Intertops.com Makes Cast Of Hit NBC Sitcom Heavy Favorites To Return For Ninth Season
St. John’s, Antigua (February 6, 2002)—Fans of the hit NBC sitcom may not have to say goodbye to their Friends at the end of this season after all. With negotiations between representatives of the show’s cast members, the network, and Warner Bros., the show’s producer, reportedly underway, the door remains open for the series to return for its ninth season next fall. Realizing that Friends is the highest-rated show on television and its’ return is NBC’s main priority; Intertops.com today announced odds on the sitcom continuing for yet another season.
The Internet’s first and largest sports betting site, Intertops.com has made the likelihood of Friends returning for another season a heavy favorite at 1/10 odds (i.e., win $1 for every $10 bet). Those willing to take a chance on the long shot can bet that an agreement will not be reached, bringing the series to an end this spring, currently listed at 7/1 odds (i.e., win $7 for every $1 bet).
“With formal discussions between the interested parties beginning to take place, it appears that there is at least some interest to bring Friends back for another season,” said Simon Noble, CEO and co-founder of Intertops.com. “Of course these talks will come down to money, with reports indicating that the six co-stars of the show will demand upwards of $1 million each per episode. Considering that Friends has soared to the number one TV ratings spot and beat the likes of Survivor on a weekly basis, it’s likely the powers that be will do whatever necessary to ensure the cast returns for another season.”
Any agreement reached between the co-stars, NBC and the show’s producer will likely put the Friends cast in the company of television’s highest-paid sitcom stars. Intetops.com has also created a unique over/under line for the amount the six individual Friends co-stars will earn per episode if an agreement is reached, currently set at 1.1 million per star per episode.
