Titled “The Last One,” the “Friends” series finale closed a modern-day Golden Age of comedy TV — and marked the end of the NBC’s “Must-See TV” era. At the time, the final “Friends” was the most-watched entertainment telecast in six years, and it has never been surpassed. A finale that stayed true to the series, the “Friends” closer was well-liked by fans and concluded with slow pan across Monica and Chandler’s empty apartment.

Gunther: Rachel?
Rachel: Yeah?

Gunther: I… I don’t know if that changes your plans at all, but I thought you should know.
Rachel: Gunther… Oh… I love you too. Probably not in the same way, but I do. And, and when I’m in a cafĂ©, having coffee, or I see a man with hair brighter than the sun, I’ll think of you. Aw.
