Yeah i'm British. We love Friends because it's funny, and an escape from those dreary depressing soaps.

but i read that a tremendous friends backlash has started in the uk (the uk press, anyway..); especially around the time when they were negotiating the 9th season; plus: i was trying to find on the web some information on whether you in britain have an equivalent to the emmies and whether friends has won any awards in the uk but i couldnt find anything; what is the top rated sitcom in the uk? i know that the simpsons are huge there with both the viewers AND the TV critics

We have the Bafta's and different TV awards, but they can be quite snobby, and Friends never wins any awards. The cast have being portrayed by the press as greedy. But that hasn't afected it's success

the jokes and their delivery, the interplay of past history of the characters and their present

Hey there.
I'm from the UK, South.
I have loved Friends ever since I first saw it way back then.....It' just an escape from reality along with it's sarcasm it fits in well with us Brits.
