A message to Rachel from Ross,
Aah! Oh, that's fuzz. That's fuzz.
About do we really want Ross and Rachel to get together?
About life and true friendship.
About the show as a group, that we will do this.
Across all platforms.
Action.
Action.
Action.
Actually kiss is gonna be on national television."
Actually, it looks really good.
Actually, it's "Miss Chanandler Bond."
AdiĂłs, arrivederci, au revoir.
After seeing that,
After that, we always did it.
After the show was over, at a party or any kind of
After the table draft, you came to me and you go,
All these guys were fantastic.
All those good things in order for there to be stories.
All those years ago.
Alright, fine. You go ahead and you do that.
Alright, ladies, ladies, you're up.
Alright, ladies.
Alright, let's cut.
Alright, okay, guys, you're up.
Alright, Ross?
Alright, Tom, you have a bonus question.
Alright, we got one.
Alright, well, where's the tissue box?
Alright.
Alright.
Alright.
Alright. Alright. I get it, Ross.
Alright. Okay.
Alright. Okay. Let's go...
Although it's pretty empty, it's a great place.
And "Friends" was what I came home to.
And "We wrote this for you."
And "What do you want?" And at first, it's very jarring.
And a huge, like, chunk of meat came off my nose.
And be able to make new friends, especially ladies.
And boost our confidence
And costumes over the 10 seasons of "Friends,"
And Courteney had a pink babydoll tee
And cut.
And David Schwimmer starts telling them to pivot.
And do its thing right at the, you know, at the perfect time.
And do you even have a point?
And Elliott said to me,
And fell face first into the toilet.
And for the first time through the casting process,
And for those who don't like the show, just, uh...
And forged this very tight relationship
And genuineness about her, where she just made you feel
And give it to you.
And had to go to the bathroom, and I got up too fast.
And he killed it, and he got the part as Joey.
And he said, you know,
And he said... he goes, "I I saw that show.
And he... he came on board.
And hiding it, which did give us a lot of funny stuff.
And how come you never said anything to me?
And how that's gonna happen.
And how your character just came to life
And I actually, tail between my legs,
And I can't believe I'm telling this,
And I completely agree,
And I could hear the helicopter over my house.
And I hit my nose on the bottom of the toilet seat
And I just kind of went to pieces.
And I just looked at him, and I went
And I just remember sitting with these five other people
And I just won $1 million.
And I know when you think of Sputnik,
And I know you. It was all so calculated.
And I once heard them say,
And I realize what, like, this true addiction
And I remember looking at it going "What the ..."
And I said to my daughter, "Watch this.
And I said, "Please release me from this show.
And I saw it and I asked you,
And I think it kind of created...
And I think it was on the final callback.
And I think she was like the advocate for her kids,
And I think we both at some point,
And I think we've all been there.
And I thought, you know, I know her.
And I told the truth and got the job so...
And I was like, "Oh, okay. That's why I've been losing out
And I was like, "Well, I don't understand."
And I was like, "Whoa. Holy shit. This is crazy."
And I was like, "Yeah, that's a good idea."
And I was tired from digging the huge hole.
And I was weeping.
And I wear overly tight trousers.
And I went just to jump over the coffee table
And I'm a potato.
And I'm always in hotels.
And I'm like, "Oh, look at that. Let's see which one it is."
And I'm looking close at the screen, and my roof is a mess.
And I'm looking in the mirror and it's bleeding.
And I'm thinking,
And if a joke didn't land, even if we loved that joke,
And if it had... if CBS had picked it up,
And immediately resonated with people.
And it comes alive.
And it happened to be the one with the leather pants.
And it just wasn't... it was... it was time for Marcel to...
And it makes me smile to almost the point of crying.
And it said "fast talking New Yorker,"
And it was an aerial shot, live, of each of our houses.
And it was an incredibly lovely, moving night.
And it was his iconic line and I was so excited.
And it was nothing.
And it was really, really, really funny.
And it was so moving.
And it was the last part we cast.
And it's funnier than anything they could have ever said.
And it's inconceivable to me that there weren't
And it's like a big, ugly scab on my nose.
And it's not healthy for sure.
And it's... it's...
And Joey runs and jumps into the chair.
And Joey walks in and he goes...
And just open and give... give the monkey live grubs to eat.
And just waiting for, you know, for us to roll,
And keep them located just on our sets
And Marta Kauffman said, "What happened to your face?"
And meanwhile, my husband, Jeffrey, was writing
And Monica and Chandler are in bed together.
And my husband to marry me, and that's exactly what I did.
And my legs went up in the air
And my rabbi stopped me and asked me about Ross and Rachel
And my shoulder came out of the socket.
And names were...
And next up, perhaps the most famous look of them all,
And none of it...
And nothing really in that dialogue suggests
And one day we came to work and they said,
And producing on "Mad About You," and he said,
And quite quickly, everyone gets into trouble.
And scene.
And she was right.
And so that was the end of filming
And sometimes director of "Friends."
And sure as shit, I've got some leaks up there.
And that combined with when the monkey was resting
And that kind of sucked me into it.
And that Phoebe was gonna be happy and had a life.
And that she herself was more of a Monica.
And that this was the only guy to play it.
And that was at the beginning, so we thought we were on a roll.
And that was it.
And that was it.
And that's just such a great feeling to carry forever.
And that's the show where Ross and Monica
And the chair fell over.
And the creators of the show are here tonight
And the final time, you came in.
And the girls are the winners.
And the minute I set eyes on him and he opened his mouth,
And the show really taught me the things
And the way... do you remember how
And the whole time, you couldn't drop the ball.
And then after that,
And then came about two and a half months
And then goes to pull the door open.
And then he comes back and it all escalates.
And then hearing all of you for the first time,
And then Jennifer came in.
And then Joey remembered something.
And then just... and I didn't know that that's what you did.
And then someone from Warner Bros. actually was
And then we get the script and, of course,
And then we had a blast.
And then we lost.
And then we'd stay up all night watching it together.
And then you go on to another pilot."
And there's so many comedy skills there.
And they had already shot six episodes of this show,
And they kiss.
And they start taking the couch up the stairs
And they wouldn't laugh, and I would sweat
And they've got to take him to the hospital.
And thinking,
And this is just a simple yes or no answer.
And thought "This show is never going.
And to watch a famous character say his famous line, come on.
And was it always purple, that wall?
And we are... I should say we are shooting now
And we discussed perhaps sort of ambivalent endings
And we even shot not only the pilot,
And we had to beg him and beseech him.
And we need to pay attention.
And we only hung out every night.
And we ordered pizza and beer, people signed the flats,
And we really did feel like their parents.
And we really did feel we were because they're so sweet.
And we really saw Courteney as kind of a Rachel at the time.
And we saw actor after actor, and it wasn't funny.
And we thought that could be a show.
And we thought we'd take a look
And we took this big risk to cast her,
And we went, "No, this is 'Friends.'
