Josh Coxx as "Eldad" - in Series 6, episode 19: "The One With Joey's Fridge"

If you are a devotee of Friends, then I urge you not to read my comments on the programme. I do not share your passon for it.

This background piece was nicked from the NBC websitebecause again, I couldn't be bothered writing one of my own.

Starring: Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox Arquette, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer

As its name might suggest, the series focuses on the friendship of three men and three women who frequently gather at each other’s apartments and share sofa space at Greenwich Village’s “Central Perk” coffeehouse. Monica (Cox Arquette) is a chef with an obsession for neatness and order in her life. She is also married to Chandler (Perry), a dry wit who is never at a loss for words.

Across the hall is Chandler’s longtime roommate Joey (LeBlanc), an actor currently on “Days of our Lives” playing a man with a woman’s brain. Sharing his apartment is Rachel (Aniston), Monica’s best friend from high school and former roomie. Rachel works for a fashion designer and is still trying to get by without help from her well-to-do father.

Across the alley from Monica and Chandler is Monica’s hapless brother Ross (Schwimmer), a teacher who has been divorced three times, including once from Rachel following a reckless weekend in Las Vegas. Rounding out the circle of friends is Monica’s ex-roommate, Phoebe Buffay (Kudrow), an offbeat, eternally optimistic folk singer and massage therapist, who gave birth to triplets as a surrogate mother for her half-brother and his wife.

The series was created by the writing team of Marta Kauffman & David Crane. Emmy and CableACE Award-winning producer Kevin S. Bright is executive producer with Kauffman and Crane. Scott Silveri and Shana Goldberg-Meehan also serve as executive producers. “Friends” is a Bright/Kauffman/Crane Production in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Rant

I'm not in a position to comment at length upon this guest appearance, principally because I *loathe* Friends, and shall forever regard Channel 4 as cultural traitors for introducing this televised bowel disorder to the United Kingdom. Second only in repulsiveness to Ally McBeal, Friends is desperately unfunny, and features a cast of characters I would gladly commit suicide to avoid. Learning that Josh Coxx had appeared in an episode, and that I would therefore be compelled sit down and record it, was a less than pleasant revelation, and I'm pained, although not entirely surprised to report that not even Josh's presence can elevate Friends into something that's actually watchable. The compensation is that Josh appears throughout his all too brief scene, clad in an exeedingly attractive leather jacket, although the effect is somewhat diminished by virtually every shot of him containing Jennifer Bloody Aniston as well.
