《紐約時報》報導
“Friends: The Reunion,” the sweet, shaggy special arriving on HBO Max on Thursday, makes another thing about the titles clear: They’re pre-nostalgized. They’re written the way you would try to remember the episodes, retrospectively, years later — say, at a reunion.
•shaggy（毛髮）粗長而蓬亂的
•special (n.)（電視）特別節目
•retrospectively 涉及以往地；追溯地；回顧地
•retrospective與retroactive有何區別: https://bit.ly/3oKMzF8
《六人行：重聚》(Friends: The Reunion)週四在HBO Max頻道播出，這是一個溫馨可愛的特輯，顯示出那些片名的另一個特點：它們預先就已經在懷舊了。它們是按照你們在多年後回想往事的方式寫的——比如，在一次重聚的時候。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Nostalgia was built into “Friends” right down to the concept, which the co-creator David Crane describes here as, “It’s about that time in your life when your friends were your family.”
•nostalgia 對往事的懷念，懷舊，念舊
•Your friends are your family. 你的朋友是你的家人。
《六人行》中包含了懷舊的觀念，聯合創作者戴維·克蘭(David Crane)這樣描述說：「它是關於你生命中朋友就是家人的那段時光。」

In other words, it’s a show about a time that you know will end even as you live through it, that you will look back on later, with a new life and new responsibilities, romanticizing the days when you were young, hot and broke, yet somehow living in an unreasonably large apartment.
•look back on 回首 ; 回想
•romanticize 以浪漫方式說話；使浪漫化；使理想化
•young, hot, and broke 年輕、火辣、又沒錢
•somehow 以某種方法，以某種方式 ; 不知什麽原因
換句話說，這是一部關於時間的劇集，就算你正在經歷這段時光，你也知道它總會結束；日後，等到你有了新的生活和新的責任，你會回首這段時光，浪漫地描述你的年輕歲月，那時你熱情而又潦倒，但不知怎地，卻很不合理地住在一座大公寓裡。

So this special is the super-expressway of memory lanes, an hour and three-quarters that stitch together several formats: a talk-show-style interview with James Corden; a celebrity-packed tribute; a collection of behind-the-scenes clips; and a revisiting and re-creation of classic scenes.
•super-expressway (超級)快速道路；高速公路
•take a stroll/trip/walk down memory lane 追憶往昔
•stitch together 縫在一起 ; 結合在一起
•stitch sth together 匆忙完成；草草應付
•a celebrity-packed tribute 由名人組成的致敬
•behind-the-scenes clips 幕後花絮
•behind the scenes 不公開地，幕後地
•classic scenes 經典場景
所以這個特別節目是記憶通道的快速路，1小時45分鐘的時間把幾種形式結合在一起：詹姆斯·柯登(James Corden)的脫口秀式採訪；一個由名人組成的致敬；一組幕後剪輯的集合；以及經典場景的重溫和再現。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Who was your favorite back in the day? Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler, or Ross?
•back in the day 曾幾何時（尤用於追憶美好往事時）
