F.R.I.E.N.D.S is not just a sitcom, but an emotion for many. Even amidst the lockdown times, even after it has been years since the show ended, more often than not, it pops up in Netflix’s Top 10. Even while the reunion special episode‘s telecast draws nearer, the main cast opened up about what it was like to shoot together after so many years to People magazine.
“This cast in these roles and the collaborative spirit that the writers kind of invited where we all were playing at the same level, at the highest level I think, in terms of sitcom, that we could play at. I think it was a dream come true for all of us, and I think we realised it really early on,” David Schwimmer was quoted as saying.
“We ate lunch every day together, the three of us. We never went off our separate ways and we always wanted to hang (out together), and that made ten years incredible,” Courtney Cox, who played Monica Geller, said of the times spent on the sets.
David let it slip that the group doesn’t meet as often as they would like to, but when they do, it is always great. “When we do get together, it is like no time has passed. We pick up right where we left off. It’s heartfelt, it is honest and it is open,” the actor who played Ross Geller said.
Jennifer Aniston said, “It is still to me the greatest job I have ever had. We are connected till death do us apart, no matter what.”
F.R.I.E.N.D.S reunion streams on HBO Max from May 27.
