It's almost plagiarism ...

I just saw the "Friends" episode called "The One With the Thumb", in which Monica goes out with a guy called Alan. She introduces him to the rest of the gang, and they all love him

Very interesting. I've seen that friend's episode but never made the connection to "Superstar".

I'd watched Friends in the past, but never with fannish devotion, or multiple times, so I didn't notice when I first watched Superstar, but having seen the latter multiple times, and THEN seen the Friends episode, it just jumped out at me.

How intriguing. Now I need to watch both episodes.

Go for it! I had forgotten how funny Friends is.

What an interesting observation.

Thanks - I saw a lot of plagiarism of "Third Rock from the Sun" in Buffy as well.