And we were eating dinner and "Friends" is on.
And we would listen to the audience.
And we'd have some fun with it afterward
And we'll see who wins.
And we've literally just sort of slipped right back
And what's Phoebe doing?
And when I heard that on my car one day,
And when I'm feeling a little bit low,
And when Matthew reads that dialogue, it sparkles
And when they were gonna get together
And where's Joey?
And with Michael J. Fox on "Family Ties."
And would love for all of you
And writer Marta Kauffman.
And yelling and behind barricades.
And you are making me laugh every day.
And you know what?
And you told me to mind my business.
And you were going to talk to that person
And you were like, "Maybe we can have fun with this."
And you were not... you were scared.
And you were struggling with it all week long,
And you wrote it on the table,
And, David, I know that at the time,
And, ladies and gentlemen,
And, like, slipping and smacking yourself in the head.
And, of course, we had one of my idols, Sean Penn.
And, um... I can't.
And, yeah, I don't want anyone's happy ending unraveled.
And... and just, like, go into convulsions.
Anything massively comic.
Anyway, everybody, oh, my God.
Anyway, I I tried,
Are masters of physical comedy.
Are trying to keep it a secret that they've been hooking up.
Are we gonna watch this? His arm getting pulled out?
Aren't you gonna give me a kiss?
As far as bridesmaid dresses go,
As it's probably getting in the way now.
As the Holiday Armadillo.
As they're both like, "Oh, my God, what did we do?"
At least to me,
At some of those iconic costumes right here tonight
At the door staring back at her.
At the end of the hall there.
At the taping of "2194"
At the top of their game, and great chemistry.
At, you know, an elementary school.
Auditioned at the network, at NBC with another actor,
Averaging 25 million viewers a week.
Basically any place I went,
Because each character is so distinct
Because he has a huge speech to make, and he's nervous.
Because he's not just a character.
Because I don't believe the acting that I'm doing,
Because I felt I had friends around me.
Because I know it's not true,
Because I was like, "Somebody is getting a laugh.
Because I'm a clean freak.
Because if she doesn't, people die.
Because it wasn't even an episode
Because one of us was always in a relationship.
Because the monkey didn't do its job right.
Because there was a pilot that was coming into
Because they hired me in second position,
Because we haven't grown.
Because you all make me laugh so hard.
Because you just walk into my room
Before I found out about you.
Before they got back together.
Ben. One of our biggest laughs ever.
Big center table here, and Enger would cook...
Bless you. Maggie Wheeler, everybody.
But back then, we had three per camera.
But can you complete the lyrics?"
But everything Courteney brought to it
But go ahead and announce that again.
But he takes the cushions with him.
But here I'm thinking "Greatest actor in the world,
But I couldn't.
But I do remember you're the first person I saw.
But I feel that way about anything I do
But I kind of blacked out, as you do,
But I know I'm part of the Geller family.
But I mean, as a woman, you have to take control of your life.
But I would sometimes say a line,
But it was a really hard working night for us
But it was like two ships passing
But it was such a powerful moment
But it wasn't until I was walking through the airport...
But like anything good, it's sad when it's over.
But none of the rest of the cast knows.
But on "Mad About You," she had more of an edge.
But once he got them on, he couldn't get them off again,
But probably three episodes of "Friends"
But right after, you have to tell me who the hell you are.
But Ross doesn't know. So you have to stop screaming.
But she still is in charge of the bake sale
But so desperately wanted to be part of the show,
But so we just channeled all of our adoration and love
But the different one or the one that was really herself.
But the funny thing about it is
But the monkey didn't hit its mark,
But the only other people who really knew what it was like
But the second time I came in and looked like this.
But the way the audience reacted,
But there was just too much pressure, so... so I, uh...
But they also worked so well together.
But they had to understand you had met somebody special to you
But they were on every magazine.
But this will be the last time that we're ever asked
But to watch you guys, I was just so proud to be on the show.
But together, you get this great repartee, all the actors
But was there anything that you didn't like?
But we waited until he was okay again
But what inevitably began to happen
But what they do in that time
But why didn't I get points for getting the name right?!
But you had this, like, big speech,
But you remember the beginning of the week
But, um, I'm gonna go use ugly naked guy's bathroom.
But, you know, we have such a bond
By the end, it got smashed.
By the way, Griffith Park has the best picnic areas.
Came in to help Joey.
Can I just say something?
Can I just say...
Can we hear it again?
Can you identify the voice?"
Cara Delevingne, ladies and gentlemen,
Cara Delevingne.
Cara is modeling Rachel's bridesmaid dress
Casting the show was really hard,
Celebration of that.
Chandler and Joey have been fighting over this chair,
Chandler and Monica are standing close together.
Chandler and Monica! Chandler and Monica!
Check it out, check it out, check it out, check it out.
Christina Pickles and Elliott Gould, everybody.
Come on, I want to see everyone.
Come on, let's do a huddle. Come on.
Come on.
Could he be wearing any more clothes?
Could I be wearing any more clothes?
Could I be wearing any more clothes?
Could you be any later?
Couldn't believe all these people
Courteney brought this incredible joy to the character.
Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer,
Courteney, Courteney, is that correct?
COVID tested.
Creating the arts program and the music thing and all that.
Cue the music.
Cut!
Cut.
Cut.
Cut. Alright.
Damn.
David was not a fan.
David, how have you found this time?
Did she get off the plane?!
Did someone call for the long arm of the law?
Did we all sign this at the end?
Did you go next door?
Did you take anything from the set besides...
Did you tell the doctor you did it
Didn't quite realize how far it would go.
Difficult to conduct an interview.
Do not take it off.
Do you enjoy them when you watch them?
Do you have a question?
Do you know what the difference is?
Do you remember the episode where
Do you remember the first table read ever?
Do you remember what color you were?
Do you think he knew I was here?
Do you want to sit for a sec?
Does Courteney still have her lines written on the table?
Does it seem smaller to anyone else?
Doesn't matter.
Don't.
Done. Okay.
Each one of them is a leading character.
Each team will answer a set of trivia questions, okay?
Eh. See...
Eliot, Christina, I'm keen to know,
Ended up taking the longest amount of time to shoot.
Enjoy Los Angeles.
Even if they don't know them. I am one.
Every little thing, like pulling the pants up
Everybody ended up getting in on it.
Everybody was screaming
Everybody's got their favorite episodes.
Everyone will leave.
Everyone's lives are very nice, and they would have to unravel
Everything came together.
Eww!
Excuse me. Excuse me.
Fantastic.
First of all, I want to say I love animals.
Five, six, seven, eight.
Floopy, stop.
Floosh!
For a pilot we'd done the year before.
For a spin?
For all of us on "Friends"
For each other into Ross and Rachel.
For me when I watch it, it's... I'm...
For the cast of "Friends"?
For the rest of the night.
Four cameras, like, the choreography was incredible.
From Barry and Mindy's wedding in Season 2.
