A proposito di questo titolo

 The one with the purple door. The one with the orange couch. The one show that defined a generation and became the ultimate "comfort food" TV. We all know and love Friends, right?

But what happens when you rewatch it today?

On this episode of Cancel It or Keep It?, we’re putting our own nostalgia on trial. We dive headfirst into Central Perk to ask the hard questions. One of us argues that Friends is timeless lightning in a bottle—a hilarious, heartwarming sitcom about the family you choose. It was a product of its time, and its heart is still in the right place.

The other brings the receipts. We're breaking down the relentless jokes about "Fat Monica," the treatment of Chandler's transgender parent, the casual homophobia, and the show's blinding lack of diversity. Was it all just innocent 90s humor, or did it leave a legacy of harmful stereotypes we're still unpacking today?

This is the ultimate cultural autopsy of the biggest sitcom in history. Can you still love your problematic fave? Hit play, pick a side, and join the debate. Could this episode BE any more controversial?
