imagine requiring characters to be generically "likable" to derive entertainment from them

Marshall is arguably the only likeable character, but that doesn't make it a bad show.

The only people using soyboy as an insult are the types that look like soyboys tbqh

and Friends had multiple likeable characters, just two unlikeable ones. Rachel and Ross

this was basically why I never liked the show. i watched a few episodes and it was just misogynistic and predictable. guess it took a hashtag for people to figure that out

It was predictable because it was a mindless sitcom, misogynistic to the point of being offensive? No. It's a comedy, and Barney wasn't looked to as the character of reason...

I feel like he's the show's most popular character. Maybe not within the fandom but he was hyped up a lot, both the actor and the character. Then I watched it and he was just a creepy loser. It's just another show like Big Bang and I have to accept people like them even if I don't understand
