The mythical American production left us a huge vacuum when it closed in 2004.
Very few human beings on planet Earth do not know or have not heard of "Friends", the most mythical television series. One of the biggest productions in the history that was on antenna From 1994 to 2004, A whole decade of laughter. But many will have wondered, why did it end when I had best and most audience? Well, we are going to answer it throughout this post, but first we will highlight a human aspect that is repeated again and again.
It is about Curious increase in the audience In low hours and even the multiplication of it once it closes. A very clear example we have in ‘Futurama’, Matt Groening's animated animated series had to several times the closure due to lack of audience and over the years has become a classic that continues to generate money by hiring its seasons. No one understands how he can now have more public than before. In short, the things of the human being.
In the case of Friends, the phenomenon is different because in the Tenth season registered large levels of audience but the project became unsustainable, forcing us to say goodbye to Monica and Ross Geller, Chandler Bing, Phoebe Buffay, Joey Tribbiani and Rachel Green. This unsustainability is explained in the philosophy of contracts that the series with NBC maintained, so that the agreements with the actors were done jointly. This caused that, due to the popularity and pressures of the actors themselves, each of the six protagonists took a million dollars per episode of "Friends ".
In the case of Courtey Cox, Lisa Kudrow and Jennifer Aniston They became the best paid actresses on TV. To this expense we had to add the production, realization and other components that made up the famous franchise. On the other hand, both Jennifer Aniston, David Crane or Marta Kauffman, declared that they would not know if they would be able to take the ninth and tenth season forward, they felt a bit "tired" of squeezing their character so much. And even the creators themselves agreed with them that everything was already said by "Friends" and decided to retire on time from the small screen.
