Friends, Is there any other ?…

What movies or TV series have you watched more than 5 times?

I had to think twice, was it Sex in the City or Friends ? Ok so it was absolutely Friends. Five disparate characters, who clearly had chemistry off and on screen, centred around an on off romance. I watched this so many times, remembering the massive pay row, where they agreed to all get pais the same despite clearly not all five having equal storytime or popularity. Also I cannot get away from the fact that I identify with Rachel, the coffee house worker, wih ambiion who ends up with her man, her perfect Job and life… Although it took a number of series to get there!! As much as Carrie Bradshawas New York character was hip and the most feminist series. However, for me Friends has a feel good vibe, with its humour, it cross gender relationships and joyful normality. Although possibly the wardrobes of a coffee house worker, probably in real life do not and never did extend to loft apartment with daily cool outfits. However, even to this day, if I want to feel a warm hug in a TV series, it Friends all the way ….
