Phoebe Buffay. I love quirky unique characters. Phoebe was just something else. She always marched to the beat of her own drum and did not care what anybody else thought about her. I would love to have that carefree attitude in life.
When I was younger, I did not think much of Chandler or Monica. But as a grown-up, I have such a deep appreciation for Chandler's sarcasm and biting humor. And beneath that scathing veneer is a genuinely sweet guy. Monica, too, could be off-putting with her high-strung OCD personality, but she was genuinely nurturing to the gang. Chandler and Monica also made the sweetest friends to lovers story arc. I also think that Chandler is the most handsome of the guys.
I do not like Ross slander either. It's almost become fashionable to dump on Ross. I'll admit, Ross isn't the best boyfriend. He's needy and gets jealous easily and isn't the best communicator.
Carol cheated on him. He's allowed to complain about the cheating and feel hostile to Susan. It shows great character that he not only showed up to her wedding to Susan but also walked down the aisle.
He does sweet things like buy Phoebe her first bike, gives up a TV appearance to help Rachel, is willing to step aside for Joey with both Charlie and Rachel. He's a flawed human, but one with his heart in the right place.
