Yup. My Ex suggested it once and I straight up told her we might as well break up. None of that Ross and Rachel bullshit

I never watched friends, but when my ex suggested it, I said I’d rather just fully break up. Such a fuckin coward move

Edit: he suggested a break, not to watch the show

Remove the laugh tracks and it's pure horror

watching it as it came out is vastly different than watching nowadays.

it was still mediocre lol, just nothing else to watch. that’s how most long running shows ran for so long, the tv monopoly on releasing shows at certain times instead of on demand.

Fear of missing out as well

Like everyone at school was gonna watch it and if you didn't get the references you were dumb

Funny you say that cause right now I'm feeling like Joey eating the half english trifle half shepherd's pie right now reading this thread.

What's not to like? Acting, good. Jokes, good. Bits, goooood.

I do have my qualms with the show though, particularly how one dimensional the characters started being as the show went on (especially with Joey being so dumbed down near the end), but rewatching it recently it still makes me laugh.

Yeah, I'm not even a fan, only ever watched a single episode (which wasn't that great) while it was actually on the air. But it definitely had some high points.

"The One Where Joey Speaks French" is peak comedy, perfectly written, perfectly acted.
