First debuting more than 25 years ago, Friends is renowned in pop culture for many running gags, memorable jokes, and the “will they or won’t they?” plotline that would inspire sitcoms and other television shows to follow. Yet, one of the show’s elements that stands out is its highly iconic sitcom intro, which YouTuber DarwinStreams parodied in a video featuring scenes and characters from The Witcher show at their most jovial moments.

Additionally, the Friends intro’s song, “I’ll Be There For You” by The Rembrandts, can be heard in the background. The video is displayed below. However, it is worth noting that there may be spoilers ahead.
Also, like Friends, the parody displays the names of the actors of the main characters, including Henry Cavill, Joey Batey, Anya Chalotra, and Freya Allan. Roach, Geralt of Rivia’s horse in The Witcher, is also cited in the parodied intro credits.
After the video goes through the main actors, the parody intro ends on a scene of Geralt overlooking a serene mountainside. It then fades to black, much in the style of Friends.
Overall, this is a faithful parody of Friends. Using The Witcher as a base for the parody also adds humor, as the show generally has a serious and dark tone. Outside this parody, The Witcher hardly resembles Friends, though DarwinStreams’ edits are very convincing in the video.
The Witcher is currently available to stream on Netflix.
