Friends was problematic and overrated but damn if I didn't enjoy it for what it was, that being fun slop to watch while I'm winding down with friends and family.
So this and David Schwimmer outing himself as an unapologetic Zionist in the same week (not that it was too surprising) does feel like a kick to the gut.
God fucking damnit
I never watched Friends and I only knew Schwimmer from Band of Brothers. His acting in that show was amazing and this is disappointing news.
I couldn't take Schwimmer seriously in BoB which I watched well after Friends
He played the perfect little "talks a lot of shit but can't back it up" petty asshole role.
When you learn he's a coward and then he takes his petty frustrations out on Winters and the NCOs and then the higher officers force him out and Winters gets to lead the company after the next in line officer dies on D day. It's so satisfying.
Yeah the fact it happened now is such a whiplash. Like I feel bad for his family and friends, but it comes after feeling that way for a far less powerful people the past month.
