Friends: The Reunion 2021

Really, a missed opportunity. I liked the concept of it, but many things irked me. What was the reason to Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber on this reunion? No offense to them, but they have no relationship with the show. They should have got some of the other people that starred on Friends instead, like Paul Rudd or Cole Sprouse.

Seeing the six protagonists reminisce about the days of the show was very nice and I enjoyed that a lot, even though I didn't particularly like James Corden's contribution to the whole affair. I also really really liked hearing the producers and creators of Friends talk about the behind the scenes, the casting and all that, that was lovely.
But beside those positive aspects, I felt like this reunion was full of filler and unnecessary content. Which is truly a shame, because I'm sure both the actors and the producers would have had enough stories to easily fill a 2 hour runtime or more.

Expected more, but the nostalgia factor barely saves it.

5.5/10
