Hi,
If your reading this, there's a good chance your a fan of the best show ever, 'FRIENDS!'

I'm a HUGE fan of the show, and i'm just wondering what your answer to these questions are.


1. Okay, do you think Friends should go on forever,(yes I know it's impossible!)

2. When M&C have a baby, I mean, they just have to, what do think they should called it. Me? I think this:

Boy: Daniel, Dan for short(watch T.O.W. Rachel gives birth, i think it's somthing like that!, and you'll understand!)
Girl: Either Jamie, or James for short(I love that name!), or Jennifer, with Jennie for short,(I think Jennifer really goes with Bing.)

3. Finally, do you think Phoebe and Joey should get together? I SO think so. They're both perfect for each other!


Anyway, please answer these questions!



~Becki

I'm sorry, Becki, but I don't agree with you at all - I don't want Friends to go on forever and I hope Phoebe and Joey won't be together. I even wish Monica and Chandler were not together. I liked the show best in the beginning, when they were all single. It was so much funnier then.

I've always been a big fan of the show, but sorry, this season has really disappointed me. A couple seasons ago if you asked me if I wanted it to go on forever I would say "yeah of course!" but now to me it doesn't seem as funny as it used to be. As for Friends relationships I hope Joey and Phoebe do NOT get together, frankly I will scream if the show ends with all 6 of them paired up with each other. I could be wrong but I think the way they have kept and keep dragging out this Rachel/Ross related stuff off and on throughout the years I think they're going to end up being a couple by the end of the show if not totally married which would leave Joey and Phoebe and if they wanted to end it with all of them paired up they easily could. Tthere is little hint of Phoebe and Joey getting together at this time though I guess but that could also be because it would be more of a surprise should it happen. But with how long they dragged on Rachel/Ross stuff it seems they do want them together. I think the show and all that has just gotten pretty stale for me. I still watch Friends though and get some laughs out of it, just not as much as I did a couple of seasons ago. That's just my opinion.

i agree dawn maiden. when friends was first out i used to make an effort to watch them all and when i wasnt going to be able to i would video it. but its beginning to loose some of its magic... i dont know if its just that the jokes are getting predictable now or what. but i no longer make an effort to watch it.. i do enjoy it when its on though.

whats your favourite episodes or friends moments then guys?

Okay, maybe I was a bit over the top to say forever, but I think Friends is a really good show, even if it is starting to drop a little! I think it'll just be hard when I think there'll be no more new Friends:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:

And k, my answers are, T.O.W. no-one's ready and T.O.W. Chandler in the Box. I also like the part in T.O.W. the Baby on the bus, when Joey and Chandler are trying to figure out which baby's Ben, and the part in T.O.W.the Holiday Armadillo where Ben and Ross are talking about Christmas, and when Joey comes in as Superman, I just think Ben's so cute, and Emma is as well!

Yes, the holiday Armadillo was funny!
My favourite is the one when they were telling stories about the worst Thanksgiving each one of them ever had, and Phoebe's was in her previous life, when she was a nurse in the Civil War.

One I can think of right now I really liked was I believe the one entitled T.O.W. Underdog Gets Away, one of the older Thanksgiving ones where all the Friends were planning stuff to do for Thanksgiving except Chandler but then they all got stuck together and had grilled cheese sandwiches 'cause the Thanksgiving dinner burnt. "I'm thankful all your thanksgivings sucked." -Chandler

I also loved the Holiday Armadillo one

Okay, new question.

Me and my mate who both love Friends were talking about what should happen at the end of Friends. I think it should end with either a marriage or a birth. What do you think?

I AM a huge friend's fan. That's about all tha ti can say though! lol I do think they should go on forever....and I've never really been much into pheobe and joey hooking up. they should find someone else who are both perfect for each other. I have no idea on the names....i'd just say the names i want to name my kids, but then i think there's a thread for that somewhere..hehe.

