Seriously, though, mojo: what about Ellen Degeneres? I think she's funny in a kind of funny odd way. And...though you may not get Saturday Night Live reruns...there are lots of funny women there! Well, a couple of them, at least.

I'm not an Ellen Degeneres fan though, i have to admit. Quote:
And Lisa Kudrow was the worst Friend? No way. Courtney Cox was rarely all that humorous but Jennifer Aniston really matured on that show I feel. Especially in later seasons, she really did become a much better comic actress. |

Phoebe was so qwuirky and unusual, and it was like STFU. Monica wasn't that funny, but she was less annoying. Chandler > Joey > Rachel > Ross > Monica > Phoebe |

Even if it was written by men, the fact that the women pulled it off shows that they come across funny. Courtney Cox is pretty funny in general, Cougar Town for instance.

Of course they can.
The girls here tend to be quite funny too. Vanilla, Kayleigh, Paloma and Tumor especially. |

You're right though, like Phoebe was just so over rated.

Every character had their own traits when it comes to what made them the character that they are and i think everyone had more opportunities for good comedy than Courtney Cox did. The reason i like Jennifer Aniston so much in Friends is that I think the Phoebe character was the only female character ever really given the freedom of expression to be genuinely funny and Monica and Rachel, not so much. I think Jennifer Aniston did a much better job with Rachel than Courtney Cox did with Monica. |

And yeah, Cougar Town is actually better than I thought it would be, Courtney is funnier than she's ever been, and she looks great for her age too even if she's probably had some cosmetic assistance. Aniston was the funniest of the girls though, I have been a fan of her and I still am. |
