Review of the series from me:
Friends is a great series, almost everybody knows it, and many like it very much. Those who did not see the TV series and do not understand it, I sincerely sympathize.
Friends are not just a comedy series, no. This is a real life lesson. Not for nothing is the slogan to this series "Everybody needs Friends!". And it's pretty damned accurate. Everyone, everyone, without exception, must have friends, each of us needs them. Be it friends of childhood, school friends, friends at work. Friends - it's so wonderful. As in a children's song, about the sparrow. "Everyone needs friends, even sparrows."
A distinctive feature of the series is its submission. Easy and relaxed atmosphere. Light and, at the same time, dashingly twisted plot. Dialogues - light, witty and, at the same time, restrained. And all this is complemented by a perfectly selected cast.
Yes it's a story about a chef-girl who is absolutely unhappy with her parents, about her brother paleontologist with a bunch of "funny" facts about dinosaurs and a former lesbian wife, this is a story about an actor who plays episodic roles, but hopes that his star will still rise, about a guy with a tremendous sense of humor, a very strange masseuse girl with a busy past, one who wears a goldfish in her purse, and of course a spoiled runaway bride. They were such at the very beginning, now these images are remembered really with a smile. Believe me, just for the sake of seeing how they have changed, how they matured, how they built relationships with other people and among themselves it is worth watching this series.
This cult series in many senses is able to give a real storm of emotions every time you return to the history of six friends from New York. It is difficult to overestimate the influence that it has rendered modern society, so if for some reason you have not yet been a guest of the cozy apartment of "Friends", hurry to discover a great option for leisure.
I want to address you, my dear. If you are now sitting alone, watch TV, stick around the computer, it does not matter. Just take the phone, and dial the number of your best friends. Just talk to them, or invite them out for a walk. Go to the cinema, take a movie at the box office. Just stay close to them. And do not forget them ever, because friends are the most expensive.
10 out of 10 from me.
