A 2 watt bulb just went off in her tiny mind.

Their infantile show deliberately pushed the culture into the degenerate, Stalinistic, humorless, sub-sewer we now find ourselves in. Revel in it, “Friends.” You built that.

You liberals didn’t take our humor. We still have plenty of great humor and we have fun with it all the time.

You just ruined humor for yourselves is all.

She was actually in one of the best all-time South Park episodes, about the Rainforest, which showcased the hypocrisy of the Enviro whackos.

No one would be after her dim bulb mind anyway.

Out observes that “nearly anytime LGBTQ+ people are brought up through the show, it’s played for laughs”

Here's a news flash: nearly anytime any character of any description appeared on the show, it was played for laughs. Comedies are sort of like that.

In the Soviet Union, older political officers told younger ones, “Try to say as little as possible and write down even less. What is politically correct and proper today will get you executed tomorrow.”

I didn’t give a $hit about the show back then and I certainly don’t give a $hit about it now either. I can think of an infinite number of shows I would watch in reruns before I’d be bothered with that one.

Maybe it’ll dawn on her that she was on that show for only one reason.

Well, two reasons

They should stop showing all the endless reruns and cut off their royalties so we can all feel better

Their game is intimidation and cancelling.

It's scarier AND more powerful if citizens don't know 'for sure' where the line is...(a line that is always moving). It's a totalitarian tactic - fitting for the goons and thugs running things.

IIRC Soap was one of the very first shows to feature a homo character. It’s been building slowly but steadily.

Well, until we hear from Allysa Milano, none of us will know what to think about things.

Like most of these comedians, she acts as though the loss of comedy is the worst thing about wokeness. Compared to the abuse of free speech on political, religious, social, and moral issues, comedy is insignificant. Another self-important Hollywood type.

Friends was about sleeping around with many people, swearing a lot and Jennifer’s headlights on all the time.
