From the very first episode to (pains me to say) the last episode, comes 6 of the best,closest,dearest friends on the planet. Through the hardest times and funniest times of there lives, they know that they will be friends to the very end, and will always be there for one another....... ( which is why the theme song is "I'll be there for you")

The A-list stars (the hottest of them all) are
