In a welcome change of pace, the relationship complications in this volume of Friends Series 8 fall upon Phoebe as "The One with the Tea Leaves" hooks her up with a stellar cameo from Alec Baldwin. He reappears for the elder Gellers' 35th wedding anniversary party in "The One in Massapequa", where it turns out some white lies have been bandied about to cover Rachel's pregnancy. Then, in what seems like a complete stand-alone episode, "The One with Joey's Interview" has Matt LeBlanc on top form preparing to be interviewed by Soap Opera Digest. Naturally he goofs things up big time. His next disaster awaits him when hosting a new quiz show, but this is all secondary in "The One with the Baby Shower" to Rachel realising how scatty her maternal instincts are while her own mother gets underfoot. This episode features an impressively emotional performance from Aniston as she comes to terms with coming into term. --Paul Tonks
