Popular TV show F.R.I.E.N.D.S completed two glorious decades of on September 22, 2014. The TV show was popular for its hilarious dialogues and sequences enacted by a crew of six motley friends mostly starting from the Central Perk coffee shop.
The characters were brought to life by Jennifer Aniston (Rachel Green), Courteney Cox (Monica Geller), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe Buffay), Matt LeBlanc (Joey Tribbiani), Matthew Perry (Chandler Bing) and David Schwimmer (Ross Geller).
Though the show aired its last episode in the May of 2004, the cast and their antics remain fresh in our minds. The jokes may be old but have the potency to leave viewers in splits even today. We take a look at 20 top hysterical moments of the show
Janice in Rachael's labour room
"Oh. My. God." Yes that's exactly what everyone (off screen) chanted when Janice entered Rachel's labour room. With her annoying 'nasal' voice and her shrieks while in labour, could test anyone's patience let alone poor Rachel's!
Chandler's affair with Joey's girlfriend
Friends don't date a friend's girlfriend, a rule that even Barney Stinson's The Bro Code
Rachael gives Ross' girlfriend a bald look
Hell hath no fury like Rachel scorned. And her patience should not to be tested, especially when she says that "They (Ross and Rachel) were not on a break". In a drastic step Rachel coerces Ross' girlfriend to go bald to take revenge from her former beau.
Joey won't let Emma take Mr Hugsy and food
Joey's appetite had a mind of its own. And therefore the 30-year-old doesn't feel the need to share his food or Mr Hugsy (his penguin) with Rachel's toddler Emma. Not on dates, not for kids- Joey made it very clear - "Joey doesn't share food".
Gladys and Glynnis
The most eccentric character in the motley group of Friends, Phoebe Buffay has many talents. She can sing, play a guitar, make sock bunnies, and horrific paintings - Gladys and Glynnis, she calls them. Neither Monica nor Rachel wants to keep the 'Original Buffay', but enter Glynnis and they actually fight over Gladys.
When Ross dated Janice
Friends also do not date Friends' ex-girlfriend, again corroborated by Barney The Bro Code
Joey gets locked in the cabinet
Oh Joey, your naivety was the high point of every episode. Though Joey's gullibility is evident in many sequences, our favourite is when he gets locked in cabinet by robbers.
When Ross and Monica find out they kissed
The laughter was almost uncontrollable when Ross finds out that he in fact kissed Monica which he thought was his first kiss with Rachel (under a pile of coats), and that Ross was Monica's 'midnight mystery kisser' and her first kiss ever. Like a cherry on the top comes Chandler's snide comment "What did I marry into"!
Unagi
If Phoebe is eccentric, Ross has had his moments of bizarreness too. Remember Unagi (no, not the sushi). Ross' insistence that Rachel and Phoebe should be able to achieve a state of total awareness called Unagi brings about the best of 'Ross humour'.
Joey speaks French
Joey is truly an actor with many many qualities, but it is his fluency in French which bowled us over. Take a look:
Monica kisses Richard's son

The ghost of Monica's first serious relationship with her dentist Richard comes to haunt her through his son Timothy. When Monica kissed Timothy it reminded her of his father creeping out of the young lad.
Princess Consuela Bananahammock
Phoebe is 'fun and different' than the rest of the gang, and thought she deserves a name befitting her qualities. The actress rechristens herself as Princess Consuela Bananahammock, post her marriage since 'no one else has a name like that'.
Ross and Racheal rap for Emma
Parents can go to any lengths to make their kids laugh, and Ross and Rachel can rap 'dirty' to make Emma smile.
When Monica cuts off Chandler's toe
Revenge is dish best served cold. Chandler clumsily offends Ross' 'fat sister' Monica, and a year later a slim-as-a-needle Monica plots her revenge to get back at Chandler by seducing him. However in a twist of events she ends up cutting off his toe. Ouch!
Ross gets tanned
Ross thinks he knows it all, until he visits a spray-on tan salons. Dr Geller makes a complete fool of himself as he gets tanned by 16 shades only because he counts 'Mississippily'.
Ross' insanely white teeth
Ross is a total goof which he proves time and time again. Case in point- the time when Ross whitens his teeth until they are 'insanely' white and shine in the dark room while on a date.
Monica and Ross' Cousin Cassie
Monica and Ross have a hot cousin Cassie. Her charm and sensuousness strikes down the gang one by one - first up is groom-to-be Chandler, then Cousin Ross and finally Phoebe.
Smelly Cat song
Phoebe has many renditions of her famous song Smelly Cat Smelly Cat
Ross and Rachael's Vegas wedding
Given their eventful history, Ross and Rachel were bound to get married, and they did - only they were drunk and had no clue about what was happening. As Chandler and Monica queue up outside the chapel in Las Vegas to get married, they are greeted by "Mrs Ross and Mr Rachel".

One of the best love stories of F.R.I.E.N.D.S
