"The One After the Superbowl" [sic] is a double-length episode of the American television sitcom Friends' second season. It originally aired on the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) in the United States on January 28, 1996, immediately after NBC's telecast of Super Bowl XXX. The network's decision to air the episode directly after the Super Bowl was made in hopes of making it the "highest-grossing ad-revenue day in television history." Guest stars in the episode are Brooke Shields, Chris Isaak, Julia Roberts, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Fred Willard, and Dan Castellaneta. They were cast to draw more viewers and further increase the advertising revenue.
