Friends 'til the End: The Official Celebration of All Ten Years
Friendsfans around the world are mourning the end of the show's 10-year run, but they'll have this lavishly illustrated book to console them. Photographs, both from the episodes and behind-the-scenes, abound, but the many "exit interviews" will be what draws readers. Interviews with the primary six cast members, the show's creators, and some of the prominent recurring guest stars make up the majority of the text in the book. Die-hard fans might know most of the interesting tidbits--that Monica and Joey were intended to be the show's main couple, not Ross and Rachel, or that Monica and Chandler's romance was supposed to be short-lived--but some of the frank discussions in the interviews (like the other cast members' worries and frustrations over Matthew Perry's long battle with an addiction to painkillers) will intrigue passionatefriendsfans. A guest star notes that "Disneyland and thefriendsset are the two happiest places on earth," and everything the cast and creators say backs that up. Fans will seek out this fun retrospective.Kristine HuntleyCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
