Friends Season Finale. - VGF

Anyone else get to see it? Very good ending to very good show. Almost a tearjerker. My Sister laughed at me when I didn't cry.

Jonathan Resop · 05-06-2004, 10:17 PM

Friends sucks.-jay

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 05-06-2004, 10:27 PM

Yeah, I watched it. It was really sad, seeing all their lives change. I like how Joey got a new chick and a duck

[sage] · 05-07-2004, 12:07 AM

Yea it sucks its over.

I was surprised rachel didn't go. I thought ross would go with her. Since they're all still here, it doesn't really seem like its done.

Super Shy Guy · 05-07-2004, 03:33 PM

I want to throw a party to celebrate the death of Friends.

I didn't actually see it, but I can tell you what happens; everyone gets what they wants. Boring and predictable.

They should'be all died in a hilarious trainwreck when a banana peel is left on the tracks, causing the train to de-rail and plummet into the nearby abyss filled with acid.

horsegirl · 05-07-2004, 05:58 PM

I saw it, it was pretty ok. I like how all of them had a key to the apartment, even Ross when he said that he is the only one that hadn't lived there.

**Booyakasha** · 05-07-2004, 07:24 PM

Didn't watch it. I don't care much about sitcoms.

For my money, the only sitcom that had a proper ending was 'The Young Ones'. The main characters all die when the bus they're riding on falls off a cliff and explodes. Brilliant.

skemper · 05-07-2004, 07:27 PM

^Now that's an ending!

Tonberry2k · 05-08-2004, 05:26 AM

Glad it's over, don't care.

Parrakarry · 05-08-2004, 02:43 PM

Don't know. Don't care.

GORE-ILLA · 05-08-2004, 05:15 PM

Eh, it had its share of funny moments, but it could have been so much better.

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 05-08-2004, 06:15 PM

Btw, it was Series Finale, not Season Finale. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

UserGoogol · 05-08-2004, 10:17 PM

It was both, but yes, he should have said "series finale." Or "final episode."

Rattan · 05-09-2004, 12:13 AM

Too bad Matt LeBlanc gets his own spin-off.

So you know he'll be visited by his friends....bah. It never ends! They need to bring back Seinfeld.

Phenom · 05-09-2004, 12:43 AM

It was a terrible series finale. It wasn't funny at all, and the ending was too predictable. The writers were probably too afraid to end the series on a sad note, so they chickened out on something as "terrible" as Rachel leaving Ross "The Whiner" Gellar and made everything just oh-so-perfect. Some people cried, I chuckled at how lame it was. Picture perfect endings are garbage. I wanted to see Joey go on a rampage and mow down the five unworthy friends with a Tommy Gun...but no, they had to have everything so perfect. Bah! Bah I say!

And if anyone takes this seriously, they need to get their head checked. The ending was very disappointing though.

***CaptHayfever*** · 05-09-2004, 01:21 AM

I didn't watch.
But I'm told it was a lot like WILAY's "The Second Season Finale", which I did watch.
And SNL's two Friends-based skits tonight were awesome. [img]smile.gif[/img]

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

El Barto · 05-18-2004, 07:30 PM

I liked that show. It was very inane, yes, but it did a good job of avoiding the stale 'complex web of lies' plot that plagues Frasier and yes, even Seinfeld.

Controller-Freak · 05-20-2004, 12:57 AM

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.

***CaptHayfever*** · 05-20-2004, 11:26 AM

I'm gonna say it was Wil Calhoun.

Now, NewsRadio knew how to handle death. "Bill Moves On" was not only touching and tasteful, but also hilarious, and that one had a REAL death attatched to it.
"Copy Machine" was good, too.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Dolos Ekans · 05-21-2004, 11:28 AM

And so the world has been put back into order. As the demon known as Friends is defeated Da Mage and company journey on cautiously awaiting the next terrible show to cross their path.
