Friends Reaction- SPOILER ALERT

[kilee]

Yeah had to love the double strollers immediate appearance!! I think we were supposed to overlook that! I was getting so mad when it was 2 minutes to 10pm and she gets back on the plane. All I could think was there wasn't enough time left to bring her back, and I couldn't believe they were going to end it that way. I know it was predictable, but I think it had to end that way. That relationship needed "closure".

When your VCR cut off and Rachel was on the ans. machine, she was on her cell on the plane. The message went on w/ Rachel arguing w/ the flight attendant to let her off the plane. Then the message beeps. Ross is yelling at the machine "let her off the plane" "Did she get off, didn't she......." Then she's in the doorway saying "She did".

I thought they would set up Joey's show more--like maybe show him getting a big acting job offer--

They didn't give Pheobe any big sendoff either--thought it would have been cool for her to find out SHE was pregnant or something (I thought they were leading up to that when Mike told her he wanted to have kids)

SOOOO sad to see that apartment empty at the end with their six keys lying there. Don't know why it makes me want to cry--it just does.

 

[KimRaye]

Could someone pass the tissues? (Said like Chandler does it) I laughed but, I also cried. From 8-10 PM, between Friends and ER.

I will miss Friends but, they left when the leaving was good.

Not sure about those Joey previews tho. Is that the 'BEST' of the show?

 

[FOJMO]

I enjoyed the compilation episode before the actual finale so much more than the finale.

It was good to see all the great moments from previous shows and they pulled it together nicely in little groups/highlights.

The actual finale was so predictable and unemotional for me. I have to say that I bawled my eyes out in the finale M*A*S*H episode, but this didn't even have me teary-eyed...

Just finished watching the show and I was disappointed. It really wasn't that funny and I don't know something just seemed off for me.

Not as bad as the last episode of Seinfeld but definitely not as good as the ending to Sex and the City.

I think the script writers should have had the twins stay at the hospital. First of all, they would have never been released like 10 minutes after birth. Second if all, it would have been nice for the six stars to walk out together without the twins. If you wanted to involve children, what about Ben? Or, the question I ask every week--Where was Emma?

Twins should have just stayed in the hospital,

We haven't seen Ben in forever (barely ever hear his name either). Then Emma's been on only a handful of times this season. That is one place the ball was dropped. It was as if these kids didn't exist in the storyline. Does anyone actually remember the last time Ben was on??? .

 

[two4ruff]

I was just happy that I finally learned what happened to the original duck and chick....been wondering where they went!!

 

[epcotfan]

They didn't give Pheobe any big sendoff either--thought it would have been cool for her to find out SHE was pregnant or something (I thought they were leading up to that when Mike told her he wanted to have kids)

I thought that might happen as well. They didn't really set up what was going to happen with Phoebe or Joey.

 

[Alice28]

I thought it was a great ending to the show..I laughed out loud many times, but did not come close to crying like I thought I might. Some very funny lines and somewhat tongue in cheek jokes...esp the "on a break" one at the end. I will look forward to catching all the reruns of this season as I have missed most of them!

 

[TLinden16]

I thought the show was pretty boring last night--it didn't live up to all the hype surrounding the ending of the show. I've seen much better episodes of Friends.

The twins were a nice surprise. I never expected that. The Ross Rachel thing was totally expected.

I don't think the show lived up to it's hype either.

Did anyone find it annoying that both Monica and Chandler left those babies ALONE when the table was being taken apart???? It was a real credibilty issue for me when they brought the twins home and had a double stroller!!!!

It was almost like that show was an afterthought.

[shatzjsl]

Loved it!

 

[Cindy B]

Yep.. boring and predicatable.

I expected more to happen there. Yes, what happed to Ben and Emma? There was nothing there either.


I can't stand shows that write children in, and then toss them aside.

Why did they leave the twins in the apartment as Monica took apart the foosball table? NEGLECT!

 

[AllyandJack]

I liked it...didn't cry, but I enjoyed it.

Was it me, or did Rachel say the s-word when she was looking for her boarding pass?!?! It didn't sound like "shoot", it sounded like the s-word. Maybe I'm just hearing things?!?!

Totally agree...i BAWLED at the end of SATC!!

I dunno...I just wanted "more" too.

Phoebe's story ended, really, when she got married - she was just there to be a ditz last night.

Where the hell is Emma? heheh

I've found Friends to be predictable as of the last 2 or 3 seasons...but I AM sad to see them go.

However - I think the earlier episodes...which will be in syndication for years...will keep me going...those are the ones that really made me laugh.

and I still cry every time I see Monica attempt to propose to Chandler.

ITA...couldn't wait for it to be over already!

 

[Minnesota!]

BORING!!!

I expected SO much more. I am left feeling disappointed and almost cheated. I don't know - it is really like another poster said - this show was almost like an afterthought. Dissapointing!!!!

 

[stinkerbelle]

I posted this separately but I'll do it again.


when the heck did the chick and the duck die? (the first pair?)

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

I was disappointed. It was a nice suprise with the twins and very predictable that Ross and Rachel got together but I still cried at the end starting with Joey and Chandler saying goodbye. I too thought the show was an after thought and was hoping for it to be better.
