Friends (TV Series) The One Where They're Up All Night (2001) User Reviews

The one the friends go to the roof to see the comet!

[Lady_Targaryen · 8/10 · 17 March 2009]

The Friends are trying to see a comet that Ross wants to show them. (The Bapstein-King) Everybody is annoyed, specially because they are almost 2 hours waiting for the comet and the night is very cold. One by one, they all go away, letting only Joey and Ross alone. Joey takes the pipe that was holding the door open to use as binoculars, and now they will need to use the fire scape to get off the roof. None of them wants to go first.

Chandler cannot sleep and tries to read a boring book and to drink hot milk, but nothing works. Monica wakes up and they switch of who wakes up and who sleeps. (When Chandler sleeps, Monica wakes, and vice versa)

Phoebe is stressed with the noise of her fire alarm, that stays beeping all the time, until she destroys him.

Rachel is worried that Tag didn't send some contracts she gave him to be sent in the day, and they go to their office to check if they are there yet or not.

The One Where They're Up All Night

[ComedyFan2010 · 8/10 · 22 August 2011]

It is interesting in this episode how everyone doesn't want to hear what Ross got to say about those comments. I can see that people may not always want to hear a lecture about something that is not the main topic of their interest on a free night, but if I would be watching the comments I sure as hell would like to know something

I really liked the storyline of Ross and Joey trying to get down from the building. Well acted by both and very funny. It just irked me when they both were saying why they don't want to jump and people laughed when Joey said "We are even", as if only people who have kids have a right to live and not be injured

Rachel and Tag were fun as well. I liked how at the end Tag ended up putting the forms on her desk even though she trying to cheat

Monica and Chandler weren't bad too. Pretty funny. I especially loved the ending, brilliant!

And Phoebe was alright, but I think her storyline was the least funny one

Issues All Night

The gang go to the roof where Ross wants to show them a star. They groan when Ross starts to lecture and teach. The gang leave except for Joey and Ross. Joey has his eyes on two girls and he previously mentioned wow look at that rack. Ross realizes that is the pipe that was holding the door. They climb down the fire escape and Ross slides down Joey resulting in a hilarious scene.

Phoebe is annoyed with her fire alarm beeping and throws it out in the trash chute. A fireman comes and gives it back saying it is illegal to dismantle it.

Rachel and Tag are having sexy time and are kissing when Rachel realizes the important paper she must ensure gets delivered. Tag claims the folder was never on his desk so they go to the office to see who is right.

Chandler cannot sleep and bothers Monica. Monica says she is sleeping meaning herself. Chandler and Monica have sex. At the end they have seven minutes before Mon has to wake up and Chandler was thinking of using it for sex. Monica on the other hand gets up to clean excitedly.

The One Where They're Up All Night

A real hodgepodge of plots here, with some working well (Ross/Joey and Phoebe and...her smoke alarm), with others falling flat (Rachel/Tag and Monica and Chandler).

I think that's the reason I've never really liked the 7th series, the plots across episodes vary too much in consistency.

Truly awful episode

[Dougal16 · 1/10 · 19 May 2023]

I recently watched this episode again. Oh my God, just an unbelievably awful episode.

The writers had clearly run out of good ideas a long long time ago. Monica & Chandler can't sleep, Ross & Joey can't get off the roof, Phoebe (who has turned into a shouty headcase. What happened to quirky, weird Phoebe?) is kept awake by her smoke alarm, Rachel & Tag return to the office to find lost papers... oh dear Lord... what happened to 'Friends'?!

How they squeezed out another three series after this, is baffling. They should have stopped after the London/Emily storyline.

This was just awful awful stuff.

Is not realistic

The fireman mis a good looking guy. Why did Phoebe fall in love with him ?.. If it was a white guy they gonna make her fall in love .

I never see Phoebe , Rachel or Monica fell in love with a Blackman though they re many black guys in New York..
