If we were living in the sitcom F.R.I.E.N.D.S, it'd be Ross Geller's 45th birthday today. What a strange co-incidence that I just watched the last episode of the final season of one of the most loved sitcoms of all times. It took me less than a month to complete the entire 10 seasons, and I am just so sad it had to end. Like a good friend, F.R.I.E.N.D.S was my perennial companion all this while. I have lost count of the number of nights I've fallen asleep to an episode playing in the background.
All good things come to an end. Not always to make way for something better though. It is true that life goes on, no matter what. And there are some things in life that nothing can replace. The wonderful times, memories, tears and laughs stay with you. F.R.I.E.N.D.S is one such thing for me. I never knew I could get so attached to a bunch of fictional characters in this way, especially those that are not in a book. The only gang on celluloid that comes as close as this in my radar of affection is Sheldon Cooper and friends from the Big Bang Theory.
Even though I know I can just pick out any episode and watch it whenever I want, thanks to the technological advancement of modern age, I have a strange feeling in my stomach. The kinds one gets when you lose something, and especially after I know how it ends. Nevertheless, splendid job David Crane and Marta Kauffman. Thank you!
