    It was a funny show. In those days we didn't focus on race so much. We appreciated each others different cultures and celebrated them. Now people are truly stupid. Not any one race either. All.

    Yes we enjoyed other peoples culture without having a show with every nationality and sexual orientation represented as elves and hobbits
    People who are Black and Latino understood this stuff was just a story and black hobbits don’t exist , black humans do

    Do u even like Friends @tinman or just trying to show faux outrage at woke people?
    I think nowadays shows that have diversity sells pretty well, take Community for example. Shows that are family based: married with children, Fresh prince of bel aire, fresh off the boat, etc wouldn't make sense to have diversity.
    Friends if rebooted probably wouldn't be an all white cast


    So many good shows in the 90s, i personally liked everybody love raymond.

    Breh Friends was realistic
    All the rich white people hang with each other especially in New York City

    Nobody has like an even amount of diverse friends in real life. Go live in Mexico I bet you the majority of the people you might hang out with are Mexicans

    but you don’t need to be a certain race to enjoy a show breh
    I mean a show everybody loved in the 80s was What’s happening
    This show would never happen now because these brehs are poor

    Well no sht if u go to Mexico there will b mostly Mexican, in America its more diverse, especially new york city.

    U figured a bunch of rich white folk doesn't have one minority friend in their group, not that realistic. Acting like new York was all white or some sht. I think if friends were rebooted there would b a non white friend in the group,

    I didn't like the friends not bc lack of diversity, I just liked everybody love Raymond humor more.

    Never was interested in friends or the outrage about the all white crew and those who get triggered by "woke folks". It just never made sense to me that in one of the most diverse city in the country, the group didn't even have one token

    I didn’t think Friends was funny , I was more of a Seinfeld guy.
    But TV in the 90s and 80s were what they were. You can’t go backwards and complain.
    If people want to make super diverse fake friends show, they should go to film school and graduate first and do it
    If the show sucks nobody will watch it
    That’s how it’s judged in the end
    Am I entertained not am I am happy some racial equity quota is met

    there were no black or white people in squid game
    It’s all a bunch of Koreans and it was Netflix’s number one show

    If your caretakers blocked YouTube and Twitter from your Gateway desktop PC would you know people were angry about the 90s hit TV show Friends?
