Earlier this year, Netflix, a multi-million dollar media provider and production company, announced they were removing the 90's sitcom "Friends" from Netflix. Apparently, they decided to remove the show because Netflix lost a bidding war with WarnerMedia, and it has cost them up to $100 by running the show for 5 years. The TV show will be moving from Netflix to HBO Max.

For me, someone who has rewatched "Friends" at least 3 times, I can't wrap my head around their decision, considering this show alone probably provides a large amount of the profit the company is making. "Friends" is a sitcom from the 90's that has stayed as popular now as when it was airing. It is a show that has never gotten old, and It is one of my favorite shows to watch.

Not only is "Friends" a huge influence on TV sitcoms today, the show also inspired it's own fashion statements, as well as hair styles. That is how big of an impact it made on television in the 90's. But this is not the reason I, as well as so many others, are upset about the shows sudden departure.

"Friends" is one of those shows that you never get tired of, and one that never ages. Even though the show first aired more than 20 years ago, it is still one of the most watched tv shows on Netflix. For me, I like shows and movies that can make me laugh rather than a drama. No matter how many times I have rewatched the show in its entirety, I always find it one of the most enjoyable shows I have ever watched. I don't know what could be taking the place of "Friends", but it better be good.

When "Friends" said "I'll be there for you", I was hoping it would be for a little while longer.
