So.....I'm the ex-wife and lesbian. Alrighty! I don't care as long as I get a part.

Now....Why am I the ex-wife lesbian?!?

I used to watch friends, sometimes, back when it was on, but I don't know who my character is.
Funny show but they jumped the shark with all the inter-character dating/marriages imo.

I've never heard that expression before.

It's a very common American expression--refers to when a long-running television show officially loses whatever quality it once had and devolves into stupidity. It comes from an episode of Happy Days where Fonzi enters a waterskiing competition and he must jump over a live shark.

DanaC · 07-30-2008, 08:24 PM

Har! wonderful. Thanks for the explanation.

Elspode · 07-30-2008, 08:43 PM

Well, this is the first time I've ever said this...

...I wish I'd ever seen "Friends". At least I'd know who the hell Gunther was.

It was a dolphin.

Cloud · 07-30-2008, 09:04 PM

had to Google Susan.

hmm.

so nice to be included!

although disappointed it wasn't "Cheers"-- so we could all get together for a drink.

There are those who believe the expression "jumped the shark" has, itself, jumped the shark.

Shouldn't this be the Cellar Friends Network?

I wouldn't mind being a sidekick if I got a rigid screening.

I really wanted you and Cloud in the cast...and Susan and Carol are close friends, and I thought of you and Cloud as being buddies. Remember, there are certain aspects that made me think of the people for the characters...I did not expect you all to be just like them.

I picked Chandler's mom because, as played by Morgan Fairchild, is sultry and sexy, like you.

I've seen shows go off worse deep ends, but yeah...some of it got pretty played out towards the end. Early Monica opposed to Later Monica, for example. She got so darn whiny with Chandler. I liked her as the smart-ass sarcastic (hence, me.)

I posted in the Indy Jones thread that many people are now using "Nuking the fridge" as opposed to the shark reference.

Gunther isn't gay...he has a huge crush on Rachel. His laid back attitude made me think of elspode.

Last night (yes I"m a very boring person) I was thinking about this and thought "damn...I need a part for Dana." Then I realized I forgot about Ursula. Ursula for Dana because she's unflappable and calm.

That's interesting. I never heard the expression before.

I used to get tagged as Chandler... pre-heroin.
