The American situation comedy television series Friends was created by David Crane and Marta Kauffman, and produced by Bright/Kauffman/Crane Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television for NBC (National Broadcasting Company). The series began with the pilot episode, which was broadcast on September 22, 1994; the series finished its ten-year run on May 6, 2004, with 236 episodes. Each episode excluding the series premiere and finale has a title which starts with "The One...". They are, on average 22 minutes long, for a 30-minute timeslot including commercial breaks. Several episodes in season seven were produced for a "super-size" 40-minute timeslot to compete with the CBS reality series Survivor.
The series narrative follows six friends living and working in New York City: Rachel Green, Monica Geller, Phoebe Buffay, Joey Tribbiani, Chandler Bing and Ross Geller, played by Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer respectively. All episodes were filmed at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California; no location filming was done specifically in New York. The fourth season finale, "The One with Ross's Wedding", however was filmed on location in London, England in front of a British studio audience.
In addition to the episodes, three specials were produced. In Friends: The Stuff You've Never Seen, broadcast following "The One with Joey's New Brain" on February 15, 2001, Conan O'Brien hosted a light-hearted discussion with the main cast on the Central Perk set – the fictional coffee house which featured prominently in the series. The special introduced outtakes from past episodes. The two-part retrospective special The One with All the Other Ones was broadcast before the one-hour series finale "The Last One" on May 6, 2004, and features clips from past episodes and interviews with the cast. All episodes have been released on DVD.
