This season reminded me why I am a Friends fan!
After becoming a dedicated Smallville fan when Friends went off the air, I had cooled off to Friends but watching these DVD’s reminded me why I love Friends so much. There is a lot of heart, fun, and jokes in this final season to make it worth the purchase if you are a die hard fan or an occasional watcher. I found season 9 to be a bit dull but season 10 made up for it. My favorite moments have to be from: The One when Ross is Fine – seeing Ross so broken up by Rachel being w/ Joey and getting so drunk. The One with Ross’s Tan – I think it’s self explanatory. Totally funny! The One Where the Stripper Cries – Danny Devito, funny but the best part is when we see them in the past again. The last of fat Monica & a couple interesting revelations. The One with Phoebe’s Wedding – Phoebe gets married!! The One with Rachel’s Going Away Party & The Last One – these last two episodes were great in ending the series. You felt that the stories were complete: Phoebe is married & happy, Ross & Rachel are together w/ their daughter, Monica & Chandler have babies and a house outside the city. The only character with loose ends was Joey and he went on to another show to work those out. And I must say that I cried when I rewatched the Ross & Rachel moments in these two episodes. Very well done: sweet and with an ending that we really needed for these two characters. Special Features: Three Commentaries with Marta, David, & Kevin. They are always insightful and fun to watch. And the Last One was emotional for them. Gag Reel – Super: over 40 minutes. A must see. Friends Final Thoughts – Great very nostalgic interviews with the actor leads & producers. Joey, Joey Music Video – kinda lame could have been done better. Friends of Friends Video Guestbook – Aisha Tyler, Paul Rudd, Christina Applegate. Some great behind the scenes info. I really enjoyed watching this season again, a great way to relive the show we all loved: Friends.

Okay, we might as well admit it: We never really thought Friends would end without a Ross-Rachel reconciliation. But that doesn't mean Season 10 didn't give us some anxious moments along with the comedy. Not content to rest on its laurels and coast to a vaguely satisfying but unsurprising conclusion, this outstanding sitcom continued to break new ground and wove genuinely dramatic situations into the final year's narrative fabric. The season opener, "The One After Joey and Rachel Kiss," finds Joey Matt LeBlanc and Rachel Jennifer Aniston uneasy about revealing their newfound attraction at a time when Ross's David Schwimmer ...
