Just rewatching Friends again. 18:48 - Sep 25 with 3668 viewsSwailsey

FYI - rewatching friends, does anyone else think it was really hamfisted how Ross and Rachel ended up together? Like, nothing for 2 seasons and then all of a sudden they are back in love? It’s stupid.

Chandler should have been with Kathy.

Monica with Richard.

Phoebe with David.

Ross with Emily.

Rachel and Joey actually worked. Although the story line was cringe and way too blatant. They should have done it years ago.

Thanks.

I'm relieved to say I have never watched a single second of Friends, and have no intention of doing so.

Yep, very ham fisted - think the issue was they should have stayed together in reality and that was what needed to happen to square off the series - but wouldn’t have worked with Monica and Chandler and those 2 as a couple for the last few seasons.

Just don’t think Ross and Emily ever worked either

I don’t agree about Rachel and Joey. I think it made Joey look a bit dodgy for going after his mates ex missus. Any of my mates did that to me, I’d not talk to them again. For Ross to just be over it so quickly, I didn’t buy it.

Ross with Emily? She was a controlling witch!

I liked the early, middle seasons the best. Best ever episode in my opinion was where Joey and Chandler won Monica and Rachel’s apartment in that game.

I hope they do a reunion one day. Not one episode, but maybe half a dozen episodes seeing how they’re all dealing with parenting, seeing Joey happily settled, etc. . That would be cool.

All I saw in friends was a bunch of episodes of gag tennis unfortunately, I watched another episode the other day when in a waiting room, and I didn't see much in it unfortunately. Hey ho, the world disagrees with me

If I hadn’t grown up up watching it I may agree, it’s really hard to separate.

The first few seasons mean loads - something about the vibe and style of it - I think because I was growing up and wanted to be like that - for right or wrong.

It’s definite comfort viewing for me, I think that’s what sees me through some of the patchy later episodes.

Plus I think I definitely modelled myself on Chandler.

I never got it. The episodes I did see seemed riddled with gags that were then explained and canned laughter. I couldn’t find anything remotely funny in it.

Friends parties, or Parties with friends? Both are equally baffling concepts to me either way

Alright Swailesy.

You are a good sort. but Friends was/ is total fcking sh1te. 5 narcissists, and a nice blonde woman who had done too many mushrooms,

Turn that guff off, and watch some real talk, like Ever Decreasing Circles.

I quite liked Big Bang and starting watching it - light relief etc.

Then I'd seen a few and noticed a pattern, like an exact pattern

in. every. single. episode.

Much like kids films go on a journey, get a bit lost, self realisation, return and prevail.

I think that's the truth of the matter.

that's two people admitting they've formed a strong opinion on something they've never watched. The irony in thinking you are above something when you are someone who forms an opinion on a baseline of zero experience on the subject matter is classic.

I remember all the teenage edge lords back when Friends first came out spent a lot of time slagging it off and calling it crap. You know they were watching it on the sly!
