The one where they watch Friends.. again.


At home we have the box set of Friends, and every now and again we go through phases where it will be the only thing on TV. Now is one of those times. 

This show only gets better as time goes on. Or maybe it's as we get closer to the mid-20s age that the Friends were when the series started. We go through similar situations, and at this age, we physically move away from our biological family and adopt a new family: the FRIENDS! We all know people with Ross' ability to make us cringe, Chandler's hilarious sarcasm, Joey's success with women and failure with his career, Rachel's awesome hair, an eccentric like Phoebe and a borderline OCD like Monica. If only we all had awesome apartments in NYC...

Friends is, quite frankly, one of the best shows ever to air on TV. The chemistry between the actors is amazing, the humour and the writing is unparalleled, and the fact that the characters are all household names speaks for itself. 

So that's what I am watching today, and probably for the next few weeks. Then the box set will be packed away and placed back on the shelf, until months later, we'll get in one of those moods and pull it out, dust it off and be reunited with our favourite Friends once more!
