"What helps 'Friends' is that the show's creators have come up with a highly likable group of actors who are talented and charming."
Chicago Tribune
-
"Though it has its share of irritating characters and moronic moments (...) this is far and away the best of this season's so-called Gen X comedies."
Matt Roush: TV Guide

-
"The clever series (...) stars an appealing group of actors who are just a bit funnier and better-looking than your average friend."
Chicago Sun-Times
-
"Though it has its share of irritating characters and moronic moments - especially in the pilot - this is far and away the best of this season's so-called Gen X comedies."
Matt Roush: USA Today
-
"Friends comes across like a 30-minute commercial for Dockers or Ikea or light beer, except it's smuttier"
Tom Shales: The Washington Post
