I hope you do Modern Family . It's different from what you've been doing. HIMYM is so similar to Friends and TBBT .

Oh my gosh I hoped you'd be cooking up a new show! I didn't know if restarting Friends would mean other shows were off the table, and I'm so glad you picked this one! I've been meaning to rewatch through it for years, and this is the perfect way 😄 Modern Family came out in 2009 and ran 11 seasons, and kind of kicked off a new wave of sitcoms in this single camera interview-style format. It's won 22 Emmys and the Golden Globe for best comedy. Being back in 2009, it was also one of the first primetime shows to focus on an LGBTQ couple figuring out parenthood, which is why we see the sort of opposing view presented in Mitch's dad - the show was a boon to bringing about a view of normalcy towards such things. Really hope you continue with the series!!

True. It would be a boring world if everyone agreed on everything. Like I will never agree that in a situation where a man and woman are both drunk, the guy is automatically a r***ist or that you can necessarily get mad at Barney for going for drunk girls when he is also in a bar imbibing and therefore is also under the influence. Both parties are and should be responsible for their own alcohol consumption and in a situation where everyone is drunk, either everyone consented or no one consented, you can't have it both ways. I also don't believe stupid lies about being famous or a genius or any of Barney's schemes removes the ability of a woman to consent, whatever she believes. In fact, I am familiar with the case law you referenced and in the few cases it has been applied, it is pertaining to non disclosed STIs or lying about being in a position of power to coerce individuals into sexual intercourse. That doesn't really apply here. I also don't think it's fair to label anyone who watches this comedy show and has a different 'visceral gut reaction' than you (i.e. finding it funny) as immature or suffering from arrested development as you have tried to do here. I will say that I didn't remember the confession and that does change things a bit although that isn't exactly nuanced either. Selling a woman would entirely fall under the nonconsenual category. But let's just agree to disagree.

Actually just finished MF and loved it from start to finish! I think it's a different option following on from friends. So funny and very heart warming/sentimental - Hope this one is picked :)

2025-01-29 02:22:02 +0000 UTC
Viera - Matter of personal preference which show you prefer of course. But interesting comment about the "non-growing caricatures" as that's something that, for me, has always come to mind with HIMYM ;)
I really like HIMYM S1-S5 but after that it falls off completely for me.
Chris B
2025-01-28 21:15:12 +0000 UTC
I really hope this one gets picked. In my opinion it's one of the funniest and heartwarming sitcoms ever.
if you need other ideas or suggestions; Scrubs and Malcolm in the Middle are also very good!

Egor eh... HIMYM is miles ahead of TBBT. it is based on many flashbacks,editing tricks, it is actually 3 dimensional, emotional, and the characters are not non-growing stale caricatures. Most importantly,
it has good multilayered humor and real emotional scenes. Not just referencing something nerdy and expecting a laugh for that reference.

I've never really watched MF but it looks fun. HIMYM is more like TBBT for me, so I guess this choice is more appropriate :)

It was my first time ever watching MF and i like it. I tried to watch HIMYM like 4 times and never got into it.
Dark D
2025-01-28 06:24:22 +0000 UTC
YES PLEASE!
HIMYM is too inspired in Friends, and you are already watching TBBT that has the same vibe and structure. MF is the best choice right now. Maybe HIMYM later, after TBBT.
Larissa Macedo
2025-01-28 00:34:03 +0000 UTC
Same I'm hoping so much that HIMYM gets picked 🙏
Michael Harrop
2025-01-27 20:55:39 +0000 UTC
I think MF would be a better follow up to Friends because it's a different structure, style and has different character dynamics. And it's just overall so much funnier.

Modern Family is great all throughout the series. Didn't think it was possible for me to have my all time fav replaced (Friends) but this one did it. Hilarious and heartwarming too. The writers did great on this one.

If that's a spoiler for a big plot twist, maybe remove this comment?
I was about to comment that I'd not gotten around to watching Modern Family so it would be cool to do a first watch with Nick Reacts. Now I feel a bit disappointed if that was a big twist
Jane Andress
2025-01-27 11:34:35 +0000 UTC
Whaaat!!!?? I never thought you'd watch this show. I think I need to resubscribe lol
Sage Martinez
2025-01-27 08:20:37 +0000 UTC
Thanks NIck for doing this. I got introduced to you via Friends. I really love friends and I can watch it any number of times - which I'm doing again with you and Quynh. My next favorite is Modern Family - I hope you will pick this. I think its a fantastic show and you will definitely enjoy it. Long before you started this - while I was watching your reactions to all the family dynamics in friends (Ross-Monica, Ross & Monica with their parents and cameos of other parents) I was always thinking you will love Modern Family.
Last time when it was BBT vs The Office - I was really hoping you'd pick The Office. I feel BBT gets a little repetitive after few seasons. And I think the same of HIMYM. Also, like others said - you just finished Friends, you are doing BBT and both are shows of group of friends. And HIMYM is also that. Modern Family is a better pick for that reason too, I feel.
Anyway, this is my first comment, so - thanks again. Appreciate all your content. I loved waiting for new Friends drop every Friday. I hope it will be same with Modern Family now. (And hopefully double drops as well, like Friends). I also love your movie reactions and watched many of them multiple times. Even if you don't pick Modern Family, I will be happy rewatching your Friends reactions again from the beginning.

