To me, a banal show is much more offensive than a bad show.
There was a show years ago called Homeboys from Outer Space. It was as awful as it sounds, so obviously no one watched it and it tanked.
But Friends just kept chugging along, doing nothing to justify its existence as a piece of entertainment but somehow insanely popular anyway. I find it as inexplicable as the popularity of some of the big influencers I’ve seen who act like they couldn’t give less of a shit to be in front of a camera.

If you’re not going to try, don’t try.
