The exploits of sensitive paleontologist Ross Geller (David Schwimmer), his obsessive-compulsive sister Monica Geller (Courteney Cox); Monica's roommate Rachel Green (Jennifer Aniston), a spoiled rich girl trying to live on her own; earthy aromatherapist/masseuse Phoebe Buffay (Lisa Kudrow); and Monica's neighbors across the hall-- sarcastic Chandler Bing (Matthew Perry) and his dim-bulb roommate Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc) became a nationwide obsession, a pop-culture icon (remember 'The Rachel' haircut?) and a top Nielsen hit for its entire run. See the 10 or more seasons club . The first two seasons were mostly centered on the on-off saga of Ross and Rachel, and while their relationship remained a strong presence through romantic rivals and even a baby, View clips and vote for your favorite Friends moment. the other characters eventually moved from sideshow players into a shared comedic lead. But Friends was not without its heart. Most of the cast had dysfunctional relationships with their parents and went through loss, divorce, marriage, parenthood, and love triangles. The emotional pregnancies of Rachel (by Ross) and Phoebe (surrogate to her half-brother's triplets) won the actresses Emmy Awards, and Joey's tender feelings for Rachel in Season 8 won LeBlanc, the most improved actor in the series, a nomination. Most sitcoms run out of ideas by the fifth season, but Friends gave itself a refreshing jolt the minute Monica and Chandler wound up in bed together. Their budding romance was not only the one of the funniest arcs of the series, but one of the most sentimental, as they planned a wedding, struggled to have a child and eventually turned to adoption. By seasons seven and on, the characters had each 'grown up' from young singletons to thirtysomethings finding permanence in their careers and love lives but never losing the laughs. Just friends? See our guide to who kissed whom on Friends. Friends featured a parade of celebrity guests, but unlike Will & Grace, it actually utilized most of the stars as more than cameos: The sextet's parents were all brilliantly cast, particularly Kathleen Turner as Chandler's drag-queen father and Teri Garr as Phoebe's dizzy mom. Everyone from George Clooney to Sean Penn to Julia Roberts to Bruce Willis has appeared on the sitcom, and Tom Selleck certainly enjoyed a career resuscitation after his recurring role as Monica's older man. But no star power ever penetrated the bond between the six stars, and their unmatchable chemistry worked for 10 seasons. Even if the show is on reruns daily, this boxed set of Friends remains watchable over and over again--even if that theme song grates on your nerves. Standout episodes include The One With All The Poker (Season 1), The One With The Birth (1), The One With the Prom Video (2), The One With the Flashback (3), The One Where Monica and Richard are Just Friends (3), The One Where Ross and Rachel Take a Break (3), The One With the Embryos (4), The One With All the Wedding Dresses (4), The One With the Thanksgiving Flashbacks (5), The One Where Everybody Finds Out (5), The One Where Ross Got High (6), The One With the Videotape (8), The One With the Rumor (8), The One With the Male Nanny (9), The One With Rachel's Other Sister (9), The One With Ross' Tan (10), and The One Where the Stripper Cries (10). --Ellen A.

Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Friends comlete set Product is not what it is advertised as. DVDs are not in the holder that appears in the pictures. Rating: - Worth the money I was very pleased with my product. I had ordered this for my sister in-law as a gift. It was well priced, much lower than the store costs. It came in great condition and even had the original packaging as stated. I appreciated that the sender also included the shipping number so I could track my item. Overall, I was very pleased with the seller and the product. Rating: - Great Gift!!! Bought this for my boyfriend who loves to watch Friends. Gets him to laugh out loud everytime he watches an episode! Rating: - Yay friends Let's face it, you're not gonna buy this set unless you have seen and love Friends... so, I'm not gonna tell you how great this show is. This is a great set, it really is. If you're like me and have been watching the shows in syndication, you will find that there are a LOT of scenes that you haven't seen and/or haven't seen for a long time, as they leave out quite a bit in syndication. Also, if you decide to buy the set used, beware that most used copies come without the color booklet that explains everything... a really important part of the set. Rating: - Only 1 problem I was pleased with the condition of the "Full series of friends seasons 1-10. The only issue was that 1 of the disks was recorded over with some strange "hairspray" video. Otherwise it was just fine.
