A shrink is derided and mental health issues are simultaneously made light of and stigmatized. Lesbians are punchlines. And Chandler straight up stares at Rachel's breasts, which prompts the laugh track for some reason.
Also, the first season looks like it was shot on VHS.
Really? You see, back then, there was something called "comedy" and folks who had a sense of humor could enjoy said "comedy" without getting their panties in a twist.
shareEveryone wasn't offended by everything then though. The last few years people have to watch every thing they say because you have a group of whiners complaining about it.
Don't like something, don't watch it.
Oh you poor thing. Are your precious feelings going to be ok? It must be horrible to live life without a sense of humor. You be sure and let everyone know what things we are allowed to joke about and which ones will send the eternally offended types over the edge. It's all about you, you know. We can't bare to have any uptight, easily offended types get upset.
shareYes. Wasn't it great when shows could still be like that?
shareI sometimes wonder if generations of the future will find all our wonderful shows and movies abhorrent and throw it all in a volcano.
Also, those themes run throughout the whole series.
You know what else ages poorly...SNOWFLAKES!!!
share^ You said snowflake! Were you TRIGGERED?
shareHow the fuck did you find that? When we were talking the other day I was like oh shit...you did give snowflake a test drive the other day...hope no one uses against you...doh๐ฑ
shareIt's a sitcom. From the 90s at that.
It's 10 seasons worth of different types of jokes, you're not going to agree with every one of them - that doesn't mean you can't laugh.
You don't need to take everything personally - laughing doesn't make you a bad person.
The first season was shot in 1994, as time went on with more money came better equipment and quality.
I'm still waiting to hear how it hasn't aged well. All you've shown here is it's SOCIETY that hasn't aged well.
Truth be told, there are the same amount of psychos that are offended by everything. The problem is the internet. It's given them a voice, and the moronic powers that be, listen to that unstable voice of the minority. One freak complains about something moronic and everyone takes action.
So yeah....it's society that hasn't aged well.
