grungy-gonads 54 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Friends coming back. Deary dear. http://www.hollywood.com/news/detail/id/3477372 Friends’ Returns to TV By WENN|Sunday, January 22, 2006 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, 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. Scriptwriters have already started penning lines for the four double episodes, which are due to air next year. Aniston, who has filmed a string of movies since the final Friends episode, was the last to agree to the new deal. An NBC insider says, "She's the one who had been holding out. But she's now agreed to reprise Rachel (Green). "Bringing them back is a dream come true. Ratings will go through the roof." Network bosses have also hinted at a second spin-off of the hit comedy, following the disappointing performance of Matt LeBlanc's show Joey. The new program will see the three male stars--Perry, Schwimmer and LeBlanc--pilot a series called It's A Guy Thing. An NBC spokesperson confirms, "Negotiations on future projects are going on all the time." Link to post Share on other sites

Kraut_in_HongKong 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 That show seriously passed its expiry date. Certainly another no-see for me. I wonder if their flat is even wheelchair friendly? Link to post Share on other sites

mattlucas 0 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Friends has got to be the lowest of all the comedies. Still makes me laugh here and there but it doesn't make me think at all. Good for days when I'm really hungover or really sleepy. Bring back Seinfeld I wonder how long they had to spend in prison Link to post Share on other sites

grungy-gonads 54 Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 It's on Wowow now. I never really liked the Joey character anyway, but this was just extremely rubbish. I'm into 24 at the mo, exciting stuff and well made. Link to post Share on other sites
