But still, it was fun to watch. Somehow I missed the final episode and am not enough of a techy to find it online. So I ordered this, the price was fair, the product as described and the delivery was excellent.

Actually, I ordered this DVD thinking that this finale comes with their last interview where all 6 friends came together and talked about their experiences when acting in Friends. Though it was not the DVD I was expecting, I still enjoyed it. The prompt delivery in good condition was great. I really enjoy watching it over and over again. No sitcom can beat Friends.

Ordered this for Xmas and it was delivered in record time. Everything was to my satisfaction.

the only reason i bought this one was because it has the "broadcast" version of the last show,and i knew that would be the only way to see it after the 10th season came out. some nice extras but still you do better buying the complete seasons.

When I purchased this DVD, I was so excited thinking that it will came with a special edition on the last episode of Friends. Unfortunately, it came with the same final episode from Season 10, so I was watching the same episode twice. I didnt find anything special on that DVD. It came with the final episode with a different ending but I didnt see something really different...

Cons:
Both episodes appear in season packages, and the main reason you would have to buy this DVD is because you want to watch the extended version of the finale. Besides, it's just a waste of time to watch the intro videos of the 10 seasons...like 7 minutes of the same, and the music video "I'll Be There For You" just sucks!.

Pros:
However, I own this DVD because the 10th season still hasn't been released in my country, and the extended edition of the finale has lots of really funny parts that don't appear in the broadcasted edition, and it's very funny. Plus, you can watch also the 1st Friends episode ever, which is so, so funny, I think it's one of my favorites so far (I already own 4 complete seasons).

Now, to end with this:
WHY SOULD I BUY THIS?: Because you want to see the ending and you don't own the 10th season. Because you want to watch the extended version of the finale, which has about 3 minutes with extra scenes (they're so funny). Because you want to watch the first episode, which is very good. Because you're just a collector who owns every single "Friends" item there is.

WHY SOULDN'T I BUY THIS: Because you own the 1st and 10th season. Because you don't care about the 3 extra minutes in the extended version of the finale. Because the 3 episodes it includes don't worth the money. Because it's boring to watch the intro videos and the music video.

======

I really like this DVD and I gave it 4 stars because of the extended finale and the first episode. I didn't give it 5 stars because it doesn't include almost any interesting bonus features.

Now I just told you the pros and cons I could find, you make the decision. Bye.

Warner television should have discontinue this title after releasing Season 10 which they didn't. although this Item had been in sale for a long period on amazon.com, but buying this even for 6 dollars is totallt waste of money cause all the stuff are available on season 10!
It could be worth if it was a real limited or collectors ediotion, packed with some extra stuff such as slip cover, collectible booklet, journal or something like that. but it was so far not a limited edition though. It had even no insert card! I can see this brilliant LIMITED EDITION! I think there is over a billion copies that they beg people to buy it in lowest price possible and still they have copies to sell!

I was never a big watcher of Friends,but I did watch the finale. It was wonderful,so I bought the finale on DVD. I adored it. The sound and video are good. The special features are out of this world. First of all,you get the Pilot. I mean,come on now,that is super good! And then,10 years of the opening credits. Again,funny & brilliant!
The plot really ends the show. Maybe for some people,too many twists & turns,but for me,great. I never really watched the final season or the actual show for that matter,but I saw the finale and the Pilot. In my opinion,those are the two most important episodes of any series to watch! So,I am not upset about my release at all.
Anyways,for you fans who take notes,Monica & Chandler have a baby. Well,a woman named Erica has the baby!
An abortion on Friends! Is the show coming to an end? Yes,Virginia,I'm afraid that it is.
Ross & Rachel do "it" and then at the end,share a romantic kiss.
I think how it shows the empty apartment at the end of the show (episode) is kinda dumb,but that's the only complaint about the entire episode.
But,again,there is another complaint:a music video of the theme song is another special feature. It is boring and not that entertaining. Well,maybe. But,not to me!
It was pretty cheap when I bought it too (I got it at Wal-Mart). But,anyhoo,overall,I toast the Friends creators & writers for that episode (who are the same people).
Olay! If only they removed that stupid music video!

Friends is a truly great TV series. Few others have lasted so long and stayed so good. However, when looking at this particular DVD, I wonder why it was released? The simple fact is, there's no point to buy a DVD of 3 episodes, all of which are out on Boxsets for reasonable prices. Sure, this is budget, but when it comes right down to it, even the ~$10 (with shipping included) is not worth it. Do yourself a favor, and unless you're a serious collector who wants this in addition, just buy the 10th season boxset.

I love "Friends." I love them all. However, I'm not really satisfied with the ending of their story.

It seems that they end it up because they have to: Rachel and Ross get together; Monica and Chandler finally have their babies...etc. Those are too predictable!

I always expect something new and impressive, which will make the whole story unforgettable -- but, I don't see that in the finale. Disappointing. That's why I didn't buy this DVD.

If you feel the similar way as I do, then don't buy it. But if you are really a Friends fan so much crazy about collecting every "Friends" DVD, well, it's still a good one to think about. Anyway, it's another New York City fairy tell in the 21st century.

