Becoming somewhat of a classic show, Friends screened on television from the 22nd of September 1994, through to the 6th of May 2004. When the show was at it's peak during the ten years it aired on TV, it attracted more than fifty million viewers. After more than two hundred and thirty individual screenings, ten full seasons had been edited for television.
At the time of the last episode, Friends had amassed so many viewers that it was recorded as the episode that attracted the most attention in more than a decade, catapulting the show to the status of fourth most watched finale in television history. When the show finally came to a close, it remained ranked in the top ten television shows for a full week, and it is still considered to be one of the top television sitcoms in history.
The Friends show highlighted the lifestyles of a group of friends who lived in Manhattan. Each episode was filmed at the Warner Brothers Studio, in front of an appreciative live audience. Having received no less than sixty-three Primetime Emmy Award nominations, the show made history yet again. By the end of the series, a spin off show called "Joey" had been created.
If you were not fortunate enough to have seen the show as a sitcom, it used to air every Thursday. It was one of those shows that for half an hour, and sometimes an hour each week, people would laugh, cry and the share the episode at work the next day.
As with any show with this much appeal, of the six main characters that played their respective roles, there would always be reasons to love and hate them. Two of the main characters, Rachel Green and Monica Geller, were always the best of friends. Courtney Cox and Jennifer Aniston were the two actors who played these parts. Rachel was a skilled enthusiast of fashion, whilst Monica earned her reputation as the Mother hen to all of the friends. The third of the girls in the show was Phoebe Buffay who was played by Lisa Kudrow. She was not only a masseuse, but a very eccentric self taught musician.
Then there was Monica's brother, Ross Geller, a part played by David Schwimmer. He worked as a palaeontologist at a local museum. One of the most popular and recognized characters was Joey, somewhat of a womanizer. and played by Matt Le Blanc. Our last character, Chandler Bing, marries Monica in the seventh series, played by Matthew Perry.
Even today, seven years later, the show is still watched around the world as reruns, and it is also available on DVD, so those who were hooked by the show can watch all of their favorite moments whenever they want to. Friends was known to be responsible for a massive cultural impact. As an example of this, the Central Perk Coffee House has in fact inspired so many other coffee houses around the world.
