2. Nope.
I could care less about the program. Expect the flames to begin, CW.

4. I have never watched


It just seems so silly.
Jennifer is silly and so are the friends.
I have turned it on before but quickly turn to another channel.

5. The show sucks
I don't think I could have a pleasant conversation with any of them. Two morrons, two vain people and of the other two only Rachael seems normal.

11. I've watched it twice
Once when it first came on (thought it was unfunny and generally stupid), then again years later after it was a firm hit (because I thought I was missing something). I wasn't, it still sucked.

12. i made it to episode 3 season 1

Unfortunately, I have seen it.

and I plan on having this on my headstone: HE WASN'T A SMART MAN; BUT AT LEAST, HE NEVER WATCHED FRIENDS.

They're all just a bunch of overpaid NO TALENTS.

Edited on Thu Apr-29-04 09:10 PM by southpaw
I found the characters unlikeable for the most part...
don't recall ever watching a single episode from beginning to end...
can't recall even a fragment of the plot of any episodes I tried to watch...

...yep, folks! FRIENDS horks...

41. "Friends" and reality....
I mean, really, the program starts the first season with only 2 of the 6 characters having real jobs, the other 4 are either under or unemployed, yet they seem to lead these charmed lives in Manhatten? All they seem to do is hang out in the coffee shop and rarely have any real life concerns; like how they're paying rent with no visible income. Then, the whole damned Ross-and-Rachel crap got old as it went on over and over and over and over and over and over; you get the idea. I've watched the program, it has a few good episodes from years back, but by and large, I don't like it.

it's bearable, but only barely. They are not very likeable people - so self-absorbed.

48. except for the occasional
sporting event, I haven't watched anything on tv since late 1993. I've gone to bars or friends homes to see some sports. Haven't owned a tv in a little more than 10 years, as far as I'm concerned I haven't missed a thing.

(I've seen adverts for various shows; they didn't make me long to see the show.)

49. Never watched it.
Sophmore year of college there was a fire drill in my dorm right before the season premier of Friends and half the students stayed in their rooms to watch it. So we all got a two hour lecture from the fire marshall.

Can't help wishing it hadn't been a drill...
