Season 1 Episode 1: "The One Where Monica Gets A Roommate"

Ciara and Christine Season 1 Episode 1

In our debut episode, we dive into Friends Season 1, Episode 1, "The One Where Monica Gets a Roommate." We break down all the iconic firsts: meeting the gang at Central Perk, the beginnings of Ross and Rachel’s will-they-won’t-they story, and Paul the Wine Guy’s memorable (if questionable) charm. Along the way, we chat about how we fell in love with Friends, dream modern guest stars, and the best TV pilots of all time. Plus, we share loads of behind-the-scenes trivia—like alternate names for the show, bold character choices, and the story behind that iconic orange couch.