From Fred Segal with a white trim.
From having done this show
From here to over there.
From London and Monica and Chandler
From this lineup...
Front and back is correct.
Furious, Rachel locks the three locks on the front door.
Gentlemen?
Gentlemen.
Get in here. Come on. Get in here. Hug it out.
Gidney, tell me something.
Go wait in the hall.
God, I had so many...
God, I hate her, Ross. I hate her.
Good for her.
Good to see you. You all look great.
Good.
Great seeing you guys. Great seeing you.
Great to see you.
Great. Now. Thanks.
Gunther himself, everybody!
Gunther himself.
Guys who liked women, but they weren't funny.
Ha ha, I win!
Ha ha, I win.
Had like $11 in his pocket when he auditioned.
Has anybody got a question tonight
Hat in hand, went to the producer of the show I was on
Have fun, pal.
He cannot play at our wedding.
He did.
He enjoys them more than I do
He goes, "Then we should go out drinking."
He had already signed on for another sitcom.
He hadn't done an awful lot.
He ran in, he looked at his mark...
He spins the lines in a way that they're his.
He storms out.
He'd done another show, but he hadn't done an awful lot.
He's got jokes. He's got, like, actual real jokes.
He's had a miserable experience doing another show.
He's here.
He's here. It's Gunther.
He's joining us on Zoom right now.
He's moved back to Chicago to just do theater.
Heads.
Heckles!
Hello, James Corden.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
Hello. Oh, you smell good, too.
Her kids are probably not even in... you know,
Here I am on the set of "Friends"
Here was my problem.
Here we go, pivot.
Here you go.
Here's Courteney Cox.
Hey, guys. Hey, do you remember the one
Hey, how you doin'?
Hey, I was doing great before I found out about you.
Hey, I've been doing it since the ninth grade.
Hey, it's me. Coming in.
Hey, it's Phoebe.
Hey, that's the answer.
Hey, there was one Italian guy, okay?
Hey, what's up, everybody?
Hey! Hey, you guys! Hey!
Hey.
Hey.
Hi.
Hi. Is Rachel here? I'm her sister.
His hangdog expression stuck with us.
Honest, this will really make me cry,
Honestly, I remember saying one time to David,
Hot, good looking, successful actors.
How about "Here's where I win all my money back"?
How are you doing?
How are you feeling to be together,
How are you?
How are you? Ohh.
How can you keep straight a face?
How could it not be?
How did you do that?
How did you do that?
How great, though, ultimately,
How many pages was that letter?"
How much do you have that's good?
How much do you stay in touch?
How often do we have steak on the menu?
How you doin'?
How you doin'? Damn it, Carl.
However, I'm...
Hug it out. Hug it out.
I always used the corner...
I believe we sent him gift baskets.
I better not do any, I don't know, lunges.
I can't belie... Oh, I just looked right at you.
I can't believe Emma's still asleep.
I can't believe I never realized how... how great it is.
I can't believe you didn't say me.
I can't handle it.
I can't quite be specific about which one,
I cannot tell you how incredible it is
I could not have imagined just a better experience.
I couldn't stand. I couldn't... I couldn't walk.
I did a pilot a year and I thought,
I didn't know then.
I didn't know you did that.
I didn't know, like, kind of what to expect coming into this.
I didn't try, Rachel, but things got in the way,
I do remember what Courteney and you wore.
I do. I know. And Joey knows.
I don't hear from anyone.
I don't know how we got through actual scenes.
I don't know when that happened.
I don't know why it was so funny.
I don't remember how... I remember what you wore.
I don't remember that.
I don't remember what the boys wore.
I don't remember what,
I don't remember where I was going...
I don't think we can turn anymore.
I don't want to see pain.
I feel emotional about it now that I think about it.
I felt like I was gonna die if they didn't laugh.
I felt this rewarding feeling.
I felt very, very special.
I felt, after the initial shock
I found my Monica.
I found myself, like,
I got off the plane.
I got stung.
I got the ladder out and went up on the roof
I got the stage fright.
I got to say, great question.
I guess it was, I don't remember what day of the week.
I guess so.
I had a major crush on Jen.
I had gone... I had gone with a friend of mine to run lines
I had to call the roofer and have them come over and fix it.
I happened to have the news on, and on the TV,
I have memory issues.
I have no recollection of the gift basket.
I have nothing against animals.
I have really enjoyed today. I really have.
I have the original ball from the foosball table.
I have to do this."
I haven't done this in a long time.
I hear someone.
I I grew up there.
I I just... She lives in me. That's it.
I just can't believe that you think
I just couldn't bend that way, so...
I just happened to be in the kitchen with Maureen
I just love these people and I am having so much fun."
I just put it on
I just started crying.
I just thought everyone was so perfectly cast.
I just wanted to make sure I factored in there somewhere.
I knew it was going to be awesome
I knew it was going to end, and I didn't want it to end.
I knew it!
I knew that is the way I wanted to ask my soul mate
I knew you were gonna do it.
I know it!
I know what'll get us up on a platform.
I know. I know. I actually know.
I know. It's worse than you imagine.
I know. What are we going to do?
I like that. Great.
I love "Smelly Cat." It's one of my favorite songs.
I love primates.
I love the episode where they've just returned home
I love the Thanksgiving ones, but I also... I loved
I love this apartment. Isn't it perfect?
I love this show that I'm doing right now.
I love you so much.
I mean, come on.
I mean, it was an incredible time.
I mean, Jen, what were your first impressions
I mean, that was like... I watched it the other day,
I mean, this is an incredibly selfish, self involved,
I mean, this is beautiful.
I mean, this is incredible.
I mean, this is the good... this is the hunk.
I mean, we definitely pulled from our lives.
I mean, we were really, really proud of the show,
I mean, will you allow me to ask
I need to get... I need to get a laugh too."
I need to watch this series.
I never knew she did that. And I saw it.
I put on "Friends" because it makes me smile.
I realize that "Oh, I'm a... I'm a potato."
I really enjoyed the energy of the audience, though.
I really wanted to savor every minute of it.
I remember I had gone in a bunch of times,
I remember one time I was... It was middle of the week,
I remember that moment, all of us up
I remember they were awfully nice to us.
I said Larry Hankin.
I say transponster.
I still think it's better when it's just me.
I think "Friends" has this magic
I think he probably opened a sandwich shop in Venice Beach.
I think it's 2.
I think my character, Monica, is still really competitive.
I think my favorite was I was dropping my kids off,
I think one of the reasons "Friends" is so funny
I think people were starting to say, "Hey,"
I think that moment was the beginning
I think that should go to the girls, then.
I think that's why we didn't do it.
I think we ended up getting married, and we had some kids.
I think we were in 18 different languages.
I think we've got another question.
I think you were... you were doing a lot of theater.
I think you're like Joey 100%,
I thought back on the very first year or two, you know,
I thought Chandler was gonna be the easiest part to cast,
I thought I was gonna pass out from the pain.
