It is cringe πŸ˜„

Simple feel good comedy is just a distraction from reality. Even worse, with their semi fantasy β€œthis is how real world is” style, they are actually hurting society making people think they are living in this fantasy society.

Go for Silo, severance and Invasion. Those shows offer way more reality based society even while being full-on fantasy.

Eh?

Simple feel good comedy is just a distraction from reality

Yes? Yeah! That's what we want! Just a few laughs to relax and I don't have to think too deeply, what's wrong with that?

Silo, severance, invasion

It's like I'm talking about apples and you say "yeah but airplanes are much better!" and.... I can't eat an airplane, dude!

Friends was very good at what it pretended and intended to be: simple fun to relax and feel good, it is what people wanted which it was so insanely popular
