THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION

CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB

Friends is an American television sitcom created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman, which aired on NBC from 1994 to 2004, lasting ten seasons. The show centers around six friends in their 20s and early 30s living in Manhattan, New York City: Rachel Green, Monica Geller, Phoebe Buffay, Joey Tribbiani, Chandler Bing, and Ross Geller. The series explores themes of friendship, love, relationships, and careers. The show's ensemble cast became highly popular, and the series finale was one of the most-watched in television history. Friends was also nominated for 62 Primetime Emmy Awards, winning the Outstanding Comedy Series award in 2002.

CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:

The TV show Friends was originally conceived under the working title Insomnia Cafe. The idea came to the creators as they reflected on the time after college when they first moved to New York.

The show's creators, David Crane and Marta Kauffman, initially pitched a seven-page treatment of Friends to NBC. NBC bought the idea as a put pilot, meaning they risked financial penalties if the pilot was not filmed.

Before settling on Friends, the series had working titles such as Six of One and Friends Like Us. NBC changed the title to Six of One because they felt Friends Like Us was too similar to another sitcom.

The show was lauded as the first true "ensemble" show, and series creator David Crane wanted all six actors to be equally prominent. The cast members made efforts to keep the ensemble format, opting for collective salary negotiations and appearing together on magazine covers.
