Subject: OK, this is a poll... How SHOULD "Friends" have ended?

Written By: philbo on 05/10/04 at 4:53 am

Hmm... looks like there's almost a whole series, here ;)

With apologies to Hairspray for asking the original question "How did Friends end"

BTW, I've never watched a whole episode of "Friends"...

I would have liked to see Ross get beaten up by a mob of angry third-graders.

I picked TOW they all have a huge orgy, but wasn't that the whole series anyway? ;D

But I would rather have see Phoebe and Mike getting killed in a crash with her grandma's cab, then they would be reincarnated as French-Canadians (since she believe she is a reincarnation of a French nurse.

Rachel would go the Paris, but come back after she finds out what the French eat. Then Emma would be stuck in Paris without her mom and be adopted by Phoebe's great great great great great grandchildren.

Ross develops a way to clone dinosaurs, and gets squashed by one.

Monica and Chandler both get sex changes on a dare.

Joey become a born again Christian, then quits because he doesn't see anyone named Christian.

I wanted the last episode to be the one where Rachel and Monica finally consummate their long-simmering love affair.

Now I have to wait for the reunion episode for that.  ;D

The one where they all die horribly - a mini-nuclear disaster in the house could clean that up. Of course, I haven't thought this one out properly.

How can you all say those bad things about the cast of Friends? They are all great people. The show was awesome and some of you say they should have died in the end. For the poll, I chose they live happily ever after.

Please don't take this personally, Fan of the Monk, but it's only a poll. I can't say anything about those death threads, but mine was strictly tongue in cheek. I would never want the Friends to die, but to each his/her own. ;)

For my opinion, "Friends" was just another example of superficial, unrealistic, inane fluff (not that I expect too much more from network TV). Great people? Sorry not in my opinion, and not on this planet. Maybe people loved this show because these people don't and couldn't exist (couldn't stand them if they did).
Not too much different than BH 90120, but thankfully, it was only one half hour long...
Don't wish to offend Friends fans directly, but that show is a good example of why current TV is so bad.
I'm glad its gone.

Actually, gumbypiz, a better reason why current TV is so bad is because of the plethora of bad reality shows currently on the air. All reality TV proports is the same fighting, backbiting, and ill will that dysfunctional families produce. I watch TV to escape reality, even for 30 minutes. And I would rather has friends like "Friends" than the evil, guttersnipe jerks and jerkettes on "Survivor". :-X

I agree Tanya.

I always said that if they got a storyline going where Rachel and Monica had a fling, they'd have easily scored big ratings for another year.  ;)

Strange, that was exactly the fate I had wished for- after they had learnt to use English properly!

Or how about- the one where all the characters explode from misusing the word 'so' !
