Is it true that the Black American wasn't into the classic smash hit TV show F.R.I.E.N.D.S

[Nature's Fury]

Bc that corny shyt is what replaced black TV on NBC. Networks relied heavily on black sitcoms and when they got their cache up they cancelled all of our shyt network wide for yuppie white corny TV shows like Friends.
Watch this @ 4:45 specifically




Seinfeld is GOAT though

no they didn't UPN was poppin with black shows well into the 00's...all those channels still had black shows in their rotation...

everything in that vein, black and white, started getting cancelled because them corny ass Law and Order/cop/political type shows started gaining traction and bringing in more viewers per episode than most these station saw on daily time slots...

 

[Vilified not verified]

UK brehs didn't have an equivalent so they were forced to adapt to cacomedy.

Not true, we had Desmond's and The Real McCoy show, great shows worth checking out.

to answer your question properly,certain black folks would not watch it because it really does not break the traditon of progressive television. certain black folks would watch it because it is entertaining.

Damn medical shows with love triangles and that whole 'give a nickname to the relationship' started taking off..

fukking Greys Anatomy with the mcdreamy shyt.


UPN was popping well into the 00s like you said..shyt just started getting replaced with reality tv fukkery though . (EX.Making the Band )

Watch the whole video. They touch on all of that to a degree.

I didn't watch it. But I did fukk with save by the bell. I was an actual kid during the shows prime time.

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

How the fukk did I forget Fresh Prince?

That show seems universal..still gets burn.

Uncle Phil had jokes, but didn't allow the fukkery to get too far out of hand

Fraiser >>>>

I watched the first 8 episodes of Frasier like 2 months ago and the show was still as funny as I remembered it.

Never watched when it originally aired but now I’ll catch reruns where Jennifer Aniston or Courtney cox aren’t wearing a bra or nipples are hard.

 

[JordanwiththeWiz]

I use to watch that show and everybody loves Raymond, Frazier, King and Queens, that 70’s show, Seinfeld basically all the cac shows I watched growing up because that was the only thing on when I got home from school because I never had cable growing up

 

[K.Dot]

Literally the most cac shyt ever created. I have seen actually cacs admit that shyt is too "white", even for them, actual cacs.

Saved by the Bell was most certainly watched by black ppl during its run if you were at mininum over 30 years old now.
Seinfeld...i understand why people liked it so much but it wasnt the show for me
Married with Children was the greatest white show of the 90s and top 10 in its prime
Friends was terrible...I didnt get what was funny or entertaining about it. ..i remember my sophomore year i came back to my dorm and my 3 roommates (all older white dudes) where in the living room watching TV...watching a Friends rerun laughing their asses off...could not understand it
