This show had a character that physically could not speak to women without being intoxicated. I think they eventually created a pharmaceutical drug to resolve this.

EDIT: As for Friends, there was a lot of fat phobia and gay panic.

If I recall, they literally just dropped it one episode and acknowledged it with an "oh well."

He eventually got over it, but yeah it was forced and uncomfortable.

Friends I never understood. I didn't have a problem with most of it. It just... Sucked. It wasn't good. I had more of a problem with Seinfeld but accepted that it was superior.

[-] hopesdead@startrek.website 5 points 1 day ago

I’d rethink any opinions you have of Jerry Seinfeld. He thinks the phrase “Free Palestine” is worse than the Holocaust.

Don't get me wrong, he sucks. But his show was better than friends.

Hard disagree. People still laughing cuz he wore a poofy shirt and it’s not even a cohesive joke. He just wore a shirt. Woopdeefuckindoo.

“Airline food. What is the deal with that?” Why are people laughing?

I’ve read 5 yr olds put together more cohesive story with crayons. Dude was just lazy.

Do you think Larry David is funny?

Not op but nope. Same with office as well.

There are just some people that enjoy watching others be uncomfortable and I think it’s correlated with having less empathy.

When I watched the office, I just felt bad for Michael.

A lot of those shows just focus on punching down.

Yeah the shows that punch down are just terrible. I also didn’t like the office. Seinfeld has to be one of the worst shows ever made, same for everybody loves Raymond. They’re just shows meant to make you mad and have you laugh at the less well off.

Yeah I don't like the office either, or parks and rec, arrested development, or any show that relies on being painfully uncomfortable.

[-] GreyEyedGhost@piefed.ca 1 points 22 hours ago

I liked the office overall, but the first season and a half was almost physically painful at times. They really toned down the schadenfreude at that point and pivoted Michael to being inept but lovable. The last season or so was all over the place.
