Phoebe is the only character I feel “gets it” when I see the show on. Her performance is probably the strongest candidate for one that can hold up to modern scrutiny.
And it’s not like the others are doing a bad job. They are doing what they are supposed to (and more) and they do a good job of it. But there’s just something about the way she is written combined with the performance she brings to the table that makes her stand out to me
She’s the only really relatable character, next to early season Joey, it’s hard to relate to Ross, Rach, Monica and Chandler unless you grew up somewhat rich, Pheobe, like most viewers of the show, grew up somewhat poor and has had to struggle and earn her way to be where she is.
It’s funnier than Big Bang Theory, well Pheobe is.
Getting kicked in the balls is funnier than the Big Bang Theory.

Also if anyone says they relate to Ross, run.
