Top 10 ‘Friends’ Facts Every Superfan Must Know



6 6 is better than 4

Although many people don’t realize that Friends was not always the show’s name, it is possible to imagine it differently. Six of One, Insomnia Cafe, and Friends Like Us were all options. The team eventually settled on Friends, which became a classic sitcom. It is hard to believe that other titles were ever considered. Friends are so easy to recognize today because of their name. The original series was intended to feature four friends. This would have created a very different dynamic from what we see today. Although Chandler and Phoebe were still part of the series, they were made to play supporting roles. The writers and creators were impressed by the teamwork and decided to add the two regulars. They are definitely better than four.
