It’s time to introduce to you my all time favourite season show. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. For those who have yet to watch a single episode, you should seriously be shot. I have watched all the 10 seasons over and over again and it has never failed to put a smile on my face.
It’s the energy that they give off and their on screen chemistry. It’s their ability to potray just how awesome it is to have six close friends and spending their daily lives together and just a simple season sow showing all the knacks that ordinary people get into makes you realise that your life can just be as colourful as theirs!
Just what makes this season show so colourful despite being put in an ordinary setting where the film spots are either the coffe house or the home. After Coms lesson the other day, i realised the non-verbal cues are indeed an intricate part in our lives. The reason why they are so popular is they are able to read off another character’s expression. I put in one of a my favourite clip from FRIENDS where they were trying to get Emma to crawl. Through non-verbal cues. You can see Rachel being all excited about it and it makes you intrigue to continue watching on. Chandler does his usual sarcastic quotations towards Joey and about Emma’s crawling. And finally when all are standing still, Phoebe came in and read off their actions as standing still, and in the usual eccentric way that she is, picked up a pot and followed them standing still, “Whose painting us?” This shows, attribution where she explains their behavior and follow it. And just why do people love friends? It is their novelty and their intensity of the humour!

FRIENDS is like awesome.Do you know that one of their writers is Singaporean?The way the actors’ potray their character’s is so very realistic too.All in all,I totally agree that people who dont watch friends should be shot.

Perhaps one of the most innovative, interesting, witty, bright and emotional drama comedy which makes the average person sit up and watch! Good one elaine! UNAGI.
And in this scene, you could point out that our body language can be perceived differently by each individual! Like how they stood still to avoid distracting emma, and phoebe took it as a pose for a portrait! Goodness!
Hope this awesome comedy continues to carry on to the next generation!!!!
Comment by Audrey J Low September 28, 2009 @ 10:44 amRoss’ classic scream! I think it remains an all time favourite. Really makes you feel like a part of them after all 10 seasons. I would rank it above How I Met Your Mother.
Comment by V September 28, 2009 @ 3:29 pmGotta love Friends! Don’t think there will ever be a show that can match it in popularity and awesomeness.
The best chemistry, I feel, is between Joey and Chandler. More often than not they understand each other to a degree that the rest can’t pick up on, almost like they have their own language. Like The One wtih the Blackout, where Chandler was trapped in an ATM vestibule with Jill Goodacre, and he’s trying to tell Monica in a stifled voice but only Joey can understand him. LOL
Comment by Chander October 11, 2009 @ 7:55 pmFRIENDS is definitely one of my all-time favourite. It bring a sense of warmth and closeness to ones heart, this relates especially to those who have cliques similar to the one shown in FRIENDS. In good times or bad, you know that there are friends out there who are willing to lend a listening ear. GOOD SHOW!!!
Comment by Darryl November 1, 2009 @ 8:39 amI never get tired of watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S too! Non verbal cues certainly is essential in friendships. It makes it a lot easier when you don’t have to say anything and your close friend/s are understand you perfectly1
Comment by shadowcat November 1, 2009 @ 1:31 pmyeah i agree that non verbal cues are important. you can really tell if someone is sincere just by looking at their gestures. but then again, computer mediated communications can bond relationships pretty well too. i know quite alot of how my friends are doing just by going online to FACEBOOK! see you soon elaine!!!!!
