The better NYC Sitcom from the 90's..."Seinfeld or Friends?" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 04-19-2012, 11:16 PM

I been hooked on Friends every night for more than a month then all of a sudden i discovered that Seinfeld comes on at 2am on TBS the same time as Friends on Nick@Nite

So I gave the slight edge to Seinfeld and watch Friends at 3am because of Jerry, George, and Elaine. They were too damm funny.

What NYC sitcom do you like better?

Surprised that NBC never had the cast of Friends and Seinfeld crossover since both shows were set in the same city

^ That's true. The actress who played "Monica" on Friends (Courtney Cox) was on Seinfeld once, but she was a different character, not the "Monica" character. She was Jerry's fake wife so they could get a family discount at the dry cleaners. That was a good one.

I will call that a quiet crossover-LOL

Friends, without a doubt. I never could get into Seinfeld.

Both are great. Can't compare the two. Drastically different styles. I'm probably one of the very few who prefer Curb to Seinfeld though.

Mr. Television · 04-21-2012, 10:04 PM

Seinfeld all the way. I could never stand Friends.

factsoflife · 04-22-2012, 02:29 AM

Friends. I liked that show better.

Mad About You was also awesome.
