Iconic Sitcom Friends Bids Farewell to Netflix Singapore After October 31

Get ready for a major shakeup in your streaming lineup: the beloved sitcom Friends is set to leave Netflix in Singapore and the Philippines after October 31. This departure echoes its previous exit from Netflix US in January 2020, following the expiration of the licensing agreement.

While fans are left wondering about the show’s next streaming destination, its U.S. availability is currently spread across several platforms, including Max, Apple TV+, Hulu, and Prime Video. What could this mean for viewers in Singapore and beyond? The thirst for Friends is not quenched yet!

Originally airing from 1994 to 2004, Friends has undeniably etched its name in television history as one of the most cherished sitcoms of all time. The series, led by a star-studded cast including Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer, captivated audiences with its humorous take on friendship and relationships in the hustle and bustle of New York City.

The show's legacy has only grown in recent years; it surged in popularity when it hit streaming services, attracting a whole new generation of fans. It became a cultural phenomenon, topping viewership charts in various regions.

In a heartfelt reunion in 2021, the cast gathered for a special titled Friends: The Reunion, where they shared memories and revisited iconic locations from the series. Tragically, this reunion marked Matthew Perry's last on-screen appearance before his untimely death in 2023, adding an emotional layer to the show's history.

So, where can die-hard fans binge-watch their favorite episodes after Friends leaves Netflix? Stay tuned for updates, because this classic series is far from finished captivating audiences!
