[quote=Anonymous]You have to remember that this was when TV was TV, and we watched it on a schedule. So this was a Thursday night, prime time, 8 p.m. TV thing people gathered together to watch. It was Friends or on the other channels, Murder She Wrote or Worlds Funniest Videos -- so, Friends was popular. If you missed it you missed it until there were reruns on TV. There was no binge watching or watching on your own schedule and far fewer choices of what to watch. (Actually many of the shows other stations put opposite Friends were truly terrible and didn't last long). So it was more social -- everyone was watching the same thing on the same night (often in the same dorm lobby or living room) and then talked about it the next day. [/quote]
