The One With All Ten Seasons

I began "PROJECT FRIENDS" on August 22, 2009, a journey I had wanted to take for a few years and hadn't had the time. Now it was time. The project you ask...to re-watch all ten seasons of the hit sitcom "FRIENDS". It was no easy feat, but it was a helluva lotta fun!

It amazes me how much the stars of the show changed from season 1 - season 10. Especially the season by season weight loss/gain of Matthew Perry and the high pitch of Jennifer Aniston's voice in the earlier seasons to the normal sounding voice she has in later seasons and today. Out of all six actors, Lisa Kudrow was the one that changed the least in terms of looks wise. The fashion in the earlier seasons are hideous! Especially Carol & Susan's wedding dresses (AND HATS!) in The One With The Lesbian Wedding.

Here are a few notes.

Ross broke up with Phoebe's bald friend, Julie, and Emily all for Rachel and then the result is him and Rachel not working out. Question - does Rachel like Ross when he's NOT seeing someone?

In order to get Joey to forgive him after making mistakes in their friendship Chandler has - lived in a box, gotten an ugly bracelet for joey and worn blue lipstick.

The chick & the duck disappear without a word and we don't find out what happened to them until the series finale!

Why in all 10 seasons has Jennifer Aniston's dad (John Aniston) never guest starred? Especially because he's on Days of Our Lives, which is the soap of FRIENDS!

I really really DESPISE all the filler episodes (or the clip shows that are in every season).

In practically every season you can see Jennifer Aniston's nipples through her shirt, so either she doesn't wear a bra or she's always cold.

I realized that in one of the seasons Matt LeBlanc talks out of the right side of his mouth.

The ages of the characters on the show are SO WRONG! It bothers me. Also, the continuity of the scenes need to be better, in one scene Monica is pouring a glass of juice. She puts the pitcher on the table and holds the glass. In the NEXT shot she is holding the pitcher and the glass is on the table. In another episode Joey goes into Monica & Chandler's fridge and gets a bunch of sodas. In his left hand are an Orange juice and another type of juice. in the NEXT shot in his left hand he is holding a diet coke and a regular coke.

Some favorites I've learned through watching the series:

Joey's favorite book is 'The Shining'
Rachel's favorite book is 'Little Women'
Chandler loves the drink yoo-hoo
Joey loves lasagna
