Summary: Here's to Ross, Rache, Monica, Joey, Chandler, and Phobe.
Review: No other show has touched and made people laugh then Friends.This show has a point, unlike that crap called Seinfeld or reality TV, it was about friends who stayed together. And this is great having it on DVD 5 days later because my Tv went out during the show. But I did see Ross and Rachel together forever! Well, I know I'll be at Wal-mart buying the first copy. Oh, walmart charges 7.97 for it! Well on 5/11/04 only!
Hope you love it. And thanks for the memories, Jen, David, Lisa, Courtney, Matt, and Matthew!

Summary: I miss my "Friends"...
Review: Who cares if the people behind Friends are trying to capitilaze on the finale hoopla by getting this DVD out so quickly? You'd do it too. And forget about it if you think they're all money-grubbers. Everybody is every now and then. Let's just get on with the show.Friends has been the greatest show on television for the past ten years. Sure it had its rough spots and was a little corny at times, but when all was said and done we still loved Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Joey and Phoebe as if they were our ACTUAL friends. I know I did. I was so sad to see the show come to an end, but it will forever live in my heart - and on DVD!

Summary: An Honest Review of Friends and this DVD
Review: I think there are two different reviews here, one for the show and one for this DVD. As far as the DVD is concerned, it is "good". It isn't great, but it is good. The DVD does have: 1. A nice extended version. The DVD does not have: 1. Interviews with each cast member.
2. Interviews with the writers.
3. Behind the Scenes footage.
4. Outtakes and Bloopers.
5. Alternate endings. I think that if the DVD had these things then I would have given it a perfect 5-Star rating. As far as the show is concerned, the ending is "okay". It is rushed. It is only 1 hour, instead of the expected (and deserved) two hours. You will not see Rachel and Ross get married, even though we deserved to see it after following the show for 10 years. There are a number of pieces missing from the ending. You literally get the sense that they put a major rush job on the ending just to get it out the door and over with. It is very sad to see the show end, but even sadder to not feel like you received the ending you deserved after 10 long years of faithful watching. I do think that, at the ever least, Rachel and Ross should have gotten married or even just a proposal in the finale but it didn't happen. So, yes, you will want to buy the DVD if you are a fan of Friends, a collector, or just want to see what you missed. It is worth having. But you may be sad and disappointed if you expected a packed DVD with a lot of features and the ending you really wanted to see.

Summary: Predictable, but it's a SITCOM...
Review: I'm an avid Friends fan...which means I'm one of the ones who cried when it ended. I have to say, though I was a little disappointed with the last two seasons (they just didn't seem as good as the first 8); the finale was definitely terrific, and I think that it is well worth the money to buy it. It was slightly predictable, but it's a sitcom, not a drama...it's meant to be like that. The people who don't like Friends...that's their prerogative...they don't need to shout out to the whole world how horrible they think the finale was, though. If you don't like it, why care? To the point of my review, I strongly recommend everyone at least view the finale...it's like the Seinfeld finale...you watched it, even though you weren't a huge fan.

Summary: Very disappointing
Review: This was one of the worst series finales I have ever seen. If you're into all of the sappy Ross/Rachel stuff, and watched Friends for the romance instead of the laughs, this finale is right up your ally. It was filled with melodramatic Ross/Rachel segments, and a few tidbits of Monica and Chandler, and didn't focus at all on the other characters. Where was the humor and all of the well-written jokes that made Friends so funny? They weren't in this episode. While I realize a finale is supposed to tie up loose ends and finish off the series, they had plenty of time to include some comedy in the hourlong episode. As a finale, this episode was VERY bland, and not worth the $11 for a DVD that features only the episodes, and no special feautres. They could at least include the Dateline special or the pre-show interview with the cast.

Summary: What a Disappointment - What Were the Writers Thinking?
Review: I expected something creative for the finale to this show. Instead, the situations were unbelievable, the dialogue was wooden, the pace was ponderous, and I couldn't wait for it to be over. My husband fell asleep less than half-way through it. What a sorry end to the series!

Summary: If there's a buck to be made ...
Review: If there's a buck to be made, they're going to take it straight from your pocket. God forbid you have time to ask your neighbors if they taped it, because you can buy it on DVD less than a week later. All and all the show was tepid, although much better than Seinfeld, which has to be my least favorite show of all time. I mean seriously, if you saw the first episode, you knew what was going to happen in the last. Ross is a dork and Rachel's just not that attactive. I mean I wouldn't kick her out of my bed, but I wouldn't invite her into my bed either. So it takes a week to get one episode of Friends and I've been waiting like 10 years for any episodes of Cop Rock. There's no justice in this world.

Summary: Mostly a let-down
Review: My roommate and I love Friends, own all of them, quote them constantly, are generally huge dorks about the whole thing. However, the old episodes are definitely the best, and this last season has been something of a let-down, especially the series finale. The first half--the clips show--was funny and sweet, but the episode itself was flat and contrived. Definitely not the dramatic, funny, bittersweet ending that Friends deserved.

Summary: FRIENDS: On for 10 years for a Reason.
Review: You know what. FRIENDS is funny. Its been a great show, and well, though many said it was kind of time for the show to end...its still sad to see it end. Its been on for 10 years for a reason. For those who decided not to watch it, for the past 10 years, then decide, hey, what the h*ll, I'll just see what the fuss is about ,and then decide to bash it...(closed fist clap together, ala ROSS) For those who have gone against whats 'popular' for the sake of being 'like that' may miss out. 'May' miss out, because you know what, its gonna be on TV til TV goes out of style. About the FINALE:
Though the finale was kind of corny and predictable...who cares? For what its worth, it was a positive way to say 'so long.' For me, I was able to spend a night with Friends to watch 'Friends' so for that I give it a great rating. So for the fellow Friends fans and A+ raters, hooray. For the bashers...well...you can still watch it and then maybe laugh at the countless jokes/slap stick and fun we all enjoyed while it was on nbc. Then I'd love to take back the 'closed fist clap together' ala ROSS. Peace.
