Re: How strong is Chandler's connection to the sitcom character?
in reply to a message by Nix
See, 15 year olds liking the show Friends as though it's still current is what I mean about young people seeing the name Chandler fondly. I still think there is a retro element to it... I mean, Friends went off the air almost 20 years ago, before they were born. It's a dated show - to me, an old person. But I notice that in many ways younger generations don't see dated things the same way we oldies do. It's still alive for you guys because it's so accessible. You refer to Friends as a currently "successful" show, and the fact that it's been dead for almost two decades doesn't faze you. That's amazing and really different to the way I remember thinking when I was 15.
