Again their living room had to fit six or more. There are episodes where they have six people in Lucy’s house but rarely is it more than four or five.

Seinfeld had 4 main cast and they rarely had anyone else in their places other than the main 4. No one needed to fit a dozen people in a room.

Were you renting living space in NYC in 1994? I was.

Do you know anyone with a ridiculous place because of rent control policies? I know several. Everything about the show makes sense within the context of the time once you realize that eight or so people need to fit on the stage in many scenes

So writers are like "we will write a sitcom about this poor family of 10. Let's give them a big house to fit them all". That is ridiculous.

I won't continue debating with you. I am amazed at how are you trying to justify everything about the show. Actually you are like the ones I saw on the fan sub on Reddit.

They were like "How can we justify them having the place we know we need them to have?" and worked from there.

I know a guy living on Central Park West with 2000 sq ft two floor apartment with park views that was paying less than what I paid for 1k sq ft in the middle of Queens. That's a nicer place in a better area than Friends had for less than 3k a month thirty years after the show all because of rent control.

We know they all came from money except Joey and Phoebe. They could also be getting money from family.
