Friends is hilarious and has been my favourite show for a long time!
My favourite character is Chandler because he's a bit like me: clumsy, he tells inappropriate jokes, sarcastic...

One of my favourite episodes is the one where ross gets stuck in his own leather pants: genius! I couldn't stop laughing!

I wasn't really into friends until maybe the last couple of seasons. Now I just watch the reruns. My favorite character is Phoebe. I love the songs she makes up. Smelly cat is just brilliant!

Yes, some of her songs are funny but I don't like most of them.

But I have to correct myself: I said that there are no specials in the German versions but in season three there is something about the Friend's trip to London but unfortunately not much.

I can't wait until Season 10 is released, here.

Do you think that Crane and Kauffmann make all the jokes? The actors are excellent but the jokes they make are also very good and the persons who create them understand their work.

There are 12 writers for the show. If a joke doesn't work, they get together and think up a better one- or they ask the cast.

I've got the London Special on my PC, it's only 6 minutes long!

They tend to write the jokes that suit the actors, I've seen loads of behind the scenes stuff, it's really interesting...

Season 10 is very good, but Season 5 is the best by a long shot!

Wow, all this coool information about "friends"!! That is soo... cool... must improve vocabulary..... anyways

My favourite character is Phoebe!! One of her funniest songs is the one about "Grandma" which goes something like:

Well, grandma's a person that everyone likes,
She bought you a train and a bright shiny bike.

But lately she hasn't been coming to dinner
And the last time you saw her she looked so much thinner.

Then your mum and you dad said she moved to Peru,
But the truth is she died and someday you will too... lahlahlahlah...

My least favourite character would have to be Ross. Though sometimes he's funny as well

Joey and Chandler are very funny and I just love the show~

You don't like Ross? Oh come on! I know he's a nerd and he's whiny but that's what's funny about him! :lol:

How bout when Joey's tailor...touches Chandler's bits and Joey says:
"- come on Ross tell him that's how they do pants!"
ROSS:-"yes...yes it is...IN PRISON!!!!"

that was really funny :lol:

Yes, I can't understand that so many say that Ross is their less favorite character, either. Surely Joey and Chandler are funnier but Ross is a person who is often misunderstood (nearly always by Rachel or Monica) and who wants to make something good but earns bad things for that. He has not much luck. And it's funny when he does not know what to say and then speaks completely bullshit (but Joey often does that, too).

@samurai_cable: I remember that song, it was one of the funnier ones. I laughed there, too. Her song in the place where little children are (forgot the English word at the moment) was also very funny.

Do you know what the "Friends" are doing today? I heard that Matt Le Blanc has a new sitcom which is in America in TV at the moment but nothing about the other ones. I guess Jenifer Aniston and Courtney Cox Arquette are making movies at the moment, aren't they? But what about Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow?
Did David, Matt and Lisa make any good movies in the past? I have never seen any film with them. I know one with Matthew and several with Jenifer (Bruce Almighty, for example

) and Courtney Cox (Scream 2 and 3) but no ones with the others. The one with Matthew Perry I only saw in the TV program when it was too late, so unfortunately I didn't see it.

by **thecablegal** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 11:58 pm

Matthew Perry has a few films:

The Whole Nine Yards (Very Good)
Three To Tango (Also Good)
Serving Sara (Haven't seen)
Fools Rush In (Haven't seen)
The Whole Ten Yards (Haven't seen)

Don't know about the others. I know Matthew is currently working on a film with his Dad. And he's recently won a Celebrity Poker Showdown game!

by **thecablegal** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 12:07 am

Yes, Jen was in Bruce Almighty, and Courtnry Cox Arquette was in Ace 1!

Check http://www.imdb.com for all details on all the Friends actors!

Oh, and I loved that Phoebe song! But Matthew Perry will always be my fav, my bedroom is covered in pics of him!

by **-->Blunt<--** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 1:56 pm

Yeah, right, she was in Ace Ventura. Forgot that at the moment. Thank you, this internetside is very nice.

by **Edward Nygma** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 2:30 pm

Matt Le Blanc was in Lost in space, in the Charlie's Angels films and in a film with a monkey called Ed.

Lisa Kudrow was in Analyse This and Wonderland

David Schwimmer was in a few films but I forgot their name, he was also in the war series Band of Brothers.

by **thecablegal** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 5:33 pm

David Schwimmer likes to direct these days I believe, and he directed some of the Friends episodes.

I have also heard that Matthew Perry is having a go at directing.

Will have to check out those films with Matt Le Blanc in!

by **-->Blunt<--** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 7:16 pm

Is Matt's role big in Charlie's Angels? If it is so I think I will watch these Movies. Until today I didn't think that they are interesting but if Matt Le Blanc has a mainrole there I change this opinion.
I think I have seen Lost in Space. That is the movie where a family is alone and under attack in space, right? When I saw it I didn't know friends but I remember that this movie was really bad.

Another question: In some series of Friends you see Phoebe's twinsister. Does Lisa Kudrow really have a twinsister or was that a person with a mask or something like that?

by **thecablegal** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 8:57 pm

Phoebe's twin is played my Lisa Kudrow also, but in real life, Lisa Kudrow actually has a twin sister...

by **samurai_cable** » Sun Oct 17, 2004 2:51 am

Wow, Lisa Kudrow has a twin sister? That is soo cool. I only know that she is highly intellegent; her father's a doctor or something. And she could have been one as well; she wanted to make some graphs and diagrams of her baby son's feeding habits and stuff. I guess she likes to perform more though.

Yeah, the prison joke was very funny

the time when Ross' teeth were glowing in the dark was also very funny. I guess he's alright

All friends are kewl!

I've also seen "Serving Sara", which is alright, it has some funny bits and Perry looks good in that one as well :wink:

re:-->Blunt<--: Matt's role in Charlie's Angels 2 isn't too big, he appears at the start somewhere as Alex's (Lucy Liu) boyfriend and he was very funny when he met Alex's father (John Cleese, i think...). But you should see it! I enjoyed it very much, the first one is better though. And Matt is also in the first one.
