RE: Today in History: "Friends" airs for the first time 25 years ago

in #tv6 years ago

To be very honest, I am that 1% of people who haven't watched friends yet. Would love to start it soon.

Sort:  

well, i suppose if you are young (i don't know how old you are) it is a lot more conceivable that you wouldn't have been subjected to this. Back in the late 90's it was almost a require part of entertainment as it was talked about all the time and loved by just about everyone.

Although this happens a lot less now, a lot of guesthouses on the South East Asian trail would have Friends on in the lobby pretty much all the time. I encountered this in Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, and to a much lessor degree in Malaysia. Of course they don't do that anymore because everyone just looks at their phones.

I think the idea was that this show had such widespread appeal that there was a good chance that everyone was going to be ok with it being on... perhaps stay a bit longer because of it.

That's quite amazing. I wasn't aware that it was that much trendy. I am 22 years old now, and perhaps was a kid when that trend took over.
I will surely spare out time to watch it.

ah, well if you were weren't even alive when it was released you get a pass. There were many very popular shows that were on when i was very young that I didn't watch. by the time Friends stopped making new episodes you were probably still mostly interested in cartoons :P

Yes, surely cartoons, but it is available on netflix now so, i will spare out time to watch it.
