Stargate for me because aside from being a great show FRIENDS is mid

 

[Y2Jayne]

I have seen the whole Friends series several times, I am currently rewatching it and reaching the final season, it still makes me laugh after all these years.

 

[Keith]

Not a massive Friends guy, but it’s solid and would pick it here.

 

[John McHenry]

I feel friends is over rated.

 

[Comrade Khan]

I feel friends is over rated.

me too, SG1 is a much better show with much cooler stories. I will never understand the Friends obsession personally

 

[Spitfire]

SG1 - without shadow of a doubt one of the best sci fi series of its time. Friends is just another mid sitcom

 

[John McHenry]

It's okay for some laughs here and there and for me that's a barely. But there's no story, there's no real character development (Joey, Ross, Phebe, Rachel) never grow as people. Hell even Malcom in the Middle had character growth and story arcs.
