They had a whole episode where they stood in line waiting for a table at a Chinese restaurant. They had another one about which way to get in to a parking spot. To me, it was genius
i never understood the big hoop la about friends personally, but one of my friends at the time made me watch the final season w/ her and for some reason i got into it. it didn't dramatically alter my attitude about it tho.
and i never saw the big deal about seinfeld or frasier or any of those shows either.
I don't know if Friends was ever 'funny' as in 'laugh out loud' but i can easily sit and watch Friends episodes because they're just easy viewing and i find them quite relaxing. The most i do is chuckle at some of the things, but not laugh out loud
it was alright but as i got older i began to like it less and less and got so sick of joey and and that other one phoebe god everything she said was joke.
