Product Description
Complete collection of all ten seasons of the television program about six friends living in New York.
Genre: Television
Rating: NR
Release Date: 14-NOV-2006
Media Type: DVD

A sitcom behemoth of the last 10 years, Friends shot out of the gate in 1994 with snappy writing and an attractive cast. The exploits of sensitive paleontologist Ross Geller (David Schwimmer), his obsessive-compulsive sister Monica Geller (Courteney Cox); Monica's roommate Rachel Green (Jennifer Aniston), a spoiled rich girl trying to live on her own; earthy aromatherapist/masseuse Phoebe Buffay (Lisa Kudrow); and Monica's neighbors across the hall-- sarcastic Chandler Bing (Matthew Perry) and his dim-bulb roommate Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc) became a nationwide obsession, a pop-culture icon (remember "The Rachel" haircut?) and a top Nielsen hit for its entire run. 
See the 10 or more seasons club . | The first two seasons were mostly centered on the on-off saga of Ross and Rachel, and while their relationship remained a strong presence through romantic rivals and even a baby, the other characters eventually moved from sideshow players into a shared comedic lead. But Friends was not without its heart. Most of the cast had dysfunctional relationships with their parents and went through loss, divorce, marriage, parenthood, and love triangles. The emotional pregnancies of Rachel (by Ross) and Phoebe (surrogate to her half-brother's triplets) won the actresses Emmy Awards, and Joey's tender feelings for Rachel in Season 8 won LeBlanc, the most improved actor in the series, a nomination. Most sitcoms run out of ideas by the fifth season, but Friends gave itself a refreshing jolt the minute Monica and Chandler wound up in bed together. Their budding romance was not only the one of the funniest arcs of the series, but one of the most sentimental, as they planned a wedding, struggled to have a child and eventually turned to adoption. By seasons seven and on, the characters had each "grown up" from young singletons to thirtysomethings finding permanence in their careers and love lives but never losing the laughs.

| Friends featured a parade of celebrity guests, but unlike Will & Grace, it actually utilized most of the stars as more than cameos: The sextet's parents were all brilliantly cast, particularly Kathleen Turner as Chandler's drag-queen father and Teri Garr as Phoebe's dizzy mom. Everyone from George Clooney to Sean Penn to Julia Roberts to Bruce Willis has appeared on the sitcom, and Tom Selleck certainly enjoyed a career resuscitation after his recurring role as Monica's older man. But no star power ever penetrated the bond between the six stars, and their unmatchable chemistry worked for 10 seasons. Even if the show is on reruns daily, this boxed set of Friends remains watchable over and over again--even if that theme song grates on your nerves. Standout episodes include The One With All The Poker (Season 1), The One With The Birth (1), The One With the Prom Video (2), The One With the Flashback (3), The One Where Monica and Richard are Just Friends (3), The One Where Ross and Rachel Take a Break (3), The One With the Embryos (4), The One With All the Wedding Dresses (4), The One With the Thanksgiving Flashbacks (5), The One Where Everybody Finds Out (5), The One Where Ross Got High (6), The One With the Videotape (8), The One With the Rumor (8), The One With the Male Nanny (9), The One With Rachel's Other Sister (9), The One With Ross' Tan (10), and The One Where the Stripper Cries (10). --Ellen A.

 DVD Collection November 23, 2009
KVP (Okinawa, Japan)
I am very impressed with the service that Amazon.com provides. I ordered my Friends DVD Collection and received it here in Japan in 7 days. The DVD Collection of Friends speaks for itself - everyone should own it! I will continue to shop with Amazon!
Very pleased! November 16, 2009

Relieved and happy with purchase November 14, 2009
DJ Evans (Zombieland, USA)
While I read many good reviews here prior to making my purchase, I was initially worried when I also read many negative reviews here mentioning poor product packaging, product arriving in poor shape, product missing the episode-guide booklet, episodes not in chronological order (?), missing discs, and damaged discs that would not play properly among other problems (one review mentioned a disc where the laugh track was audible but dialogue was not?!). I went ahead and ordered thinking I would inspect it right away and return it if it was flawed in any way ($134.99 is a GREAT price although I guess I just missed an all-time low price of $114.99). Not only did I receive the product promptly (less than 48 hours after the order went through). It arrived in perfect condition. I immediately tested all 40 discs (playing the start of random episodes on each disc) and I found NO PROBLEMS (by the way, the episodes ARE in chronological order and each disc DOES have a main menu which makes it very easy to go to any specific episode). I sympathize with those who received a damaged or incomplete product. I, for one, am very happy with my purchase. Not only am I satisfied with the product. Amazon.com's price, free shipping option, and speedy delivery time met my expectations as well.
Great Item November 8, 2009
JMC (USA)
Great series, great DVDs (excellent condition), great booklet, great box, great package. What could I say more? $114.99, that's a steal, that's the best deal of the year. Thank you Amazon. Anyway, the DVDs were in perfect condition. The booklet is unbelievable (great quality).

The entire fifth season was missing. No problem, I can purchase one season. There was a CD missing from the fourth season. And a CD missing from the sixth season. In order to have a complete set of the first six seasons, I will have to purchase three years!
