In an interview with Britain's The Sunday Times (https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/lisa-kudrow-interview-on-her-new-comedy-space-force-and-what-phoebe-buffay-would-be-doing-in-lockdown-spp0879ls), Kudrow discusses being quarantined with her husband and 22-year-old son, what's going to happen at the HBO Max reunion and how "Friends has been nothing but good." "It’s very hard to stake your claim in this business. So anything that puts you in a spotlight where people pay attention is an opportunity," she says. But she makes it clear that Friends would be different if it were made today. "It would not be an all-white cast, for sure. I’m not sure what else," she says. "But, to me, it should be looked at as a time capsule, not for what they did wrong. Also, this show thought it was very progressive. There was a guy whose wife discovered she was gay and pregnant, and they raised the child together? We had surrogacy too. It was, at the time, progressive."

According to liberals the show is white supremacist because it has an all white cast! :lol:

I never liked Friends even if they were pink, blue, purple, or green!.:lol:

You really shouldn't be. A liberal that is.

A significant part of the Democratic base considers ANY show racist that has an all white cast! You realize that's MOST shows on Sitcoms Online??

I'm saying this as a NON-white American citizen! My parents came LEGALLY to America decades ago from India.
