if you had to cast the sitcom friends with six different portrayals of a dracula, who would you choose?

which dracula is your chandler, your phoebe, etc?

show your work.

    I have seen absolutely no Friends episodes and barely remember their names so this sounds like an ideal exercise

    Chandler as The Count because he sounds like he's kind of a nerd maybe and now he can be a nerd who counts things incessantly.

    Phoebe as Morticia Adams because I don't remember any female Draculas and this is the closest thing.

    Danny Devito as Fred the Vampire Accountant, because he definitely seems like a nerd but a nerd who's actually doing something productive and I'm not actually sure if Danny Devito is in Friends or not I might be mixing it up with a different show.

    Ross as Alucard from Hellsing because he's the largest of the Friends and Alucard is one tall bastard.

    Rachel as Alucard from Castlevania because she can fight and he's pretty good at that along with shit talking Belmont.

    Monica as Dr. Alucard from that one Batman series because I know nothing about her and I know nothing about that series so clearly this is perfect.

    I misunderstood the prompt on Twitter.

    Do the Draculas have to fit into the Friends cast molds?

    Everyone on Friends sucks (I will not provide citations for basic facts), so you have two options:

    1. Any random Dracula, as all Draculas suck, at a technical level - it's what they do.

    2. Dominic Purcell plays every role, as he sucks, and sucks.

    I believe I have shown my work.

    i haven't watched an episode of friends in at least a decade, so i will not take questions at this time on the inaccurateness of any of the above

    The only one I feel confident on is Gary Oldman as Bram Stoker's Dracula (specifically the old man makeup version) as Ross, because he's kind of a lovesick idiot who nonetheless has way more luck with romance than he should

    My retake of this exam will focus on how Keith-Lee Castle from Young Dracula looks like he might enjoy a sandwich, and thus will be a good Joey.

    When that also fails, the subsequent retake will focus on how Dante Rivero's Dracula should play Ross, since he'd then have to fight Batman, and Ross has that coming.

    - Gary Oldman from Bram Stoker's Dracula as Ross (lovesick dweeb who is nonetheless surrounded by beautiful people)
    - Adam Sandler from Hotel Transylvania as Chandler (oversized, twitchy goofball)
    - Max Schreck from Nosferatu as Phoebe (just weird, through and through)
    - Bela Lugosi from Dracula as Rachel (the sort of person Gary Oldman's Dracula would put on a pedestal)
    - Marvel's Dracula as Monica (feels like he could fit in equally well with the comedy or drama half of the equation)

    It's just the one neck, between some bread.

    Until KFN introduces the Double Down, where the bread is two fried necks.

    Are we talking about which Friends member would murder someone over a sandwich?

    Cause while you may think its Joey, it's Ross by a mile.

    One of my favorite elements of Friends is that I think it is by far the most literary-centric sitcom ever produced.

    Not too many sitcoms have plot-lines about reading books.
