Friends
Ever sinceFriendsended , over 15 years ago , sports fan have been looking back at the lineament and how they are written and their opinion on them have changed . The show is so dear , arguably even more than when it first aired , and fans still have strong opinions about their favorite eccentric , just as much as they did the first prison term around .
While some characters have become more dear over the year , others have become more unbearable . Some viewers are now ineffectual to dish out with how unacceptable some of these character are , and these opinion grow with every rewatch .
Updated on January 11th , 2021 by Matthew Wilkinson : Because the situation comedy has been such a democratic show , being passed on to different coevals , the character who audiences like only become more popular , while those masses dislike cease up being hated even more . The series attempts to make the characters as naturalistic and relatable as possible , and as with real - life itself , not everyone is a likeable person . Something that ally do a gravid job with is blending both appealing and unlikable people , giving the audience mass to root for , as well as hatred .
Most Likable - Phoebe Buffay
Phoebe is a bizarre character in a few different ways . asunder from being just a uncanny , far-out character , she is only likeable for one-half of the serial publication .
When she mature and as the show goes on , she have nastier , becomes a worse friend , and is just not likable . However , for the first few seasons , her free spirit and barren nature is a breath of impertinent air , making her a character many fan adore .
Fans Can’t Stand - Ursula Buffay
Phoebe ’s sister ? Not so much . Ursula gets systematically shown to be a pretty tremendous person and far bad than Phoebe ever is during her time on the show ( excluding her funny yesteryear , of grade ) .
She is hated by just about everyone , and rightfully so . She is used mainly as a enhancer for try out Phoebe ’s troubling fosterage and life outside the gang , and while she does have a abbreviated moment of positiveness when dating Joey , Ursula is ultimately someone devotee did n’t like .
Most Likable - Monica Geller
Monica Geller is one of the lead characters and is someone who has a brilliant story arc throughout the show . Sure , there are mo where Monica is a small act bossy and over the top , but she also has a huge center , is incredibly hardworking , and puts her friends above herself consistently .
Monica ’s storyline to strain and have a kid isthe most excited within the intact serial publication . Seeing her despair to try and start a kinfolk makes her incredibly likable , and her relationship with Chandler is one of pure fun and lovemaking , which is why she ’s such a great fictitious character .
Most Likable - Rachel Green
Rachel is not the most popular person on the show and she does have her critic due to her spoilt nature .
However , she has become such a pop culture image and is far more beloved than she is disliked . How she acquire and becomes potent and main is what makes her so likable , and this is also pretty inspiring for people everywhere .
Fans Can’t Stand - Mr. Heckles
Mr. Heckles was pretty much the sorry upstair neighbour in the world and a mo of a creepy serviceman , at that . Not only did he keep notes on the gang and their crusade , but he judge to claim animals as his own when they were not .
When he give out , it only really upset Chandler . at last , fans found him now and then shady , but not likable .
Fans Can’t Stand - Judy Geller
Put merely , Judy Geller just is n’t a very nice person . She ’s the mother of Ross and Monica and while it ’s obvious that she does care about them , it ’s also very unmortgaged that she favour Ross in a full-grown style . She ’s incredibly primitive to Monica consistently , criticizing her about everything within her life history .
Judy never see the positive in Monica , despite the fact she causes them no hassle and in reality has her life in much better shape than her pal . She ’s also very crude and raw to other hoi polloi throughout the serial , and while she can come out with some funny consequence , overall , she ’s very unsympathetic .
Most Likable - Mike Hannigan
Mike Hannigan is by far the in effect exterior of the group Latinian language to bug out up inFriends , and the only one to in reality stick around until the end of the show . toy perfectly by Paul Rudd , Mike was likeable in just about every way .
leave his police career to pursue his passion , standing up to his snobby parent , overcoming his fear of re - marriage , and dealing with Phoebe ’s weirdness , Mike was just a great guy cable . He brought so many curious import , and he ended up being someone that fans wished had been around a lot longer .
Fans Can’t Stand - Emily Waltham
On the other end of the spectrum when it comes to meaning others , Emily Waltham was the opposite of Mike .
While Ross did make some fault , Emily was horrible . From not telling Ross she was already figure somebody , to making Ross not see Rachel anymore , she was a stuck - up , selfish adult female . She even got married bare months after she and Ross disjoint .
Most Likable - Gunther
Gunther is incredibly awkward and very shy , but that does n’t stop him from being one of the most likable characters in the entire serial . Outside of the lead character , nobody makes more show than Gunther , with the Central Perk barrister often popping up to make screaming one - liner towards the mathematical group .
Whether it ’s his thoughts about how much he have it off Rachel ( and in twist hate Ross ) or the moments when he gets to just be part of the group at party , Gunther is always very risible .
Most Likable - Joey Tribbiani
Joey Tribbiani is pretty much wholly loveable . While there are some problem with his character development , he continue credibly the acquaintance who cares the most , loves the most , and who fans find the most systematically lovable .
Hemay get dumberfor no rationality , and some may have number with his womanizing ways , but overall , very few fan dislike the lovable and huggable Joey Tribbiani .
