CBR11 Bingo: Cannonballer Says I’ll Be There for You: The One about Friends; Kelsey Miller Friends has been all over the internet this month in anticipation of the 25th anniversary of Thursday Night’s Must See TV darling. Kelsey Miller’s charming look into the television series has been on my list since my sister, Badkittyuno, read it a few months back but she is far from the only Cannonballer recommending this one. “Some things don’t change. Friends is a reminder of that, and that’s why so many of us reach for it in times of grief or fear, when catastrophe strikes or when […]

No One Told You Life Was Gonna Be This Way

I'll Be There For You: The One About Friends by Kelsey Miller

I’m old enough that I watched Friends when it first aired, although I don’t remember watching the first episode. I was 13 or 14 at the time, and that was some Not Great, Bob time in our household, so a show that was that funny and that escapist was exactly what I needed. It saw me through my early adolescence, into university, until I caught up with where they started – my early twenties – just as their story was ending. But Friends didn’t go away, not only because it was popular and so many people I knew watched it, […]

I love Friends — I specifically remember that the first episode I watched was Chandler & Monica’s wedding, which the internet tells me was in 2001. So I came to it late but thanks to endless reruns on TBS, and then the purchase of the box set, and now the wonder of Netflix, I’ve seen every episode over and over and over. You probably don’t need to be a superfan to enjoy this oral history of the show, but superfans will definitely get a lot out of it. In the same style as Seinfeldia or those awesome oral histories Vanity Fair does, […]

…You’re There For Me Too

I'll Be There for You: The One About Friends by Kelsey Miller

I remember the first time I watched Friends.  I was about 13 years old, and staying over night at my grandparents’ house, and I was bored.  This is the set of grandparents who had not one toy in their house, and when my sister and I would go over to visit, we were allowed to play with the one pair of binoculars and a cabinet full of Tupperware.  It was breathtakingly dull.  I don’t know why I was allowed to watch TV unsupervised, but Friends came on and I sat and watched the episode enthralled- it was The One With […]
