-nods- I am hoping that things that were left unsaid, will be said in Joey. For instance, I was really wondering why they didn't give Joey a 'out' to move to LA, so I presume the first epi will start in "New York". I had expected him to get a call saying he got a job that needed him to move.

In fact, back when they first said that a star was in talks for a spinoff, with no confirmation who, my first thought was, "It's got to be Joey. He's an actor, he can move to a new location, and it'd make the most sense".

So, I was bumed they didn't go into his departure at all. And I was bumed that they went into nothing at all for Pheobe and Mike. Oh, ok, except he wants a kid, and she wants lots.

Overall, the show focused on just the two pairs- Chan/Mon, and Ross/Rach. I felt the other two "friends" got left out a lot. And I guess when I look back, that's been happening more and more in the past few seasons. But still, I'd have liked more to have happened with those two for the finale, at the very least.

It made me realize that shows like ER and Will & Grace might not see such a send off.

I was surprised it was broadcast at Times Square with other mini parties everywhere.

Seinfeld & Friends are the only two major shows in recent memory with such hoopla. Frasier just faded away, alas.
