[S1E22] The One With The Ick Factor

Rachel has erotic dreams about the guys, starting off with sex on the coffee house table with Chandler. This makes Ross jealous. Some time later, Rachel fantasizes about Joey and Chandler (pointing out that \"there were times where it wasn't even me\", implying homosexual tendencies between the two men). Ross can't be more jealous of the guys for \"sleeping\" with Rachel. Meanwhile, Ross gets a pager at the number \"55JIMBO\" to receive notice when Carol goes into labor. People keep paging him with requests for man named \"Andre\", who is seemingly a gigolo at the number \"55JUMBO\".

Things are starting to calm down in the lives of the friends, when Ross eavesdrops on Rachel fantasizing about him in her dreams. His euphoria is such that he starts jumping on the table, but slips and lands on Rachel, waking her up. Just as things may finally get started between the two, Ross' pager beeps, this time with the real thing - Carol's in labor, she's about to give birth - Ross is about to become a father.

The first season of Friends, an American sitcom created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman, premiered on NBC on September 22, 1994. Friends was produced by Bright/Kauffman/Crane Productions, in association with Warner Bros. Television. The season contains 24 episodes and concluded airing on May 18, 1995.

Early reviews of the series were generally positive.[1] In the Los Angeles Daily News, Ray Richmond named the series as \"one of the brighter comedies of the new season\",[2] and the Los Angeles Times called it \"flat-out the best comedy series of the new season\".[3] Tom Feran of The Plain Dealer wrote that the series traded \"vaguely and less successfully on the hanging-out style of Seinfeld\",[4] while Ann Hodges of the Houston Chronicle called it \"the new Seinfeld wannabe, but it will never be as funny as Seinfeld.\"[5] Chicago Sun-Times' Ginny Holbert found Joey and Rachel's characteristics to be underdeveloped,[6] while Richmond commended the cast as a \"likeable, youth ensemble\" with \"good chemistry\";[2] Robert Bianco of USA Today was complimentary of Schwimmer, calling him \"terrific\". He also praised the female leads, but was concerned that Perry's role as Chandler was \"undefined\" and that LeBlanc was \"relying too much on the same brain-dead stud routine that was already tired the last two times he tried it\".[7] The authors of Friends Like Us: The Unofficial Guide to Friends thought that the cast was \"trying just a little too hard\", in particular Perry and Schwimmer.[8] People Magazine said that the \"saving grace\" is that the characters become more likable as time goes on.
