Friends

From TeeVeePedia, the Internet TV Encyclopedia.

Friends was a long-running situation comedy series on NBC. The show was about the lives and loves of three beautiful young New York City professional women and three male friends who were either beautiful or professional, but never both. The series appeared to take place in an alternate universe with almost zero ethnic minorities; the resulting drop in population may have explained the apparent ease with which the characters afforded spacious Manhattan apartments.

The Early Years

In the early years of Friends, the show was a favorite among twentysomething-aged viewers. Experts suggest that the show gained a broad following thanks to its integration of a monkey into the main cast. Also, many women watched the show so they could instruct their hairdressers about how to give them Jennifer Aniston's haircut.

The Later Years

Friends, in its final season, had turned all of its characters into caricatures of themselves, and just as the Sun will swell in its later years, engulfing the Earth, so too did Matthew Perry get larger as the series went along. However, he did not swallow the Earth. The Earth did swallow the series' spin-off, Joey, after less than two mediocre years on the air.
