I'm an only child so I used to daydream that Blair, Jo, Natalie and Tootie were my sisters. But Tootie was adopted.

If Penny was my neighbour we'd totally hang out.

If I was in high school my best friend would be Darlene Conner.

I've always thought it would be great fun to hang out with Elaine Benes.

I'm pretty sure that I could put up with Sheldon. The rest of the BBT gang would be fun.

I'd also like to be friends with Reagan and Chris from Up All Night, although I'm pretty sure that they're cool enough that I'd feel insecure about the whole thing.

Not even friends...with benefits?

Not both at once. THAT wouldn't work at all; Dharma would totally dominate.

Nevertheless, I think I'd be willing to risk it.

J.D. was a horrible person; neurotic, immature, and selfish.

Turk, on the other hand, was a fairly normal human.

Except for his insane competitiveness.

Leonard, Howard, and Raj. I have engineers and physicists and the family, so I could deal. Also, they'd think I'm hot.

the HIMYM gang, maybe, if my liver could stand it. I like Marshall and Ted a lot, but everyone cares about looks just a little too much in that crowd, and I'd feel inadequate.

Chandler is the only one of the "Friends" crowd I like.

I'd love to encourage Gus to mess with Shawn Spencer's head.

I s'pose it's not really possible to be friends with any of the Warehouse 13 guys...well, if they got a budgetary increase, I'd love to be hired on to help with the inventory, and hear the stories about the adventures, without actually being an agent. I know, doing inventory would be more than dangerous enough.

Ducky...I love his stories. And winning Leroy Jethro's friendship means a real friendship for life. Not the laughs and giggles kind, but the deep down real deal count on to save your life kind.

Oh, yeah, for the laughs and giggles but total unreliability, Dr. Johnny Fever. Venus Flytrap would be a more reliable person, but maybe it would be harder to become his friend.

Going to parties given by Rob and Laura Petrie, when Buddy and Sally are there.

Chuck Bartowski

And I'd like to get Rick Castle for my writing coach.

It's okay. I'd totally sleep with Ted, so I at least won't quibble over the use of the word "friend," and I'm betting a lot of other people feel the same way.

Sally Solomon from Third Rock from the Sun.
Ron Fucking Swanson and/or Leslie Knope.
Lisa and Oliver Wendell Douglas
Drew Carey from The Drew Carey Show, but his parties are probably pretty loud.
Jeannie and Tony Nelson from I Dream of Jeannie, not because I'd have any interest one way or the other about living near them, but to have some prime Cocoa Beach oceanfront property
