Two weeks from today Channel 4 will be showing the final episode of Friends. To go out with a bang, C4 are planning to show a record 12 episodes in one day. "sounds like a normal C4 day to me" some might say. Just incase that wasn't enough Friends for you, E4 have gone one further and are going to bless all you Friends fans with a Friends "classic" (repeat to you and me) episode on the hour, EVERY hour.

The day also marks the start of Big Brother 5, so that means lots more "quality" C4 programming for the rest of the summer.

Although I have been a fan of the series Friends since the beginning and despite having already seen the final episode, I will tune in to see it on C4, but I really do think it's a bit much. C4 is a terrastrial channel that you would expect to cater the viewing interests of everyone. It seems there answer to everything is Friends, when they axed Rise they replaced it with Friends, when they moved Fit Club because of it's low ratings, they replaced it with Friends. Are they so limited with their programming catalog that they only have 10 seasons of Friends to offer the British viewing public? I know I can always not bother watching C4 and E4 on the day, but seriously it does deserve a rant even if I do enjoy the series (although I really didnt enjoy the final season)

I'm curious to know how C4 will mark the end of Frasier, I don't think I've seen any ads advertising the final series of Frasier which is a shame as it's such a great series.

To replace the Friends friday time slot (dont get your hopes up they'll still show Friends "classics" on C4/T4/E4) The Simpsons will be shown at 9pm and the recently snapped up Friends spinoff "Joey" is expected to get the 9:30pm slot.

I think I'll watch some TV now, ah look at that a Friends episode on C4, I should have saw that coming.

Oh. My. God.

I can have said that in a Janice voice if it helps.

I do however know what happens. It's very cheesy.

It has to be a lie...

Nothing adds up. Why would Ross go to Paris without Rachel? Why would Joey be gay and living with Rachel, when he's got his own, solo series coming up? And I seriously doubt Monica would die - it's supposed to be a light hearted sitcom!

She must have just made it up to watch us squirm...

Not only is it a terrestrial station, it's a government owned one. Just commercially run.

She better be, or I won't be happy. If that's a spoiler, I'll cry.

Frineds in the morinnig is a definate plus.
Rise was crap.

And it's a one off, they show us enough fitness programs, house changing, reality crap, I'd rather watch friends all day than the crap that's on for the rest of the day.
