Fans Callout ‘Friends’ for Being Unfunny as Jennifer Aniston Speaks Out How the Show Is Deemed ‘Offensive’ by an Entire Generation

With the changing times, people are becoming more aware of things that concern
them. However, when they did not know much about almost everything, comedy was
effective, said Jennifer Aniston in a recent interview. The former Friends star
opened up about how comedy has changed and people have become more offensive
about every comic thing.

Murder Mystery 2, starring Adam Sandler and Aniston in lead roles, is ready to
hit Netflix. While talking about the film in Paris, the actress revealed as per
Yahoo
[https://news.yahoo.com/comedy-suffering-because-careful-now-133647894.html]; it
has become tricky to create hilarious content for the comedians. She talked
about the beauty of the genre, comedy, and said it was because comedy meant
people laugh at themselves. It meant to make fun of life. However, in today’s
time, it is not possible to joke about things people find offensive.

Aniston remembered the days of the past and said when they made any hysterical
joke, they would have laughed at it instead of getting offended. It was about
educating society and the most crucial thing was how ridiculous people were.
