No 'Friends' reunion needed

A 'Friends' reunion would just be a terrible idea. Twenty years ago we welcomed ‘Friends’ to our television screens and ten years ago we said 'goodbye' to it.

The decade of laughs the show provided wasn't enough for some fans and talks of a ‘Friends’ reunion is still vivid.

The show gave us such a perfect ending, that a ‘Friends’ reunion would just be redundant.

This show was so successful, that it makes people wonder: ‘I wonder what these guys are up to now?’.

But logically speaking, a reunion just wouldn't be favorable. Because, when the show began, the characters were in their mid twenties.

Creator Marta Kauffman said it perfectly: 'Friends was about that time in your life when your friends are your family’.

Now, well, they’d all be over 40. Monica and Chandler would be raising their twins and Ross and Rachel would have a 12 year old daughter. So its difficult to imagine how the characters could be the same people we’d grown to love. It would all just seem a little far fetched.

There’s also the problem of where this reunion would take place. So where would the 'Friends' gang hang out now? What would we see now, Monica and Rachel Instagraming each other pictures of their kids? Chandler with a ‘words with friends’ addiction.

Isn't it best to leave it at everybody getting their happy ending? Anything more would feel forced and risk ruining the show’s memories.

They said ‘I'll be there for you’ at the beginning of each episode, which they are, whenever we replay their youth series.
