Friends – After 9 Years

Friends101

It took me 9 years to watch the last season of Friends, I was avoiding it for a while, but then I just decided to watch Season 10 from the beginning. I didn’t see the last half of it. So it was fun watching the show again, feels like everything is fresh again, then I realized that they had a CRT TV in the living room and still used cordless phones in the apartment. The old gang doesn’t really change, with Joey, Chandler, Phoebe, Ross, Rachel, and Monica. Back then I only knew them as that, didn’t even want to know their real names. I remember when people used to buy the video tapes in christmas and summer to watch show in Kuwait, nothing was online then as much as now, we would wait months to see the show and I remember I was addicted thanks to my cousin. And then I got to watch it every Thursday on NBC at home in my apartment in the states, it felt like they were a part of our lives, I don’t think I got as attached to a show or familiar with a show as much as this. My apartment furniture was from Pottery Barn because of them, it has a somewhat same feel as to the friends apartment since I wanted to be comfortable. There is a lot I had tied to this show, and it was one of the reasons that I was looking forward moving to the states, that you would have a life like that, going out on the town, finding that crazy Chinese place you love, and these guys make you love it. So the ending was tough to watch so I didn’t want it, for 9 years, and I finally did and I have to say I’m happy I did. I do wish the show never ended thats for sure, I loved it and everyone on it. I pretty much look for any show with Joey or Chandler on it, because to me these guys will always be great.
