"With a Little Help From My Friends" is a song written by the Beatles (and expertly covered by Joe Cocker) and it could easily be the subtitle for the thirty minute comedy, "Friends". In 1994, the idea was created for "Friends": a show about six friends in New York as they navigate their way through life and learn to grow up as they approach the third decade of their life. All, with the help from each other to get them through the obstacles that life naturally has for us. Monica is the excessively neat and organized "older sister" of the group, who works as a chef while yearning to find her ideal love. Ross, Monica's older brother, is a paleontologist with a lifelong crush on Rachel. He is a laid-back man with low self esteem and a recent divorcee. Rachel is the pretty, bubbly girl who spent most of her life as a spoiled rich princess. Now she must learn to face the real world. Chandler is Ross' college buddy and the guy who will crack jokes at a moment's notice. Phoebe is a lovable eccentric masseuse who easily could have fit in with Haight Ashbury in the 1960s. And Joey, the friend who has an inverse relationship between his good looks and his intelligence. He dreams of becoming an actor. These six individuals make up the cast of Friends.

In May 2004, Friends officially ended it's phenomenal 10 year run. The show's time slot was taken over by a spin-off called Joey.less «

• FRIENDS - This or that game.

  I got this game from the Full House forum. You answer the question that the person writes down then write a question yourself On this or that. You can go as many times as you want. I'll go first. Phoebe or Joey.

  Simply THE best show ever hide « show »

  Friends has changed the world of American comedy and is the show all comedy shows nowadays are compared to. And probably because of this perfection many shows like How I Met Your Mother and of course Scrubs did not follow its footsteps but use a different kind of humor.
  Don't get me wrong - I love Scrubs with its mix of comedy and drama and I also like HIMYM. But the only show I find myself laughing constantly after seeing an episode for the third or fourth time is friends.
  No other show has a cast where I love every single member without any exceptions (with Scrubs its Carla, with HIMYM, its many of the supporting actors) and all of the recurring ones are very well picked, too.
  The story arc is remarkable and its the ONE and ONLY show I know which could keep up with its quality for such a long time.
  With FRIENDS you can laugh, you can cry and you can forget yourself for a while.

  YOU FELL ASLEEEPP!!?? hide « show »

  Friends is a timeless classic. You cant find shows like this anymore! I love every episode from The One With Monicas New Roommate(aka Pilot) to The one Where Pheobe Runs to The Last one. Every episode brought you closer and more in love with each of the charecters. Weither they're getting free porn , married for the third time, weither they're hating pbs, or changing they're name Banana Hamic, or even one they're one a break they had America's attention for 10 years. But if your ever feeling sad you can count on your friends to be sitting at the coffee house waiting to cheer you up!

  i love friends it has to be one of the best comedy show EVER its great if you dont already watch it i suggest you do . I think friends should bring out a movie called the one where they make a movie it will be awsome just like the show x x its about 6 new yorkers who go through thick and thin with each other it is quite sad sometimes and you cry with them but they do have laughs and they are like one big family !
  
  
  
  i have lots of ideas for a movie if they do bring one out fingers crossed ehh !!!!! if they dont bring out a movie they should aleast do another 5 series and in them 5 series ross and rachel should get married and pheobe and mike should have a baby together!! id love to see how monica and chandler are coping with the twins erica and jack x x -xx sasha
