New York in the 90s was amazing. So when the people of the sitcom making business wanted to make another comedy show, they wanted to have the setting in that city. And thus, Friends was born! Another US sitcom that spanned a whole decade, and one of the top 10 best comedy series. I dare ya to watch one episode and not laugh even in one scene! From iconic quotes like "How you doin'?" to "Oh my God!" and of course "WE WERE ON A BREAK!", to every witty banters at the gang's local coffee shop and Joey and Chandler's dynamic friendship. Friends is by far the best sitcom in the 90s!

Friends is perfectly crafted for singles. Anecdote: Friends was made because there was only absurd Happy Days and there was nothing better.

Friends is a perfectly crafted sitcom using clever psychological tools. The cast’s baby faces never showed their real age, keeping everyone looking forever young. Writing entertains nonstop with subtle psychological layers and entertaining unique characters. Structural psychology: jumps straight into a sketch before the intro to inject instant good vibes, no waiting. Ends with a post-credits sketch that leaves viewers happy instead of sad and empty after credits. Uses a real uplifting good mood song (“I’ll Be There for You”) instead of generic music. Epis…
