Season 6

In the premiere Ross and Rachel’s marriage is established to be a drunken mistake and, although Ross is reluctant to do so, the two get a divorce (Ross’s third) after failing to get an annulment. Monica and Chandler decide to move into her apartment together and Rachel moves in with Phoebe. Joey, still a struggling actor, gets a female roommate and a part on a cable television series called Mac and C.H.E.E.S.E., where he stars alongside a robot. Ross gets a job lecturing at New York University and starts dating his college student, Elizabeth. Bruce Willis makes a three-episode cameo as her father. Phoebe and Rachel’s apartment catches on fire, causing Rachel to move in with Joey and Phoebe with Chandler and Monica. In the final episodes, Chandler decides to propose to Monica. Trying to make it a surprise, he starts acting like his old commitment-phobic self, telling her he opposes marriage. For a brief moment Monica considers going to back to Richard, who confesses to her that he still loves her and is willing to have children with her. Monica gets wind of Chandler’s idea, and attempts to propose to him but breaks down in tears and cannot finish. Chandler then asks her to marry him and the show is ended with celebration with many of the friends who were standing outside the door.

It was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series at Emmy Award 2000.
