For the first round, how about for the guys
- a. Monica, Phoebe, or Rachel
And for the ladies
1.b. Chandler, Joey, or Ross.
And now in the second round,
- Jennifer or Mary Ann?
Umm, think you misspelled “Ginger” there, man.
No, everyone asks Ginger vs Mary Ann.
Actually, I meant to type “Bailey” instead of “Jennifer”.
Bailey vs Mary Ann would be a hard choice for me to make.
-
I never watched Friends except for some clips, but my vote would definitely go for … Kathy.
-
Bailey instead of Jennifer. No-brainer.
-
Mary Ann instead of Ginger. Of course.
I’d have them both at once. :o
Bailey for sure.
And, I am surprising myself, but I think,on balance, Phoebe.
Are we talking a short term fling or a long term deal?
Also, why don’t the ladies get a round two? Are we assuming Joey, Chandler, or Ross would convert them to lesbianism? Ross apparently did that once, but I dunno about the other two…
- I find them all attractive but I think they would all drive me insane. I’ll pick Monica.
Mary Anne of Bailey, easily.
Ross.
Then, terentii is absolutely right, Kathy. And since that would not be a long-term relationship, finally, Bailey.
Although, to be fair, Jennifer was never just arm candy; she was also bloody smart.
Here’s one:
Briscoe, or Logan?
And for the guys (and the women who picked Ross), Benson, or Beck?
I would never kick Jennifer out of bed, but Bailey’s dewey-eyed innocent look, combined with that hair and those eyeglasses, just makes me melt inside! :o
I’m sure Jennifer was much higher maintenance. And Bailey would probably appreciate you more. Jennifer would probably always wanting you to go to parties where she’d have to translate everything for you. Didn’t she speak like, four languages? and I doubt one of them was Yiddish.
BTW, terentii: totally with you on Kathy. When Paget Brewster was on Criminal Minds, I’m surprised there wasn’t a fad for rhinoplasty where women had their noses made bigger. I have a, um, ethnic nose, and I know Brewster isn’t Jewish, and I also know I don’t look like Paget Brewster, but I love that her profile is so goddam sexy, with that nose. Not in spite of it, or because of it, but just, that’s how it is.
¿Que? 
The only person in my family who may have needed Yiddish was my Great-Grandma Matkevich, back in Austria-Hungary.
Jennifer and Bailey are like Daphne and Velma: As far as I’m concerned, a bob haircut, freckles, glasses, and schoolgirl-type outfit trump a hot blonde anytime! :o
Oh, yeah! That nose, those bangs, those eyes, that pouty mouth, and those legs that come all the way up to her neck! :o
If she had been a regular on Friends (and worn nothing but a jersey and socks every week), I might actually have started watching the show.
I mean, I doubt any of the exotic, yet useful languages Jennifer can charm the pants off foreign dignitaries in, are the same languages I know, one of which is Yiddish, which is not an especially glamorous language. So any place Jennifer takes me where English is not spoken will invariably be some place with a language I cannot speak.
I’m thinking for long term: Bailey or Mary Ann
I’m leaning towards Mary Ann.
I’m not a fan of Two and a Half Men, but I always read the descriptions to see if it’s a Jane Lynch episode, and I watch those. Once, I noticed Paget Brewster was appearing on an ep. called “A Lungful of Alan,” so I watched. If you have a chance to see her in that, do.
She has a great face. Please, please never let her get Botox, because her face is so wonderfully facile.
Of all the people mentioned so far, Mary Ann is probably your best bet for long term, although you have to wait for her to get rescued first.
I thought they made it back in the second special. It’s only Ginger who is still there, as some younger lady must’ve washed up on shore and taken her identity.
As for the question, I agree Kathy is gorgeous, and so is Brewser to this day (and my tastes are not all that forgiving to aging stars) but I’ll stick with the questions asked. (Especially since I don’t remember Kathy at all on the show.)
Phoebe is cray cray, but she’s the best of the bunch. I think I could learn to live with her eccentricities. I could not live with Monica’s, and Rachel is just too much drama.
I haven’t seen WKRP in a long time, so I had to supplement my memory with wiki. She seems like she’d be more my type. Sure, Mary Ann is better than Ginger, but she’s nowhere near as intellectual as Bailey. And I very much like shyness.
And while Jennifer is smart, what I remember of her is that she’s got the conceited aspect that makes Ginger a turn off. Plus I just don’t like her looks.
