Book Description
Friends Challenging Trivia: Channel Your Inner Unagi is authored by a sitcom expert who penned the greatest trivia quiz books on the most popular television sitcoms (e.g., Seinfeld Trivia: Everything About Nothing, The Big Bang Theory Challenging Trivia, Modern Family Challenging Trivia: Early Years, and Cheers Trivia: It’s a Little Known Fact...). His latest effort, Friends Trivia, is the best source for accurate and well-written trivia questions about the top-rated sitcom during its decade of dominance from 1994 to 2004. Friends Trivia is the perfect book for every type of fan, whether occasional viewer or rabid enthusiast. There are 500 questions with varying degrees of difficulty within each chapter. The reader will encounter easy and moderate queries in addition to some challenging and genuine head-scratching brainteasers. Unlike most trivia books that have measly one-word answers, Friends Trivia provides expanded descriptions containing anecdotes, humorous dialogue, or bonus fun facts to further enhance the reading experience, making it more enjoyable and entertaining. In addition, scattered throughout the book are random text boxes featuring insider secrets about the show, its creators, the actors, and other contributors to the series. These entertaining morsels supplement the question-answer format with fascinating fun facts to give the reader the full Friends experience. Friends Trivia contains more information than any other trivia quiz book written on the subject, and the author's ingenious presentation has revolutionized the trivia quiz format, an unprecedented feat in publishing history. The book commences with general information about the show and its history, as well as noteworthy facts and intriguing trivia guaranteed to educate and enthrall the reader. The next section covers some of the unique and interesting sets, such as Central Perk and Monica's apartment, and iconic props used in the series like Joey's magna doodle, the orange couch, and the picture frame around the peephole. The third chapter covers the most memorable moments in the show which pertain to multiple friends or the entire gang. The questions address broader episode plots and character storylines. The next six sections cover specific information directly associated with each main character—Chandler, Joey, Monica, Phoebe, Rachel and Ross—highlighting the most uproarious scenes and unforgettable episodes while testing the viewer’s attention to detail. The final two sections address guest stars and recurring characters. Friends was known for signing big-name movie and television stars as well as developing some of the most unique and fascinating recurring characters in sitcom history. Thus, two chapters are specifically devoted to these illustrious scene-stealers. The show's vast guest star list featured well-known thespians, such as Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Bruce Willis, Brooke Shields, Ben Stiller, Danny DeVito, Sean Penn, Winona Ryder, Christina Applegate, Reese Witherspoon, Jean-Claude Van Damme, George Clooney, Charlie Sheen, and many more. The book concludes by highlighting the most popular recurring characters, namely Mike Hannigan, Janice, Gunther, Frank Jr., Richard Burke, Marcel, Mr. Heckles, Pete Becker, and Ugly Naked Guy, to mention a few. There is something for everyone. Casual watchers and avid fanatics will be equally captivated by this meticulously crafted tome. Friends Trivia is guaranteed to provide hours of entertainment and laughter as the quiz-taker regales in reliving the finest moments of the show. Photos included, 500 questions with answers, 131 pages paperback, available digitally.

Author: Jennifer C. Dunn
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538112744
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
A cultural phenomenon for a decade, Friends ranked in the top ten for every year of its original run, an accomplishment unmatched by any other scripted series. And more than twenty-five years since its theme song promised “I’ll be there for you,” Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler, and Ross are still entertaining audiences around the world. As the characters maneuvered their ways through dating, love, and the occasional conflict, their loyalty to each other remained steadfast. In Friends: A Cultural History, Jennifer C. Dunn explores why the show immediately took hold of viewers and how the series remained must-see TV for so long. Dunn examines the cultural landscape that allowed a show not centered on traditional sitcom norms of family and career to become such a critical and commercial success. The author also addresses how the show’s complicated depictions of gender roles and class distinctions—as well as its lack of ethnic diversity—did not detract from its popularity. In addition to exploring memorable plotlines, cherished moments, and the quirks of the principal players, this book analyzes the show’s enduring cultural relevance. Featuring a discussion of the show’s 25 best episodes, Friends: A Cultural History offers an engaging look at the series that has resonated with generations of television viewers.

The Gift of Time

Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
"Do we have any skeletons in our closet?" That was the question posed to the author's mother-in-law by a niece after receiving a private message through Facebook from a stranger who said, "I think you are my cousin." This led to a shocking phone call on a normal June day, which altered the life of the author. For forty years, Julie had kept a secret from most of the people in her life. A Catholic girl from a good family in the late 1970s, she had become pregnant in her late teens but was not ready to be a mom. With guidance from her parish priest, Julie went away to live in a home for other unwed, pregnant girls and made the difficult decision to give her baby up for adoption. Not for forty years did she know a thing about him--what his name was, what he looked like, where he lived, or what he did for a living. Until that June day in 2018, when he was revealed to be that baby, now a forty-year-old man. Yet she always had faith that her decision was the right one as she placed her son in God's hands. Over the course of two years, this birth mother and biological son get to know each other and enter into each other's lives. There are interesting twists and turns. Had their paths ever crossed? This very personal and honest memoir dives into the heartache, loss, and guilt suffered by the author. You will laugh, and you might cry. Some who have experienced the real story compare it to a beautiful Hallmark movie. In the end, the hole in the author's heart is filled. It is the author's hope that this adoption story can bring peace to others who have endured a similar fate.
