I like Friends. I realize it is fluff and popcorn, but in the end it was very well done. I recently watched it all through, and I still like it.
Emma thing was just too far fetched, and the show jumped the shark's fin there. I still like the last seasons.
Aaron, one thing - trust me, first two seasons are NOWHERE as good and funny as, say, seasons 4-7. Although seasons 3 and 8 are quite good, too.
And as to my currently favourite quote, it comes from the mouth of my fave character:
Joey: You didn't cry when Bambi's mom died?
Chandler: Yes, it was so sad when the guy stopped drawing the deer.
Really, David Schwimmer was fantastic as well.
