How will the networks air the reruns of the 40 minute friends epiosdes. NBC really screwed us over. I didn't see all of them, because I was flipping back and forth between Survivor because Friends was getting lame. But, can TBS air these episodes at all?

Actually, they were 45 minutes episodes and they will do the same thing they do to the hour long shows, they'll re-edit them and send them out into syndication.. along with the same thing with TBS Superstation, TBS has awhile to go before they'll air this past season episodes, TBS will start with the pilot this fall when they add Friends to their lineup.

Well does that mean they'yll make them shorter or longer? I think they'll add a bunch of commercials and maybe put the closing credits scenes as part of the show, before the credits.

I heard they'll never show those missing minutes again on network television, including the blooper episode. Maybe they'll be on the DVD though.

Yea, I think it was the interview with Leno or Dave when Jennifer Aniston said that the episodes would be shortened for re-runs. And the way I understood it, she said the blooper episode will not be shown again, in fact, it will be put in a vault for their ten year reunion or something. (Not a reunion episode but just a party for the cast or something, what ever they do) So, unless they change their minds, we won't see it again. Hope you got it on tape!
I don't think the blooper episode is not on the current DVD but maybe they will release a new one sometime that will include it.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I heard they may even separate the 40 and 45 minute episodes to two part episodes and add them with unaired footage and outtakes.
