Friends (the sitcom)

Woah! I'd have expected you to like Seinfeld, Frasier, or even Everybody loves Raymond. But Friends? Wow - I didn't see that coming. What next, Hannah Montana? :rolleyes:

That would be fun if he posts about it.

Yup, I know it's late, but hey, I couldn't help it.
I've come across it while flipping channels in my college days (didn't have cable TV in my school days) but I hardly gave it a second thought. A friend gave me season 1 on DVD last year and I put it away for six months until last month. I've been hooked since episode 1! I'm now more than halfway through season 3, and it's fantastic! Chandler is my favourite character and the one I resemble the most. I like Phoebe and Joey too. I resemble Monica a bit too, for the fastidiousness, although that counts against her. Ross and Rachel are just too irritating: Ross for his insecurity and Rachel for her shallowness. Which of the six do you resemble the most? Whom do you like the best? Could Chandler BE any funnier? "Rock... hard place... me!" has me spilling my guts out laughing :laugh: every time I see it. Also memorable are "The fifth dentist caved and now they're all recommending Trident?" and "Well, I'm not showing you my tat".
Cheers, Vikram.

I couldn't even stand the commercials for that nauseating show when it was on. I've always figured that if those were representative of the actual show, then I haven't missed anything over the last 10 years or whatever. And judging by the other replies so far, that was a good call.

I'm surprised you find this either enjoyable or funny or any positive combination thereof! I could never stomach the show, but my wife, her sisters and my sisters along with the general global populace apparently love the show :shrug:

I think you will like Frasier. You may need to watch 2-3 episodes to get the full context, but once you do that, you will like it (me-thinks) :-)

Friends is awesome - I like as well. Haven't seen it in a while tho' since it ended quite some time ago.
"When you have made evil the means of survival, do not expect men to remain good. Do not expect them to stay moral and lose their lives for the purpose of becoming the fodder of the immoral. Do not expect them to produce, when production is punished and looting rewarded. Do not ask, `Who is destroying the world?' You are."
