The service had hinted the show’s arrival was imminent a few days earlier when a tweet was posted reading: “The One with the Show Everyone’s Been Asking Us to Add,” which is a play on the structure of the show’s episode titles.

Fans expressed their joy at Friends dropping on New Year’s Day, with one writing: “You can now watch all 10 seasons of friends on Netflix and I couldn’t be happier what a way to start 2018.”

Another wrote: “Two hours into 2018 and it’s already the best year ever. And that might or might not be because Netflix have added Friends.”

Another excited fan said: “Netflix. Friends. 2018. It’s a miracle,” as one more wrote: “FRIENDS being on Netflix has been the best New Years’s gift for me, hands down.”

The show made huge stars out of Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer.
