The first-ever episode of "Friends" aired 20 years ago today

It's hard to imagine it's been 20 years since Rachel walked into that coffee shop in her wedding dress, on Thursday, September 22, 1994.

Friends is without a doubt the television show that I've watched more than any other, and likely the one program that has impacted my life the most.  If I had to guess, I'd say I've seen each episode an average of 5-6 times (some only 2-3, some 10 or more).  Here's a recently published ranking of all 236 of them.

Without spending hours (or possibly days) working on this, I think my two favorites are the Season 1 finale when Rachel finds out Ross loves her:





And the one where they played a trivia game on a bet that led to the apartment switch (which should be called "Miss Chanadler Bong" in my mind, at the five-minute mark):



As a bonus, I'll throw the "Bamboozled" clip in here as well:



Funny how they used the expression "google card" before google was "Google."
