This is interesting.

During the first season of the show, each cast member earned $22,500 per episode.

Dont remember how many episodes were in the first season, but roughly $400K for a season one show? Thats not bad money.

18. Reportedly, Christina Applegate was cast as Amy Green for the Season 9 Thanksgiving episode after Reese Witherspoon was unavailable to reprise her role as Jill Green
Also, RW's people must have gotten ahold of the shows balls because in the episode in which she appears, when Rachel is telling her she's dressed slutty, RW says "this is your dress." Rachel says "I know. I'm a slut." to which RW responds "me too." The "me too" has been removed from re-runs.

Gosh she was terrible. If it was a show geared towards young teenagers it'd be different, but her schtick just didn't really jive with the rest of the characters IMO.

Two soundtracks were released after the show ended: Friends, The One with All the Party Music EP (2004) and Friends: The Ultimate Soundtrack (2005).

This is false, and I have a CSB about it. When I was like 5 or 6 (around '95), my mom worked for First NBC which was in the now Capital One building on St. Charles in downtown NOLA. B97 was in the same building (before it was top 40). My mom took my brother and I there to meet the DJs, and they gave us a bunch of free shite (and an on-air shout out!), including the Friends' soundtrack, and No Doubt's Tragic Kingdom.

ETA: Found the link on Amazon LINK

Original Release Date: September 26, 1995


ETA 2: Read the fact wrong. Didn't see that the were only talking about the 2 released after the show ended. My CSB still stands, though.

Pretty interesting. Great show at the time but IMO hasn't aged well and seems pretty dated now.

I'd love to find out what the deal was with Aniston's nipples. They added a great aspect to the show.

Oh I know that, but $400K for a show thats unproven and brand new is not exactly chump change either.

True. Hollywood minimum wage is pretty damn good, but considering the fact that they never know when or if they'll work again, it usually has to be stretched out for a long time.

Hence the old Hollywood expression, reserved for bad actors, "save your money."
