The only reason that this show is still popular is because it was the first sitcom to use the whole storyline and plot. It was the original, out a while longer than the rest. so as soon as Ellen and Drew Carey and all came out (not long after) Friends already had an audience, everyone thought these other shows were clones and friends was the best. It survives now only because the characters are very over the top, extreme and daft, not to mention dumb. They seem to try to hard to make you laugh, I think the directors just want to see what they can get away with. It has been announced another season of friends to be made, I'm gonna watch the last two eps, praying there'll be a really, sad ending, that'll finally kill the show.
