How old is Ross Geller?
In season 3 of Friends, Ross Geller says that he is 29 years old.
In season 4 of Friends, Ross again states that he is 29 years old.
In season 5, Ross talks about getting divorced twice before turning 30.
Is Ross stuck in some sort of time dilation where he doesn't age, perhaps being in denial about his age or is there some other explanation for how he doesn't seem to get older over a three year period in the show?
Best Answer
FRIENDS Wiki points out that:
Ross's age is treated inconsistently by the show's writers, the best evidence is that he was born on October 18, 1967.
There are several episodes in which Ross's birthday/age is either mentioned or hinted at, but they often contradict each other (click the link for details).
