The story so far
Everything you need before watchingThe haircut lands on every magazine, the theme song hits the radio, and Rolling Stone puts a sitcom on the cover. The creators hear it in the car and realize this is not an average show. Then fans from Jordan to India take over: they learned English from it, proposed the way Monica did, and sat through lonely nights with the same six people. Watch how a magazine crush becomes the thing someone came home to.

Golden lines
A great line in its own right — why and how to use it“that was like, "Wow, this is not your average television show."”
当时就想:「哇,这可不是普通电视剧。」
not your average 把惊讶收成一句能带走的评价。
This is not your average + 名词
夸某事远超同类、不是平常货时。
This is no ordinary show. / That's a cut above the rest.
informal
Wow 上扬,average 拉长,show 下落。
“-And "Friends" was what I came home to.”
而《老友记》就是我回家要看的东西。
came home to 把一部剧说成门口等你的人。
X was what I came home to
讲某样东西成了你回家的安慰或仪式。
That album was waiting for me at home. / I came back to that same show every night.
literary
Friends 轻顿,came home to 连读下落。
“They were my friends since I didn't really have any.”
他们就是我的朋友,因为我其实没有朋友。
剧名和真人一语双关,后半句把热闹拆成空。
They were my X since I didn't have any
承认某段虚构陪伴补上了真实空缺时。
Those books kept me company when nobody else did. / The chat felt like family because I had none nearby.
literary
friends 先咬住,since 后放轻,any 收短。
Monologue
One character carrying the scene — shadow the whole passage-I was battling depression. I was at a very dark place. One week, I wouldn't go out. The need to even eat was a problem. I wouldn't eat.
-我当时在和抑郁症搏斗。 我处在非常黑暗的地方。 有整整一周我都不出门。 连吃东西的念头都成了问题。 我吃不下去。
-I was a gay man who wanted to have hair like Jennifer Aniston. So you can imagine how lonely I sometimes felt. -And "Friends" was what I came home to. "Friends" was... They were my friends since I didn't really have any. And, um...I can't.
-我是个想留珍妮弗·安妮斯顿那种发型的男同性恋。 所以你可以想象我有时有多孤单。 -而《老友记》就是我回家要看的东西。 《老友记》是…… 他们就是我的朋友,因为我其实没有朋友。 而且,嗯……我说不下去了。
