Product Description

Book Jacket

"Isn't that just kick-you-in-the-crotch, spit-on- your-neck fantastic?"

You watch it, you love it, you even dream about it. That's right, you're a Friends' fanatic and you don't care who knows it. But can you list all of Joey's acting roles or recite the lyrics to each of Phoebe's songs? Or distinguish the difference between Chandler's WENUS and his nubbin? Can you define the "nippular area"? If not, then The Ultimate Friends Companion has come to your rescue. Whatever you need to know about Friends, this definitive guide has the answers.

The Ultimate Friends Companion celebrates the incredible success of the top-rating US comedy series. It provides an extraordinary insight into the making of the series, with behind-the-scenes information about everything from Monica's fat suit to Chandler's duck. It's got rare photographs, profiles of the cast and witty, fact-filled summaries of the story lines that have gripped the nation. You can join the Friends and their friends--Ugly Naked Guy, Mr Heckles, Ursula and more, and relive your favourite Friends' moments. You can also take a look back at the Friends' ill-fated romances- -Chandler and Janice, Ross and Emily, Ross and Marcel the Monkey--and their happy ones … like, well (for now anyway) Chandler and Monica.

The Ultimate Friends Companion is the only official guide to all five seasons of Friends. Peppered with hilarious quotes from the series, it provides an indispensable look at the show and its history and is guaranteed to thrill all Friends' fans.

Answers to comments
Hi and Happy New Millennium to all you Friends fans! This book takes you through all 5 series with a short analysis of every episode. To answer *Bewlv* the reason I didn't do so much about Chandler and Monica is because I started research on the book before they were too serious about eachother and if I'd done another section for them I would have missed my deadline. Hope that answers your question. If anyone-else has questions just post them up and I'll try to answer as many as possible. Perhaps I can try and fix up a webchat sometime soon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Friends fans: Buy this book!, 29 Dec 2001
By A Customer
Qoute from the back of the book: "The watch it, you love it, you even dream about it. That's right you're a Friends Fanatic and you don't care who knows it". Does that sound fumiliar? If it did you definately must be this book; it's great. Lots of pictures and great text about the five first seasons. Magazinecovers and a mini text about the content about that magaxine. Phoebe-song-lyrics. Profiles of the cast. And about who everyone has dated and the ballad of Ross and Rachel. I saw this book and thought it would be good, it wasn't. It was great!

5.0 out of 5 stars could this book BE any better?, 4 April 2003
DEFINATLY the best friends book out there! its got a total review of every single episode series 1-5, plus lyrics to phoebes songs, behind the secene photos, summaries of everyones love intersets, ross/ rachel chandler/janice phoebe and her weird stalker etc etc etc,
its hilarious, tear wrenching and nice to remmebr the good old days, when rachels voice was so high only dogs could hear her, when monica had boobs, and of course when joey was as dumb as a post, so nothings changed there.....
ive read it at LEAST 5 times, and you NEED it on hardback, to make it that little bit more special