I love the final episode of Friends. Just watching it you get caught up in the emotions...its like you're there yourself!

That is the perfect DVD. The most interesting that you can compare the first and the last episode. But be honest there no real difference between TV broadcast version and original episode. Good music clip and begining of all 10 seasons. I think if you want to have this DVD you can, but I will wait for all 10 seasons in one box.

I love Friends and love that everything Friends is on DVD. This DVD claims to be the only place the "broadcast" version of the finale will be available. Yet, it is listed on The Complete Tenth Season DVD. Can it really be any different there? This seems like a waste of money to me.

i love friends, i wish it was still on air....i grew up with the cast of friends and i felt like i was apart of there life as stupid as that may sound...i couldnt have thought of a better way to end the show....i cryed so hard...you've got to buy this movie its worth every cent

The finale for Friends was a lot of fun, an episode worth watching again. The DVD is a great way to do that, having both the tv and extended versions on the disc. Highly recommend for the avid Friends fan who either doesn't want to pay or wait for season 10 of Friends.

It was like all the epasoids but this time it was dramatic and sad. The last epasoid still had it's same FRIENDS ring to it though. I loved it. I'm also very glad that Monica finally got her baby. One correction though was that I thought Pheobe should have been pregnet.

I really loved the finale. What a nice ending for this wonderful sitcom, was Friends. Wish all of you to buy it also, can't miss that one.

This show is extreamly funny, I recommend buying this item, I liked the extended final version.

I have been always so lucky to find good products with the lowest price, frist my patient and my trust on amazon. [...] buyin this item, good quality,,, new brand, low price.

I think the Finale was great. I hated to see Freinds end, but a guess they went on to better things. I have every season, but 10, and I think every one of them were great. They are amazing actors.

This show is funny and stupid, gets boring sometimes, also has romantic moments. Overall it is a comedy about six friends trying to cope with life. The six of them are extremely dull, unintelligent, promiscuous, superficial and cute. The women are slutty and the men are stupid. You would think that in the period of ten years they will mature into adults but they are the same way at 35 as they were at 25 and possibly at 15. Overall it is a laid back comedy that relaxes the mind, but this is not an example of high moral standards, digmity and respect for one's self and others. In the entire series Rachel, Monica and Phoebe slept with about 50 men each. Ross, Chandler and Joey ran after every skirt and enjoyed the stupid pranks kids pulled in junior high.

I can't believe this is it, friends is finally over!!! Everyone who came to know and love friends, and has become addicted to it know what I mean. Every episode has been a pleasure to watch, with the great characters great plots and loads of laughs! I have watched the finale it was slightly dissappointing but not enough that I could give it less than five stars! Ross and Rachel,who keep going on and off with eachother I thought would finally cut the line after Joey and Rachel started dating, that was sort of weird for me because I never pictured them together, which is hard to believe because who can't you picture Joey with?? But they broke it up and Ross runs after Rachel and yet again they fall in love! I always pictured Joey and Phoebe as great partners for eachother but i guess it didn't happen, for those of you who have just fallen under Friends spell and don't know how the characters are well...
Monica Geller-Bing: Kind of a neat freak once a 210 pound year old but lost a lot of weight, is the sister of Ross Geller, and is a chef!
Joey Tribioni: is the guy who always gets the girls with his charm and big heart, who has adopted a chick and a duck. Joey you can call him adorable and cute but you can't call him innocent! He is slightly clueless, but we love him the most he's the funniest guy who has great personality and an even greater hunger! He is a soap actor.
Chandler Bing: Is married to Monica Bing and is always ready with his wit with a hint of sarcasm, as everyone knows he is still hung up over his parents divorce. His best bud is Ross but he's been living with Joey for quite awhile until he decided to move in with monica. He's the guy who does something with computers and a wenis.
Phoebe Buffay (however you spell it): yep she's a tough girl who was on the streets at thirteen because her mother committed suicide, she has an identical twin sister who is perceived as way hotter than Phoebe but she's even more clueless they are the only family eachother has yet they do not communicate at all. This guitar loving, and like joey slightly clueless, sweet girl will knock you out if you get her angry. Phoebe is a masoose.
Rachel Green: Aah Rachel the divine and guy magnet! She is living it up in the real world paying actual bills and doing actual things, she loves her new independence, sure she's not in with the fich crowd anymore, and ran away from a wedding with a guy that could make all her dreams come true, named Barry but she wanted true love, will she every find it? Rachel has a child named Emma, Ross is the father, and has on and off relationships with Ross. Rachel has had quite a few jobs.
Dr. Ross Geller: Ross is the guy who is too smart and too obsessed with his work as either paleontologist, a writer (of the book in the one with the library book) Museum exhibitor or professor to not be dorky. Sometimes he does have a dorky charm but most of the time he manages to screw it up whether it's flirting, trying to be a strong man, or just plain being to engrossed in talking about science. But he has plenty of cash on hand to get a date once in a while. There is so mcu about Ross he keeps getting divorced, once to a lesbian might I add! and making women pregnant (not on purpose of course)

Say farewell to friends, but don't weep for them because they will be in our hearts and minds, but most of all they will live on as reruns on tbs.

