For me was when Billy Crystal and Robin Williams did their skit in the beginning of the one with the ultimate fighting champion. It's not that it wasn't funny, it was just kind of random. Almost like it was improvised or something. Anyone else agree?
shareIt's not that it wasn't funny
Lol I wasn't sure if I was supposed to laugh or not when I watched it.
shareMost probably it's a reference to some movie or show but I never cared enough to confirm it
shareRobin Williams and Billy Crystal's random scene was to promote an upcoming movie they were costarring in called Father's Day.
My vote for strangest celebrity guest apperance was Danny DeVito as a stripper. I *beep* you not, that actually happened.

The sun is shining... but the ice is slippery.
Father's Day...that movie stood the test of time. Thank God for the Friends promotion!

Consider the daffodil. And while you're doing that I'll be over here looking through your stuff.
Yes, this one was the most disjointed. Even other celebrity appearances that we might not like, at least they were written characters into the storyline!
sharei think the reaction of the cast sums it up pretty well
shareBrad Pitt. Just obvious publicity ploy.
Agreed.
shareBrad Pitt publicity ploy? lol. The show didnt need publicity by its 8th season. Trust me... Pitt was only on there because he was married to Jennifer Aniston.
sharePublicity for Pitt, not the show.
shareHe didn't need publicity in 2001. Ocean's Eleven had been tearing up the box office. He was dating Aniston at the time and did it as a favor.

That was one of my favorite episodes! He was absolutely harsh and rude to Rachel, and it was hilarious. Then more and more secrets come out about their younger years that you wouldn't see coming. Loved it!
shareIt's definitely the strangest. As for the worst? Well, it's definitely also ONE of the worst. Can't stand Brad Pitt's guest appearance either.
shareYeah I didn't care for Brad Pitt either. He was good looking and was with Jen so that's why everyone went crazy over that episode lol
sharewhy the hate for his guest appearance though, aside from all that? i like Pitt as an actor and as for his actual role, it was funnier than him just being some date for one of the girls like a lot of the other male celeb guests
shareHelen Hunt
shareWhen I first watched the episode, I never really got the whole hype of the Helen Hunt and her lady friend guest appearance.
I didn't even know who she was before I saw "Twister", lol (I was 11 at the time).
This was 2 years before that movie, so I was like: "Why are the audience going crazy?"
Then ofcourse, I realised afterward, they were playing characters from a sister sitcom they were in that linked Phoebe's twin sister Ursula.
I guess if you're not from the US, you'll be left in confusion with that episode.
I completely agree with this one being the strangest. It's also got to be one of the worst. I respect them both, and may Robin rest in peace, but it was SO out of place! Neither of them even acknowledge the Friends, just randomly continue their conversation once they've plonked their backsides on the couch, and when Joey tries to interact with Billy Crystal, he shrugs Joey off. I think it's Joey who intervenes anyway - it's been a while since I watched that scene for obvious reasons.
shareyeah it was definitely the most half-baked of the ones i can remember at least
