F.R.I.E.N.D.S - keeping up with the definition

Hey readers, my apologies for being inactive, you missed me right? right? Anyway, the reason for me being inactive are the dreaded exams and a vacation to hills. Anyway, I am back into action and I hope to give you some decent reviews. This review is going to be about one of the most sensational shows ever aired in the nineties! F.R.I.E.N.D.S

Friends is a daily soap which was first aired in September 22, 1994. The fact that it went on for ten whole years proves that it was one of the most sensational show of all time.
This show is about six best friends, three women and three men, namely Joey Tribbiani, Ross Geller, Chandler Muriel Bing, Pheobe Buffay, Monica Geller, and Rachel Green. They live in the same apartment complex in New York. Honestly, their friendship will make super glue blush. They stick by each other no matter what. The best thing, they had no romance between them which never created an awkward situation for the rest of them. This show tells the public about the ideal friendship. They all pulled each others legs at every opportunity they got but never left the others back, never allowing the faith and trust to simmer down.

Now a little about the characters :
Joey, this one was a total womanizer. He practically reeled women in with his amazingly good looks and personality. He has a passion for acting and tries his best to pursue it. Even though he has been selected in numerous acting shows, eventually he was removed for reason or another. He lives in an apartment owned by his best friend, Chandler. Even though those six are close, the both are closer. Not in that way of course, they are best buds. Period. Chandler also pays for every expense of Joey along with his own, from food to acting classes, everything. Take it as an example of their friendship.

Now how can the two buds be separated right?
Chandler is an exceptionally sarcastic man, not because he wants to be liked but because he has a tragic history. His parents were separated when he was young and he started using sarcasm as a defense mechanism, so he replies with a sarcastic comment (let's be kind) ninety percent of the time. Now this seems pretty miserable, but believe me he is not the depressing type. He enjoys his life with Joey, does stupid shit and live life. Not at all miserable.

Now coming to the women, Pheobe is like the feminine version of Chandler, only that she does not have a bud like Joey. Although she has a downright miserable history with her parents she manages to get through that heartbreaking faith and move on. Her hobbies are singing and playing. Even though she plays guitar just above average she compensates with second rate lyrics of the song. She sings pretty well but likes to make an unintentional fool of herself with sarcastic remarks. The best part, she does not mind. She is totally the weird person who acts all different on public places and is pretty stupid at first talk, but she may be the greatest person to hangout with when you get to know her.

Even though it was so difficult to pick out only three characters to write about, but they are pretty exceptional in their own light. This show is one the most longest running shows in T.V. history and, of course, the most adaptable. This show will delicately thrown light on true friendship all mixed with funny and romance romance (yes, there is a little). If you like the review, you will fall for the show. It may be great for binge watching for its long list of episodes and ten seasons. Needless to say, a must watch.
