Damn she is so annoying nowadays. I think its her who needs to let it go the show would be ridiculous now especially with your horrible new face in HD.

They should leave it alone though - it was a show of it's time, it ended well and I think a movie would spoil the memory of it.
They should get them together for some kind of reunion special - maybe some kind of big cast interview about their memories of the show, stuff like that.
"'We've gotten about 80 percent there, but there's always one person who flakes at the end,' Courteney explained......'I'm not going to name names, but it may not be [David] Schwimmer,' was all the actress would say."
Or he just thinks it is better left in the past, Nothing bad about being happy to leave something alone. Doesn't mean he thinks he is better
Very few things come back and are as good. I hate to imagine how stupid Joey would be now, How annoying Monica would be and what the latest Ross and Rachel drama would be
Something with just the cast getting together might work but not more episodes please
In fact with the exception of Rachel (who in my view had the best character development of the 6), they all either became very boring *Cough*Chandler, why Chandler? You used to be so funny dammit! *Cough* or complete caricatures of their former selves. Monica and Joey were the worst effected IMHO.
It was about a period in time when the characters went from their 20's to their 30's, grew up and changed as people. Seeing a group of characters in their 40's paying the mortgage, having early nights and juggling work with childcare really doesn't fit with the ethos
Towards the end despite the fact they were now in their late 20's the expressions and over the top hand gestures and immaturity of the characters didn't make it as good as the first few seasons which were gold.
There is a big difference watching early seasons and the later ones with all the characters. Phoebe was always aloof so could get away with it. The girls and Ross were always my favourite characters. Joey I didn't find believable that he would be that dumb and Chandler had too many little gimmicks/phrases attached to him that I didn't find funny.
The character of Ross they really messed up as for a while they just made his character bizarre and weird and over the top.
I agree Rachel had the best character development of them all but from the first show she was shown as shallow and dependant on her fathers money so this was always likely to be the case as her character had room to grow in many ways.
I agree Monica character changed when she was with Chandler I actually thought her and Richard were the better couple.
I totally agree though it should be left as it was and people should accept the premise was six friends in their twenties and that's been served.
Leave them in the past. Reunions are always a disappointment. Leave us with happy memories.
From what I've read they have trouble getting together for a personal reunion between themselves, and David Schwimmer is the flakiest. There is gossip that he doesn't get along with the rest of them.
I have a feeling this may also have come about for the Entertainment Weekly reunion specials - the Friends cast are top of their wishlist, I believe. I think it will happen eventually, they might do a TV interview too or something, but actually I think most of them are smart enough to leave portraying the actual characters in the past.
It's been ten years - a movie would be horrendous. The whole point of Friends was that they were young adults finding their way in life. With the exception of Joey (hence the spin off), they all did this. To have a movie, 10 years later, would just be awful.
The actors must be sick and tired of being asked about it in almost every bloody interview.
They've all had success post show; Kudrow in particular has done some awesome shows; although more niche than mass market.
Nah. Probably Matthew Perry instead of LeBlanc. He's always off doing some show that only lasts one or two seasons and probably isn't available much.
Is Jennifer acting in that because she seems genuinely annoyed all the way through?
She is just acting so don't worry.
Remember quite a lot of chat shows in America are scripted, this would've been rehearsed in advance plus both Aniston and Kimmel are known to be good friends.
Completely agree! I really liked the Monica/Richard coupling, thought he was a perfect match for her character. Shame they broke them up.
Also if anyone is interested we have a little discussion over in the TV forums, started out as a nitpicking thread but any conversation re friends is welcome
