Ross (David Schwimmer) chooses to be the only one who doesn't know the gender of his unborn baby. After Paolo (Cosimo Fusco) gets fresh with Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow), Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) dumps him -- and Monica (Courteney Cox) gives him a sort of present. As for Chandler (Matthew Perry) and Joey (Matt LeBlanc), weren't they supposed to buy a kitchen table instead of what they ended up bringing home? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Ross (David Schwimmer) feels left out of his ex-wife Carol's baby-making process in more ways than one. Monica (Courteney Cox) tries to impress her parents with the world's cleanest apartment. Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) learns the fate of Barry (Mitchell Whitfield), whom she left in the lurch at the altar (and who doesn't seem too distressed over the humiliation). And Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) reveals that she has a twin sister, a "high-powered, driven, career type" (thereby "explaining" Kudrow's recurring role as Ursula the waitress on Mad About You). Watch for the first appearance of Gunther (James Michael Tyler) at the Central Perk. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Any rules about certain sensitive, hot-button topics being off-limits for sitcom fodder went out the window after this classic episode. When Kramer and Poppie team up to finally make Kramer's make-your-own-pizza idea a reality, tensions rise as the two debate at which point a pizza becomes a pizza. Meanwhile, George tracks down a copy of the film adaptation for the book he was supposed to read for his book club, and Elaine begins dating the delivery man who brought Jerry his new couch. Jessica Hecht, who played Carol's lover Susan on Friends, guest stars along with Reni Santoni and Patton Oswalt. Originally airing October 27, 1994, "The Couch" was the fifth episode of the show's sixth season. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide

Who wants to eat anything at Monica's (Courteney Cox) Thanksgiving dinner when everyone can watch the runaway Underdog balloon at the Macy's Parade?

And Joey's (Matt LeBlanc) latest modeling job leads to embarrassing implications. With this episode, Jane Sibbett takes over from Anita Barone in the role of Ross' ex-wife, Carol. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
