'Friends' sign for another final season


Friends is turning into the series that just won't die. Personally, I think they should have wrapped it up a long time ago, rather than have us suffer through them making babies, and marrying each other.

Don't get me wrong, when the series first aired, I loved it. I still like it a lot, but it certainly isn't as fresh as it used to be. With some of the friends approaching 40, I think it is long past the time to say goodbye.

What a lot of people don't remember is that Ellen Degeneres' show originally aired as "These Friends of Mine" in 1993. (a year before 'Friends' debuted in '94) It was all about her and her friends that lived across the hall, and was a pretty damned good sitcom. Then some genius network guy decided to scrap the friends and just focus on Ellen and her lesbian ways. He's probably flipping burgers some where.

I remember Ellen's show from the beginning as well. Once they scrapped Ari and Holly, the show went downhill.

I've never seen an episode of Friends. I would rather have a gunshot wound with no morphine.

Actually, that was still the "Ellen" show, when she worked at that book store. Before that, it was called "These Friends of mine" and it had a few friends that lived across the hall. They were completely different (and funnier) friends than worked with her in that store.

"Friends" has been on the air roughly nine years too long...Brent, I'll supply the ammo if you bring the gun.

I think "Friends" is one of the best shows on TV. However, it was a much better show when it started out. I still can't stop watching it though. I would have to say that I am glad they are wrapping it up but sad at the same time.

I think you all suck ass. Friends rules. You all don't know what you're talking about. I think you all should be shot, being that you hate Friends so much and all. I will continue to watch Friends, support it, and love it. So peace.
