I’ll Be There for You: The Evolution of Friends
How the characters changed throughout the series, their best moments, and what I think they’re doing now!
Friends is an iconic 1990’s show. Every fan has a character they can relate to and the scenarios portrayed in some of the episodes were situations that some of us have experienced in our own lives.
I love this show and I’ve watched it since its debut on September 22, 1994.
My favorite episode of the series was “The One With the Five Steaks and an Eggplant”. In this season 2 episode: Rachel, Phoebe, and Joey feel that Chandler, Ross, and Monica don’t understand that they can’t afford to live the same lifestyle as the latter trio does.
Rachel is a waitress, Joey is an unemployed actor, and Phoebe is a masseuse. They don’t make as much money as Chandler, Monica, and Ross do. When they confront Ross, Monica, and Chandler about this issue, this causes resentment among the group.
This was my favorite episode because it was a relatable scenario.
As the series progressed, the “friends” seemed to become more affluent and money became less of an issue (aside from the running joke of Joey borrowing money off Chandler and not paying it back).
