“Timing Is Everything”: Lisa Kudrow Finds Note Left By Matthew Perry Inside ‘Friends’ Cookie Jar…
Lisa Kudrow revealed that she recently discovered a note left by the late Matthew Perry inside the Friends cookie jar he gifted her after the show’s finale in January 2004. While Lisa did not disclose the note’s contents, she did reflect on the timing of finding it.
“Matthew gave that to me at the end of our last episode,” Lisa told Drew Barrymore on Tuesday (January 7), appearing in an episode of The Drew Barrymore Show.
Drew had asked Lisa if she had stolen anything from the set of Friends, to which the actress teased that she had, but she didn’t want to say what.
As a result, the host wondered about the fate of the “Cookie Time” jar from the popular sitcom, prompting Lisa to confess to the heartwarming discovery.
“I had recently found the note that he had in it for me,” she explained. “I hadn’t opened it up or looked inside of it. But yeah, he did. He had a note in there and I forgot about it. Timing is everything.”
The 61-year-old Hollywood star previously revealed that the “Cookie Time” jar had been a “wrap gift” from Matthew during a 2020 interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
“I mean we were laughing hysterically and crying because it was the end [of the show],” Lisa said at the time of her response to the gift.
The late actor had gifted the prop to his costar in an ode to a scene from an early episode of the show, where Lisa, who played Phoebe Buffay, realized she wasn’t wearing a watch for a scene that she needed to be, so she referred to the cookie jar as a clock, People reported on Tuesday.
Lisa reportedly recalled being skeptical of how Matthew got the jar to gift it, as she said: “The first thing I asked was, ‘This is so nice. Did you get permission?’
“I mean, my car used to get searched every night when I left.”
The cookie jar on Friends was a decorative prop often seen in Monica Geller’s (Courteney Cox) kitchen, the central hangout spot for the group throughout the show, which aired from 1994 to 2004.
In the Season 4 episode The One with Chandler in a Box, which aired in 1997, Chandler Bing (Matthew) used the jar as part of a humorous moment to prove his loyalty to Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc).
The jar became a nostalgic keepsake for the cast, symbolizing the close bond they shared during the iconic sitcom’s 10-year run.