I love friends I remember not too long ago one of my friends was comparing people to friends caracters. He said that I was a lot like Phoebe, exept I'm not blond and I don't play a guitar and sing 'Smelly Cat', but I might do that in the future

In reponse to you questions, Becki:

1.) A much as I love the show, I don't think "Friends" should go on forever. They would only run out of good plots.

2.) I like your names. (And yes, I have seen that episode.)

3.) Yes, I think so. They are perfect for each other. I'm a lot like Phoebe too--quirky and unpredictable (not to mention I'm blonde and I sing and play guitar).

Hey "friends" *says a skinny elf-like figure entering the coffee house*

Is this also a discussion thread on the events of the 10th (or prior) season(s)? Or this should be a opnion-only, no-plot mentioned thread?

*sits down, sipping her coffee, and starting suspiciously at a three-time divorced guy talking about dinossaurs who is sitting opposite her*

I think it should be anything about "friends" since the title
"Callin All Friends Fans" didn't have a specific question or topic except Friends!

*chokes at her own excitement*

So, what are you expectations about the 10th season? I must confess I cried in the second episode (the one where ross is fine)... and mind you... I didn´t cry as a result from too much laughing...

That scene when Joey and Ross are talking really got to me and made me think that it wouldn´t be quite fair if he and Rachel don´t end up together... not fair for him anyway...

Hmm...this is probably a really weird question but does anyone wanna start a website about Friends or Just a certain friend or a couple.....well? I have some pics already and have found a few REALLY good websites. We could include scripts and bios and a section for Phoebe's songs! I also found a website that included the cords to Phoebe's songs, I'd have to find the website again...........

Well? Anybody? Please pm me.

Friends is my favourite TV programme. The episode I love most is the thanksgiving one in series 8 that guest stars Brad Pitt. The whole 'I hate Rachel Green club' is hilarious.

The 10th season doesn't come to the UK until January, but I was somewhat concerned about the end of series 9. Although I felt sorry for Joey in series 8 being in love with Rachel and her not feeling the same way...I didn't really want them to get together. I am definitely a Rachel-Ross fan. Those two are MEANT to be together. It would be wonderful if series 10 ended with them becoming an item. For good.

God, I missed that one All my friends told me it was hilarious! Anyway, I think Friends is amazing, but I agree with Dawn Maiden, the show is losing it's sparkle. I guess all the touchy-feely emotion is messing up the whole "look-at-the-funnier-side-of-things" attitude. Still, I really think it's the best sitcom on t.v. (I love Chandler's vicious sense of humour)

mmm.... have you ever found yourself making the same fgunny noises chandler does? cos I have done quite lot of that lately :dizzy:

Anyway, I wanted to ask... which is the most recent episode broadcasted in the US? I got as far as to the 10th one (where chandler gets caught) but then nothing new shoed up in the internet and Warner is not broadcasting anything here either...

It's so unfair you get to see the 10th Season already, I live in Denmark, and there's no chance the Season will be broadcast here until next year or after September (*sighs*)
I don't like the idea of Friends being at its final end, but it has lost some of its glamour and it is also time for the friends to grow up. Haven't thought of names really. And Joey and Phoebe being together -NO!!!! There has been enough coupling already, although on my WEAK days I tend to change my mind and wish that they'd all join up in happy couples:blush: I also think Phoebe has found quite a good match in Mike, though David would also have been a nice pick
Fave Character, definently Rach, though I love Phoebe as well, but somehow the first has always had a great impression on me. I don't know what I'll do if she and Ross don't hook up, they're just SO meant to be....
Fave episodes -there are so many!!!! I like the one with the invitations, and the one where they're in a house by the Beach and Rachel makes Ross' new girlfriend shave her head. Oh and I like the one where Rach gets drunk and call Ross speaking of closueres, and all of the episodes with Julie, yup the old ones are the best!!!!!!!

trucking the thread!

even though the seasons have ended I am sure we can still talk about friends! I love this serie, it always cheers my up. My favourite char is Phoebe, I love her songs. My all time favourite is definitely Smelly Cat *chuckles and sings the song* Smelly cat smelly cat, what are they feeding you?

okay, I will stop now
