The Friends Episode Tagging Project
I’ve wanted to sketch out the “story arcs” for Friends for a while. There are multiple themes and story elements that span through multiple episodes and seasons – some lasting the entire series.
What are those? How do they relate? Can we visualize them throughout the entire run of the show.
This evolved into a tagging project. Could I tag every episode of Friends in a such a way that we could derive and visualize patterns?
