"Friends: The One with Ross's Inappropriate Song

[ComedyFan2010 · 8/10 · 8 September 2011]

This is a good episode. I loved the story of Emma laughing. It is just so funny that she laughs to this song. And having Ross and Rachel rapping how they like big butts was great as well

The story of the videotape was pretty cool too. I liked how Joey threw both Chandler and Monica on the floor so that they don't see what they thought was Monica in action. Was also happy that Richard deleted the video

And the best part was Phoebe meeting Mike's parents. Was pretty funny how she was trying to be like them with her clothes and accent. And the still let the Phoebe out with punching Mike's dad and telling them about a pimp spitting in her mouth. Also great that she threw up in their closet. Serves them right for feeding meat to a vegetarian

I looove this episode!

Ross wants to make Emma laugh, so he starts to sing a rap song ( Baby Got back) from Sir Mix-a Lot. He has success in making Emma laugh for the first time, and when he tells Rachel about what happened, she doesn't like and tells him how terrible parent he was to sing a song like that to their daughter. She tries to make Emma laugh doing other things, but ends up singing the same song to her.

Joey wants to know about investments,specially now that he is making a lot of money with the soap opera ''Days of Our Lives.''. Monica tells him that real estate is the best investment, and that Richard is selling his great apartment. Joey decides to see the place and Chandler goes with him, but when they arrive there, they see a tape with Monica's name in it. Chandler is pretty sure that it is a sex tape with Monica and Richard, and takes the tape to see in his house.

Rachel helps Phoebe to choose nice clothes to meet Mike's parents and also tells her how to behave. Mike's parents are from Upper East Side,Park Avenue, and Phoebe tries to be different to please them. Mike tells her that she should be herself, and many funny situations happens after he says that.

Brilliant!

Okay, so i love EVERY episode of friends...but this one cracks me up every time i watch it! I just think is hilarious to watch Ross and Rachel singing 'Baby Got Back' especially when they are both singing and dancing and then the rest of the gang come in and Rachel carries on oblivious to their presence! I also love it when Phoebe goes to see Mike's parents and tries to act posh - "heres something rich, 13 bathrooms in this place i threw up in the coat closet...Tatar!" - pure gold! I think the fact that everyone is used to Phoebe's - I suppose 'blondeness' - just makes it so typical of her, but because Mike's parents aren't used to this, their reactions are brill! All in all another fantastic episdode of Friends! Not to be missed! x

The One Where Phoebe Meets Mike's Parents...

[taylorkingston · 9/10 · 1 June 2015]

I love this episode. It's so funny. My favorite "segment" of the episode is the way Phoebe acts around Mike's parents.

In this episode, Phoebe meets Mike's parents, but is very nervous. She puts on an accent and pretends to be "upscale". Mike's parents don't approve but Mike doesn't care because he loves Phoebe. Awww! Meanwhile, Ross sings Baby Got Back to Emma to make her giggle and smile, but when Rachel finds out, she is furious. Until she herself sings the song to make Emma laugh. And whilst in Richard's apartment, because he's selling it, Joey and Chandler find a tape marked Monica, and they think it's a sex tape. When they watch it, and Monica walks in, they discover that it's not Monica, and that Richard had taped over her.

Overall, I give this episode a 9 out of 10, which in my ratings book is: Amazing.

I Like Big Butts and I Cannot Lie

[vivianla · 30 December 2020]

Ross sings a rap song that is dirty and Rachel disapproves the lyrics. It's about a man who likes sex with girls who have a tiny waist and a big round thing in your face.

Phoebe asks the girls which dress to see Mike's parents at their house for the first time. They are rich and the girls say neither. Rachel dresses her up and Mike opens the door. Phoebe looks like an early 2000s preppy girl.

The gang opens the door and see Ross and Rachel singing Baby Got Back to Emma. Ross sees them and stops but Rachel keeps going a little bit longer.

the one with the 200th episode

[stephen_quinn_3991 · 10/10 · 21 January 2007]

Ross makes Emma laugh by singing Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back." Joey and Chandler, viewing Richard's old apartment, discover what they think is a tape of Richard having sex with Monica. Phoebe goes to dinner with Mike and his parents, where they encourage him to date somebody else. He tells them he loves Phoebe though. Very funny, Pheobe talks in a very posh accent and at the end uses the accent to say,"heres something rich, 13 bathrooms in this place i threw up in the coat closet...Tatar!" hilarious! Also the 200th episode. gr8 but not as spectacular as the one hundredth when Phoebe has her triplets. Gotta love it!

Perfect, this is Friends!!

[diegoBrasil · 10/10 · 8 May 2020]

This episode recover the real Friends. The friendship of all them were so dead since Mônica and Chandler got married. Chandler come back to Friends and all the cast work very well here. There is true in this episode, not only any story to fill 30 minutes.

Another strong episode

[studioAT · 6/10 · 6 August 2017]

This is a really funny episode of the show, with three good story lines.

I liked that Phoebe is now in a serious relationship and the way that Mike stood up for her in front of his parents. Paul Rudd has been a good addition to the cast.

It was lovely also to see Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc working together in this episode, and although it was unclear quite why Chandler is so threatened by Richard, there were a lot of laughs in this story.

Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer singing/rapping 'Baby Got Back' was also a particular highlight.

Unreasonable

[kevin_m_cooper · 2/10 · 31 August 2022]

What on earth would a girlfriend punch her possible father-in-law? And what on earth would she talk to her boyfriend's mother about how well her son performed in bed? How is that possible? Personally speaking, to be dramatic, or things like "it's just a comedy" don't even cut writers some slacks. They've screwed this. This is insane, being maniac! So inappropriate and abnormal, can't fit into Phoebe's character, even if she's a hippie!

Of course, occasionally writers would like to create gags, and for most of times, they did well on this show. There're quite a few bad gags, however, just like this one. They've gone way too far on this track, for example, making Joey an incredible idiot and a man-child... They should probably cut it out. It's not that funny.
