Watched The One with Rachel's Date today. Another episode where Joey uses air quotes successfully when describing himself as an "actor"

I saw this too and thought hey joey does know what they mean but to be fair he is directly copying Ross as he does it first. Poor poor Joey, waving his fingers in the air like he knows what he's doing
When Chandler is trying to get into Monica's secret closet that is locked Joey is helping him. Joey asks him if he has a hairpin and Chandler says he'll go and see if Monica has one. As Chandler walks off Joey says "Sure "Monica" " using the air quotes as he says her name. |

But Joey does the air quotes on his own accord without copying someone else in another scene.

As Chandler walks off Joey says "Sure "Monica" " using the air quotes as he says her name. Poor innocent Joey just air quotes as he deems appropriate from observing his higher intellectuals and attempting to mimic them, hoping one day he will live in their world. It's only when the testosteronely charged challenge-to-Alpha-Male-status-Ross directly challenges Joey using this superior power of air quotes that Joey must submit and admit he does indeed not know what they are for * * nah that's all bollix the writers made a **** up on this. GRIPE! |

I tried to go back through the episodes to when Monica was doing her seating plan and tried to work out the weeks but then my brain melted
On a side note I sent my invites 6 weeks before but it was a small family wedding and most people already knew the date. What kind of wedding Monica and Chandler had is undisclosed. How they resolved their differences on how Chandlers money should be spent was never really.. Uhm... Resolved |

I'm pretty sure Rachel says she was meant to be doing it weeks before that, but forgot and left it until then.

Despite trying many times, I have never managed to watch a complete episode from beginning to end as the "humour" is so predictable.
Contrast that with Cheers, Frasier, Taxi etc. |

This was so incredibly far-fetched... (but i found an explanation for my gripe)
S1 when Chandler tries to break up with Janice. She buys him Rocky and Bullwinkle socks. Looking online, the show ran between 1959 and 1964. One can assume that Chandler was born around 1970, I thought it was odd that you'd buy a partner something that was on before they were even born. I was born in early 90s, so i'd be surprised if i got a present from a TV series of the 80s. Music is different. You hear old music everywhere but most TV series don't get repeated much. However, found out that the show aired in syndication on Nickelodeon from 1990-1994 so that makes sense. Oh and the fact he had a pair already. |

Contrast that with Cheers, Frasier, Taxi etc. I think you can sometimes have this thing where a show is so successful that it defines a genre to the extent that the original is eventually is seen as cliched. What I mean is that Friends lead to a lot of shows trying to copying it's format and style of humour - so for someone that didn't watch it the first time round you look back and think "well this is all a bit boring/predictable". I actually have this problem with Seinfeld - I tried to watch it for the first time about 10 years ago and I was just bored. I made it half way through the third series and gave up. But I love Curb your Enthusiasm. |
