Episode 44 - Aged and outdated (F.R.I.E.N.D.S. case study)

The Comedy Kiosk

When does a show or film become aged and outdated? Has the world changed to that extent that something that was acceptable 30 years ago simply shouldn't exist today? Or it just wouldn't fly with the audiences? Has the humor changed, has the society changed, or have we just become more sensitive to things meant to be light and simple?
On an example of the hugely popular and loved TV series F.R.I.E.N.D.S., and based on the article found on https://www.cbr.com/friends-aged-poorly/, Igor and David try to address these questions, and how fair or harsh is it to judge an old IP by today's standards.
