    This show is my all time favourite of ... well all time.

    Priceless and genius. Is one of the few shows where I don't care what episode or season I watch. I can just close my eye's and pick a disk from my collection and watch it. The show is painfully funny and each character has a joke "style" that matches their personality perfectly.

    This television show never fails to amuse. Television of the greatest kind- this show is the height of all on-screen comedy. The epitomizer of situation comedy, this show will not be forgotten. 10 seasons of inspired genius- unforgettable.

    This show never bored me, always kept me laughing even after i went true the seasons like 8 times. Funny characters, each of them are unique and hilarious. This is my favorite show of all time nothing comes even close.
    If you haven't watched friends yet, then you need to give it a chance and watch it. It will amaze me if you don't like it. This is simply genius !

    Funny and emotional, Friends is one of the best TV shows of all time. No matter what episode, no matter what season, its always so funny and so entertaining. Each character has their own characteristics that makes them special and funny. 6 friends going through life in 10 years of laughter and genius, Friends is and unforgettable and probably the best sit-com ever.

The problem is, the show starts off pretty slowly (especially the first episode), and the final seasons were pretty bad. You could tell they were running out of ideas, rushing content, and trying to force certain situations by the end of it. But overall I loved the Friends shows, and I own the entire DVD collection.… Expand

    Never did a TV show could be so popular in the comedy field, and character development. "Friends" is a pop culture. No matter which season or episode, the show will make your living room a joyful atmosphere.

    The genius art direction of the show instantly makes you welcome to Central Perk or Monica's Living Room.

It was witty and entertaining, and I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the first time I heard Smelly Cat, or almost teared up in the last episode. The characters became your friends. Monica, Chandler, Phoebe, Rachel, Ross, and Joey are 6 of the most lovable characters in the history of comedy. And the show is the definition of a classic. Show gets an eight out of ten, because there were some really bad episodes, and it did get sloppy at some times, especially with continuity, the show payed NO attention to it whatsoever, it also had that Laugh Track Abuse-symptom, and it gets irritating.

    La verdad es que las primeras temporadas de Friends dejaban bastante que desear. Muchos de aquí votan dieces creo que refiriéndose a la serie entera, pero la primera temporada era bastante sosa. La serie se vuelve mejor a partir de la 4 creo. Nunca fue mi serie favorita ni nada pero tiene sus momentos, aunque su humor a veces es algo inocente y las tramas amorosas son aburridas.

Some subplots in episodes are forced, whereas some are exaggerated and others simply there to coincide with the main plot, but that doesn't mean the show was bad. Season 1 was when the actors and characters were at their best, as Joey was actually very mature, but he got more and more immature and dumber as the seasons went on, it seems. Chandler become more loving, caring, and funny as the seasons went on, whereas in season 1 he was just that awkward guy who cracks jokes. Ross was a lot more awkward in season 1, but got better as the seasons went on, though in some episodes he seemed unlikable. Rachel obviously matured through the seasons and later became a caring yet unprepared mother in season 8. Monica was a lot less dramatic than in later seasons, though I don't really know if this is the right thing to say. She obviously changed over the seasons, but I'm not sure I've been able to fully grasp how. Phoebe, however, was a lot smarter in the first season, then got dumber later on, like Joey. She was a lot more street smart, but in later seasons she just used her childhood poverty to gain sympathy. This wasn't the case in season 1 if I remember correctly. Every character was different in season 1 and some matured over time but some just got worse, or in Ross' case, unlikable (for some). Sometimes Ross' inability to hold a marriage was glossed over way too much, and sometimes his bad luck was simply forced. Emily's character only existed so that Ross could marry her, do something to piss her off, then she would disappear completely. Gunther really only existed as a character for comic relief, Janice later did the same thing, some minor characters were just there so we could have an episode, and others just simply didn't need to be there. Despite it's flaws, the sitcom is forever in our minds, and will always be rightfully deservedly called one of the greatest sitcoms of all time,… Expand

    Season 1 of Friends was solid but nothing special. It was hard getting use to watching a show in the 90's and the story starts off slow but it becomes really good over time.

    Friends is first sitcom tv-show I have ever watched and its great. Most jokes are funny and others are more funnier. If there is one tv-show you should watch in your life it should be friends.

    This show really appeals to all ages. Most generations can watch it and relate in some way.

I really like it in the fact that it is one of those shows where you become so invested in the characters that you find the events in the show actually effecting you emotionally. It's easy to get carried away watching this show. For the younger generation like myself, watching this show really makes you feel warm inside because we have a chronic fear that when we graduate college that our lives are over. This show sets the characters in their upper 20s and it is so refreshing to see people act the way they do and live the way they do in this show. It gives you some hope that the best days of your life still might lie ahead. Most of us assume we peak in high school or in college, but if you look at Ross, he doesn't peak until very late in the show. Overall it really appeals to millennials like me because for once it makes us want to embrace life. It makes us want to embrace the journey that we are about to be faced with. Overall, it is a wonderful show that you can pick up anywhere in the season and still greatly enjoy it.… Expand

    The first season isn´t that good but the show starts getting better. At the end it is a great show and really funny too , though the background laugh its used more then necessary. There are some smart jokes and really great characters development.

    I never thought that I would be this obsessed with a sitcom because I am always keen with the television series that I watch and most of them are hardcore, dark, and bodies of art that graced the television. But this made an exception. Truly memorable, heart-warming sitcom series. The cast really felt like a family for me.

    "Friends" nunca me entediou e sempre me fez rir. Todas as personagens são engraçadas e únicas, as histórias são criadas de uma maneira inteligente... Esta é uma das minhas séries preferidas de todos os tempos e recomendo vivamente a todos a visualização desta série com 10 temporadas que fala da importância dos amigos e do valor das experiências vividas.

    Watched every episode and season of friends apart from the reunion. I watched it later for the first time on Netflix and enjoyed most of the episodes.

    The trouble with "Friends" is that Cox is not strong enough as a comedian. [5 Sep 1994]

    A phony-to-the-core twentysomething sitcom. ... This earnestly flaky show from the creators of Dream On runs the gamut from '30s romantic farce to Seinfeldian trivia... without being believable for a moment.

    The show's saving grace is that as the weeks go by, the characters begin to grow on you. That has more to do with the actors' animation than it does with the rimshot writing.
