I wondered which, if any of you are fans of "Friends". I know a lot of people hate it, I absolutely loved the show and can watch it again and again, for me it is the ultimate comfort show.

So did you like it? Favourite episodes, lines, scenes etc?

I had the 1st 5 series on VHS. After that it was a bit.... well, boring to be honest.

I thought it was ok. I like any episodes with the monkey. It got real sickening towards the end. I couldn't watch it.

I loved it too, and I still enjoy watching the repeats. It is indeed perfect comfort television, perfect thing to watch if you're hungover or dosed with a cold.

Can't pick out favourites, the post would be too long. In general though, Joey was the funniest character in Friends. His spin off show was shite though.

It wasn't all bad at the time - something harmlessly amusing to watch when there was nothing else on. I never really followed it much though. The best thing about it was Phoebe's songs! Smelly Cat rulez!!

I watched it for a couple of series. It was ok, funny in parts. I thought Chandler was the funniest character.

Chandler and Joey were a great double act, and yes Smelly Cat rules. :mrgreen:

Well it's confession time for me. I actually think this programme is vacuous, unfunny, self consciously cute and at times cringe making. ..but

I was ill three years ago with cancer and was off work for four months and stuck indoors for a good part of that with not much to do. I started watching the series and got hooked. Eventually I ended up buying the whole fucking series on DVD!

I know - I feel deeply ashamed. It won't happen again, I promise!
