Friends: The Poll

I like Friends but in full disclosure I don't think I watched anything past the fifth or sixth season so that might be why I like Friends.

one of the jokes they included was that two of the guys were hanging onto each other from a ledge and the top one farts.

To be fair, this never happened

Thank you. He actually shit his pants iirc?

boy they really burried the failed Rachel/Joey thing quick didn't they.

I don’t have a source for this, but I seem to recall hearing that fan reaction to that plot was so negative that it was dropped as quickly as possible.

That dumb goddamn article says "Friends" had bad politics. I don't care. It didn't do its job. It wasn't funny. It was a soap opera full of smug assholes winking at the camera.

Nixon died just before the show aired, but what's your excuse?

never made it past the theme song

you’re posting a tweet by a person who doesn’t exist about an article nobody has read about a show you’ve never seen

a perfect circle

(i def saw a few minutes now & then flipping thru and was properly revolted)

The purity of opinion untainted by experience, it's breathtaking to behold.

PS, regardless of how the interviewee feels about the show, you'll find few who'll argue the theme song isn't the worst part by a country mile.

(ITT I nudge Morbs ever closer to actually watching + enjoying the American sitcom entitled Friends. Join me, won't you.)

that twitter account is the most cursed gen x disphittery

a perfect circle

Seasons Two and Three were the peak, especially when Tom Selleck played Monica's boyfriend.

one sip of milk tells you if it's sour

plus i hate Schwimmer's face

like Twitter Nixon i like Kudrow in the movies

it's fucking Friends and it has that homicidal theme song, fuck it forever

fucking yuppieporn coffeehouse fantasy of NYC

friends is better than f troop morbs

to whom?

it knocks the phil silvers show into a cocked hat

what the f is a f troop even (skateboards away)

every generation needs a tv show that ruined NYC for good.

yeah this show was atrocious, certainly morally much worse than oh say turning a racist war criminal into a cute fake twitter account full of "tellin' it like it is" bullshit

not ruined, made more assholes move here xp

see also S&tC, Girls

"these gen z pussies don't like the retrograde cultural politics of a show written by boomers, this gen z nerd is here to tell you that doesn't matter because the show was lame anyhow"

isn't assholes moving to NY basically what made NYC

Dutch East India Co were pretty big assholes

sounding a lil Trumpian there xp

xpost ha! I thought during my post about a poll of Friends, s&tC and Girls ruining nyc but I don't make polls.

I have a friend that used to get very very upset about the show Felicity ruining nyc.

I already did a poll for shows about young women "making it" in NYC, having trouble finding it tho

ok, not a poll but here it is TV Shows about single ladies living in NYC

I think Chris Noth has given interviews where he gets all grumbly about s&tc ruining nyc.

the idea that friends was some level of awful but seinfeld is worth shit is a venn diagram i could ignore all day

your opinion on seinfeld is worth similar to morb's on friends tho.

ive tried with seinfeld, i really have

hes ok in cars getting coffee, i mean i dig the unashamed asshole thing

boring show

larry storch is still living

I remember seeing a feature on Entertainment Tonight back in the day about the upcoming season of new 'Seinfeld clones', including Friends. The next year, they ran basically the same story about 'Friends clones'.

think I agree with darraghmac

also, hard to believe any of these shows ruined NY

sitcoms don't ever really feel like they're in the city they're supposed to be in and are generally filmed elsewhere afaict

it's mostly S&tC that gets the ruined ny treatment. xpost

I liked Seinfeld a lot. Friends was always mindless entertainment that I never understood the popularity or appeal of the actors. I have no desire to rewatch either.

S&tC and Girls did seem to show NY in a way that the earlier sitcoms didn't
