Trivia:
When Ross & Russ are doing the crossword puzzle with Chandler they disagree on whether the correct word is Card Shark (Russ) or Cardsharp(Ross). They are actually both correct terms with Cardsharp predating and giving rise to the term Card Shark. more

Russ: You're jealous because I'm a real doctor.
Ross: Hey, you're a doctor of gums. That's the smallest body part you can major in. It's like day one, floss, day two, here's your diploma.

The One with Russ, 6 May 2008
8/10
Author: Jessica Kolk from Brazil

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Joey is angry because of his failure as an actor. He eventually gets an audition for the soap opera 'Days of our Lives', and since he slept with the casting lady, he got the role of doctor Drake Ramoray

Monica starts to date Fun Bobby again. The Friends start to notice that Fun Bobby is an alcoholic and Monica talks to him to stop with this terrible habit. The problem is that Fun Bobby stops to be ''Fun'' when he quits drinking, becoming a very annoying person when he is sober. The situation gets inverted, and Monica is the one who needs to drink to enjoy staying with Fun Bobby.

Rachel starts to go out with a guy who is totally similar to Ross, Russ.

(Hilarious end: Julie & Russ getting together!)
