Huh. Yesterday was the fifth anniversary of the end of Friends. The TV series finale that aired on May 6, 2004 was the fourth most-watched finale in television history, after M*A*S*H, Cheers and Seinfeld.
Yes, 52.5 million American viewers watched to see just how far Monica had castrated Chandler, how much of a joke Ross had become, and how cute Jennifer Aniston still was.
Amazingly, it was also the last time anyone in America watched a sitcom.
Friends was survived by its still-born red-headed retarded stepchild, Joey.
