Friends

The TV show-FRIENDS


When I was little, my aunt was obsessed with the TV show, 'Friends'.  Being to young to understand the humor of the show,  I wouldn't stay entertained too long (lets face it, I wanted my Disney movies instead).  However, when I was about 13 years old, I began to thoroughly enjoy the reruns playing over and over on TBS.  It has now become my favorite show and I am proud to say I have seen every episode...more than once.  Watching these six hilarious friends go through relationships, everyday problems, celebrations, and friendships is so interesting to me.  




Joey is this big time, simple minded player who can 'just look at a woman and her bra popped open'.  He is very smooth with the ladies however, he is 'not all there'.  All of his attempts to know what he is talking about end in epic failure.  The truth about Joey though, is that he is a true friend to the whole group and will always be there for them. 




Monica is the 'mom' figure of the group.  She's the leader and has to have everything her way. Monica is overly OCD and can't stop cleaning and organizing all the time.  She can be super hard to deal with but everyone will always be fed and have everything they need at all times because Monica is always overly prepared.




Ross is Monica's nerdy brother who happens to be a bit of a hopeless romantic.  Being a paleontologists, Ross has this obsession with dinosaurs and science. He is and always will be madly in love with Rachel, despite their nonstop fights and disagreements.  Ross is also a wonderful father.




Rachel comes into the show as this spoiled, rich, daddy's girl who ran off before her wedding.  Throughout the show she learns what it means to 'fend for herself' in the big city.  Rachel has everything handed to her all her life and now she must do everything for herself.  Rachel has her blonde moments and gets herself into messes but she has some major comebacks.




Chandler is one of my favorite characters.  He always has some sly remark or funny pun that he likes to slide in after somebody says something.  Chandler will always use humor as a defense mechanism and it works almost every time.  I absolutely love his character and the way he balances out Monica when they begin their relationship.




Best character on the show, Phoebe Buffet. Completely random all the time.  From her intriguing song writing to her insane theories and explanations, Phoebe steals the show.  The reason why she is me favorite character is her wild personality.  I love how incredibly happy and excited she is about everything.


I highly recommend this TV show for anyone who wants to have a good laugh; always entertaining for me.

  1. This is one of my favorite shows as well. I'm actually watching it as i type this. Joey is my favorite character though. Chandler and Pheobe are both very funny, but Joey steals the show with his irresistable charm and dumb comments. He is always in trouble somehow, may it be falling in love with Rachel or helping Pheobe find a new man.

  2. I was actually going to do my blog assignment over Friends too (but not anymore), so I was really excited when I saw you were! I've been watching Friends since first grade and I still can't get enough of it. I got my roommate hooked on it this year and now we're watching all of the episodes in order together! It's so hard for me to choose a favorite character since they're all so quirky in their own ways, but I would probably have to pick Phoebe as well because you never know what you're going to get or hear from her!

  3. I absolutely LOVE this show. I have all of the seasons and watch them religiously! When I watch Friends, it never fails to make me laugh. It's hard to pick a favorite charcter in this show because they're all awesome, but if i had to chose... Phoebe and Joey have to be my top two. Phoebe is the most random women ever, I wish I knew someone like Phoebe, and the things Joey says are just hysterical.

  4. Friends is an awesome show! I wish they still could make new episodes. Ross and Rachel were so cute! They were all so crazy when they were together and their drama was funny, which is what made the show so good. It was an all around good show, they don't make good tv shows like this anymore.

  5. I love watching this show! I can watch the same re-runs over and over. Everytime I watch this show, no matter how many times I have seen that episode it never fails to make me laugh. Phoebe is by far my favorite, she is so funny and reminds me of one of my roommates.
