Facial expressions, voice changing, body language, rapid mood swings, played a drunk guy very well (which often actors overplay), the sad scene of the first breakup with Rachel, where he cried.. he just did everything amazing. Doesn't matter if you love or hate Ross, David Schwimmer's acting created one of the greatest characters in the sitcom history.
@@nolan5698 Oh yes!! The scene after Ross' night with the copygirl, she (they) made me forget I watched an actress. Or when she acted giving birth, so extremely realistic, especially knowing she never gave birth in real life. Aah, there are so many moments, she's phenomenal in Friends. Too many to sum up.
Matthew was unique in being extremely funny in short sharp lines and behaviour, but David has the capacity to be extremely funny in longer scenes, like for example the opening scene in this video, from the beginning to the end. He's hilarious, also in subtle facial and physical expressions, and the sounds he sometimes makes!
@@gaysy1stYou’re kidding right? All I see is hate from so many fans’ comments on RU-vid and Facebook groups . And then there are those few who appreciate just how funny he is
No one hates Ross, the thing people hate is the show hyper focusing on Ross-Rachel relationship. I personally do not mind it but I can see why people wouldn't like that.
Yeah, people hate the character, not the actor. Personally, Ross is my least favorite friend for a lot of reasons, especially because of his relationship with Rachel, but David is a brilliant actor and the show would not have been the same without him.
David Schwimmer is so brilliant with his physical comedy! He breathes life into scenes with his exaggerated movements and inspired gestures. An utterly skilled performer! Seems to be a genuinely decent human being too. 🙂❤
David was the best actor on the show. His reactions created at least half the most iconic moments you remember. And his character doesn’t deserve the hate it gets
@@jesterday2222everyone seems to consider Ross as their worst character which is ridiculous considering half of the great moments on the show came from him
@@Daniel-qw7mm ross is the least likeable out of the 3 male friends and oversteps boundaries/does self-serving things most frequently. that doesnt make him a bad person, id say thats a net of all positive and negative actions, but would explain negative feedback. this video reminded me of the upside of how funny the character can be and how good schwimmer plays the role.
A lot of people might not like Ross but David really is the most talented out of them all, in my opinion. His facial expressions are unmatched and it’s extremely hard to make such an awkward character funny.
I think Ross is overhated, he's really bad in relationship but when it comes to be a friend, a father or a brother, he's just the kindest. He's a great guys and i think that he's the character with the most values, principles and maturity of the six. David carried this character and i think he don't get the recognition he deserves.
The hate comes from trolls, I believe, so their opinion hasn't any value to me. I think the majority of the viewers at least likes him and many love him. Edit: (some of the hate)
When I first watched Friends, Ross was my least favourite character. Now after a few years of growing up and a few rewatchings, he's actually the funniest character in Friends to me 😂
Whenever I have to move a heavy object at work, I normally declare "Pivot!", and nine times out of ten, people have actually picked up on the reference. 😅
L is for... life and what is life without love? O is for... OH WOW!😂 V is for this VERY surprising turn of events E is for how EXTREMELY normal I find that you two are together... One of his best lines without a doubt! 😂
I haven't seen this show in probably 10 yrs. But I caught one of the compilation videos last month. It lifted my spirit. And I have fallen in love with "Friends " all over again. 😊
My mom loves Ross so much during like season four to like 10 and her favorite Ross moment is the leather pants and I always like to watch friends with her because whenever she laughs I laugh.
That leather pants scene with him on the phone with Joey and he tries to sound like he's not panicking - he physically executed that writing with absolute brilliance.
