Here's why there are already spin-offs on "friends" of the special meeting

The fact that the special would be "not scripted" has fans less than enthusiasm.


Tuesday,Hollywood journalist announced that the original stars ofFriends were in discussions to make a special meeting for HBO max. While nothing has been confirmed, told sourcesTHR that the six of the main distribution members are "in talks to reunite" for the unsecured special, which gives a new meaning to the photo of the meeting whichJennifer Aniston Recently posted when she joined Instagram.

Naturally, many fans of theBeloved '90 Sitcom were very excited by the news.

Like, crying tears of excited joy.

But in all the excitement, many people seem to miss an important detail, which is that the special would be "not scripted". There is no word about how it would work exactly. Would the six actors get closer to their time onFriends? Or would they play their characters and improvising their lines? Because it sounds ... Not good. Five of them have also already done the first during aTribute to the directorJames Burrows In 2016 and it was ... not good.

In an article entitled "A fireFriends The meeting would be a diabolic mess, "Guardian criticismStuart Heritage Has not chewing words when he explained why the whole idea seemed to be a gourmet disaster.

"The amount of money thatFriends Generates always is amazing, which means that the distribution will be extraordinarily well offset at their meeting, "Heritage wrote". And since it would be a non-scripted special, which essentially means that they will just scratch on a scene and remember Gunther for a moment, it can very well qualify as the best afternoon paid of all their lives. "

Like other people on social media, heritage noted that the British television show struckThe entrees Similar special year's day, who left fans feel deceived. The whole cast iron looked "troublesome and poorly prepared," he wrote and "the host continued to confuse the actors with the characters they played", since a special Not scripted is an uncomfortable limb between television and reality.

Specifically forFriendsFans whose dreams of a restart have been shot several times, it has been quite a rollercoaster. In September,Friendsco-creatorMarta KauffmanRecountRolling stone That a meeting "could only disappoint" fans because the show was about "a time of your life when your friends are your family" and "it's no longer that time."

And, in October, Aniston saidHoward Sternon hisSirius XM Radio Show That a restart would be "ruin" the show because it would not be "being even close to the quality of what it was." More recently, however, she said onEllen That while it was still against a restart, all the melting "would she like there to be something" and they worked on what something would be.

But is it unkisfied the best answer? After all, even wakes scripts were not well received in the past. OfFull houseToDevelopment stoppedToGilmore girlsFavorites are returned on the small screen only to let the public.

And let's be honest with ourselves: Do we potentially see Ross and Rachel on another "break"? Does Joey do not seem to appear to act, hold a general relationship or adult ever always cute now that he is in his 50s? It can be realistic, safe, but when it comes to our favorite shows - a reminder thatNobody told you that life was going to be this way Is not exactly what we are looking for in terms of television escape.
