Chandler Dies & Returns as a Ghost in Brilliant 'Friends' Mashup
Could this *be* more eerily perfect?
Just in time for Halloween, a creative "Friends" fan conjured a 16-minute mashup called "The One Where Chandler Dies...," imagining an episode where Chandler Bing (Matthew Perry) dies in an accident with an ice cream truck, then comes back as a glowing green ghost the other friends can't see. It's funny, creepy, strangely moving, and amazingly clever.
Check it out:
Well done, er, "Dogfood"! That's the name of the YouTuber who posted the video, adding this description to reveal the impressive amount of work it took:
"A loving mashup offering an alternate ending to Friends that's at once very bleak, but also existential, spooky and uplifting Originally envisioned at a 90-seconds max. duration, the final cut is just 6 minutes shy of the standard 22-min episode length, contains around 125 FX shots and parts of around 125 episodes of the 236 made."
NBC should seriously make a deal with this YouTuber and air an extended version of the mashup as a special Halloween episode. "Friends" fans are always begging for a reunion episode ... well, here you go! (And it's slightly less depressing than the fan fiction that "Friends" was all in Phoebe's mind.)
