I've been watching them on DVD again, for the first time in 18 months or so. This seems to be the right interval, as the episodes are no longer quite as fresh in the mind.
They still have the same feel-good factor as they always did, though. :)
PS, are there any of the old regulars, besides myself, still lurking here? Our old friend Ouroboros posted on uk.media.tv.misc a few days back, BTW.
I watch the episodes that C4 and E4 show. It drives me mad that they don't show them in any particular order.

Even after all these years, I still occasionally notice new things.
For example, I was watching 'TOW All The Thanksgivings' yesterday - and noticed that teenaged fat Monica was drinking diet coke. Given that she didn't care about her weight, why drink *diet* coke?
All part of the joke. We've all seen the fat girls in the newsagent who buy four Mars bars and a can of Diet Coke!
There are an awful lot of continuity errors involved with Fat Monica. The very first time we see her is on the video of her prom night. Chandler is astonished to see Monica as fat as she was. Monica says "The camera adds ten pounds" and Chandler responds with "How many cameras are *on* you?"
Yet in flashback scenes in later episdoes we see that Chandler knew the Gellers very well and had even met Rachel.
Likewise with Joey. In the final season we found out that JOEY DOESN'T SHARE FOOD!!!! Since when? And how come, after ten or more years of aquaintance, the other characters didn't know that?

Those aren't errors, it's retroactive continuity. :)

Not enough to actually diet though, until she overheard Chandler call her fat.

C4 are all over the place. E4 keep strict order. As soon as Season 10 ends, the next day they have Season 1 Ep 1 and so it goes. Takes around 6 months to show the whole thing. If you want to start from the beginning, Season 1 will be coming round again about early May

Right... I can't afford to replace perfectly good Friends DVD's, but I *can* afford a new TV? :)

You can get a very nice 32" LCD *plus* a decent upscaling PVR for �600.

Next question - what's the best place to get �600... :)

Though as you may have noticed, the latest addition to my list has been Katherine Jenkins - classical singer & gorgeous babe!

Only in my head - though there *are* some very good ones of her around :

She can really fill out a dress!
Also, she has a very sweet & modest personality, which IMO increases her appeal considerably.
