I'll just repeat what a few other have said, don't care about the show, glad it's over.

Complex webs of lies are funny, cheesy Friends-esque - or because this is actually Friends, Friends-drama is not.

I still don't get it, how can someone make a sitcom dramatic? Isn't it called situation comedy for a reason? If I want situation drama (sitdram), I'll go watch Dawson's creek or something.
In Seinfeld George's fiancee dies licking the wedding invitation envelopes. George happy, his friends happy, the audience laughing. If in Friends one of the characters had died, millions of people (morons, but that's the average Friends viewer) would burst into tears, because the writers would have to make it appear so sad and dramatic. If making stupid people cry is those writers' idea of success, they should write episodes for The O.C.

Whoa, must've slipped into rant mode without noticing.
