New York, Friends Central

New York is the city where Friends is set, but it isn't recorded there. There aren't many scenes that actually take place in New York, and there aren't filmed any scenes in New York. However, a lot of the exterior building shots were filmed in New York. It is also the largest city in America. New York is also the place where celebrities such as Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise and Robert De Niro were born. There are shots of New York seen in between the majority of clips, mostly showing New York landmarks
