Hello everyone,
From the book Friends forever:
The show wasn’t a hard sell. In a 2019 interview, Kauffman said, “We had competing offers, but [NBC] gobbled it up. The only change they wanted us to make was they wanted us to add an older character in the coffeehouse, who we jokingly used to call Pat the Cop.
Does "gobbled it up" in this context mean that NBC accepted (agreed to) that show very readily/eagerly?
Thank you.
