When friends fail, there’s always ‘Friends’

Fri., March 6, 2015

Last Friday, we asked our Facebook friends to tell us their favorite TV show of all time. That was also the day actor and director Leonard Nimoy died. Many of the responses paid tribute to Nimoy, saying “Today, it’s Star Trek” or “ ‘Star Trek,’ live long and prosper RIP Leonard Nimoy.” Here are some of the other responses:
