the gang are still as daftly charming as ever. After the birth of Emma, Rachel comes to terms with being a mother surprisingly well. It's how everyone else deals with it that makes things interesting. Joey's accidental proposal creates weird friction between him and Ross, who breaks his finger throwing the show's first ever punch. Monica becomes desperately broody and attempts all manner of convoluted ways of persuading Chandler (unfortunately he inadvertently bankrupts them in a move to Tulsa). Phoebe, on the other hand, occupies herself in the dating game, holding on to Mike (Paul Rudd) in the longest guest star relationship anyone's ever had. Other surprise guests this year include Freddie Prinze Jr as an overly sensitive nanny (in the 200th episode), Christina Applegate as another of Rachel's sisters and Jeff Goldblum playing himself on the set of another movie on which Joey is trying to get a break.As always the sparks occasionally fly between Rachel and Ross, while the others manage to strain their own relationships to the max. The real reason for watching now is the one-off kooky scenarios in which they--or rather Joey--get into. His endless dating finally sees him stuck for remembering if he's already slept with a girl; he botches an attempt at eyebrow waxing; and he manages to make Chandler think that Monica wants a breast enhancement. A 10th series and potential movie spin-off were announced well before the year was over, meaning six very rich actors will be supplying the fun for some time yet to come. --Paul Tonks

Advantages: Incredibly Funny, classic Friends Disadvantages: Leaves on a cliffhanger, I don't believe the ending suited the group but thats a personal opinion!
This DVD sees the familiar Friends gang in the final three episodes of series 9, culminating in a trip to Barbados to see Ross' speech.
The episodes on the Disc are:
1: The one with the fertility test
2: The one with the donor
3: The one in Barbados (Part I&II)
The first episode sees Joey hook up with a co-worker Charlie (Aisha Tyler) who Ross likes. This sparks an incredibly funny exchange ... ...sound intelligent to impress his new girlfriend, with Matt Le Blanc putting on a classic performance projecting Joeys lack of common sense. When Janice shows up at the fertility clinic with Chandler and Monica, an awkward situation arises that is familiar to many of the exchanges when Janice appears!
The second episode I found incredibly funny, with the exchange between Monica and Chandler to perspective donors. I found this tongue ... more

When Janice shows up at the fertility clinic with Chandler and Monica, an awkward situation arises that is familiar to many of the exchanges when Janice appears!
The second episode I found incredibly funny, with the exchange between Monica and Chandler to perspective donors. I found this tongue in cheek and the writing is impeccable to make the situation incredibly awkward but you can't seem to turn away because it is awkwardly funny.
The final episode is a double episode and this is the series finale and to tell you much about it would ruin the episode and all I am going to say is to listen out for classic quotes from Joey and Chandler, especially when they arrive in Barbados for the first time. With the reappearance of Mike (Paul Rudd) and David (Hank Azaria) there is a tug of love for Phoebes affection. This coupled with Ross, Charlie, Joey and Rachel all revealing secret feelings sets up series 10 to be a great final series in the popular TV programme.
As a DVD to watch in your spare time, this DVD offers a good collection of episodes that are a good watch and are classic Friends, with the storyline taking twists and turns to help set up the final series. However, I would recommend buying the whole box set of the series to get the full collection of episodes but as an aside, this collection is an excellent blend of light entertainment and classic comedy.

As series nine reaches its climax, the love lives of the six New Yorkers is as complicated as ever. Things come to a head when they all decamp to Barbados to see Ross's big speech at a conference. Phoebe has to choose between Mike (scared of commitment) and former boyfriend David (home from Siberia). Meanwhile Joey and Rachel come to terms with their feelings for each other, which is lucky as Ross has gone off with Joey's girlfriend! Includes the episodes The One With The Fertility Test, The One With The Donor and concludes with the double episode, The One In Barbados.
