Evil!

Courtesy of my Billings buddy Randy comes news that the cast of “Friends” has agreed to reunite for several hour-long shows. People, this is wrong, wrong, wrong for so very many reasons. What a horrible show; arguably the worst TV series ever made. At the risk of offending some of my readers with delicate sensibilities, there is only one proper response to this news. Actually, there’s probably more thought and creativity put into that website than was put into the entire series of “Friends,” so I should apologize to the creators of RateMyVomit.com for comparing their website to something as horrible, disgusting, and evil as “Friends.”
Worst tv series ever? No way. Most OVERRATED series? Highly probable.
Reunion shows are generally interesting, sometimes even if you didn’t watch the original, because you want to see what has happened to the characters and/or cast since the show went off the air. Well, if you want to know what happened to the cast, turn on the television for about 30 seconds and you’ll find out what happened to Jennifer Aniston (as if you didn’t already hear it 30,000 times), and really nothing much has happened to the others. As for the characters, it hasn’t been long enough to generate interest. Are the five non-Anistons so convinced they aren’t getting any more work that they’re already jumping at the big paycheck?
I propose that from now on, the show be referred to as “Friend$.”
Worst ever? Never watched “Holmes and Yo-Yo,” I take it.
There are dozens — no, HUNDREDS of worse shows that have made it to air. How about worst successful show ever?
That would be Happy Days.