I thought we just sent him the script.
I thought, "Oh, God, I'm gonna lose it.
I told you we wouldn't have to get up.
I took a neon coffee mug.
I turned to Chandler.
I want one.
I wanted to help,
I was a gay man who wanted to have hair like Jennifer Aniston.
I was at a very dark place.
I was battling depression.
I was in too much pain.
I was kind of hoping that wouldn't be an issue.
I was like, "Have I won the lottery?"
I was like, "Oh, my God."
I was like, "What is this?" She goes...
I was like, "What the hell?"
I was like, "Yeah, but that's the brilliance."
I was like, "Yeah, kind of."
I went like this the second time. I came running.
I wish he would.
I woke up in the middle of the night at his apartment
I would imagine I've seen them all.
I would like you to be more serious about this.
I would think to myself, "Oh, if you think that's funny,
I wouldn't eat.
I'd have to say, I'm most like Monica
I'd seen this thing on the Discovery Channel.
I'll cancel the sodas.
I'll tell you, it's hot with all this stuff on.
I'm a potato."
I'm a single mom, and, you know, society pushes us
I'm an animal lover.
I'm co creator, executive producer,
I'm David Crane.
I'm getting married today!
I'm getting married!
I'm going to cry now.
I'm gonna crack up.
I'm gonna cry.
I'm gonna go down and ask each of you,
I'm gonna tell you something.
I'm incredibly anal, I'm neurotic as hell,
I'm keen to know what are yours.
I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
I'm laughing out loud once in every scene
I'm like, "I don't buy a word of it."
I'm really thankful, and I love you guys so much.
I'm so glad you guys didn't because I don't know...
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry. I haven't.
I'm sorry. I take it back.
I'm still on London time. Does that count?
I'm the co creator and executive producer of "Friends."
I'm the executive producer
I'm... I'm gonna need a little help
I've always got downtime.
I've got a piece of a Kleenex.
I've gotten pretty damn good at it.
I've had a very long, hard day.
I've seen every episode.
I've watched you put things together and it was brilliant.
If I didn't get the laugh I was supposed to get,
If I had to, I'd pee on any one of you.
If the show was about that time in your life
If we win, they have to get rid of the rooster.
If you leave now, I will chop off my hand
If you think about Monica or Phoebe or Rachel,
If you were to see it on the page initially,
Imprinted in our neural pathways
In "The One With the Unagi,"
In carrying that couch up those stairs
In fact, we used to worry about them quite a lot.
In front of the iconic fountain
In Monica and Chandler's apartment,
In which Monica asks Chandler to marry her.
Interior, coffee house late that night.
Is one of the funniest things I've seen on TV.
Is that correct, gentlemen?
Is that something you'd ever even contemplate?
Is that... Does that feel right?
Is the fact that these six actors
Is this blowing anyone else's mind?
Is this the spoiled one or the one that bit her?
Isn't there any way that you could just let me off the...
It aired in over 220 territories.
It all seems small to me, the whole stage.
It became a reason for me to wake up every day
It doesn't look like anything till I stand up.
It feels the same to me.
It gets Joey every time. I don't know why.
It goes Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
It got in the way. Yeah.
It is, however, noisy...
It is.
It just sounded insane.
It just suits her very well. It's spectacular.
It really was.
It seemed like you weren't getting...
It was a brief thing,
It was a completely different ballgame.
It was a fun night,
It was a huge crew.
It was a situation that we couldn't...
It was about luggage handlers in the future at LAX.
It was exciting. You're putting on a show.
It was just a joy to work with them.
It was just born in the moment.
It was life changing, and it forever will be.
It was like a Nerf ball.
It was not just the end of a series.
It was really important for us to end everyone in a good place.
It was so funny.
It was the end of 10 years of relationships.
It was the most memorable 10 years of my life, honestly.
It would have been such a different show.
It would not have probably been as great.
It would sit on my shoulder and the trainer would come up
It'll be like when he rapped at my "butt" mitzvah.
It's a buffet, man.
It's a buffet. It's in trouble.
It's actually 100% completely the opposite of interesting.
It's actually quite understated.
It's amazing.
It's as if I didn't.
It's astonishing that he's even managed to make that look cool.
It's beautiful and it's lovely.
It's beautiful. Look at that.
It's been COVID tested.
It's been so fantastic and exciting.
It's certainly the way it works with all of us.
It's Cindy Crawford.
It's fat. I drank fat.
It's gone.
It's hard to watch myself,
It's impossible not to realize and see that you were all young,
It's in trouble, like I'm gonna go eat it all.
It's just some of the stuff is so great.
It's just the way it is.
It's Larry Hankin back as Mr. Heckles.
It's like doing a one act play every week with all of us.
It's like seeing someone pack up your childhood home.
It's like the Beatles were there.
It's Matt LeBlanc!
It's nice to have a boyfriend.
It's no longer that time.
It's not like there's a lead and they have friends.
It's not your turn!
It's on the end.
It's one of those episodes that when I'm away
It's part Russian satellite, part potato.
It's pretty cool.
It's really weird.
It's Santa's half ******* friend.
It's so fun because we the audience knows,
It's so heavy.
It's so weird, 'cause I was walking down the street
It's so weird. Walk that way, buddy.
It's Sputnik time,
It's the guy who lives downstairs.
It's the Holiday Armadillo.
It's the most infectious laugh in the world.
It's Thomas Lennon, everybody.
It's three actors carrying a couch up the stairwell.
It's too late. I'm with somebody else.
It's true. It's true.
It's very, very not interesting.
Janice, Janice.
Jen and I, our first kiss,
Jen, you come back in, everyone shift up.
Jennifer had a similar problem to Matthew in that
Jennifer had this warmth and sincerity
Jennifer is gorgeous. Why is it such a phenomenon?
Jesus.
Jesus.
Joey eventually gives up his seat,
Joey finds his identical hand twin."
Joey kept screaming at me, "Do it, do it, do it now."
Joey sits in Chandler's chair,
Joo!
Just I think we all just fell right into our same old...
Just not great actors.
Just please also state that I don't cry like this
Just really...
Just the chemistry, the whole thing.
Just think this through. Think it through.
Just to get you.
Just, like, a funny visual set piece will be,
Just, like, stupid things that you would do.
Kevin, there's a lot of changes coming.
Knowing that they have saved more lives,
Ladies and gentlemen, it's Mr. and Mrs. Geller.
Ladies and gentlemen, James Michael Tyler,
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome James Michael Tyler.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Jennifer Aniston,
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage
Ladies and gentlemen, the cast of "Friends."
Larry Hankin, everyone.
Let's be honest, none of you had other plans.
Let's go look at the dressing rooms.
Let's go see where we did the huddle.
Let's talk about favorite episodes.
Let's talk about Janice for a moment.
Like every Chandler,
Like Lisa, I hadn't seen it really in 17 years
Like very little, if any, dialogue with him.
