Terrible, but Jennifer Anniston is hot so I'll watch it for a few seconds before changing the channel.

One of the best "traditional" network sitcoms of all time, for sure. Consistently funny for 10 years.

Also in the best episodes quite emotionally moving, which is rare in a sitcom.

It wasn't a bad show. It was popular, though, so naturally the usual suspects are obligated to hate it.

It was mostly good, but ran too long.

All four camera with laugh track sitcoms aren't as funny now as they were at the time. And yes that's including Seinfeld. That doesn't mean they're not funny at all now though.

Television in general is quite terrible. HS.

In the 90s? Yea, you may be right but for the past 10 years or so it's been the dominant medium in entertainment.

Hardly ever seen it, despite knowing all of the names of the main characters. Tongue

Considering all of the Emmys it won/was nominated for and its general high ranking in lists of the greatest sitcoms ever, I'd say not liking it is what signals "no taste" ...

The Emmys also keep giving awards to The Big Bang Theory so maybe not.

Pretty revolutionary obviously, even if it's aged poorly compared to the other two great sitcoms of the 1990s (Seinfeld and Simpsons).

Terrible and I always found it very cheesy. Mainstream sitcoms at it's worse.

Only good things about the show was seeing Courtney Cox and Jen A in their hotness primes,especially Jennifer. She was something else..

NBC had better shows at that time like Frazier or 3rd Rock.
