IF I'm being honest, there used to be a time, in the days when I shared a flat, that I wanted to be like Chandler from Friends.

Not Joey, the good-looking womaniser.

Chandler would have done.

That was the sort of (sad) influence Friends had on me. But that's in the past.

Friends has steadily gone down hill. The dead horse has been well and truly flogged

I was hoping the new series might make me think differently but it's only enforced my view. It's turning into a showcase for those that don't really need the work -- star appearances from the likes of Brad Pitt. Need I say more?

And the plots are getting thinner and less funny, like the Rachel pregnancy line.

Watch out for the worst TV 'bump' to-date, by the way. It's a shame such a once great show is dying on its feet. I just don't want Chandler and co to be there for me any more.

I'M glad Tim was evicted from Big Brother. The chest-shaving ginger-whinger deserved every single boo he got.
