I watched it! I thought it was good, everything ended on a good note! :) I can't wait until the last 3 seasons come out on DVD!!
The only thing that bugged me was the fact that they had Monica's character in such FRUMPY clothes to hide the actress's REAL pregnancy since she wasn't supposed to be able to get pregnant on the show... I kept thinking "who are they kidding?". I think they should have just written her pregnancy into the script somehow.. Like maybe added it into the story line that she got pregnant AFTER they already agreed to adopt the other girl's baby. That happens to a lot of couples, they finally get pregnant AFTER they've already adopted, and often at the same time! That would have been a cool ending. I wonder if Courtney Cox-Arquette was annoyed that she looked so frumpy on the last episodes of a show she was on for 10 years?

it was good but wtf was with the 2 birds getting SO much attention meanwhile chandler has 2 newborn babies in his apartment! I definitely thought there was too little time on the babies, like, if you tuned in after they brought the babies home and showed everyone, you wouldn't even know they had them.
Also, phoebe and joey didnt have big problems or solutions, but like whatever, it was good anyways.

I have the ability to truthfully say, there are three shows I have never seen. They are:
#1. Seinfeld
#2. Friends
#3. Baywatch
I am PROUD to admit never having seen these shows, because I don't believe a person has to be physically perfect, and Seinfeld is just annoying. Just like Ray Romano.
(Everybody does NOT like Raymond!)
That's just MY opinion, I could be wrong.

Although I was never a rampant Freinds watcher, Bear and I did watch the Finale.
VERY predictable.
Although what happened to the "Joey Room" at Chandler and Monica's house?

I thought it lacked emotion. Plus it was predictable. Who thinks Joey will last more than one episode?

Seinfeld is the greatest show ever!!!!
I didn't watch the Friends finale because it is a dumb show.

yea the lack of responsability on that show with kids is rediculious.
Lets get Racheal Pregnant but later not have the kid in any of the shots because it takes away from Racheal's character. Like if your going to write in kids, write them in. Don't just add the pregnancy for a story line then once she's popped it out forget it ever exsisted. They did the same thing with Phebie. Now I know they were not her kids but they never had them on. Only twice after. Once when one rolled away and another when they were brats. Yeah great writing.
Sorry I have a big issue with Child neglect.
Other then that I thought the show was good. I was expecting Ross to show up in Paris with Emma instead of Rachael's mom but this worked too. Yea I found out a falangie is a finger from watching CSI tonight.

I always did wonder where the heck Emma was... I mean there is no way in REAL life that someone could have a kid and have as much free time as Rache's character did!

She had those babies because the mom was too old to have kids but wanted some.

Well if you never seen any of these i think your opinion lacks. I was never much for friends some shows were funny. But Sienfeld rules, i still watch the reruns daily and laugh me ass off. Its hard to pull of an intellient and witty sitcom. I think the last one before seinfeld was cheers.

Friends isn't even a real sitcom, it's a soap opera.

Friends is the best and only show on tv that i watch! Its great, it lasted 10yrs and was still great, they went out at the right point! The last episode wasn't 2 emotional no, but the one before did all that, so they ended on a gd note, i'll definatly miss it! If ur proud of never seein friends, ur missin out and i feel sorry 4 u! I never started watchin friends till a few yrs ago and love it, if i could only watch one thing on TV i would choose Friends!!!

What did you think?
Are you glad or sad that it is over?1. I did.
2. It was so bland. This last season was nothing but bland episodes. Phoebe's wedding episode was bland, then there was a clip show episode. A clip show episode on the last season?! Lazy!
BUT I loved the episode where Monica and Chandler are rehearsing for their meeting with the adoption agent and when Phoebe knocks on the door they answer with big smiles on their faces and phoebe says: "Excuse me, is this the creepy residence?" That had me laughing so hard my stomach hurt.
And this was so bland. First off what the fuck happened to Emma? Who had the baby when Rachel was going to Paris and Ross was chasing her to the airport?! Hello?
Mike was barely shown, he's a great character, that whole thing with the philangees? Are people that stupid? gimme a break.
It had its moments where it made me laugh, like when Rachel is saying her goodbyes and she's with Joey on the balcony and you don't hear them talking, and Ross says "Oh he seems to be taking it well" and when Rachel turns her back he's about to throw himself off the balcony. SO fucking hilarious.
But the ending was so dumb. What? The girl had twins? What? A boy and a girl? how convenient! Life is never that good, people.
Ross chasing Rachel to the airport? How many times has that been done on this fucking show? I counted five. Recycled plot. Then joey and Phoebe had nothing to do on the final episode as well. Come on.
Then it ends with everybody saying good bye? Nah, that sucks.
It should have ended with a final shot the way it started with the opening shot, with all of them drinking coffee at "Central Perk". That would have been clever.
Plus, Was anyone else sad to hear that the duck and chick died?
3. I liked this show and thought it was so fun, but it should have ended two seasons ago. It dragged on and on with a really bad last season. Otherwise, the show as a whole was good with a lot of flaws and crappy storylines, but it's a classic.

I agree emma wasn't in it enough, well u hardly saw her, by the way she was meant 2 b with Rachels mother! I personally thought the last series was great, tho the one before had some low points, but i luv friends and even the not so great ones are brill!
I liked the way they ended on leaving to go 2 the coffee house!
