Friends are the best sitcom. Period. I'm such a maniac, I literally cried after the show ended... Partly because Ross and Rachel came back together, MonDler had babies and stuff... But more importantly, it was the last f'n episode, and I want MORE, DAMMIT, MORE!!
My ranking would be like this:
1. Chandler [Funny as hell, and those gay moments really suited the character ]
2. Ross [iMO the best actor on the show... he could act with a tree as a partner and still be successful]
3. Rachel [Well, she's hot, plus she had many great moments, some of 'em were pretty hilarous]
4. Joey [i always liked Joey the best, from the beginning, but later, when I grown up a little I've seen the painful truth - the character doesn't have too much depth, if it has... Matt LeBlanc couldn't show it]
5. Monica [i KNOW!]
6. Phoebe [Pretty funny, really weird, and overally good, but not really in other's league...]
