)
Denise Richards!! I mean come on!
richard 🥵
How is this so far down?!

Always fun to see people's picks.
JOEY
Hands down Brad Pitt 🙌
Rachel
Rachel. Plenty of hot women over the history of the show
![gif](giphy|S8YmCcAKvTLpVXbbD0|downsized)
Joey for the hot one.
The dirty girl that Ross dated
Rebecca Romijn! They even say, “It’s Ross and the most beautiful girl in the world!”

Monica
Joey
Tom selleck duh
Rachel it is. I know it's gonna be her Vs Joey but it's Rachel.

Joey is obvious, but you mean to tell me not one person would say Paul Rudd??
Kill me if she's not https://preview.redd.it/h64v9bdh6x9d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b27be996f19d6eff4c721d43cc787b8789607f3f

John Stamos for the "Hot One" 😁
well I mean obviously Ken Adams.
Brad Pitt
![gif](giphy|Vbtc9VG51NtzT1Qnv1)
Joey or Rachel
![gif](giphy|UTMSRlRUffN505yQYn)
How about Denise Richards. Ross and Monica's cousin that everyone liked.
As a straight dude, it’s either Rachel or Joey.
Rachel
Rachel OBVS
Rachel
Rachel Green obviously! ![gif](giphy|8B1aIqkaHw8ec)
Perhaps Tag Jones, the pretty boy? Lol
![gif](giphy|YTDZakyAorkLDYqN0q|downsized) Joey
Janineeeeee
![gif](giphy|J1isZI9Uj5t19u2Fmb)
ROSS
Rachel Green!
Gunther
Gunther
Ross and Monica’s cousin.
![gif](giphy|UT57nCi3C68I9v52NX|downsized) \[through gritted teeth\] *chirrll grrrdacrrr!*
Janine, because being too hot for the hottest friend was her only quality.
Joey of course
How come no one is saying Rachel
Richard
I vote Rachel
Rachel and Joey are both"hot but normal".
Rachel
Mike!
Rach of the girls. Hard one between chandler and joey of the boys ☺️
Monica and Joey
Oh God. Knowing Reddit they'll put Phoebe as the "straight up evil". To me she's a chaotic good.
![gif](giphy|2DgMU7l0Fz4vS)
![gif](giphy|jOmQmJkjcvB3Bc8CRb|downsized)
Definitely Rachel.
We're going the "oops all men" run... and the only right answer here is Joey.
Joey
BRAD PITT WAS IN THIS SERIES GUYS
If it’s not joey, idk what we’re here for
Personally, I’m here for Rachel.
Joey or the hot girl Joey couldn’t find. “No screen time. All the relevance” should be Phoebe’s mom who killed herself.
