what'd you think of the friends premiere?

[SPAGo 98]

i didn't like it much. i didn't think the plot was very interesting at all. it was very predictable. the next episodes had better be more interesting.

 

[browneyes]

It was too blah.

That show has out worn it's welcome. It was very dull tonight....way too predictable

 

[ASFCurly]

I liked it.

I think they're trying to have a cliff-hanger OD.

It was pretty lame & nothing was really resolved IMO.

Very predictable.

These actors are so good, and play off one another so well, but really, the show has a built in time limit. When it started with a bunch of twentysomethings sharing apartments in New York and hanging out together all the time, it was believable. Now that most of the actors are pushing 40, I think its really necessary for it to end this year. I guess they have evolved to some extent with Chandler & Monica getting married, and now the new baby brought into the picture - but the characters are all supposed to be around my age, and I sure don't know anyone my age who has their lifestyle.

And since this is supposed to be the final year, I sure hope we can see more of Phoebe and Joey, both underused, and less of the sniveling Ross. I think David Schwimmer is a terrific actor, but his character has become pathetic.

Parts of it were funny..... overall, not great.

 

[disnee15]

I thought it was rather funny, and that the door kept opening was the funniest part...

 

[spb999]

I heard on an entertainment report this morn that now that they won an Emmy they are now considering a 10th season .... I think the show has run it's course ... I love the reruns more than I've been able to get into the last season or so ....

Me TOO!!!! It was so cute to see that side of Joey last season .Why she would want to be with Ross is beyond me.

I thought it was predictable (except for learning that Ross HAD NOT intended to propose), but it was pretty funny too.

I used to be a big Ross and Rachel fan - but he drives me nuts now. It looked like Joey was "backing off," which, IMHO isn't a good thing.

"You're WEARING the ring. When you thought Joey proposed, you said YES?" I think having a cliff hanger at the end of each episode (if they continue) turns it into a soap opera, instead of a sitcom.

I kept waiting for Mr. Roper to pop in. Way too Three's Company for my taste. What a waste of a talented cast. I hope next week's episode is better.

Funny how we can all have such different opinions about the same thing.. I thought last night's episode was really funny. It might have had something to do with the fact that I TiVoed it and watched it at 2 am, but still, I really enjoyed it. I hadn't been enjoying the past few seasons as much, and I felt like it had been running its course, but I really did like last night's episode.
Except for the fact that Ross has gotten incredibly annoying, ick. I just adore Joey though!
