F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

 

Today I want to talk about the great TV show of the 90's. I started watching this show after it went off the air in the US. I used to watch it in India but then I watched the entire series like a million times after I came to the US. I remember my roommate and I used to watch this show and laugh so hard that my other roommate used to get irritated.

I love this show! My friends used to say I don't know any other great shows that are better than this. But actually I tried watching other popular shows but nothing even compares to Friends. I mean I also watched all the seasons of How I met Your Mother and some seasons of Big Bang Theory and Scrubs, but C'mon they are not as good as Friends. I mean I love Barney Stinson and Sheldon Cooper, but they are like the only people good on the show. On Friends, it is so hard to pick just one. They are all super awesome. Not just the actors, but the creators of this show have used more brain and imagination than any other show. Each character has a consistent and a unique personality.

Another reason for my love for Friends is the connection I feel with the show. I think I used to watch this show when I got really homesick during the initial days in the US. And this show helped a lot. Even today, I can watch this show and get rid of all the stress from work.

And last but not the least, this show has helped me a lot to improve my English, American English I should say. The English we speak in India is so different than American English. So I learned that and at the same time I had fun learning it.

I remember everything about this show and if there was a quiz about this show, I would definitely win it. I remember every thing about this show just the way people remember everything about Sholay in India! Although, when I first started watching it in India, I was so shocked with the story of the show. I mean the stuff that happens on the show never happens in real life in India. At least, at that time. I mean Rachel is having Ross' baby and they don't get married. Rachel, instead, falls in love with Joey! All very weird, but not after I came here and saw the lifestyle of people in the US. In fact, now I am cool with almost everything. Nothing gives me a shock anymore.

To sum up, this show has taught me a lot about America and this show has made my days easier. I love everyone on the show. My favorite moments from each character are, let's see;

Ross: When Ross and Chandler go on a vacation in Vermont and Ross eats lots of Maple Candies on their way.

Monica: I am finedd.. I am finedd.. It's just a very hard word !

Joey: Moo point!

Phoebe: See, that was a real problem ! Yours is just a bunch of high school crap that nobody really gives a damn about !

Rachel: Yea..that would have been a much simpler problem ! (After lying to Joey about her work problem)

Chandler: When he dresses up as a pink bunny on Halloween! The best dialogue of the entire show : "You'd think that would embarrass me, but you see, I'm maxed out. !!" (The story of my life)
