The Surprisingly Boring History of Friends

In this episode of Sleepcast, we take a slow and peaceful journey through the history of Friends.

From the show’s early development and casting process to ten seasons of apartments, coffee shops, relationships, recurring jokes, and carefully timed studio laughter, we gently explore how Friends became one of television’s most recognisable sitcoms.

Along the way, we encounter Central Perk, six familiar characters, memorable guest stars, changing hairstyles, major salary negotiations, the emotional series finale, and the long-lasting popularity of a show about people spending an impressive amount of time sitting on sofas.

So get comfortable, close your eyes, and let the surprisingly successful history of Friends slowly guide you towards sleep.

Sleepcast – Probably the most boring podcast in the world.
