No show compares!

"Friends" is one of the most watched shows out there, there is not a show that comes close to comparison with "Friends" and its characters.

Uproar of the fans!

The backlash Netflix received from the "Friends" fan base when they announced they would not be renewing the show. Renewing it was obviously the only way to wash out that storm from the fans!

Number of viewers

If Netflix went through with taking down "Friends" they would have lost a huge portion of their viewing base, there are so many "Friends" fans out there that watch it every day. Taking the show off Netflix would have harmed Netflix instead of benefiting Netflix.
