Friends: The Stuff You've Never Seen (2001 TV Special) User Reviews

How come this isn't included on every DVD box of Friends?

[Ernasto · 10 April 2003]

To sum up: this is GREAT! There must've been hours of bloopers and stuff we didn't see of Friends on tv over the years. How come a compilation like this one isn't included on every DVD boxset that has been released so far? I felt left in the cold with hardly any special features on the DVD's.

This is a perfect way to show bloopers, goofs and scenes too explicit for tv. A great way for compiling an episode like this one, is with comment from the cast. They know what went wrong and why, very hilarious. Conan O'Brien was an excellent choice to host this show, but I expected him to be a lot funnier, like he is in his own show. Here he was simply presenting the clips, with little Conan-Comedy..

All in all, I watched this show over and over, because it's so funny watch them screw up!

Definitely 9 out of 10

Good for fans of the show

I myself have not watched really any "Friends", only an episode here and there, but I will maybe change this some day and take a deeper look into the series. Here we have a 17-minute special from almost 15 years ago, in which Conan O'Brian interviews the cast of the long-running television series and they tell us about certain aspects or particular scenes that were especially memorable. At this point the show was running for 7 of its 10 seasons. I have to say even if I am not too familiar with the series it made for a good watch. Of course you never know how authentic it all was or if there were really any arguments that we did not know of just because these people are trained actors and can easily hide them, but it looked like they were having a lot of fun here. The only thing I did not like that much were all the laughing tracks from the audience. These became annoying quickly and sometimes they were even so loud and all over the place that it was difficult to entirely understand the cast's interactions and what they were saying. But apart from that, it's a fun watch. Nice idea also to do it on the Friends' sofa. Recommended.

My favorite Show

[QTGymnist3721 · 19 January 2002]

I love Friends it's my favorite show and I watch it everyday. I make my own Friends tapes and have volumes 1-4 on dvd and vhs. I'm a total friends fanatic and know all about the show. Ask me any question and I'll know it. Rachel is my favorite character but I act the most like Monica. I'm a clean freak. If you don't watch Friends you don't know what your missing. It's the funniest show ever. I have memorized over 30 episodes and I'm still learning them. What I want more than ever is to meet the characters and go to a taping but i can't because I'm not 16. I love all actors on the show, you make me happier everyday! THANK YOU!

Only for Friends Fanatics

This was more or less meant and produced for Friends fanatics, and if you don't fall into this category I suggest reading a fine book instead. It's your average contrived behind the scenes show, the banter of the cast seems pretty forced, and you can tell that poor Conan O'Brien feels like a total tool hosting this thing. That said, some of the outtakes did make me chuckle a bit, more than most episodes of the regular series do.
