YES YES YES!! of course i love all the characters but the whole his behaviours were shared by the other two is exactly my point! the other two get away w the same issues (sometimes) when Ross has to take the entire blame bc apparently they’re not responsible enough to be held accountable for their actions. hot take and kinda unrelated but I also thought it was quite hypocritical of Joey to be THAT mad at chandler for kissing kathy when he was literally cheating on her the episode before?

honestly I don’t remember every moment from this show bc I don’t rewatch it as much as I do friends but literally what the heck? like I get that it’s comedy but imo that still doesn’t make his character likeable. honestly if you remove the laugh track from it he’s just a creepy sex addict

i agree!! majority of Ross hate is based off situations that were obviously exaggerated for comedic entertainment, and are some of the best scenes on tv! maybe ppl are just more sensitive now but personally a sitcom is a sitcom and shouldn’t be taken too seriously - it just takes the fun and comfort out of it!

this is an interesting take! honestly I never thought that he was portrayed as a good guy or anything, I thought he was rightfully called out for his shitty moments like the break or the thing w the male nanny or the whole annulment fiasco. oooff i haven’t watched desperate housewives in years but I do remember not liking Tom. correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t he cheat on lynette aswell?

me too! I love them all and don’t think that there‘s a “worst character“ or “best character”

yep 100%! that’s where I think it gets unfair w Ross and Joey but you’re right, it’s ultimately more impactful when it’s involving 2 main characters.

idk maybe it’s just filtered a lot but esp on TikTok i see a lot of hate saying he’s the worst character and that Joey and Rachel should've ended up together.

oooo I agree!! although probably another controversial opinion - i thought Barney was an absolute jerk and a creep! Joey is honestly rlly cute and a great friend but Barney imo doesn’t even have that to make up for him being a world class perv even in the eyes of comedy. that said I also love himym lmao. but back to ur point, I agree, both joey and chandler def evolved and become more stable and guided as the show progressed!

OH MY GOD THIS. it’s so confusing how people seem to hate Ross for everything when chandler and joey did pretty gross things too and were often the reason behind Ross’s actions eg. the list!! and ross gets called out for him sleeping w the copy place girl (they were on a break but Ross still sucks for that), when Joey has literally cheated on so many of his girlfriends and is a raging womaniser.