13:13 I liked when Ross waved a magazine, patted cold water then covered his legs in powder and sticking lotion on his legs creating a paste trying to get his leather pants back on and coming out of Elizabeth's bathroom without his pants on is one of the funniest Ross moment.🤣
English is not my first language. When "Friends" originally aired I was learning English and I watched it in Italian. At that time, I thought Chandler was the funniest. After watching it again in English...no way. Ross is just the best. His voice makes me crack every time. Absolutely hilarious ❤
Ross was the best n funniest character and has the most funniest scenes....David played the character amazingly well...exceptional acting....he deserved an emmy
whoever wrote Joey hooking up with Rachel clearly doesn't understand why they'd just be weird and creepy for even considering it. everyone's reaction to it seem unnatural and forced because nobody bought it, not even the actors
Ross in unapologetically my favorite character of the show. Not only he’s obviously hilarious and David Schwimmer did an amazing job with the role. But also how is it possible to not have sympathy for the guy when you realize all the bad stuff that happened to him during the show?: -the 7 years long (!) messy "relationship" with Rachel (obviously) -the divorce with Carol because if you go beyond the sitcom stuff "lol his wife is a lesbian that’s hilarious" it totally destroyed him and made him unable to trust (season 3 episode 12) -the multiple divorces and accidental pregnancies which again if you go beyond the funny sitcom elements are quite sad because all Ross has ever wanted was a marriage and a family (season 8 episode 5) So yeah despite his flaws (a character without flaws is boring anyway + other main Friends characters also have huge flaws but it’s swept underneath the rug) Ross deserves more love
I just love FRIENDS,they are a big part in my life. I love the show,i love the actors,i love the characters. Thank you for being here for me on rough times. Matthew i miss you even tho i never met you.
love ross... with his super white teeth glowing in the dark, leather pants, botched tanning session, the routine (with monica), and his beautiful pig 😅
I don't like Ross but by God do I extremely love and enjoy david schwimmer's acting. he created one of the best sitcom acting and is one of the best sitcom actor
"i have 7 Catholic sisters.. ive taken care of hundreds of kids.." i felt that as an Italian ex catholic lol The one with the big tongue and beautiful wife.. i totally missed that joke!
I am so very thankful for uploading a collection of Ross iconic moments in Friends cause believe me I definitely enjoyed them the most in the show. Time to watch and rewatch.. and am FINE btw
Do I need to watch Ross's scenes for an hour?? YES, I DO!! David is a genious! Salmon shirt, leather pants, fake British accent, whitened teeth and spray tan a GOD level of sensuality.
I love that he tries to attack Monica, no way, that’s not what happened he’s trying to prepare an attack from Monica, because you never know with Monica is going to attack him
To the people hating on Ross saying he's a red flag.... Dude, its a comedy tv show its not that serious. I dont think a comedy tv show its a place you should look for role models 😂 In my opinion the funny part about his character is that he always gets what he deserves. Also, David's physical comedy it's top notch
What I learned from watching FRIENDS is that in America you can be comfortable enough with the person you're dating to kiss or make out with them, but still not be able to tell them if you have a little problem with your pants or your teeth. 😄
@@lizlee6290 thanks for the precious teaching! I feel obliged to reciprocate by telling you that even comments on youtube can be sarcastic, especially if the author puts an emoticon at the end 😉
Cracking up at Ross and the leather pants! David Schwimmer's physical comedy is iconic. Friends has stood the test of time and the lack of PC BS makes it even better and more refreshing now than it did when it originally aired. Comedy at its finest!
Aww some of my favorites weren’t there. Even the 2nd half of the 1st clip when he’s at dinner drunk and is serving the sizzling pan of fajitas with his bare hands, or when he and Monica did the “Routine.” I love the one with the 2 birthday parties for Rachel and he puts on Rachel’s dad’s glasses and his cigarette in his mouth. I also love when he does the British accent when he’s teaching the advance college class. And one of my favorites is when someone eats his sandwich at work and they have to medicate him and make him take a sabbatical.
His facial expressions are epic! Not many actors can do that. That's why Ross is one of my favorites. His acting is unpredictable and even after watching an episode 100 times he still amazes me with little details that I hadn't seen before and that make me laugh so much! 👌🏼🥰✌🏼
