《老友记》是一部美国电视情景喜剧，从1994年到2004年在全国广播公司首播，持续了十季。

该剧高踞电视季最终收视率的前十名，数以百万计的美国人收看了在2004年5月6日播出的大结局，使其成为电视历史上收看人数第五多的连续剧大结局。

这部情景喜剧的剧情围绕着几位20多岁尚未安定下来的年轻人在纽约的生活故事展开。该剧的演员不仅年轻而有魅力，而且表演起来默契十足。

联合创作人玛塔‧考夫曼表示，作者们逐渐意识到当全体演员一同登场时，《老友记》才能获得最佳效果。比方说，如果一名角色去约会了，约会的场景并不一定需要出现在剧中，因为让她向其他人描述这次约会能够产生更好的效果。

Friends is an American television sitcom that originally aired on NBC in 1994 to 2004, lasting ten seasons. 

The show ranked within the top ten of the final television ratings and the finale on May 6, 2004 was watched by millions of Americans (5th most watched).  The energy of a sitcom about being in New York in your 20s, at loose ends, thrived alongside the chemistry of the show’s young, attractive cast. 

Co-creator Marty Kauffman said the writers came to realize that Friends worked best when the entire ensemble was onstage. If a character went on a date, for instance, that scene didn’t necessarily need to be in the show, since it worked better to have her describing the date to the others.
