Friends Series 9 - Could it 'be' any funnier? - By: J.V, 24 Mar 2008 
Series 9 of Friends begins with Rachel saying yes to Joey's "proposal" at the hospital. It shows Ross & Rachel looking after baby Emma while living together. There are certain memorable scenes in the series including Ross getting hooked on Maple Candy & alll six of them trying to win the lottery. This series sees the introduction of Mike Hannigan (Paul Rudd) as Phoebe's boyfriend & Charlie Wheeler (Aisha Tyler) as Joey & then Ross' girlfriend. The season finale in Barbados is probably one of the best two-parters in the whole series. Also, Phoebe's old boyfriend from Series 1, David, the scientist guy (Hank Azaria), returns from Minsk. Definitely a DVD for a true Friends fan.
Second to last series!!! - By: , 16 Mar 2006 So we're reaching the end but that doesn't mean the jokes are getting worse & the storylines are fading away; it just gives more of an opportunity to show off the geat talent behind the scenes. This time there's a new baby, more proposals &
"The one with the Sharks". Again, it makes for absolutely fabulous viewing & it's totallly possible to watch them for an entire day. Thoroughly pleased with my purchase & I'm definately going to complete the set!
Eternal Fan - By: , 12 Mar 2006 I don't believe there is a Friends fan out there who doesn't love them alll.
I found this series way after everyone else, bought the lot & watched it every night for AGES .... I never tired of it once.
This one? A treasure, like alll of them.
Great series, not so good packaging. - By: , 07 Jan 2006 
As lots of people, I love Friends, & feel that Series 8, 9 & 10 take on a different tone to previous series. Series 9 & 10 in particular certainly focus more on the relationships, with many storylines coming to a head. Adding to that, the humour becomes if possible even better, & more surreal (if that can be applied to Friends!) then this is an almost perfect series. The only quibble I do have is the box set itself; perhaps I have been spoilt on other box sets such as Frasier, Lord of the rings etc, but the 3 flimsy disc sets of an individual, plain disk, is rather disappointing. That said, its not the box you'll be looking at, but enjoying 24 wonderful episodes.
Be careful - packaging and sound quality not as good - By: , 23 Nov 2004 
I bought this edition as the price was incredible, & owning alll other 8 of the series - also thought it would be good to save some space. Be warned though - the sleeves are in ultra thin cases with no real defined spine to define them, & the paper used is very cheap - looks a bit like a good colour copy from the original. Dipping inside, we now have 4 episodes on each side of the disc which is great - but although picture quality is good enough - the sound has been downgraded from the 448kbps HQ track on the previous sets (4 to a disc with extended versions) to 192kbps of the older DVDs.
Also, the subtitles are enabled by default so I had to turn them off for each new side or disc played.
Altogether disappointing as there was plenty of room for Warners to leave the audio at high quality.