I recomend it. However, it was not done very well. i think the directors just wanted the show to finish and did a poor job at tying everything up. Ross and rachel finally get together, but it didnt do it very well. i think people had waited so long and expected so much that it was nearly imposible to live up.

This was pretty good but only one episode...!!!!!!
Dont waist your time buying this just wait for the 10th season box set. When will that come out anyway...!!!!!!

EPISODE:
This was a good episode of Friends. Though it was funny, it wasn't anything special. It was just like a regular episode. If you are a fan of the show, you will like this episode.

DVD:
This dvd is dissapointing. There is no point is buying just one episode. Just wait for the 10th season dvd.

Friends was always a favorite to anybody who watched it. It's really too bad that it had to come to an end. I've been watching it for the past few years and it was sad to see it go. This is a great DVD to have, because it has the extended versions of the pilot episode and "The Last One". Hopefully, they will have a reunion of friends someday soon. Until then, this DVD is a wonderful thing to own, with the two best episodes of our favorite friends ever filmed.

woooooooooooowwwwwwwww its FRIENDS its gooooood every1 loves friends so buy buy buy buy it come on its brilliant

F*R*I*E*N*D*S was truly (and still is) the best show ever to air on TV. The finale is definitely worth buying, b/c you can watch The Last One over and over again, laughing and crying along with the cast!! [...]

What can I say....just dont bother with this DVD...it has NO good stuff n it...it will be better worth while buying Season 10 box set

I loved this show. I watched it from the very beginning episode to the very last episode. I was 14 when this show came out so some of the raw humor that was used was over my head, but I still found the show to be great. As I got older I felt like I was "growing up" with the members of the cast. I could relate to all of them in some way. Rachel and her spoiled ways, Ross and his sensitive, witty attitute, Monica being the neat freak, Chandler using humor as a defense mechanism, Phoebe and her ability to make anything funny, and Joey and his loveable nature. I felt like I was in all of those roles at one point in my life. This show helped me realize that what I was facing was normal and I was not alone. Thank you so much to David Krane, and Marta Kaufman you two are great! As for saying goodbye....Goodbye Ross, Rach, Pheebs, Joey, Chandler, and Mon.......you were all great! Thanks for ten great years!

I LOVED the end of friends. I mean alright, it wasn't as exciting as everyone was expecting it to be. But would it have been satisfying if it was? The way Friends ended shows us that Friends will never end, it keeps going on. The last episode was just our last peek at Monica, Chandler, Ross, Rachel, Phoebe, Joey and even Mike's lives- which continue. And the things that most viewers were waiting for finally happened- Ross and Rachel got back together, Monica and Chandler got their babies, Phoebe found her true love and Joey.... well, Joey went on being Joey. We wouldn't like him any other way.

It was a very clever ending- one that made us all cry, but made us laugh. The last scene with the keys for the apartment being left on the counter was bittersweet, leaving us torn but satisfied with how the whole thing had ended. All of us will remember friends- no one's ever going to forget it. Each of us will cherish a certain character in our hearts and love the others, and remember them- each of us will carry hundreds of memories, both happy and sad ones, and use them to relate to our own lives. And when we're stepping out onto a runway, perhaps after returning from vacation, or arriving to a destination on a business trip, we will never hesitate to remember that line- "I got off the Plane."

whats going on?
why did Phoebe Marry Mike?
What about Joey?
how did Joey and Rachel, break up again?
What were Ross & Rachel doin" sleeping together?
whats wrong with monice's uterus?
WHATS GOING ON?????????
All of the season of friends were great. untill this, season 10!
i have to say, i loved season 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9,....but 10 was disappointing.
and really stupid.!!!
Mr. Crane and Ms. Kauffmen, i'm really disappointed.
if u guys ever visit amazon.com.....plz think of what u did.
thank you.
i do not dislike u, or the other seasons of friends...i am disapointed of season 10.

This was a great show why did it have to end?!But about the dvd it was good.But the end was a little bit strange.Nothing special happened .Theres nothing to say ,how can i rate the best tv series in the history of TV comedy below 5stars.

It was a nice thought. Offer the finale days after it airs on television, and put two versions on the DVD. The broadcast version, and an extended version. But then to tack on the same music video and pilot that is available on Season 1's DVD, and to offer a montage of opening credits is somewhat disappointing. The finale could have included some inkling of a "goodbye": promos, a cast interview, the "ten years" special that aired on NBC? Perhaps on the season 10 DVD we can look forward to such things.

However, this is a great episode. Having watched this show for 10 years, I felt it takes each of the character's stories full circle. All the relationships are resolved, the children born. Everything ending on a bittersweet, yet complete note.

This was the perfect end to the perfect series. I think we all can take with us a piece of each character with us. Nothing can take it's place. Friends will always be the number one series and I think the fact it lasted 10 years proves it. I definately plan on saving all 10 seasons for my kids to watch.
