Friends is a long-running American television situation comedy revolving around a group of friends (aged somewhere between their late twenties and early forties) who share neighbouring apartments in Manhattan.

The initial premise of the series has "the friends" in their mid-twenties. Monica and Phoebe stay together in Monica's apartment. Chandler is looking for a new roomie, Rachel runs away from her wedding altar and later moves in with her high school mate Monica. Obviously, Joey becomes Chandler's new roomie, interestingly Chandler wasn't too keen to have Joey move in with him, but the guy who he chose never shows up. The friends hang out a lot at the nearby coffee shop. Ross or rather Dr Ross, is a scientist and works at a museum. Chandler is a data processer for his company. Joey is an actor; Rachel was the spoilt Daddy's girl who later works as a waitress in a coffeeshop, Central Perk, so she could be more independent and stand on her own two feet, while Monica is a chef.

Nine seasons of the show have been broadcast, and a tenth season was in doubt, but has recently been commissioned at a fee of $10,000,000 an episode.

Main cast members:

Jennifer Aniston (Rachel Karen Green)
Matthew Perry (Chandler Muriel Bing)
Courteney Cox Arquette (Monica Geller) from season 8 (Monica Bing)
Matt LeBlanc (Joey Francis Tribbianni)
Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe Buffay), also occasionally her twin sister Ursula
