Super-popular and loved by countless viewers, the "Friends" series along with many other projects was no exception and after careful analysis was convicted of homophobia, sexism and racism. The new generation has spotted in many episodes the neglect and insult of people, which immediately found its spread in social networks.
So, many Twitter users have published their indignation about Chandler's repeated jokes in the direction of sex minorities, in particular, homosexuals. Also, spectators are indignant at the jokes over physical disabilities of people, such as, for example, mockery of the plump Monika. Users of the network say that in today's society such jokes should not be present.
Inappropriate jokes
Do not forget that the shooting of the series was completed in 2004, and time does not stand still and Hollywood is no exception. To date, the Netflix group has resumed the show, provoking a mixed response from viewers, many of whom assure that the series traces the line of discrimination and the project clearly lacks black characters:
"When I was a student in the 90s, I was impatient to run to the screen to watch my favorite TV series. But I must agree that the jokes about the fatty Monica and Chandler-homosexual are absolutely inappropriate. And Joey looks repulsive. "
"Obviously, Ross is seriously alarmed by the fact that his son plays dolls, there are practically no black actors, Monica is being bullied about its completeness, and Chandler is blushing for the ability to pluck his eyebrows."
"Without all these jokes about thick and ugly" Friends "were much nicer."
"I can not understand why such a reaction and accusations of racism and so on. You can briefly and clearly answer this question, including the description of Ross - "Welcome to the Nineties."
This is our youth
However, along with the indignant young critics, there were those who defend their favorite series and its right to live:
"I recently found out that the millenials, who first saw" Friends ", sharply condemn the project for the different there phobias and racism. I often review the series and, in principle, I do not understand why all this hype. Understand, at that time people still had a sense of humor, not what they are now. And every second did not take offense. Therefore, I can safely send all the disgruntled people away. "

"On behalf of our entire editorial staff, I want to say that the" Friends "TV series is loved by us today. It was our youth, our life. If we talk about the criticism that hit this project, then let's be fair. For some reason no one noticed that a couple of Ross's girlfriends were black girls, including Charlie, with whom many episodes had been filmed, as well as the fact that both Ross's ex-wife and Emma's nanny, lesbians, do not indicate homophobia of the series authors.
