《老友記》六人22年后合體拍特輯

The cast of the hit sitcom Friends are to reunite for a two-hour special, according to US broadcaster NBC.
美國全國廣播公司（NBC）發(fā)消息稱，著名情景喜劇《老友記》的主演們將重新聚首，參與錄制兩小時(shí)的特別節(jié)目。

The actors behind Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler and Ross have all signed up for the special, a tribute to director James Burrows.
瑞秋、莫妮卡、菲比、喬伊、錢德勒和羅斯的扮演者們都已確定將出演這一致敬導(dǎo)演詹姆斯·伯羅斯的特輯。

Burrows helmed numerous episodes of the program and has just celebrated directing his 1,000th TV program.
伯羅斯執(zhí)導(dǎo)過不少《老友記》劇集，而此次特別節(jié)目是為了慶祝伯羅斯執(zhí)導(dǎo)第1000集美劇而籌劃。

But NBC entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt suggested the six Friends may not appear together.
不過NBC娛樂部主席羅伯特·格林布拉特暗示，六位“老友”可能不會(huì)同時(shí)出現(xiàn)。

"I'm hoping all six will be in same room at the same time," he told reporters. But he added: "I'm not sure we logistically can pull it off."
他告訴記者：“我當(dāng)然希望他們六人能同時(shí)出現(xiàn)在一個(gè)房間內(nèi)。”但他補(bǔ)充道：“我不敢保證在具體安排時(shí)一定能辦得到。”

Fans of the show have been hoping for more than a decade to see Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer back on screen together, but previous attempts have fallen short.
十多年了，老友粉們一直盼著珍妮佛·安妮斯頓、柯特妮·考克斯、麗莎·庫卓、馬特·勒布朗、馬修·派瑞和大衛(wèi)·修蒙能再次聚首熒屏，但以前的嘗試都未成功。

The program ended in 2004, 10 series and a decade after it premiered on US screens. It made international stars of its little-known cast, winning a slew of awards and a huge audience in the process.
《老友記》2004年播完第十季后劇終，彼時(shí)距該劇初登美國熒屏已有10年。此前鮮有人知的劇中演員后來都成了國際巨星。在此過程中，該劇也收獲了無數(shù)獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)，俘獲了一眾粉絲。

As well as Friends, Burrows was behind the camera for several of America's much-loved sitcoms, including Cheers, Frasier, and The Bob Newhart Show.
除了《老友記》，伯羅斯還拍過不少其它深受觀眾喜愛的美國情景劇，比如《歡樂酒店》、《歡樂一家親》、《鮑勃紐哈特秀》等。

The special is scheduled to be broadcast on 21 February on NBC.
