Friends Actor Calls Sitcom’s Lack of Diversity ‘Insane’
Despite being widely acclaimed as one of the greatest sitcoms ever made, “Friends” is frequently discussed in terms of its representation in the entertainment industry. Initiating in 1994, this show had very few Black actors in significant roles throughout its decade-long run. Looking back on it now, actor Adam Goldberg finds it hard to believe that such a fact was true, as he played Eddie Menuek, Chandler’s roommate who replaced Joey for three episodes in 1996.
