How Friends Is An All White Reboot of Living Single?

Earlier today, David Schwimmer proposed an “all-black” or “all-Asian” reboot of ‘Friends.’ The ‘Friends’ star spoke to The Guardian, in a recent interview about his new role in Intelligence.

Twitter went absolutely nuts over David Schwimmer ridiculous comments:

Can someone explain to David Schwimmer that Friends WAS an all-white reboot of the all-Black Living Single? https://t.co/A82J5Q3kWo

"[Friends] went out into an all-white New York. Our New York, our Brooklyn, was as diverse as it is in reality.” – Yvette Lee Bowser, creator of Living Single https://t.co/oeXglMzt32

Friends was an entertaining show and it’s a TV classic. The show was like a fake reality of Living Single. It didn’t really show the true New York any of the seasons. The show was truly an “unseasoned” version of Living Single.

Living Single aired for five seasons on the Fox network from August 22, 1993 to January 1, 1998. The show centered on the lives of six friends who share personal and professional experiences while living in a Brooklyn brownstone.

Friends aired on NBC from September 22, 1994, to May 6, 2004. The show starred Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer, the show revolved around six friends in their 20s and 30s who lived in Manhattan, New York City.

Does this sound familiar?
