Ever dreamed of eating from Monica and Rachel’s fridge or watching TV on Jerry Seinfeld’s couch with a bowl of cereal?

Yabadabadoo! Ever wanted to stay in Jerry Seinfeld's apartment? Or what about where Monica and Rachel lived? Or, maybe Fred Flintstone is more your style?

In a world where many strange and delightful things are possible, these too are possible, well kind of.

In the spirit of catering to all tastes, some Airbnb owners have spruced up their pads to represent well known abodes on their favourite sitcom.

Still in love with TV megahit show Friends even though it stopped filming 19 years ago? If you're keen for a trip to Cincinnati in Ohio, United States, you can stay at a replica of Monica and Rachel's house... but then again, every character lived here at some point during the show's 10-season run.

If you're a fan you'll recognise the pad instantly. There's the purple walls, the colourful kitchen and the little square windows from where the show's characters regularly spotted 'ugly naked guy'.

If sitting on Jerry Seinfeld's couch with a bowl of cereal is more your style then, also in Cincinnati, is a replica of the comedian's iconic New York apartment made famous in the sitcom Seinfeld.

The listing is fittingly called The Apartment About Nothing. You'll recognise the iconic kitchen, the boxes of cereal stacked neatly on the shelf and the bicycle hanging vertically on the wall near the bathroom.
