My dad told me that the cast of Friends was going to reprise their roles and make another four, hour long episodes. It was immediately clear how ridiculous this was, considering I had heard nothing about this despite reading volumes of entertainment news that could fill a library, and also that I can’t believe Jennifer Aniston would play Rachel again after spending like three years trying to kill of that killer of a type-cast.However. It seems that this may actually be true. Although 90% of the shit you read on the internet is complete crap, its actually acknowledged on the Fox website.

“Seminal sitcom Friends is returning to television after each of its six stars agreed multi-million dollar deals to star in four one-hour specials.

In a secret meeting before Christmas (2005), Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and Matthew Perry reportedly agreed a $5 million apiece deal with NBC bosses in Los Angeles.”

5 MILLION DOLLARS! No wonder she doesnt give a flying fuck about type-cast! Jesus. Anyway, in case you’ve forgotten about Friends or are one of those elitists who says they hate Friends except watch it ‘cos its on’, here is a reminder of the characters.

Pheobe is far and away the most irritating person on television. And that’s even when you factor in the fact that the series featured the character ‘Janice’ whose laughter could kill a baby while still in the womb.It’s also beyond me how she massages like a person every other month but still manages to live in a comfy loft style appartment the likes of which takes the combined steady incomes of Monica and Rachel.
Joey is a cool character but he’s nowhere near as funny as either Ross or Chandler. He scores chicks and likes food - mainly sandwiches. That’s pretty much all he does. Oh and he’s really really stupid. Bravo. He scores points for being the only remotely good looking guy on the entire series, but then goes on to lose all credability he could have ever possibly amassed by being in both Charlies Angels films.
Rachel cannot be judged alongside the rest of the cast, nor can she be judged alongside other mortals. She was married to Brad Pitt, a man who could marry anyone he fucking pleases. Her character isn’t really funny, I dont really think I can respect her as a comedian or a human being, since she made a living making out with David Schwimmer for like ten years. She is now going out with Vince Vaughn who is MONEY.
Monica is be far the hottest person on the show. Except maybe Bonnie Summerville who dates Ross at some point in the last season I think (character called Mona). By default she is probably out of her mind fucking crazy considering that she married David Arquette. Run that through your mind a just a little bit more. Yeah thats right, she’s sleeping with the guy that ran out into the WWF arena in sparkly silver and gold tassles. Voluntarily.

Ross‘ gelled hair is probably the only man made thing along with the Great Wall of China that can be seen from space. His head is beyond huge. As is his mouth. I’m pretty sure he has accidentally swallowed children whole while sucking beverages from a straw. He also looks kind of like a dog. Alright, a lot like a dog, one with a really long face. But his delivery is more often than not spot on and you have to respect that. He likes dinosaurs and that’s geeky, get it? It’s funny. Seriously, its really really funny.
Saying Chandler is a one-trick pony is like saying Elton John is a fag. But there is no doubt in my mind that he is why Friends is what it is. His delivery is constantly perfect. Even if he looks like a woman in season three or four when he is thin enough to slice kebab meat. He’s by far the funniest guy on TV.
