I can't be the only one who doesn't find it remotely funny?
My Mrs loves it.
I don't get it

It has funny bits. But I got into it initially when I was like 12. If I ever watch it now it’s mainly for nostalgia.

 

[Oooo]

watched a few episodes to see whatr the fuss was and found it mildy amusing but very very shallow, not for me

 

[westlaner]

lasted 10 mins of a episode , bit too sickly sweet for me

Hasn't aged anywhere near as well as frasier which was out at roughly the same time.

Whilst that may be some folks’ valid opinion, it is as popular now as it’s ever been and has spanned at least 3 generations with its following.

Find it very funny

Never watched an episode and never will. Kids and wife love it

It's a fairly basic concept and is definitely cheesy, so I understand people not liking it.

However it is, for the most part, incredibly well written and the 6 leads have excellent comic timing and delivery. Not to mention some brilliant supporting characters and genuinely funny roles for guest stars (Danny Devito as the depressed stripper, come on that is funny! ).

Each to their own, but I struggle to believe anyone who doesn't find ANYTHING funny about it, there's such a wide range of jokes and scenarios in it (unless they've not really watched it and just made their mind up after 5 minutes. Which is fair enough, I'm sure I'll have done the same on other shows).

It was, and is, wildly successful for a reason mind.

I love it, though I grew up on it.

Never watched an episode and never will.

I always find that is the best way to judge a programme.

 

[Blf]

I love it. If there's nothing interesting on its my go to channel. Must have seen each episode multiple time now.
Could I BE more of a fan.

 

[Legz]

Love it, used to own every series box set at one point. Now I just dip into the odd episode when I fancy it....reminds me of younger days....Best episode is the one where Ross hosts the quiz for Monica and Rachel v Chandler and Joey

My personal favourite is the one with Alec Baldwin. But I also look like the one where Ross plays the keyboard.

Ross and the keyboard is a classic.

Quite possibly the funniest comment I’ve read, proper made me spit my beer out

I’m sure you’re not the only one, in the same way not everybody likes Parmos

 

[wyliefan]

Same,I don't really get it. Only usa comedy I truly love is Curb.

 

[sambaDTR]

I like the one where they are playing poker!

 

[Glover_elbow]

Never got it, it seemed vacuous even in the 90s. I absolutely love Seinfeld its a different league to friends . Great memories watching taxi, early cheers, Rhoda and newhart tv series with my late mam and dad,
