The One Where Joey Did Porn...

Warning: Spoilers
I really enjoy this episode. It's really funny and I love every aspect of it.

In this episode, everyone discovers that Phoebe has a husband, who is a gay ice dancer. She married him because he needed a Greencard, but she did love him. She finds out that he's not gay, that he suddenly realized this, but he doesn't want to date her. I feel so bad for Phoebe. Meanwhile, Rachel gives Ross very bad relationship advice about his new girlfriend Julie, because Rachel secretly wants to break them up. When everyone is yelling about being surprised that Phoebe was married, and wondering why she kept it a secret, many secrets come flying out. Which is probably my favorite minute of the episode. We find out that Chandler has a third nipple, the panties on the telephone pole are Monica's from when she had sex with Fun Bobby on the terrace and Joey did porn and the gang have a very fun time watching it. But, it wasn't real porn, I mean it was, but he didn't do anything sexual in it. He was meant to, but he chickened out. So instead, he's the guy who walks in the on the couple having sex. At least he has no shame.

Overall, I give this episode a 9 out of 10.

Jennifer Aniston Was Cold Filming This Episode
slightlymad224 December 2014
An OK episode nothing great but a lot of fun.

Plot In A Paragraph: When the gang find out Phoebe married a gay Canadian ice dancer so he could obtain a green card, more of their secrets are revealed like what Joey did to get a bit of work experience in the acting business, whose underwear are on the telegraph pole and who has a third nipple.. Meanwhile, Rachel gives Ross bad advice on his relationship with Julie, in an attempt to stop him having sex with her.

All the gang are good here, some parts of it seemed a little forced, and you can see the close bond between Monica and Chandler in this episode.

And for the second episode in a row Jennifer Aniston was really cold during the filming of this episode.

The laugh track in this one was working harder than a one armed taxi driver with itchy nuts

The One with Phoebe's Husband
ComedyFan201018 June 2011
Warning: Spoilers
This episode was kind of slow. The story about Phoebe's husband had potential but it didn't work out as great as it could. Although the scene where he comes out as straight is pretty good. Very well written dialogue how he talks about deep down always knowing he was straight but wanting to fit in and how his parents will be fine with it

The beginning where we find out about Chandler's nubbin is kind of good and them watching Joey's porn was funny

Other than that the story mainly concentrates on Rachel trying to stop Ross from sleeping with Julie. It leads to a very touching moment at the end where she realizes how much he wants it and actually gives him advice even though it hurts her
