imagine imagining a 2019 where people didn't start every statement with the word imagine
Time to text my cousins
I'm gonna piggy back on this thread and say that Seinfeld and Costanza are worse people. I just finished my first walkthrough and those guys are terrible terrible people.
I always see people complain about Friends cast but never Seinfeld.
He was in the right on the "we were on a break " though, the bitterness in bringing it up all the time not so much.What's great is the last season or so has episodes that specifically point out that Ross hasn't matured since breaking up with Rachel in the first time. So they give is his happy ending after providing every reason to believe that he's just inevitably going to fuck it up again and it's going to be all his fault. Like, one of his last lines in the show is making a "we were on the break" joke.
I mean moreso that he finally gets his relationship back and then nearly fucks it up immediately.He was in the right on the "we were on a break " though, the bitterness in bringing it up all the time not so much.
Oh, they were supposed to be seen as terrible people? I genuinely thought they were supposed to be likable haha. That makes it a bit better thenI think its the point Seinfeld and co are terrible people, they belong in jail.
But I dont get the complaint about Friends either, do they support to be good? They are young good looking, selfish and very funny.
True, it's probably the most realistic thing in the show.I mean moreso that he finally gets his relationship back and then nearly fucks it up immediately.
You should check out It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia next!Oh, they were supposed to be seen as terrible people? I genuinely thought they were supposed to be likable haha. That makes it a bit better then
Why does Ross, the largest friend, not simply eat the other five?
There was a Netflix show from last year about a dude stalking a girl, and the lead actor had to go on Twitter asking his fans to stop romanticising a sociopath. I wish I could remember the name.
Most probably don't remember him(I didn't), I thought you meant Phoebe's brother until I googled.I'll never get why Mike seems to get a pass when people discuss what jerks the characters are.
Goddamn what a perfect first post
He was supposed to be sympathetic? Did screamed we were on a break every time someone pointed out it was his fault they broke up or in general portrayed badly anytime a problem with the relationship was mentioned. I honestly don't remember anything similar happening to Rachel so it must not have happened much.Independently of the weird shit you mentioned, what's really depressing is how at the time the show was airing, Ross was actually supposed to be sympathetic somehow in the arguments that he'd have with Rachel, where the reality of the matter is that he was a controlling, insecure man child and the only thing Rachel ever did wrong was a) having a career she liked, or b) expecting him to own up to anything ever.
He's the quintessential "nice guy" with all of the baggage that comes with it.
OP, did you also see that video the YouTube algorithm has been pushing the last days?
It was stated in the show that every relationship problem Ross has it's because he has been scarred for life from what happened in his first marriage with Carol.He was supposed to be sympathetic?

They must have been self sabotaging themselves if they were trying to portray Ross as sympathetic in that relationship.
The show does try to draw pity but it never fails to remind you that almost everything Ross complains about was his own fault.
Ross is thousand times better than Ted. I dont hate him but he still the second worse character on Friends though.
Because it's funnier. In the first few seasons he was honestly kind of boring. Some people make it seem like they want the whole cast to be calm, nice, quiet peoole.They did turn Ross into a bit of a jerk when they decided to break him and Rachel up, that wasn't handled well.
I don't remember that and it's straight up false anyway unless the arguement is that it caused Ross to say another woman's name at the alter.It was stated in the show that every relationship problem Ross has it's because he has been scarred for life from what happened in his first marriage with Carol.
Ross said it because rachel self admittedly went there to try to mess up the wedding.I don't remember that and it's straight up false anyway unless the arguement is that it caused Ross to say another woman's name at the alter.
Rachel didn't actually mess up the wedding though, she only went to it. He said it because he was still hung up and in love with her while he was about to marry someone else. That was entirely his fault.Ross said it because rachel self admittedly went there to try to mess up the wedding.
It was his fault that he literally said it, but the fact that she got there at the last second without notice totally messed with ross's head. Plus I heard this story before of a guy accidentally saying an old ex's name at the alter, but the difference was that it was just seen as a nervous mistake.Rachel didn't actually mess up the wedding though, she only went to it. He said it because he was still hung up and in love with her while he was about to marry someone else. That was entirely his fault.
That's really over simplifying the other characters tbh. Chandler's jokiness is a self defense for being self conscience, and he changes a lot. Monica changes a lot too, they both do after getting together. Rachel becomes very self dependent, but also crazier...to a lesser extent than ross. Joey and Phoebe are a little more one dimensional I guess.Not sure it always worked as a comedic device but wasn't Ross in reality - the most rounded and real character in the show?
Insecure, desperate, needy but also deep down a decent guy - but one who's flaws defined much of how people interacted with them?
Beyond that you have more one dimensional - Monica - obssessive complusive control freak, used to be fat now isn't, Rachel - prom queen beauty, Chandler - the joker, Joey - the alpha male, Phoebe - the hippy.
All characters work as comedic constructs but are mainly one dimensional. You rarely see anything other than their default.

I would try to fuck my cousin, too, if she looked like peak 90's Denise Richards.
Shut up LrrrWhy does Ross, the largest friend, not simply eat the other five?
Because, desperate to do anything to save his marriage to Carol, he suggested they spice things up by having a threesome (suggested to him by someone), to which he was surprised when she immediately agreed. Susan was the third wheel who showed up and Ross was left out of it completely. Carol ended the relationship and shacked up with Susan, and applied for a divorce. Susan then became the one who ended his marriage, or he sees it much that way at least. It's an irrational but understandable reaction. Susan wasn't exactly giving reasons for Ross to like her either, to be fair. Both were quite snippy and insulting to each other right from the start of the show.
