Always there for you, the hit sitcom 'Friends' has matured and blossomed over the years.

The beginning of the sixth series finds the sextet back from Las Vegas where Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) managed to get married in a state of pronounced intoxication, thus upstaging the intended nuptials of Chandler (Matthew Perry) and Monica (Courteney Cox). The first half of the season follows Ross' failure to arrange the annulment, while Monica and Chandler move in together and Rachel sets up house with Phoebe. Joey gets a shapely new roommate in the shape of Elle Macpherson. Halfway through the series, we are given a wonderful fantasy peak at a parallel universe where Rachel married Barry after all, Ross' wife Carol never realized she was gay, Monica is still fat, Chandler is a writer, Joey is starring as Dr. Drake Remoray on Days of Our Lives and Phoebe is a stockbroker. The closing arc of the series features a guest appearance from Bruce Willis in two episodes as the father of Ross' new girlfriend Elizabeth - who ends up romancing Rachel.
