The story of six friends who spend most of their time in <b>Central Perk cafe<\/b> ransacked our hearts and made it their permanent residence. The intricately mingled life and stories of these six charming friends ruled the tele-world for 10 long years. The last episode of the show was telecast in the year 2004. Even a decade after the sitcoms went off air, Friends is still a much talked about show among TV audience.<\/p>\n<p>The show became so popular that it even sparked the trend of recreating Central Perk Caf\u00e9s in different cities across the world.
