just saw an advert on telly for this christmas item:

scene it – “friends” edition

scene it

“It’s the ultimate Friends trivia game with clips from your favorite episodes! From foosball matches and Central Perk to Marcel and Smelly Cat, you’ll find all of your favorite Friends moments in Scene It? Friends Edition. It includes real show clips, trivia questions, and on-screen puzzlers from ALL TEN seasons! So how well do you really know Rachel, Ross, Chandler, Monica, Phoebe and Joey? You’re about to find out!”

considering that “friends” is on here 4 times a day, every day, (more often on weekends), i predict wildfire sales of this game. the show has been off the air for years, yet brits still watch it every. single. day. the u.k. is a “scene it” marketeers wet dream. it’ll be the christmas toy craze taking the nation by storm. just you watch.

and i’m just sour grapes because i didn’t think of it first.

    this game might do better with a targeted show like this. My beau got the “original” Scene It as an astonishingly underwhelming 30th bday gift from a close family member and, although we did play it once, Scene It kind of has a bad rep in our house.