Like, bits kind of timed out, and it would get messed up
Like, break them in half, these squirming, live...
Like, the monkey,
Like, the pilot, opening the umbrella.
Like, there were moments we would, like, cuddle
Like, we ate every meal together.
Like, we're not going to do this again in 15 more years.
Like, you have tears coming out of your eyes.
Lisa Kudrow was the second one
Lisa was someone who came in and nailed the audition.
Lisa, has it crossed your mind about, you know,
Lisa, your laugh. Oh, my God.
Look at all of us.
Look at that.
Look at that. Justin Bieber, ladies and gentlemen.
Look at the chairs. The chairs are here.
Look at this.
Look at this.
Look at this. Look at all of you.
Look who it is.
Looshy. Hi.
Lord knows why we had to shoot it a fourth time.
Made Monica so much richer
Madeline, this here steak was supposed to be rare.
Maggie Wheeler, everybody. It's Janice.
Maggie Wheeler.
Maggie, if you perch in here for us.
Maggie, if you perch on the corner here,
Marry her.
Marta and David made it clear to me, made it known to me
Marta and I looked at each other,
Marta and I spent our 20s living in New York.
Marta Kauffman, David Crane, Kevin Bright are just sat there.
Matt LeBlanc, if I remember correctly,
Matt, can you hit that button?
Matthew Perry is so funny.
Matthew Perry, and Matt LeBlanc, the cast of "Friends"!
Matthew Perry's here.
Matty, that was your idea. You remember that?
May 5th. Why?
Maybe if I wasn't going commando.
Maybe it was $9, but it wasn't a lot.
Maybe we could do a movie?
Memories just flashed back
Michel and I started watching some of Season 4,
Might need to squeeze up there.
Mm hmm.
Modeling Ross's leather pants from Season 5,
Monica famously chose Chandler over Richard.
Morning, Ross.
Much more so than I think we expected it to be.
Mwah. How are you?
My eyes! My eyes!
My family was more starstruck about it than we were.
My favorite episode has to be
My mom bought me the DVDs of the whole series
My most favorite episode on "Friends" is the episode
My name is Kevin Bright.
My sister on the show.
No one really prepares you for what that's going to be like.
No, because that's all up to Marta and David,
No, but thank you. Thank you.
No, I don't remember you ever saying that.
No, I know, but it's weird to look at myself.
No, I remember that.
No, I...
No, I'm kidding.
No, it happened to be on the one episode
No, it's just about the friends.
No, it's the greatest thing in the world.
No, no, it's not interesting, okay?
No, no, no, no, it's going down too far.
No, no, no, no, no.
No, no.
No, no.
No, that's impossible, though,
No, that's what we lost the apartment over.
No, they aren't. Are they really?
No, wait, "That's my monkey."
No, Warner Bros. fire department
No, we're not. We will not wait that long to get together.
No, will, the mystery voice please reveal himself?
No! Joey, we swore we'd never tell.
No! No!
No.
No.
Nobody knows, really.
Not enough so that it made it the Courteney Cox show,
Not just for us, but for people who watch it.
Not to jump on the bed.
Not... Not every night.
Not... Was it okay?
Nothing against your show.
Nothing happens by accident with you.
Now I got closure.
Now the coin toss to see who goes first.
Now, how are we doing?
Now, I should say there was somebody very,
Now, I'm going to give you some stats, okay?
Now, there's been some incredibly memorable outfits
Now, throughout tonight,
Obviously, it was trained and it had to hit its mark
Obviously, the show came out
Of course I did.
Of course that's you.
Of doing a true ensemble.
Of how we rethought Monica and Chandler,
Of just being in the same room together,
Of the rest of the cast
Of their historic sitcom.
Of, like, jokes coming out of the bathroom.
Oh, 'cause it was the Halloween episode.
Oh, are you pulling on it? Are you pulling the wrong arm?
Oh, geez.
Oh, God, we're just so excited
Oh, here's where I win all my money back.
Oh, I I'm just making a list of people's birthdays.
Oh, I love her.
Oh, I thought someone tried to pull on it.
Oh, I thought we never found out, though.
Oh, I wish he would.
Oh, it's tails, and the boys go first.
Oh, look at you.
Oh, look, there's Monica and Chandler.
Oh, man.
Oh, Matty, it's good to see you, man.
Oh, my God, that's good.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Alright.
Oh, my God. Did she get off the plane?
Oh, my God. How are you?
Oh, my God. I didn't say that. Wait.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. That's amazing. Whoo!
Oh, my God. That's still... That was on the other day.
Oh, my God. You're Sputnik.
Oh, no, I don't.
Oh, no!
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, oh, he's a transponds... transponster!
Oh, shit.
Oh, Soap Opera Digest.
Oh, that's a good choice, gentlemen.
Oh, the beam is back.
Oh, the one thing missing...
Oh, there's mine.
Oh, these are bloopers?
Oh, they're sitting in their chairs.
Oh, weird.
Oh, yeah, I felt like that every single night.
Oh, yeah?
Oh, you heard it.
Oh, you know what?
Oh!
Oh!
Oh! Mr... Mr. Henkel.
Oh! Oh!
Oh! Oh!
Oh.
Oh. That's interesting.
Ohh, yeah, oh, yeah.
Ohh.
Ohh.
Ohh.
Ohh. Ohh.
Okay about everything else that Rachel was
Okay, everyone, gather up.
Okay, good.
Okay, Gretchen? Just a moment, please.
Okay, guys, you're up.
Okay, here we go.
Okay, here we go. Pick your category.
Okay, I mean...
Okay, I will.
Okay, I'm just gonna go get your check, then.
Okay, It's All Relative.
Okay, ladies, pick a category.
Okay, okay.
Okay, should we get some coffee?
Okay, should we get some coffee?
Okay, so one of the most exciting things was I got
Okay, so what are you saying?
Okay, somebody call it this time.
Okay, thank you so much for coming out to be here tonight.
Okay, the test is ready.
Okay, this is from "The One Where Everyone Finds Out."
Okay, your turn.
Okay? I'm happy. This ship has sailed.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay. Here we go.
On a couch or something.
On all of these roles over these years.
Once "Friends" had gone global,
Once you have family of your own,
One of my favorite moments from "Friends" is the routine,
One of the times we listened to the audience the most
One week, I wouldn't go out.
One, two, three.
Only in the reunion.
Only, uh, I couldn't.
Ooh, quack, quack, Donald Dodo.
Ooh. Holy crap.
Or call someone, they're going to pick up.
Or do you have some time?
Or had the script in the sink.
Or I remember meeting everyone the first time.
Or I'm gonna beat you to it.
Or whatever the hell it was that you felt for me?
Or you want to see how long
Or, uh, ex fiancés, or... or... or Italian guys.
Orange juice and what looks like cider.
Our friends, our closest friends couldn't relate.
Our same old kind of joking around like we're a family.
