Because it's still on TV.

I never thought it was funny. Mediocre and extremely overrated tbh

I didn't know people hated it. But this forum bears mostly teenagers, so an old sitcom like F.R.I.E.N.D.S may be dated and alien to them. They compare it to current TV shows, unaware that most of their favorite sitcoms take inspiration from it.

There will always be haters, no matter how loved something is by most people I think Friends is a great show but not perfect.

They don't hate the show, they hate Jennifer Aniston. Let's face it , she's a hack. The show is great tho, one of the most entertaining shows ever.

To be ~edgy~ and go against the grain

Because they resent its impeccable receipts (all ten years in the top ten, the last nine in the top five, one at #1, Emmy Award winner for Best Comedy Series, fourth most watched series finale of all time) and covet them for their own faves.

They're Seinfeld stans.

I hate it because it's painfully unfunny

Yup. Jennifer Aniston is a total hack. Never liked her on the show.

Because they have no sense of humor.

I've never liked it. I didn't grow up with it. It isn't interesting to me.

I loved that show?

Because It's awaful, and very very VERY overrated.

is not funny tbh

I'll be honest, I just never found it funny. It had it's moments though (usually involving Phoebe).

Phoebe was the shining star, while Jennifer was trying her best to take away as much air time from her
