Friends Like These Review ofFriends - Series 1-10 - Complete (Box Set)by

Advantages: Great comedy Disadvantages: A distinct lack of extra's
...marry.
The extras
The writing of Friends for the most part is so strong that it affords itself many extra's who dont just become one off supporting roles, but recurring guest characters. The most obvious ones are Gunther, Central Perk manager who lusts after Rachel, and the incredibly hilarious Janice, the nerve-grating ex-lover of Chandler. Every couple of years, her character is brought back for another hilarious coincidental meeting that ...

Advantages: Good price, excellent programme, hilarious!! Disadvantages: Maybe only buy if you're a hard core Friends fan
...so go gentle!!!
I've been watching Friends pretty much since it first came out in 1994. I remember my mum sat me down with me on the settee on Friday night and said to me 'watch this, I think you'll like it'. And I've loved it ever since, it's always been my favourite programme. I bought all the videos when they first came out, then all the individual DVDs and finally this 10 series box set (I know, I'm a bit mental!) so I'm going to tell you about ...

Advantages: The whole show Disadvantages: limtied special features
...other people have found them! Friends won a golden globe, another 55 awards and 162 nominations! This show was always descent to do well here in England, as the show is American because we love humour.
This box set is completely for everyone, after buying the set I had about 10 people requesting my video tapes! The show is for people who love to sit down and just forget about everything and laugh! The set has 20 discs altogether, which I will ...

Advantages: You can own them all Disadvantages: costly
My sister has just brought me this from the states.
While this was on T.V, I tried to tune into every episode, only missing one or two now and then. I really wanted to own them all, but never got round to it, or couldn't afford it.
Friends, the much loved series of a group of 6 buddies, Rachel, Joey, Phoebe, Chandler, and brother and sister Monica and Ross, captured audiences for just over a decade, with their life and love antics.
The series ...

Advantages: great fun... Disadvantages: nothing.. no way
...was also a die hard Friends fan, cried when we finished watching the last episode.
Friends had always made me laugh..... whenever i was sad, an episode of friends always cheered me up. Every episode was filled with numerous gags and jokes and every story was a whole new adventure.....
When the DVD box set of the whole 10 episodes became available, i stared saving up my pocket money and the minute i had the money, i went and bought it. Ever since ...

Advantages: Hilliarious comedy, outstanding acting, great storylines. Disadvantages: Prehaps a bit expensive?
I've watched Friends regliously since it started back in 1994, and when it finished in 2004, I wondered what I would do with my Thursday evenings from then on! Thankfully I found the answer in the form of this fantastic box set. It allows me to have my regular dose of Friends aswell as keeping the DVDs clean and tidy at the same time.
Firstly I'll explain what Friends actually is.. Its an American sit-com set in New York and follows the lifes of ...

Advantages: Great fun for all the family, almost Disadvantages: Could have made more of the same
I never really watched friends when it first came out in '94 as after watching the pilot episode I was not impressed at all. But years later I am the owner of the entire 10 series and I watch them regularly.
There are a few things that are questionable, like why did the writers change Joey Tribiannies character from a two-bit actor into a bit of a stupid two-bit actor? In the pilot episode he came across as a bit of a charmer with a brain, then in ...

I have rated this exellent because i love friends. I watch it every! The characters make me laugh so much. If you are also a great fan, then you will love these DVDs too. You can probably get them more cheaper than the prices that people have offered on here. Like on Ebay.

Advantages: All ten seasons in one box, all a friends fan needs Disadvantages: Comes on double sided disks and picture quality isn't great in the first season
...one episode of friends. Friends saw the characters Rachel, Joey, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe and Ross become household names across the globe and everyone's best friends. There was never a sitcom like it before and there never will be again, Friends is simply unbeatable. Sorry if my love for the show is coming through in the review slightly, I'd hate to think I'd been biased towards it in anyway.
Well due to my love for the series I do recognize ...

Advantages: Funny, Great Show, Heart Warming Disadvantages: They Stopped at Series 10!
Friends is a fantastic TV Series. From Series 1-10 you are always brought back for more every time. The main storyline revolved around Ross and Rachel played by David Schwimmer and Jennifer Aniston.
Throughout the show they are constantly thrown together and torn apart. You are always left wanting them to get together.
The show has a range of different characters which is why it is so popular. My favourite being Chandler (Matthew Perry) who ...

Advantages: Every episode! Disadvantages: None!
Friends is a classic!
I don't know many people who don't enjoy watching who don't enjoy watching Friends. If anyone says they don't enjoy Friends then the chances are they haven't watched it, which is difficult considering how much it is on the TV and how well known it is.
Whether you have watched it or not, or whether you enjoy it or not, one thing is for sure, you will know exactly what Friends is and could probably name all the characters. ...

How will the Friends series end?
All these questions can be answered with this amazing boxset.
I recieved this box set for christmas last year, and continually watch it over and over again.
I recommend it to anyone who enjoys Friends as it offer's many exclusive extras such as 'Friends around the world' which shows the people who do the voice of the Japanese Rachel etc. and The individuals who do the sounds (e.g. running heel's) ...

Advantages: good laugh, somthing to kill the day watching from in my bed. Disadvantages: having 30 discs to lookafter..
I'm a fan of Friends and though 100 pounds is a lot sum of money but I did not hesitate when the necessary amount was finally available.
Well, despite of that I would like to mention several things:
the dvd's are double layer troubled me much more than I had expected
I bought the set just one month ago and the price went down by 30 pounds.
I was expecting bonuses on each disc, but the same bonuses were on all the discs. Friends Only the last disc ...