Over the course of these seasons.
Ow, ow, ow. It happened right there?
Paleontology, still a paleontologist.
People have been waiting 10 years
Perhaps off screen romances.
Pervert! Pervert!
Phoebe and Rachel have tagged along with Ross.
Phoebe was a much more positive image.
Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebe, Phoebs, Phoebe.
Phoebe's married to Mike. They're probably in Connecticut.
Phoebe's mind is totally blown.
Phoebs, check it out, check it out, check it out, check it out.
Phoebs, check it out, check it out, check it out, check it out.
Phoebs, check it out.
Phoebs, Phoebs.
Phoebs.
Pivot!
Pivot!
Pivot!
Pivot!
Pivot!
Pivot!
Pivot.
Pizza's on the way.
Playing Fake Joey, ironically.
Playing with bones, and...
Playing with bones.
Playing with the bones.
Please identify Joey's hand twin.
PTA, you know.
Put him in 'Friends.' We'll be okay."
Rach.
Rachel Green.
Rachel Green's sister on 'Friends, '"
Rachel sees what Phoebe is seeing.
Rachel was the hardest part to cast,
Rachel. Rachel... I think we're... did we get married?
Rachel's putting up chairs.
Ready?
Really emotional. Really, really fun, actually.
Remember our marks?
Remember when Ben... when we went over there?
Remember when we all used to fit through that door?
Right here. Let's go.
Right there, number 2.
Right, because you only had a year
Right. Here's the answer. And it's...
Right... as we usually do.
Rolling Stone. I mean, we're a TV show.
Ross enters agitated.
Ross is hurrying everyone up
Ross.
Sat in the audience.
Save it. Thank you.
Schwimmer, the episode where you guys were throwing a ball
See ya.
See, Joe, that's why your parents told you
Share her with this other show
She carries that tray to the doctor
She could be a really unlikable character.
She elevated the material.
She exits. Phoebe looks out the window.
She not only did everything we'd hoped,
She steps slowly towards the door, then more quickly,
She unlocks the first lock, the second, the third,
She'd already signed on
She'd been in the Bruce Springsteen video
She's just got to keep things going.
She's my friend and she needed help.
Shoot, hardly ever.
Should have taken the whole table.
Showcased in some type of a, uh, entertainment venue?
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
Shut up! Shut up!
So "Friends," you made 236 episodes of the show.
So "Friends" was a way to boost our morale
So before we shot that night, I erased it all.
So how do you make a story where you put everybody in one room?
So I guess this is it.
So I had no...
So I have to go in for the big callback.
So I should be Phoebe for this.
So I think that was really...
So I thought, "Here we go. This is gonna be great."
So I'd have monkey grubby hands all over, all over.
So if you'll just wait, watch this.
So in come all the paramedics and whatever,
So it was a little bit more than just the pilot.
So many... So many different episodes are like
So Matt went right down to the wire,
So much of my dialogue within these apples.
So people knew Courteney.
So thanks for having me over.
So the atmosphere on tape night was always crackling.
So the journey is unexpected."
So the monkey... the monkey would be sitting on my shoulder,
So the really great thing about "Friends"
So the show came, I think, to a natural end.
So there's no shoulders outside of this group
So this kept happening over and over
So to make a long story short,
So watching that episode got me thinking
So we had time to really ruminate and think about it,
So we had to put that into the show,
So we have to start again.
So we would put our heads together and try to beat it.
So we'd have to... we'd have to... we'd have to reset.
So what started out to be the simplest "Friends" episode
So what you have there is a rare steak.
So when the helicopter flew away,
So when there's a secret like Monica and Chandler are dating,
So when they sleep, they should relax
So when we started doing Ross, that was in our minds.
So when you weren't looking, I erased it before we shot.
So you can imagine how lonely I sometimes felt.
So you guys are together. You're happy.
So, "Friends" was obviously amazing for all of you,
So, Matthew and Jen, you were in another show.
So, that's right.
So, yeah, I think you're Joey
So... And we never crossed that boundary.
Social gathering, if one of us bumped into each other,
Some of that was you had to do some bottle shows.
Something deep in your soul calls out to me like a foghorn.
Sometimes late at night, I can still hear the screaming.
Sorry, you got lost behind the beam.
Sorry.
Spoiled... in the wrong hands, you don't like Rachel.
Straight down to this purple door.
Stung bad.
Suddenly it was like "There's our Chandler."
Suddenly there are thousands of people gathered.
Sure enough, first time we kissed
Sure.
Sure.
Take a seat.
Take off your robe.
Take one, five cameras.
Take some grubs... take some grubs,
Tell us about your experience making the show
Than we know you.
Than what we had originally intended.
Thank you for being here, Maggie.
Thank you so much for being here tonight.
Thank you so much for being the person
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Matthew, for inspiring that.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you. And thanks for carrying it along.
Thank you. I'll take it. COVID tested?
Thank you. You are most insignificant.
Thanks, guys.
Thanks.
Thanks. I'll take it.
That "Oh!"
That combined... See, you didn't have to deal with it.
That I can also take charge of my own relationship.
That is nice.
That last day, seeing them strike the set,
That night, right after I called wrap...
That scene in the coffee house when their first kiss,
That show's not gonna make you a star."
That they could hold a television show by themselves.
That they ended the show very nicely.
That they had written the role of Ross with my voice in mind.
That thing with the leather pants.
That was great.
That was his idea.
That was it, that was the end of the night.
That was like, "Wow, this is not your average television show."
That was much more entertaining than my story.
That was nice. It was, like, private.
That was not bad.
That was one of the best episodes we ever did.
That was the end of the season,
That was the... I don't know if this is the right way to say it,
That was when he and I were fighting over the chair.
That we didn't do that night before we started.
That we knew we had to explore it more.
That we were all massive fans of.
That yeti is one smooth talker.
That yeti is one smooth talker.
That you and Chandler know me and Rachel better
That you might get this apartment.
That you might have passed judgment on.
That you'd been told about were starting...
That, you know, any time you text
That... That's 'cause sometimes I just do it through the wall
That's alright.
That's amazing.
That's correct. Seven.
That's fire, you jagoff.
That's my monkey.
That's not even a word!
That's paleontology.
That's right, 'cause we were sort of like,
That's right, I stepped up.
That's right.
That's right.
That's right. I'm taking the essence.
That's so nice.
That's superpowers.
That's the best moment I've had in months.
That's the first time I laid eyes on any of you.
That's the one time we didn't do it.
That's true. I remember.
That's what I hear.
That's what I said. That's not even a word.
That's what you do for a living.
That's why you never see any pictures.
That's why, um...
The "Friends" finale and their farewell party.
The "Friends" reunion.
The audience has been waiting. Let's just go."
The audience went insane.
The best way that I can describe it is
The big... yeah.
The bloopers were so funny.
The cast of "Friends," everybody.