Saw this posted on Youtube. You better believe I hopped into Patreon straight away. First FRIENDS, then TBBT, now Modern Family? Even if you do HIMYM, I'd be good. Patreon has been so much worth it from the past couple of years!

You know what, I am down for a Modern Family watch-through. that sounds great! It's a really funny series. And I remember not seeing the plot twist of them all being part of a bigger family when I first watched it.
Sarah_M
2025-01-27 05:40:58 +0000 UTC
YES, Modern Family all the way! It's really a great show. You love all of the characters for their own individualism, and their dynamic is so great. I would really prefer this over HIMYM (I really don't like that show, probably for the same reasons alot of people don't, but I won't say why). It does have it's moments, but overall no.
Laura
2025-01-27 04:45:46 +0000 UTC
OMG yes , I just started watching Modern Family, I've been hearing about the show for years but never felt like watching it and I thought people were overhyping it especially since I watched the first episode when i was 19 and it was okay, not that funny, but when I saw so many people here recommended it to you I thought okay I'd go back and give the show a chance and now I've finished the first season in a week and it's become one of my favorite shows I can't believe I've wasted so many years sleeping on this show.
I do love HIMYM too but Modern family not a bad show it’s really great and i hope you have fun watching it and you can also react to HIMYM any time later is not big deal for me I still love both shows , i think Sunday is no longer a boring day to me.😂

Actually there is a lot of nuance when it comes to consent, including lying. You can look up the case law on how lying in a way that materially affects whether someone would agree to sleep with you removes consent.
It is not used a lot, but it is there, has been used, and is VERY nuanced. Consent is only not nuanced when it is done appropriately.
Barny also confessed to leaving a girl in a foreign county after he was given cash or a Mercedes or both...so there is that.
But whether his lies or moments when he goes for drunk girls sometimes were of a material enough nature to remove consent or not, I think most people today would have a different visceral gut reaction to him today and his friends who enable him then they did when the show came out...unless they are suffering from a case of arrested development.
It's just an opinion. I still watch the show, as I don't think it is fair to judge the past by today's standards. I tell my kids, "don't get angry at the bottom rung on a ladder because it is lower. It was a necessary step in the right direction."
But I do notice, and it has a different type of discomfort then it did originally.
EDITE: I am not proselytizing a position, just giving an opinion. It would be a boring world if everyone agreed on everything.
Leenis
2025-01-27 01:55:11 +0000 UTC
Love both shows but Modern family would be a better change up for your from friends. As with other people on here, I would also like to recommend New Girl. It is hilarious and would be a great addition to your sitcom reactions eventually.
Jessie Quinn
2025-01-27 01:15:29 +0000 UTC
Kind of a weird take. There's no nuance with consent. If your're referring to Barney, who is really the only "problematic" character I can think of, he is obviously an awful human being but everyone he has relations with agrees to it. Just because he continuously lies about who he is doesn't make them any less able to consent to relations. He picks them up in bars and they go home with someone they just met. It's not great decision making on either party's part.

This show is groundbreaking for the way it directed. This is the show that made Sophia Vergara famous. The child actors are really good and The adults are amazing! Everything just gets so much better from this, so much funnier! I think it's a good change from the live audience, laugh track shows.

I would agree that Modern Family would be a better option first. Both great, you will enjoy both for sure. But Modern Family will be a good break for something really different to what you have been reacting in the past months
Gabriela Vargas
2025-01-26 23:31:52 +0000 UTC
Modern Family is a way better and funnier show than HIMYM(sorry not sorry) MF's comedic level is just as strong as Friends even tho this show are not "sitcom" style.
yadubi sawa
2025-01-26 23:27:41 +0000 UTC
Okay, I love both Modern Family and HIMYM so whichever you choose I'll be sticking around for <3
However, I think you should go with Modern Family. You've just finished Friends and you're doing Big Bang Theory, both are shows about friendship groups, which is also the theme of HIMYM. With Modern Family, you're filling that sitcom slot with something new and different that may also get you new subscribers, as well as appealing to a lot of your current fanbase.

I watched this when it came out. I feel like it wasn't super obvious they were all family. Had you considered it for a second you would have probably guessed, but the episode is so engrossing, well-written and funny, it's easy to overlook it. It's supposed to be a reveal at the end. I was pleasantly surprised too during my first watch! :)

I love modern family it is one of my favourites I subscribed as soon as I seen modern family reactions please keep them coming 😂 I also LOVED your friends reactions, friends will always be my favourite sit com. Another sit com I very highly recommend that is a little bit more similar to friends is ‘new girl’ it is probably the funniest sitcom I have ever watched and all the characters are so lovable. I’m excited to see more reactions!

HIYMYM is fantastic. I watched it as it aired. This is not a critique I like seeing, nor have I ever used it, but I started HIMYM again, and it is...ugh, but for lack of a better word, problematic.
It was really uncomfortable. It really highlights how sensibilities have changed. There is no nuance with consent, in fact it is played off as quite funny when it is not there. But it is a funny show.
It is kinda like The Goonies. I love The Goonie. Still do. My sister saw it is PG, remembered loving it as a kid, and so she showed her 4th grade class it. Well, she started to.
She had forgotten about all the swearing, and the maid, and the broken statue. She quickly turned it off. It doesn't mean she doesn't love the movie, but she realized her rose colored glasses obscured how inappropriate it is a a grade school class.
