Friends.

Even its worst episodes are watchable and funny.

TBBT was hilarious and quite different when it started. But it's gone beyond unwatchable to me now.

It's gone from having its own niche to trying too hard to be "the new Friends" to the point where it fails at everything. Even the actors seem bored now and they're earning a million dollars a week. Lmao.

Friends and BBGT were both good at the beginning, but when time passed and the shows grew older, they lowered their quality. Friends was okay at the start, then they heightened their quality and then lowered it somewhat time after time until they were canceled/series ended, but managed to be very funny most of the time.

BBGT was very good/excellent at the start and by season 3-5, it still kept being quite good/okayish, but by the time Amy discovered her sexuality/Howie-Bernie getting serious, it started to go downhill first slowly for a few seasons and then fast tracking and it has gradually stayed on that course, not slowing down ever since.

Answer: Friends is better as it kept much of it´s funniness and quality throughout the years.

I didn't even know The Big Bang Theory was that big? Especially to be on Friends' level. I know for the last season of Friends the cast were earning a million dollars an episode each so I'm shocked The Big Bang Theory are on the same kind of money.

Friends because TBBT is an awful, unfunny mess and I have no idea why it's so popular

I've not really watched much of Friends, but from what I've seen of it it's a bit average.

And TBBT after the first 3 seasons went really downhill, it should be about the guys being geeky, not about them being ashamed of who they are because the girls are "better" for being "normal" and "hot" according to the programme which is all pretty subjective when you have Amy complaining at Sheldon because he dared to faint at the sight of blood.

Or the fact that Sheldon was originally an Asexual character that's now being made to be Heterosexual.

So I probably would vote for Friends, although give me Arrested Development, Community, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The IT Crowd, Fawlty Towers, Allo Allo, Malcolm In The Middle, The Middle, and The Goldbergs anyday.

They are not even comparable. Friends is a great TV show and BBT is not even slightly entertaining.

In episode 1 Sheldon is preparing to donate sperm and Leonard mentions he's a "semi pro" at masturbating. So asexual he was not.

Simply 'No Contest' for me. Friends is one of the most perfect sit-coms ever produced. PERIOD.
