when i started reading this article i thought it was going to be as possible as a professional opinion,but no offense it was nothing more than a mislead personal opinion based on false facts.

thats true the number of viewers decreased over the time but you have to realize that it was because of the time period its very hard for a sitcom in the 00's to achieve this kind of success unlike the 90's where it was the leading genre but still friends was in the top 3 and was the highest-rated sitcom for 6 years which is phenomenal for a sitcom going for 10 years especially after the year 2000(where the era of drama shows and reality tv began to take over),i understand you dont like the show,its popularity stayed constant althought it was down during the 6th and the 7th season but still it was the highest rated sitcom,and the drama of the show only added a sweet zest to the show,because it would be realistic for a 6 young people to be involved in romantic relationships...and of course i respect your opinion but the facts you wrote are misleading for the fans of the show or anyone who sees the article,and just for extra information,the show was not cancelled..the cast was tired on the 10-years-run,thats why it ended
