In Australia, you can watch "Friends" for free on the TV channel Channel 10's catch-up service called 10Play, but it only offers selected episodes from seasons 2, 3, and 4. For full access to all 10 seasons for free, a popular workaround is to use a VPN to connect to a New Zealand server and stream all seasons of "Friends" on TVNZ+, a free streaming service available in New Zealand that does not require a subscription. This method allows viewers in Australia to watch the entire series at no cost by virtually accessing the New Zealand service. To summarize options for watching "Friends" for free in Australia:
- Channel 10's 10Play (limited episodes, free)
- Full series free on TVNZ+ (New Zealand) via VPN connection to New Zealand server (no subscription needed)
Using a VPN for TVNZ+ is currently the best way to watch all "Friends" seasons for free in Australia.
