I know it’s popular to slam Friends but I enjoyed it. Yes, the whole Ross and Rachel thing was annoying as hell and many fans became too emotionally invested in the characters. But I thought it was good for what it was - 23 minutes of entertainment where you could just zone out and laugh a few times.
I agree. In high school I had a group of 5 or 6 friends that pitched in a few bucks every week for an eighth of weed and we would take bong hits out of Sunshine(bongs name) all night while watching Seinfeld and Friends. It was a great time.
Not liking something doesn’t make you a dick. You being you does.
True. Your post also made me think how it’s been many years since I’ve watched a scripted show on a regular network.
I can appreciate when a comedian says something "edgy" or something slightly unpopular to get a laugh from some folks with a dark sense of humor. Occasionally I can find that sort of thing funny myself. But comedians or people that hop on board laughing about deaths immediately, is kinda lame. Especially this instance, because it's just not funny in any way, shape, or form.Well, this guy kinda sucks at comedy:

That guy has found himself in some hot water for that insensitive joke.Well, this guy kinda sucks at comedy:

Exactly!
Just a douchebag looking to add to his followers.
???I thought "Friends" sucked, too.
I sometimes watched because it was in-between "The Simpsons" and "Seinfeld" when I was a kid.
Twenty years later they’re still making millions of dollars each year for syndication rights.
The Simpsons were on Thursdays for about 5 seasons, but moved 1 month before the beginning of Friends.
What about reruns?
Fox 5 had reruns of "The Simpsons", "Friends" and "Seinfeld" all around the 7 P.M. hour.
Those are what I watched. Granted, this was almost 30 years ago.
Bet it’s just divvied up and split by the others. They each get huge $$$ in residuals every year.
His parents separated when he was very young, and started other families. He had five half-siblings. Start there for who gets his money.
Why are people terrible?
Courteney Cox, ‘Friends’ Cast Attacked For Their Silence On Matthew Perry
Fans are attacking Courteney Cox, and the other ‘Friends’ actors, for remaining silent on Matthew Perry‘s death. Although the cast of ‘Friends’ released a joint statement shortly after the 54-year-old actor was found unresponsive in his hot tub, none of them have posted to social media...
"It's very strange that no one has said anything about Chandler, really why????"
"She never posted about Matthew death's ?? Why ?? This is so confusing 😦 even the others like Jennifer and Matt ??"
"Interesting no actor and across no post about Matthew Perry why? 14 years you play with Matthew but no post yet."
"Courteney, do you even know that your friend on the show died? At least I would say words of support!"
If I was a half-sibling, I would be fine splitting that five ways every year lol.
I told my wife I'm indifferent as to what is done with my meat sack once I vacate it. However, if she spends any money that is more than the absolute bare minimum I would return and haunt her for the rest of her life.
Given that Perry was 54 years old, had tens of millions of dollars, and had at least one near-death incident before, I’m guessing he and his business managers/accountants/agents had already put pen to paper and determined what would happen to his money and his future residuals after he died.
We'll probably never hear about his will. California is the "land of trusts", and most people there have a trust-based estate plan instead of a will.
