11/12 – I feel like such a geek, but I really love that show :)

Same here, Debi. And I’m enough of a geek to know that Joey was playing a tape for his grandmother, and he was on Law & Order, not a soap opera.

Aw, I *thought* I was a Friends fanatic, but I only scored 5/12. Apparently I need to watch them again. Darn. :)

Debi? Jenn? You’re not geeks. 12/12, my friends. I believe the geek is me. (Yeah, I also dominate at the Friends Scene-It game. My life is so full.)

what other episode featured all the main characters singing? ’smelly cat’ is just that kind of a song.

5/12 D:
Wasn’t there an episode where Ross dedicated “In My Room” by the Beach Boys to Rachel? Or am I imagining things?

The theme song is performed by The Rembrandts but according to the credits it was written by Allee Willis and Michael Skloff.
