[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The primary faulty with Friends was the complete absence of diversity.[/quote]

Clearly you never watched it.

It had interracial dating.

Lesbian mothers.

Catholics, Jews, and non religious.

A lead with a dad who was a gay drag queen turned trans.

Rich people.  Poor people.  People from broken homes.

You are really reaching for straws to try to start a political fight and push a narrative that this show was not diverse.[/quote]

Diversity wasn’t a consideration in the 90’s. Considering that, they were very diverse. And much more diverse in a later comedy, Big Bang.[/quote]

Yeah that's wasn't a focus at the time. Seinfeld wasn't either, what about Cheers or Home Improvement or Full House before that?

And agree with PP that it pushed boundaries in other ways, the lesbian wedding was surely a first for prime time network TV.[/quote]

Different World, Cosby Show, Family Matters, Fresh Prince?  Frasier, News Radio?[/quote]
