I'll Be There For You (And Netflix will be too)

You know those shows that have been popular for years and years, and they are the type of shows that a majority of your generation watch. You originally are against the entire concept of watching the said television show, but then one of your best friends somehow convinces you to watch the show. This is exactly what happened to me…with one of the most popular sitcoms of the ‘90s/early 2000’s show, Friends. With some time I had this summer, it took me about a month to finish all ten seasons of this crazy television show. I remember when I started watching the show, my mom directly said to me,
 “Watch how the styles change, the hair, the clothes, everything.”  From 1994 to 2004, so much had changed.
One of my favorite parts of watching Friends was observing the character development between Monica, Chandler, Rachel, Ross, Phoebe, and Joey. **Spoiler Alert** --- especially when the relationships between Rachel and Ross and Monica and Chandler blossom. I usually don’t become too emotional over television shows, but with Friends, I sobbed uncontrollably during the monumental moments during the series. (If you’ve watched the show, you know exactly what I’m talking about).
Although I tend to rush through most television series’ I watch, I wanted to watch all of Friends as quickly as I could because I was so anxious and nervous to see how the story ends (or even begins if you want to put it that way).
If you want to invest in a wonderful television series that will make you laugh, cry, smile, and feel almost any emotion you can think of, I highly suggest that you watch Friends. It’s filled with timeless characters, and even if you don’t have Netflix so you can stream it on your laptop/iPad, there are always re-runs of the show that constantly play on different TV Networks (ABC Family, The CW, etc.)
Netflix having the ability to stream television shows, and have a majority of shows at my fingertips, is the most wonderful thing and I’m so #blessed to live in a generation that allows this capability 24/7.
That’s all for now, but stay tuned!


Meanwhile, I’ll be listening to “With or Without You” by U2 thinking of Rachel and Ross. J

  1. I was the same way with a couple of series where I would refuse to watch it until I got tired of my friends talking about it. My freshman year I watched Gossip Girls within a month and when it ended it didn't really end so I got angry, lol!
    Friends is a different story. I have always loved it and whenever it is on tv I stop on that channel and watch it until it goes off. Two Christmases ago I got all 10 season on DVD and of course Netflix puts them up right after I got them. I have yet to watch them all in order, but I know it is a must. I know the story line and how it ends and I have probably seen every episode, but to be able to see the characters evolve and grow will be awesome! Great recommendation!!
