Does Syd Field's Paradigm help or hinder screenwriters in the creation of original work? Throughout the entire history of cinematography, the screenwriters accomplished delivering captivating, challenging and successful stories. At the beginning, screenwriters, unwillingly, created stories and clear narrative structure by using three acts or five-act structures that could be found in the Shakespearean plays. In 1979, the idea of a conventional three-act structure was officially created by Syd Field when he described it in his book The Foundation of Screenwriting.

Ross and His Son Ben
Love it or hate it, Friends was one cultural phenomenon that swept across the world with a "WOOPAH" (insert whipped sound effect). One could argue that the quality of jokes went south as the series progressed... perhaps you found yourself screaming, "Could this show BE any stupider?" when Joey proved himself too stupid to repeat a few French phrases or he thought he had become a millionaire by finding his hand twin. Or perhaps the cleverer, well thought out, hilarious plot line when Rachel and Phoebe were sure that "Mondler" did not "know that we know that they know that we know" left you in stitches. Love it or hate it, Friends will go down as one of the better-known sitcoms in history.
