For the ten years it spent on television screens (before emerging again for reruns until the heat death of the universe), Friends was one of the most popular shows around. When your only competition is Seinfeld, you really did something! Watching the antics of the group of six friends as they stumbled and dated their way around New York City made for iconic television, which never failed to get big laughs. Even today, it’s consistently ranked as one of the greatest sitcoms of all time.
Something has changed over time, however. Watching the show today, when we’re a little older and hopefully a little wiser, a different, more troubling side starts to emerge. We were too busy laughing the first – or seventh – time around, but now… Now we can see the Friends are less than friendly – to each other and to the outside world. Examined critically, it’s plain to see Friends is far from perfect. These are our biggest issues.
