    What’s up with h all the hate for Friends these days? It’s a simple feel good comedy that got laughs, why hate on that?

    I loved friends, still do

        I’ve come to realize over the years that most TV is problematic, but you can still be consciously aware of it and still enjoy what you like within that context. I think it’s worse if you watch it, but have no idea that it’s problematic. My dad watches big bang theory sometimes, and that show is incredibly misogynistic for laughs. He has no idea, he thinks the humor is normal. He just takes a lot of that stuff in completely unexamined. My point being, if you are consciously aware of something being problematic, it makes your consumption of it more responsible.

        extremely problematic

        Oh boy, what did it wrong this time?

        I’m sorry but whenever someone starts talking about something being problematic it’s mostly something that really isn’t a problem, it’s just a personal dislike

        Anything and everything is problematic for somebody

      I don’t like it, but it’s plenty well written, it’s obvious why people like it. I think people just like to hate on things they don’t like, it can be fun to be negative with no substantial harm, like complaining for fun.
