I just saw Friends last night and it was one of the best episodes ever.
I'm sad to see this show go it could have last at least one more year on tv.
But at least Joey will have his own show, which might be good to watch since he is a great actor.
I really wanted to have a Ross and Rachel spin off instead of Joey thought.
At least I tape the last episode and will watch it again!!!

Good bye to a great show.

Friends will always be with me!!!

"FRIENDS 'TIL THE END: More than 51 million viewers were there for Friends in its final hour last night, making the farewell the second most-watched telecast of the season — behind only the Super Bowl. The figure, which was pretty much in line with expectations, pales in comparison to the 76 million who turned out for Seinfeld's big finish in 1998."

I'm definitely going to watch Friends' final episode when it is here. I love that serie and it's sad it's ending.
I need to buy the DVD boxes someday..

Pink, THERE ARE NO RERUNS. IT'S OVER. NO NOTHING. YOU GET TO WATCH SCRUBS IN THAT TIMESLOT FOR THE SUMMER. IT'S GONE. G-O-N-E. JUST RENT IT. You'll save yourself a world of dissapointment .

Um, if you watch TBS @6, ABC@7, and TBS or CityTV@7:30, you can watch all the reruns of Friends. That's how I've been able to see all the episodes (I was only 6 when the show began).

But I've come to love Friends, and "saying good-bye" to them the other night was hard.

I think the final moment was brilliant. My whole family cried.

I think Secret Disney Man was talking about the shows for this season. They have not been made available to syndication yet, and also, I think it's highly unlikely that the series finale will ever make it to TV again, at least any time soon. The only way to see it is to watch a recording.

Friends and Fraiser will not be seen during the summer since the show is over they don't repeat it any more so check your synication to catch the finale espiode or just buy the DVD.

During the show NBC will show Scrubs, Will and Grace and ER reruns in Friends and Frasier time slot.
Also come to papa a new show will premire at 8:30.
Friends and Fraiser will be repeats but not of the lasts espiodes.
I think not really sure NBC could change their rules.

Great news for the people who miss the Friends Series Finale.
NBC will air the hour long Series Finale on May 20, 2004 at 9:00 P.M.
Last chance to see the end of friends or you could buy the DVD to save your time.
I would prefer to watch the repeat of Friends.

P.S. I hope you don't miss this episode again Pinkrenata.

I saw it, of course, and thought it was the PERFECT ending. I was worried for a bit that Ross and Rachel wouldn't end the way we wanted them to- but they did! I thought the finale was better than Seinfeld's, but then, I think the show is better than Seinfeld. (Don't get me wrong- I love Seinfeld too!).

I'm a HUGE Friends fan/fanatic, and have been watching almost since the beginning. It's both thrilling and very sad/surreal to see it come to an end. With this AND Frasier (the DVDs of which I'll soon start buying) going off, it's a sad time for both TV viewers and NBC. At least they still have Whoopi!

Dunno what to think about Joey. I don't see it lasting long, though I'm sure the first episode or two will have strong viewership. The whole first season could be a success, but I see that entirely depending on how many celebrity cameos and cast returns they can pull in. I'm a little curious about how Joey will wind up in LA, though. I expected that to be covered in the finale.

As for the finale DVD... I'll just wait for Season 10 to come out. I can't see ANY benefit to buying it now, other than simply buying it now. I will NOT be double-dipped. (Easy to say that now, but I bough the four 'Best Of' discs before they started releasing the season box sets).

You took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you Aaron, you saved me a lot of typing! lol

Oh, and I did buy the finale dvd, I didn't want to at first, but then just decided "ahhh what the heck" (heck was replacing another word, that was omitted out of respect for poco)

I too was worried about your above concern, I really liked it, and I can't believe the people that I've heard bash it, there is a review of it on amazon.com that just completely criticizes the finale, oh well, that's their problem, cause I really liked it!
