He’s had a pretty long history with prescription medication IIRC - I’m not sure if that’s still the case

Ah that's very sad, I know he was in a few films after and he seemed OK but he's definitely a different person now to when Friends was filming

Yeah he's had on-and-off problems with prescription painkiller addiction. He was in a jet-ski accident, apparently, so was on them legitimately but got hooked. I think the season where he was "working away" in Oklahoma was actually because he was in rehab.

I think he's OK now but you can definitely see the toll it's taken.

He said himself that he can’t remember filming 3 series of the show or something

I also didn't know that Matt LeBlanc was injured on set with that shoulder dislocation. I remember the "falling off the bed" scene from when it aired though - it was so obvious that it had been shoehorned in there to cover up a real injury .

I watched the reunion with my 21 year old daughter tonight, I watched Friends from the beginning when I was 16 and she knew more about it than I did

[rusticgal]

Going to watch it tomorrow....my son watched it...both my sons grew up with it. He said I’m going to love it and it’s going to make me cry...but then it doesn’t take much to make me cry

[Nicky91]

will be broadcasted in my nation too this weekend

[Daniel.]

It was gorgeous.

People who don't like friends are weird

[Babayaro.]

Loved it

[James]

I cancelled Now TV so I can't watch.

She was born in 86, of course she was “around”

i just watched it, wish i hadn't if i'm honest. It's pretty clear a lot of them don't now get on with each other. Makes you wonder if they ever did

Who did you think didn't get on? I didn't get that impression at all

Mathew was definitely not in the group, which is unfortunate as he was probably my favourite of the lot of them and lisa said, yeah we are in touch all the time and everyone looked at her like what? I remember Jennifer in the past saying she never spoke to any of them

I'd say by the looks of Matthew probably lost touch with a lot of people, poor guy looks like he had his struggles

I thought Jennifer and Courtney were close?

It was reported they have not all been together in the same room since Friends ended, that doesn’t sound too healthy

I have never watched all eps of friends

To be fair, it's not that they haven't individually seen each other or even in smaller groups seen each other, just not all together at the same time. I think that's fairly common with old groups of friends. Heck, I can't actually remember the last time me, my dad and my sister were in the same room . A good 3 or 4 years ago. Though we regularly visit(ed, pre-covid ) my sister and my dad quite regularly drives up to see the kids (again pre covid ).

Anyway, my point I guess is that just because they haven't all been together as a group, doesn't mean they don't individually keep in touch. Some more than others I imagine. A few of them have worked together on smaller things (guest appearances in each other's shows etc.) and I think the three girls see each other.

I agree that Matthew Perry seemed the most like "an outsider" on the night but actually I'm not sure that's the case - I think what was coming across was that he was the least comfortable being there, but I don't think that was necessarily about the other cast... he just seemed a bit anxious and self-conscious during the "live" part which can manifest as aloofness/distance. During the "on the set" parts he seemed more comfortable, especially when it was just him and Matt.

Yeah, the Matthew stuff seems like he's full of anxiety being on camera/in front of an audience in general, especially given all the stuff he spoke about.

6 people who worked closely for a few years, moving on to marriages, kids, other jobs, living all over the world. I'd have found it strange if they did find time for all 6 of them to be together very often.

They've all been in touch, just not very often the entire group at once. Sounds fairly ordinary.

So what? She still was around to watch the show and even if she wasn't my 21 year old daughter wasn't around when it aired and she's a bigger fan than me

I was just clarifying what he meant, that's all. Unless he actually meant she wasn't alive when the show was airing, in which case he can't be that stupid.

Because she was a child? What on Earth