The cast, they know how powerful
The categories are "Fears and Pet Peeves,"
The cushions are the essence of the chair.
The delivery service of a sofa,
The door flies open, Ross rushes in, grabs her,
The fact is, like, no one was going through
The first three episodes of "Friends."
The game's over.
The greatest script.
The important thing is that we dealt with it well.
The is that?
The kind of impact they partially made in this world,
The minute it was over...
The need to even eat was a problem.
The night itself was very difficult to get through.
The one sentence pitch is it's about that time in your life
The original cookie jar is at Lisa Kudrow's house.
The other actor ended up in the show
The quiz, the embryos.
The routine.
The show has been watched over 100 billion times
The six of you right now?
The sling was written into the show?
The stage the next day.
The tension, it was just palpable.
The theme song became a hit on a radio station.
The thing about that scene is it's so simple.
The third time, I went to pull the chair over,
The world was starting to change?
The... It was just perfect.
Then eat it, and then he'd just go like that.
Then Matt came in and suddenly on him, the lines felt funny.
Then she stops, leans on a table and drops her head.
There are seasons I've never seen.
There are so many different scenarios
There was a lot of energy.
There was a real sense of love for each other.
There was always a script in the sink.
There was just a little problem.
There was never a good time.
There was one thing that we did every show
There was some discussion in the writers room
There we were in our 20s in New York
There were firemen in the episode.
There were firemen on the set.
There's a lot of fans here.
There's a scene with David Schwimmer
There's maybe a page of dialogue,
These are Ross's incredibly tight pants,
These I think can be operated by just one person.
They created the show.
They didn't have... No, no, no.
They had kids.
They had the screen split into six boxes.
They have no idea
They hold each other's gaze.
They knew their characters so well,
They start taking off each other's clothes.
They were funny, they were engaging,
They were my friends since I didn't really have any.
They were telling us it's not good enough.
They would challenge me to try even...
They would sleep together in London,
They'll never understand.
They're all in it, and we're done for the night.
They're always funny.
They're on the cover of Rolling Stone.
They're probably graduated.
They've somehow entered the zeitgeist.
This character needs a laugh because I'm not gonna be able
This has been an emotional day for all of you.
This is all I care about.
This is funny. Watch David."
This is gonna be fun.
This is great.
This is great.
This is how old we are. This is what laptops were.
This is not something that's gonna go up the stairs.
This is the letter.
This is too weird.
This sort of, like, we are actually family.
This surely is a high point in her modeling career.
This was going to be different, we promise.
This was here in the beginning, and...
This was so great.
Those are my hardwood floors.
To "this could be a thing" thing.
To a show called "Muddling Through."
To a TV show means.
To be here with all of you now.
To be in this scene where I'm in the apartment
To come to my retirement party next week."
To film the ending of "The One Where No One Was Ready."
To freak you out.
To get cast in "Friends" right after David.
To get through a single scene with this guy."
To marry the first guy who does say, "Will you marry me?"
To see these five people.
To see this couple get together.
To sort of go, "Oh, this is so ..."
Tom Selleck, everybody.
Tonight, the cast is taping the last episode
Transponster's not right.
Try to get David. David has quit television.
Try... Try the bottom one.
Trying to make a living and find love.
Turn.
Ugly naked guy's apartment.
Uh oh.
Um, yeah, yeah, it was really, really good.
Until my daughter just started watching it this past year.
Vee loves "Friends."
Very down to earth, real people.
Very special involved in the show
Wait a minute. I saw that on the Discovery Channel.
Wait, wait. ♪ Your one and only boyfriend ♪
Wait, wait. Do it one more time.
Wait, what happened? I don't remember you tripping.
Wait. Hang on.
Wait. You mean we...
Waiting for you.
Want to perform their favorite dance.
Was it real?
Was there anything that you didn't like
Was we would all have choreographed,
Was when we were shooting in London
Wasn't there a decision to lose this?
Watch this for power. Wait there.
Way to keep it positive.
We are not waiting so long to have a dinner.
We assured him that whatever his past experience was,
We became best friends who...
We became fans of "Friends"
We can talk to Phoebe.
We can throw this ball back and forth?
We couldn't do anything about it.
We did the huddle right here.
We didn't do it?
We didn't think we could make it.
We didn't want stars.
We drew on relatives of ours and friends of ours
We ended up with an impromptu party
We ever did that's shot in real time like a play.
We expanded it from just a "one night in London" thing
We get your apartment.
We got some time.
We had a tight circle of friends.
We had amazing guest stars on our show.
We had seen David for another role
We had worked with Matthew Perry on "Dream On."
We had... were crushing on each other?"
We have to get it out. It's eating me alive.
We have to say something.
We just have to find a way to do it
We just let them go.
We knew there was a character there
We knew. We knew.
We know it. We know it.
We love "Friends."
We loved it because they loved us.
We met with Courteney Cox, and she explained to us
We named Chandler after a friend of mine.
We never got out of the chairs?
We realized there's more to this
We really were intrigued with the idea
We saw a bunch of women who read Phoebe,
We saw a lot of guys who you believed were actors,
We saw approximately a gazillion people.
We saw lots and lots and lots of other women.
We shot it three times, and it went perfectly.
We smashed it, remember?
We still thought maybe it'd be fun with them doing it in secret
We still, at that point,
We wanted to know that Monica and Chandler
We were both crushing hard on each other,
We were doing a show, and we were working really hard.
We were having a tough time finding Monica,
We were inseparable, all of us.
We were just standing there going "This is insane."
We were like, "Do we need to do the huddle?"
We were scared and alone.
We were two miles from the house.
We would have had to reshoot
We would spoon and fall asleep on the couch.
We'd have to go again because the monkey
We're engaged!
We're following all of their stories equally,
We're going back a little further.
We're gonna take questions from the audience.
We're here now, all six of you.
We're like, "Well, we can shoot out the other scenes."
We've got to give them what they want.
Wearing all of Chandler's clothes,
Well, do you guys have to go to the new house right away
Well, first of all, I had a graveyard of failed pilots.
Well, I mean, David?
Well, I never thought I'd say this,
Well, I've never done that with you before.
Well, it's not like I went to Spain.
Well, maybe we could do another episode,
Well, tell me which one. I'll try to slip it in my coat.
Well, that is because your eye immediately
Well, that was before it got destroyed.
Well, then you should have said something before I met her.
Well, we do.
Well, you said I had to give you the chair.
Well, you would've just been great actors.
Were gonna have their babies.
Were Ross and Rachel on a break?
Were the other five.
What about that? What a treat.
What an absolute thrill.
What are you doing?
What are you guys doing here?
What are you quacking about?
What did Chandler do for a living?
What do you remember about that time?
What do you remember about the audition process?
What I did not take into account was being back on the set...
What I would consider to be a cheeky question?
What if we have to pee?
What is Chandler Bing's job?
What is Monica's biggest pet peeve?
What is that?
What name appears on the address label?
What was it about "Friends" that attracted you to it?
