Quinta Brunson blasts Friends for having no black characters


Saturday Night Live host Quinta Brunson decided to call out the lack of black characters in Friends during her opening monologue on the show.

During her opening monologue the Abbott Elementary creator explained what her show was like, drawing some parallels with that famous sitcom Friends, only with one rather clear difference.

She said: "It's a network sitcom like, say, Friends, except instead of being about a group of friends, it's about a group of teachers.

"Instead of New York, it's in Philadelphia, and instead of not having black people, it does!"
