Fyi, I didn't do anything today haha :) Woke up, nomnom'ed and did some chores, and that's about it. Kinda a boring New Years as usual, so nothing much to talk about.
Though what I wanted to talk about was that I finished FRIENDS last night. The perfect way to close 2012. Additionally, I watched a program about the closing of the ten seasons of FRIENDS on youtube, consisting a series of interviews of the actors.
One thing they talked about was their initial concern about being in acting and living a two sided life, one consisting of family and another just the roles on screen. What they all discovered was that FRIENDS had given them a new family on screen, and it was the best they could've asked for for a TV show.
It was quite unsettling to hear the casts talk about the end of such an amazing show. For one thing, I was listening to their real selves talking about the characters I know and love. Most of the casts had to absorb the fact that FRIENDS was ending (one episode left to go at the time of the interview), reflecting that they didn't want it to end then. The program went into the history of the show, mentioning the description / pitch of the series as:
It's about sex, love, relationships, careers, a time in your life when everything's possible. And it's about friendship because when you're single and in the city, your friends are your family.The casts heard that and just had to applaud for the directors and writers because yes, that was the beauty of the show.
Loved it.
Well, readers, I wish you can start and finish this amazing TV series. And before that...
