Full Of It #134 - Friends
🕑 Added 2020-12-13 00:00:02 +0000 UTCFriends is an American television sitcom that's been forcibly shoved down our throats for what seems like 50 years. I'm a fan of Friends and don't mind telling you that I was obsessed with it as a teenager but have come to alter my position in the last decade as some of its flaws have become more and more alarmingly evident. So here we are as we chit chat about the idea of continuing to enjoy a TV show which is so awkwardly stuck in the past.

I’m one of them who has never seen an episode of friends, it just doesn’t seem entertaining to me, maybe it’s the humour. However I really like ‘My Family’ which kinda has the same vibe as friends but with the British humour that I was raised on. Don’t you think that Abi from ‘My Family’ and Phoebe are basically the same person? They’re both kinda simple in the head and say the strangest things 😂 Also I was hoping that legendary creature was gonna be released soon so that it would’ve been this year’s Christmas number one but maybe next year 🤞🥰
Hey, thanks for an amazing episode, I’m so glad you talked about Friends. It was always one of my fav TV shows as a kid, but like most it has kinda phased out of my life now. I do still dip into it sometimes though if there’s nowt on Netflix, but obviously just have to ignore the crappy LGBT+ jokes. Phoebe was always my favourite character, closely followed by Rachel and Monica. I totally agree that Ross is just shit. Also I don’t know if this is a thing, but I swear like every straight friend I have lists Chandler as their fav character, and don’t get me wrong I think he’s ok but I think I agree with you that’s he’s a bit none. Anyhow, Phoebe is hilarious and I would still laugh at many of her best bits (eg her wedding rehearsal when she kicks off at Monica and when she meets Mike’s parents). Also I don’t know if you’ve seen it, but there is literally a compilation video of Lisa Kudrow’s laugh (it’s a friends blooper reel) on YouTube and it is to this day one of my fav YouTube videos - it can always cheer up your day! She probably has the most infectious laugh I’ve ever heard, so I’d highly recommend. Thanks again and can’t wait for next week’s episode 😁
