QotD: Friends
Posted May 6th, 2004 @ 11:10pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: Did you watch the final episode of Friends?
My Answer: Shamefully, I admit that I did. The gal wanted to see it, and I obliged. But it was put on the TiVo and we skipped the commercials, dammit. I wonder how much NBC was able to to get for those slots…

I too watched for my lady, also on TiVo, but I was happy to miss the commercials. Most commercials are so over-played they drive me insane. I think about 15% of commercials today are really entertaining and creative (like budweiser's).
I thought the final episode was a good ending to a pretty funny show. I hate to admit it but I laughed through most of it.

I'm sad to see it go. 10 years of my TV life has come to a conclusion. At least I have Will & Grace still.

I watched it, just because I had to. Yes, that's right, I had to.

Yeah, I had to watch it, too. I'm happy with how it ended, I think.

Technically they said the price was at $2 million, but few paid that much. Advertisers that bought stuff all year, or have big accounts (Pepsi/Gatoraid for example) got deep discounts. Much like Superbowl seats are perks, Friends Finale commercials made sure certain clients stayed with NBC.
I think the $2 million price was if you called an hour before the show and have never run an ad on NBC before. 😛
