SceneIt! Friends edition

I don't know how many years we've had this game, but we had literally never played it until now. Like, we actually peeled shrink-wrap off the box in order to play. I'm not sure why we'd left it so long, since we all love Friends. (I mean, doesn't everyone?) 

Obviously a trivia game about a TV show would not be very fun for someone who has never seen that show, or someone who doesn't like that show (if such a person exists). But for those who know and love a TV show, a trivia game about it sounds like a great idea. The only problem here is that the thing that makes this game the most unique (you play on your TV, using a DVD, which is fun because the game includes video clips from the show) is also probably the worst thing about it, because the transitions bog it down and make it feel more slow-paced than it should. 

Verdict: Finn enjoyed this game the most, and didn't want to stop playing. Sam enjoyed it less, but still had fun. Will we ever play it again? I don't know. We have a totally separate Friends trivia game that is played using cards only, and I would probably reach for that first.

I won, by the way. My cousin Lori would not be surprised.
