5 TV Shows to Watch to Prepare Yourself for American Culture

1)      Friends is a classic TV show about the typical friendship structure amongst most Americans. Phoebe is your classic hippy, peace loving weirdo and is one of the funniest TV characters on TV. Ross is the usual nerdy guy who is desperately in love with the pretty girl. Joey is the typical jock who did not do well in school, and is an unemployed actor. Rachel is the pretty girl who had to start over after a broken engagement, and relies on her looks to move up in the world. Chandler has an extremely sarcastic sense of humor, but deep down is a very sensitive guy. And Monica used to be overweight in high school, and is an attractive up and coming chef. This is one of the great things about America that you can have 6 completely different people become best friends for a lifetime.
