Despite beingone of the most beloved and acclaimed sitcomsto date,Friendsis not without its faults.
A lot of those faults lie in the simple fact that some storylines and jokes havent aged well.
She marches to the beat of her own drum and often has some of the kookier storylines.

Because ofRosss insecurity and, lets face it, toxic masculinity, Rachel begrudgingly agrees not to hire Sandy.
Its just an extremely weird and toxic storyline.Justice for Sandy!

The whole storyline was strange and predatory, andeven for Ross it was wildly out of character.
His flesh and blood!
Its completely gross, and honestly, the whole storyline regarding Cassie is weird.
