Generation Friends: An Inside Look at the Show That Defined a Television Era by Saul Austerlitz

4.0

This book was funny and interesting for a Friends fan! It contains a lot of facts about Friends from the creation to after its 10 year run. My one complaint is that it doesn’t contain pictures! Here are three things I didn’t know about friends and found out from this book: the costume designer Debra McGuire along with Marta Kauffman lit Shabbat candles on the set. When Ross said Rachel instead of Emily at their wedding, this came from a flub David Schwimmer actually made while running a line (he said “Rachel, the taxi’s here” instead of Emily). And when Ross’s ex-wife married a woman, a real life gay rights advocate played the officiant at their wedding. This book would make a great holiday gift for a Friends fan!
