The Blog of Eternal Boredom: JCR

Still indulging my Friends spree and my boredom. Just ignore me.

Another part of this show that I absolutely adore are the three boys. Oh. Em. Gee. They crack me up the hardest out of everything in this show! I mean, each of them individually are hilarious, but the three of them together (or at least two of them) are just comedic gold!

I cannot with these three. Meet...

JOEY TRIBBIANI

CHANDLER BING

And
ROSS GELLAR

JCR as I labeled them in the title. The boys of the show. All three of them are such good friends, but... they're guys so they usually have that kind of "macho" thing going on. Like, "we need to do something manly".

So they usually aren't very openly affectionate with each other (I guess is a good way to put it). However, they always manage to get themselves into such awkward, and/or seemingly gay situations. That's one way they get me to laugh. Another thing, they just get so immature when they're together. They turn into these goofy little kids and play games with each other. Also, they're boys! Like, "do you think it would be awesome if we could keep throwing this ball around for two hours?" or they invent dangerous games like Fireball, etc.

As I did before, I'm going to give just a brief background for each of them:

Joey is the oldest of eight children, with seven younger sisters. He eventually became an actor. He often struggles to find work, but eventually he lands a major role in a popular soap opera, Days of Our Lives as Dr. Drake Ramoray. He eventually gets himself fired when he ticks off the writers by telling a magazine that he writes many of his own lines for the show, and his character

gets dropped down an elevator shaft. He then goes back to his struggling career. He temporarily gets a lead role in a TV series as Mac in Mac and C.H.E.E.S.E. but the show gets cancelled. Eventually, Dr. Drake Ramoray gets brought back with a new brain in Days of Our Lives. He is rather dim-witted and gullible, but big-hearted and caring. He is a major womanizer and the most physically powerful out of all his friends.

Chandler... see previous post (HERE) 8th paragraph down.

Ross is the oldest of two children with one younger sister. He attended college and became a paleontologist. He has had three divorces throughout his life, which are constantly a source of humor with his friends. He is the geekiest out of his friends, always

taking interest in long boring lectures, books, TV programs, etc. and he often makes his friends read/watch/participate in them much to their dismay. He is a magnet for bad luck. Out of the six friends, he gets into the worst situations the most. He can never catch a break, always in the wrong place at the wrong time. (Closely followed by Chandler).

Ross and Chandler met at college. They were roommates. They became close friends and started a band called "Way No Way" that never took off. Ross even brought Chandler home for Thanksgiving. They made pacts with each other about which girls they couldn't date because they didn't want to ruin their friendship. They made a firm pact that they would be friends forever. And they were.

Chandler met Joey while looking for a roommate after college. He originally did not pay much attention to him since he was the last applicant and had already made up his mind that he wanted someone else. However, there was a mixup (on account of Chandler's crazy neighbor telling the new roommate that HE was the new roommate) and Joey ended up moving in since he was the only other normal applicant. The two bonded over Bay Watch and beer. Soon they became inseparable. (Just a note, I love how they fight like a married couple).

Joey and Ross met through Chandler obviously. I believe it was in the bar below Chandler and Joey's apartment building before it was turned into a coffee house.

Here's what the girls have to say about them:

Alright, there are no more words. So, just because I like to, I'm going to put a bunch of clips of them together on here. You'll never get through them all!
