Friends has just arrived on Netflix UK and, if you're anything like us, you've been binge watching like crazy which means you’re probably somewhere in the series’ twilight years right now. Monica (Courteney Cox) and Chandler (Matthew Perry) are coupled up. Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) have Emma (Noelle and Cali Sheldon), and it’s pretty clear that the on-again, off-again pair are headed toward a romantic reunion as well.
It would have been pretty cheesy if the brains behind Friends also decided to pair off Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) and Joey (Matt LeBlanc). Three perfect matches in one friend group? Come on. Next, you’re going to say that they could actually afford to live in a ridiculously large apartment in Greenwich Village on waitress and chef’s salaries, and could always get the couch at their favourite coffee shop. That's just crazy talk!
Instead, consider the time in the series’ infancy when all six of the friends were free agents. Anyone could have dated anyone. Now, weren’t Phoebe and Joey the likeliest candidates to at least try hooking up? If you're still on the fence about this one, let these 10 reasons further convince you that Phoey (okay, maybe their couple name could use a little work) were truly MFEO.
