FRIENDS...Forever
Having watched the likes of law & order (from early ninetees), adam 12, buffy the vampire slayer etc I can call myself a hardened TV buff . Being a big fan of soaps and tv shows since I were a kid, tv shows are not a new fascination. At least not anymore.
The one show I have watched more than any other is F.R.I.E.N.D.S . I bucked the friends trend for good long time and finally cave-in in 2000. I have since watched the entire series a dozen time if not more.
Each charecter was perfectly executed and well scripted. Charecters of main cast and guest appearances were anything but shallow.
I failed to develop similar level of interest in "Next-big-thing"s such as HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, 30rock, frasier, seinfeld or any other.
Best moments in FRIENDS is the one where Ross hides behind the couch at his ex's apartment where he went to pick his 'Salmon' tee.
Any recommendations? I dont think there will be any FRIEND-Killer. Not for a long time.

I like that joe's japanese mens lipstick ad. Just when that milk plug wasn't bad enough
One of my fav moments in FRIENDS is one from the "TOW cheesecake" episode in which both Chandler and Rachel fought over a cheesecake they both were addicted to. They were so desperate to have it that, even when the cheesecake fell to the floor they went for it. So there they were, on their knees and elbows, right in the middle of the corridor, trying to scrape of the last bit of cheesecake with forks!! Suddenly Joey came along and stared at them for a moment or two in their ridiculous position. He then fished out a fork from his jacket and said...
"So what are we having?"
Ugly Betty?Arrested Development?was watching friends season 2 today.......im laughing at Phoebe's singing and i love her teaching chrissie hynde "smelly cat."lol
I LOVE FRIENDS!!! I have all the series of Friends but unfortunately someone borrowed my dvd of the first episode and lost it. I couldn't stop cursing her. The first few episodes of Season 1 were not that great anyway. I'm still watching Friends from time to time. Before it was just me and my boyfriend. Now that we're married we watch it with our 5yr old son. He laughs even if he doesn't know what's going on TV. He already memorized the soundtrack. It lets you forget your problems even for just 30 minutes.

the whole Ross and Rachel dynamic. You are right, at the moment there is nothing to top Friends.

i recently finished the last series of FRIENDS. just yesterday i watched the additional features in the last disc. Friends of friends part 1,2,3. I love FRIENDS. They totally make me laugh. I bought the complete seasons which is quite expensive but so worth it. Almost all episodes are great but one of my favorites is that episode where Mike is moving in with Phoebe and Phoebe have to give up a work of art she consider, which was actually a distorted half body woman maniquin pasted in a big frame as though it was coming out of the frame. and both rachel and monica was dreading to have them but didnt want to upset phoebe. i think im going to watch friends over and over again...they are classic and will never go out of style.
