Read more about Ross Geller at: Wikipedia Official Site: Warner Bros. Television Ross Eustace Geller, Ph.D. is a fictional character on the U.S. television sitcom Friends (1994–2004), portrayed by David Schwimmer. The character is noted for his geeky, lovable demeanor. Ross' first line in the show was a depressive "Hi", which became somewhat of a catchphrase for him in the earlier seasons. He is introduced as being in the process of divorcing Carol Willick after having found out that she is a lesbian. Ross is a paleontologist and has a Ph.D., frequently referring to himself as "Dr. Geller" or "Dr. R. Geller". Ross is noted for being geeky, witty, and somewhat artistic, showing an interest in the Metropolitan Museum of Art when he coaches Joey Tribbiani on the works of Monet when Joey tries to impress Charlie in the ninth season episode "The One With The Fertility Test". Ross has had a crush on Rachel Green since high school, although he founded the "I Hate Rachel Green" club with his and Monica's friend Will Colbert (played by Brad Pitt), who hated Rachel as she used to pick on him, mentioned in "The One with the Rumor". Ross is often teased about his hair by the group. An example is when Monica got a bad haircut by Phoebe, and when asked if they could see Monica, Phoebe replied "No, your hair all looks too good, it'll upset her... Ross, you go." Similarly in the episode, 'The one where Joey moves out', Ross expresses his dislike for tattoos by saying as if it is getting stuck with the same hairstyle all your life, which in return gets laughter from all the friends. He has had mishaps with his appearance, for example when he went to tanning salon he ended up with a deep tan (number 12 out of 3) on his front and no tan on his back by mistake in "The One with Ross's Tan". In "The One with Ross's Teeth" he decides to brighten up his teeth and whitens them but leaves the paste on for an extra day and his teeth turn glow in the dark.
Ross Geller has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
