Editorial Review:

Description:
A must-have gift for the avid Friends fan! Friends: The One with All Ten Seasons includes all ten seasons from the groundbreaking series, in a limited edition collector's box.

Amazon.com:
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.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - greatly disappointed
I never received the DVD as promised despite several attempts to contact this seller. He promised the item by the end of the week twice and never delivered. I even paid for expedited shipping and no item six weeks later. I ended up asking for a refund.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Make sure all your disks work asap
This is a hard once since we are talking about 40 something disks and hours and hours of viewing. Several of the disks had problems skipping etc and the finally would not play at all. So we paid big bucks to have all the disks together and we still have to hang on too all the old VHS tapes and other DVD's to actually have the whole show. Of course the seller ignored all of our attempts to perhaps fix the problem.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - A DVD missing
I go the whole package and i thought everything was fine until i got to the 10th DVD, only that it wasnt in there. They send me twice DVD 9 but DVD 10 was missing.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Bought from - fotrecords_
"Bought Friends 40 Disc set. Said it was a NEW SEALED PACKAGE. I open the seal and removed the first disc to find scratches and finger prints. Then the next one was the same. All 40 had scratches and finger prints on them. This was repacked and sold as new. Also it had foreign writing on the box. Clearly not a U.S. product! No booklet in box. Refunded money promptly - I had to pay shipping back to them."
DO NOT BUY FROM - fotrecords_



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Amazon should give up selling this product.
I got 2 copies of the set (2nd one was the replacement). Both have the same problem. The disc 2 is the same as the disc 20. Therefore, the episodes that are supposed to be in the disc 2 ARE MISSING.

In addition, you are paying more than 200 dollars, and you are getting a product which is poorly packaged where discs are easily scratched. Disc contents are not standard (some discs have more subtitle options).

The only good thing is that Amazon.com has a perfect return policy. ... Read More
