Friends Reunion


The “Friends” reunion has finally arrived and people (including myself) couldn't be happier. After a long 12 years (yes … it was 2004 when they aired “The Last One”) a reunion of the gang is definitely needed. While Matthew Perry can’t make an appearance, the rest of the gang will be there and it should definitely satisfy the fans (and me) that have been DYING for a reunion over the years.

I have been a Friends fan ever since I watched the first episode, and (honestly) I don't know one person who doesn't enjoy the show. It is one of those shows that didn't have to end. Most shows end when there’s not much more you can add to the storyline, but Friends could’ve continued for years. It was (and still is) such an enjoyable show to watch that not having a reunion (at least once) was unthinkable. 


Fans and reporters are blowing up social media already for the TV Special. The first announcement got fans in a “Twitter frenzy” and it hasn't slowed down since. One blogger has even gone so far as to recreate the characters as Rugrats! Memes have been created from iconic episodes or lines such as “PIVOT” or “oh, my god!” and have been posted all over Twitter and Facebook.  The hashtag has been created on Instagram and has more than 20,000 posts ... which I’m sure will become very large in the next 24 hours. I cant wait to see how social media blows up tomorrow – surely the reunion will be a top trend on social media.



Make sure you tune into NBC tomorrow, February 21 at 9 pm for a TV special you won’t want to miss!
