I've watched a lot of the sitcom "Friends". Watching it now, I find it slightly annoying, but I think it is still a timeless classic. It is kind of sad how a few of the actors went on to get extensive plastic surgery, and Matthew Perry is dead. But they were such big actors at the time and made so much money.
I get a little bit of anxiety watching the show, however. There's something about the interaction of the 5 friends that makes me uncomfortable. The way they sometimes tease and ridicule each other. It was a different time back then, before cell phones and the ubiquity of computers.
My favourite character is by far Phoebe. I love her realism and attitude, and her immunity to being ridiculed by others. The way she teases the other "friends" and exposes them for their character flaws makes her a great character.
I don't stream Friends but I watch it when it's on TV. On a side note, I find that watching programs on TV is far more satisfying than streaming them. Streaming services are kind of disappointing compared to live TV.
