Sam Taylor Observer (UK) 02/24/2021
Friends is light entertainment at its sharpest and most attractive. Go to Full Review Catriona Wightman Digital Spy 06/27/2018

4/5
It's encouraging that the characters, writing-all the elements that made the first season so enjoyable seem to have remained consistent if not gotten stronger. Go to Full Review Adam Chitwood Collider 03/21/2018
The show's second season was an improvement over the first, embracing some of the things that worked (Ross and Rachel) and abandoning a few of its more outlandish premises-though it's still not quite "top tier" Friends. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Put it on in the background, or just to get a laugh in from chandler’s quick wit or joeys iconic moments. All the characters are absolutely incredible and so is the show. I can’t not love this show with my whole heart!!! See more Ali J @a_blank 12/28/2024 This is better than the first season because it’s more witty and the Ross and Rachel relationship is a bit on-and-off before they officially start. I did feel bad for Julie because she was a nice character, but she did find Russ. I did agree with Rachel about the pro/con list. This season also introduced Eddie as the temporary roommate of Chandler after Joey moved out for working at Days of Our Lives; I found Eddie a bit annoying because he started out funny, but then never left Chandler alone. I also felt bad for Joey after he was killed off of Days of Our Lives. I also liked the start of Monica and Richard’s relationship, and their breakup is pretty emotional. See more Read all reviews