What we were going through except the other five.
What were you doing when your arm came out of the socket?
What?
What's back here?
What's going on?
When Chandler goes to the toilet,
When did you knock?
When did you start to feel like those changes
When I got her hooked on it, I was like,
When I was in elementary school.
When I'm missing the kids, when I'm missing the family,
When it was made clear that you could do the show?
When my agent called me and said,
When she looks up, she's startled to see Ross
When they would laugh at something,
When till you get a load of this next line."
When we came back for a second season,
When we get together and have dinners.
When we had breaks from rehearsal,
When we traded... when we lost the apartment.
When we were in first year in college.
When you finally got to meet them,
When you look back, who had the loudest laugh?
When your friends are your family,
When your friends are your family.
When's your birthday?
Where are Monica and Chandler?
Where did Janice come from?
Where do you think your characters would be today?
Where everybody just stayed on set and sat there,
Where in just hours, the show that made TV must see must end.
Where is everyone?
Where is the waitress? I'm starving.
Where it seemed like down the...
Where it wasn't going to be these six people.
Where it's just the six of them,
Where Ross has decided not to pay for
Where they're all getting ready in the apartment.
Where we cast no one.
Where we're about to do something really funny.
Where you guys were throwing a ball back and forth
Where you shot the opening credits.
Where?
Where?
Where... Where did...
Where's Rachel?
Wherever we were,
Which I thought I had watched.
Which sister is this?
Which was always the fear.
Which we felt like we hadn't seen before.
While that show was still on television.
While you were shooting the show?
Who couldn't be here tonight
Who gets the points for that?
Who had the loud... Oh, really?
Who were a little different and all the other kids
Who were just a little different, you know?
Whoa!
Whoa.
Why she didn't think she was a Rachel
Why would you erase it?
Will the mystery voice please make himself known?
With a hint of Phoebe.
With our very own "Friends" reunion fashion show.
With these jokes that don't make sense.
With, you know, just a group of friends?"
Without building new sets, without, you know.
Women who come in wearing actual wedding dresses
Wouldn't you pay good money to see these identical hands
Wow ee.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Yay!
Yay!
Yeah, 'cause you didn't have to touch it.
Yeah, baby.
Yeah, but that quiz was really fun and really devastating.
Yeah, don't get too excited.
Yeah, I just remember that's when we all met
Yeah, it really is. The whole thing.
Yeah, Matty!
Yeah, no, we stay in touch for sure.
Yeah, no. Jen never cries.
Yeah, noisy boys.
Yeah, so do you.
Yeah, that is the answer.
Yeah, that part I know. But it was... I was...
Yeah, the first season, we...
Yeah, the one with the embryos.
Yeah, the point is, I I don't need this right now, okay?
Yeah, there was a lot of crying that night.
Yeah, we knew for sure.
Yeah, we were on a break.
Yeah, yeah, we said nobody knows.
Yeah, you've gone crazy.
Yeah!
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. About jellyfish and how if y...
Yeah. Also at my age to be, say, like,
Yeah. Because our family couldn't relate.
Yeah. That's right.
Yeah. When I do watch the episodes,
Yes, and that was my proudest moment.
Yes, I do.
Yes, I thought this was gone.
Yes, that is correct.
Yes, there's a lady right here.
Yes?
Yes.
Yes. There's a couple here in the audience here.
Yes. What's your question?
Yetis are smooth talkers.
Yetis are smooth talkers.
You all owe me a cat and a waffle.
You apologized to the people you were with,
You are so cute.
You better hurry up and fill out an application,
You can just sort of put away feelings
You can't live without me.
You can't say that. You don't know.
You could see a lot of the beginnings of Phoebe there,
You didn't really fall in love, and you needed to,
You didn't say anything about the cushions.
You do a pilot a year and you have some cash.
You don't remember what I was wearing?
You even reacted to that like Phoebe.
You gonna eat that steak or argue with it?
You guys ate lunch together every day.
You had no right to tell me you ever had feelings for me.
You had to do shows that weren't gonna cost a fortune
You had... I don't remember what episode it was.
You hide my clothes, I'm wearing everything you own.
You know what's nuts? Oh, really?
You know, "Friends" brought friends together.
You know, and it's not like I didn't...
You know, from Jordan to India, they knew what "Friends" was.
You know, I got the audition sides across my fax machine,
You know, I travel a lot
You know, I was laughing in that scene.
You know, like... like Italian guys
You know, Lisa playing guitar up there,
You know, right here. Of course he's Joey."
You know, we respected that.
You look at it and go, "What is that old, crappy ..."
You love me, Chandler Bing.
You really threw up some good answers there.
You seek me out.
You still got it.
You think it's easy for me to see you with Julie?
You think of the one, the only Justin Bieber.
You tripped every time. You wouldn't look.
You want me, you need me,
You want to get something to eat?
You want to go for me sitting on Matty's lap?
You were being Phoebe. And jeans.
You... You peed on yourself?
You're very, very kind.
Your "butt" mitzvah?
2 or 3.

Animals dressed as humans. That's correct.

Because I was sitting there. But then you left.

But, man, that was something. Yeah, we were really
Can I get you anything else? No, thanks. We're fine.
Chandler and Monica! Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Cut! He told me to say it.

I remember... Oh, my gosh. Ben Stiller.
I think it's 2. You think it's 2?
I wish he would Why not?
I would freak out. It would take you down.
I... It was reciprocated.
I... that blew me away. That's what I remember.
I'm gonna start crying. Yeah.
Is it gone? It's gone, it's gone.
Is it gone? No, it's right there.
is they're so good with farce. What the hell was that?
It kept, like... Got in the way.
It was crazy. Bye!

That's the answer. That's what I just said.
The ball thing. Yeah?
The best laugh. I can't help it.
The monkey scared me. I loved the monkey.
The monkey. And the monkey.

We love you. That's incredibly sweet.

You have to grow up. Well, let me ask you this.
You just... Sat with that person.
You looked so disappointed. Well, it's okay.
You looked. I used the corner...
You need some help? Yeah, I mean, I think so.
You're blue? I don't... I never looked down.

Your fella Brad. Pitt came, did one.
Your something. Ross.

...the sets immediately started to be taken down
...to off, you know?
...together on a stage for the first time in years.
'Cause I don't need your stupid ship.
'cause I'm mortified with myself.
'cause if you had and it didn't work out,
'cause it was me doing it.
'cause the original plan was
'cause you needed to feel what Ross was feeling.
"'Cause I don't want anything else falling off me."
"According to Monica, how many erogenous zones
"Do you want to play
"Friends" really had a big hand in teaching me English,
"Friends" was TV's number one comedy for six straight seasons,
"Friends" was...
"Hey, guys, I'm finally retiring from ophthalmology
"How did not everyone know
"I shit here." That's right.
"It's going to be such a bummer if the first time you and I

"Mission accomplished."
