The theme song to ‘Friends’ is called ‘I’ll be there for you’ by pop group ‘The Rembrandts’. When I hear the song, I feel happy. This is because I remember one or few episodes of ‘Friends’ and its jokes I feel different after the song. Images and music are shown together because music is based on situation that the best way that you share with your friends.
So, no one told you life was gonna be this way, --- The viewer doesn’t expect that life isn’t like you planed.
Your Job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A. --- Rachel is working in a café shop, Ross is divorced for 3 times.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear. --- Joey’s life is going slowly.
And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year. ---When you are depressed, your friends and this sitcom are there for you.
But-
I'll be there for you...
When the rain starts to fall.
I'll be there for you...
Like I've been there before.
I'll be there for you...
Cause you're there for me, too.
This summarises the theme of natural friendship and respect.
We see the cast of the show during the opening titles. They are dancing all funny and joking. The actors are attractive to viewers and makes viewer laugh. The famous actors acted in Friend like Julia Roberts and others. The actors are:
Ross Geller (David Schwimmer): Ross is Monica's brother. He is palaeontologist.
He is teacher teaching through boring lectures. He always talks about science.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monica E. Geller (Courteney Cox): Monica is Ross' sister. She is a cook. She loves the clean house that is whuy she often does tiding. She loves to learn things and even write the tests.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chandler Muriel Bing (Matthew Perry): Chandler is a manager over other data processors. His job is officially, "Statistical analysis and data reconfiguration." He is Joey’s best friend in programme, they were room mates until he girlfriend Monica.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joey Francis Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc): Joey lived with Chandler across from Rachel and Monica. He still lives there, but his roommate has changed frequently. He is an aspiring actor who continually gets rather pathetic roles.
Joey is kind slow intellectually. He is quite active with the females, but never has a lasting relationship.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rachel Karen Green (Jennifer Aniston): Rachel is very much a suburbs woman, who, until the start of the series, had never held a job and had always lived off daddy's money. She often gets together with Ross her friend in the programme.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Phoebe Buffay (Lisa Kudrow): Phoebe is actually lost in her life that is why she is a lit a bit crazy, she grew up in the streets with her grandmother, she has a sister, but they almost never see each other.
She wants to find her real dad and mother.
The italic writing used for titles is important. It looks as if was written by hand. Italic writing is old Romanian writing which was used about two thousands year ago and it still stayed.
Opening titles to TV programmes and films are important. This is because “Friends” is the most famous and successful sitcom in the world. I like “Friends” very much because this sitcom knows how to make funny situations. The produces tries to make better sitcom than ‘Friends’, but my opinion they will never make a better one.
