Is Friends the whitest show in history?
It was obviously massively successful but don't you think Friends was the most caucasian show on television? Did they even have an ethnic minority character? What is the tea?
I'm white btw so don't @ me with "reverse-racism" I'm just curious.

Yes.
Sadly, back in the day we didn't have internet so the minorities didn't have a voice to protest ******** like that.

Ross dated a black woman once.
Probably, but I still love the show.

Um Ross's girlfriend Julie in the second season was of Asian descent!!!! And Charlie from Season 9 was black!! Ross, the multiracial dating chanteuse
Lol, yes it was very white. But it was such a good show
You'd think that the premise of it would get old after a few seasons but the chemistry the six characters had was perfect

I don't see the problem. There were all-black shows at the time as well.

I'm not from the US so I don't really notice what's a white or a black TV show.
It's the best show of all time, and that's what matters to me.

If a cast is all white you don't notice because you're not from the US?
The logic.
