Looks like the chosen TV network for the Friends reunion is going to be trailering it to fuck.

Only ever watched a few programmes on and off but needless to say, it never really did it for me. Inane, safe, middle of the road, heavily saccharined shite as far as I could see.

Could anyone tell me from a customary, no holds barred, TS perspective about what’s so good about it? I’m open minded and could happily start watching if the artistic merits are sold to me. And Rupe/Steve, don’t bang on about Jen, Ahm nae having any of it.

Honestly, Lawnsy, it's okay bordering on good. The sort of thing that you could have on i the background and glance up and chuckle at from time to time. Very much a product of the nineties though. If the acting isn't so great, they at least had top notch writers.

Christ knows what abomination they will serve up as a reunion though inthese McCarthyist woke times.

Apparently it's going to be unscripted. If so, it'll be shit.
