The One Where Rachel Meets the Gang
If you don't want to re-watch the entire pilot episode, might we at least suggest the scene where Rachel enters the coffee shop and officially joins the gang? It's the first time we see the six friends together, so it's worth at least a couple of minutes of your time. It's from season 1, episode 1, The Pilot.
The One Where Joey Wears Chandler's Clothes
Joey steals Chandler's spot on Monica's comfy chair, causing an argument between them which eventually escalates to Joey wearing as many of Chandler's clothes as he can, while also going "commando". The scene is from season 3, episode 2, The One Where No One's Ready.
The One Where Ross and Rachel Break Up… Again

Ross falls asleep reading it but takes responsibility anyway… until he doesn't. The scene is from season 4, episode 1, The One with the Jellyfish.
The One with the Jellyfish
Speaking of jellyfish, we couldn't skip over the hilarious adventures of Monica, Chandler, Joey and the mischievous jellyfish from the same episode. It turned out to be quite the traumatising event.

When Chandler doubts his ability to satisfy his new girlfriend Kathy in bed, Monica gives him some handy tips and teaches him that there are seven female erogenous zones, to surprising results. The scene is from season 4, episode 11, The One with Phoebe's Uterus.
The One Where the Girls Lose the Apartment
Also known as the scene that inspired the trivia game in the reunion special. When the girls bet that they know the boys better than vice-versa, a tough competition to determine the truth ensues. The stakes are high, the questions difficult, the acting stellar. From season 4, episode 12, The One with the Embryos.
The One Where Ross Says the Wrong Name
At the altar is really the worst place to say the wrong name, don't you agree? This history-making scene is from season 4, episodes 23 and 24, The One with Ross's Wedding.
The One with Monica's Turkey Head
As the main characters recall past Thanksgivings, Chandler realises that Monica severing his toe when they were younger wasn't quite as innocent as he thought. He gets upset, so Monica asks for forgiveness by doing a dance while wearing a turkey on her head. These two were clearly meant to be. From season 5, episode 8, The One With all the Thanksgivings.

The One Where They Have to Pivot

Phoebe's songs are all over the place, but you have to agree that Smelly Cat is her biggest hit, at least as far as the show's fans are concerned. Watch a mash-up of her tunes to brush up on the lyrics.
The One Where Joey Pushes Ross into the Fridge
When Joey's fridge breaks, he can't afford to fix it on his own so he tries to convince his friends to contribute. While all the interactions are funny, Joey pushing Ross into the fridge takes the cake. From season 6, episode 19, The One with Joey's Fridge.
