Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Season 5: Divorce number two is immediately on the cards as the year opens with "T.O. After Ross Says Rachel". As of this point, Ross' character undergoes some extreme personality changes (which apparently lost Schwimmer many female fans). His incessant whining drives all the Friends to distraction, especially in "T.O.W. Ross Moves In" with Chandler and Joey. Later things get uncomfortable both at work and at home when he goes through a period of rage ("T.O.W. Ross' Sandwich"). While all this downplays his failed relationship with Rachel, the real idea is to allow focus on the secret pairing of Chandler and Monica after a night of passion in London. This made for a return to the show's appealingly silly atmosphere as poor Joey is made piggy-in-the-middle of everyone's secrets. Building to "T.O.W. Everybody Finds Out", the silliness pauses for some genuinely touching interplay between Perry and Cox. The previous year's semi-serious thread about Phoebe's birth gets forgotten fast: to distract the viewer she's introduced to Gary (Michael Rapaport) in "T.O.W. The Cop". This leads to some hilarious parodying with Phoebe interrogated about apartment hunting, and the guys excited and then scared in "T.O. W. The Ride Along". She's more than over him by the time of the two-part finale "T.O.W. In Vegas" though, especially since she missed out on London. Just in case fans thought Chandler and Monica had permanently stolen the spotlight, a cliffhanger shocks expectation again with Ross and Rachel bursting out of a chapel... --Paul Tonks

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant continuation of an already excellent series, 9 Mar 2000
By A Customer
Episodes 1-4 of Series 5 are indeed comedy classics - the aftermath of Ross saying Rachel in the wedding vows is brilliantly put together, with great interaction with famous British actors such as Jennifer Saunders. The suspense and tension is well contrasted with the other Friends' lighter comments made by characters such as Joey and Phoebe. The surrogacy issue is dealt with sensitively, and despite the fact that 'Friends' is a comedy, the writers have made room for a tearful and moving end with no inappropriate comic interjections, which would spoil what is a serious subject so it is not ridiculed or demeaned in any way. There is an extremely funny episode dealing with Chandler and Monica's secret affair and entwined with it is the issue of deceit and frienship which is portayed well. The first four episodes herald a gem of comedy the rest of the episodes in Series 5 are no disappointment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loads of Fun!, 11 Mar 2000
After a much anticipated wait the suspense is over. The dramatic ending of Series 4 (Ross 'incorrectly' saying Rachel's name at his wedding) leaves the viewer waiting for the new series. And you wont be dissapointed. This series is fun, enlightening, and with a touch of serious issues. I never get tied of watching the friends gang. These videos can be watched again and again.
