"With a Little Help From My Friends" is a song written by the Beatles (and expertly covered by Joe Cocker) and it could easily be the subtitle for the thirty minute comedy, "Friends". In 1994, the idea was created for "Friends": a show about six friends in New York as they navigate their way through life and learn to grow up as they approach the third decade of their life. Produced by Bright/Kauffman/Crane Productions, in association with Warner Bros. Television, the Friends TV show was started in November 1993. The series was filmed at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California in front of a live audience and was aired on May 6, 2004 for the first time with a viewer ship of 52.5 million Americans. The Friends first season started off with six main characters namely -
Jennifer Aniston as Rachel Green
Courteney Cox as Monica Geller-Bing
Matthew Perry as Chandler Bing
Matt LeBlanc as Joey Tribbiani
Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe Buffay-Hannigan
David Schwimmer as Ross Geller
