As a kid, I didnt really understand the jokes or plot but parents would watch it all the time, and it had me thinking it was some sort of high brow humor I was too young to understand.
Then I watched it as an adult and realize there’s some kids shows more witty and funny (e.g. The Weekenders) then the vapidity and fake-intensity reactions each episode has.
Friends was one of the dumbest shows my ex has ever made me watch. When she tried to make me watch Seinfeld, I knew it wasn’t going to work out.
I genuinly enjoyed Seinfeld, although I don’t think that it would be at my top three funniest TV shows. Friends however, I couldn’t get into it.

I could not deal with either of those shows either. People finally stopped asking me if I had “seen last nights episode”.
“Did last night’s episode have Jerry’s hair? Jerry’s teeth? A bunch of stupid fucking slap bass? Then no, I didn’t watch that shit.”
