Friends or Frasier?
With both shows having gone off the air this year, NBC lost its two biggest cash cows. Which one did you prefer?

I will go with Frasier (in spite of Kelsey Grammar's political beliefs). Friends was entertaining but overhyped and it jumped the shark after 7 seasons. Frasier was pretty consistent until the end.

3. never watched Friends . . . enjoyed Frasier until it . . .
jumped the shark, around the time Niles and Daphne got together . . . downhill from there, imo . . .

4. i haven't watched either one in years...

8. Frasier!
Mainly because I got to love the characters so well it was a pleasure to watch even when it wasn't particularly hilarious. Frasier's comedy favored Terence rather than Plautus anyway.

I grew to despise the people on Friends, especially Ross, that whining little boy. Eeeewwww!

9. Hate Schwimmer just as much as Niles and Frasier
so I'm not sure if that's a tie or not. Judges?
Jennifer, Courtney, Roz, and Daphne? Oh yeah baby. That's another tie.

10. I am probably the only person on earth who has never
seen an entire episode of friends. I have seen clips. I loathe Jennifer Anniston who is the most overrated sitcom star there is. I loved Frazier .It had clever dialog and great plot devises.The ensemble was terrific.

12. I've never seen an entire "Friends"...
It was just twaddle.

Although Lisa Kudrow makes me amourous...

Frasier had some good moments, IMHO...

I don't think I've seen more than acouple of episodes.

I guess I'm just not a TV watcher. Never saw an entire "Seinfeld", or "Survivor", or "Friends"...but I've seen every "Simpsons" about 100 times!
